We can't tell you what you are doing wrong without knowing what you are doing. What settings are you using?

I first deleted my original account. I than did the following steps> 1. add account 2. click other 3. click add mail account 4. I typed my full email address 5. host name - pop.verizon.net 6. user name - full email address. same for outgoing / smtp.verizon.net / user name - full email adress. it then says verifying. It spins for quite a while before the message is generated: can not connect using SSL? so I dont know where to go to turn on SSL and check port as shown on other responses on how to download. Any help is greatly appreciated. thanks!

prisaz,
Thank you for posting this.
The Incoming Mail Server > Select Authentication step is what I was missing. And you're right the Verizon support folks were completely clueless about how to help. The best they could do was give me the number to Apple Support.
However, I consider this to be a FAILURE on the part of Verizon. They are asking me to change settings required for their service, so I think they should have made some effort to work with Apple to provide useful information for how to change those settings.
Again, just my opinion but, I see this as a Verizon Support Failure.
Thank you again.
Dave

GBs, I'm having the same issue with my iphone 4S. I make the changes and it goes into a verifying loop that never stops. I go back to the old settings and it works fine. Same thing happened a month ago when I tried it then.

Ok, now it's working. Follow the directions exactly including Authentication = Password, it will go into a verifying loop for about 10 mins and it was done. It refreshed and marked all of the emails as unread, but it's working fine now.
