Same experience. I deleted the email account and had the phone automatically estblish a new email account and it returned to my previous settings.  Verizon either owes me a fix or a new phone of equal quality without a new contract.

The pop 995 and 465 only works while in Naples Florida but not in NJ

Here's my experience to-date:

Updated my iPhone 4 (running latest iOS) to new settings and got a warning message that mail might not work. It didn't. I had to change the incoming server back to 'incoming.verizon.net' to be able to download email. The outgoing server settings worked fine.

Email in Outlook 2010 is working fine with the new settings per Verizon.

Haven't tried updating the settings on our iPad.......

Are these changes really necessary - do they actually make a difference in my life aside from forcing me to spend time trying to sort out what works (or doesn't) on which device????

Thanks!

The old settings do not use the new port settings as listed.  110 and 25 are the old ports.

Problem solved!  After updating to the new settings on my Apple iphone, I was unable to send emails, and was receiving the error indicating "server does not allow relay."  The key is to include your username and password on the smtp settings.  When updating the email account on my laptop, there is an option in Outlook to "use same settings as my incoming mail server."  However, on my iphone, I had to go ahead and type the same info that I entered on the Incoming Mail Server

Select:  Settings

Select:  Mail, contacts, calendar

Select:  Verizon

Account:  On

Name:  (Your name)

Email:  (your email address)

Description:  Verizon

Host Name:  pop.verizon.net

User Name:  (your user name)

Password:  (your password)

Go down and select:  "Advanced"

Deleted Messages:  Remove after one week

Income settings:  Use SSL "On"

Select:  "Authentication" and choose "Password."  Then go back  to "Advanced"

Delete from server:  Never

Server port:  995

Then, go back to "Verizon"

Outgoing Mail Server

Select:  SMTP

Primary server

Select:  outgoing.verizon.net so that you can update it to:  smtp.outgoing.net

Server:  "On"

Host Name:  smtp.verizon.net

User Name:  (your user name)

Password:  (your password)

Use SSL "On"

Select:  "Authentication" and choose "Password."  Then go back to "smtp.verizon.net"

Server port:  465 

Click "Done"  Then, go back  to "Verizon"

On Verizon POP account screen, click "done."

Hope it works for you.

I changed the settings on my iphone and ipad as requested by Verizon.  I lost ALL of my emails on both!  Fortunately, my emails have also gone to Outlook 2010 on my PC.  I'm petrified at the thought of losing them on my PC as well so I haven't made the switch.  I've received two more letters and a robocall from Verizon about this necessary change, so I'm sure it's looming.  Has anyone had experience making this switch with your Outlook 2010?

When enter the information, I am getting a message that there is something wrong with the POP3  This is very frustrating because need this service but you are making it very difficult.  Please help me because I pay way too much to be aggrivated with the changes of the system not working.

Thanks for writing up this PERFECT procedure.

My iPad 2 running iOS 7.0.4 is also SET UP EXACTLY THE SAME WAY
