Whether you want to set up a personal or work email account, here's a guide on how to configure it on your iPhone.
Step 1: Open the Settings App
On your iPhone's home screen, locate and tap the Settings app. It is represented by a gear icon.

After tapping on "Accounts," you will be presented with a list of existing email accounts linked to your iPhone. At the bottom, you will see the "Add Account" option. Tap on it to add a new email account.
Step 5: Select Your Email Provider
From the list of popular email providers, such as Google, Yahoo, Microsoft Exchange, etc., select the one that corresponds to your email account. If your provider is not listed, tap on "Other" and manually enter the required information.
Step 6: Enter Your Email and Password
In the prompted fields, enter your email address and password associated with the account you are configuring. If you have two-factor authentication enabled, you may need to provide the verification code as well. Once done, tap "Next."
