SSL error

[ThickMike]

Hi
I am trying to set up a CalDAV account to sync my iphone 6 with my BT Yahoo account (***@btinternet.com)
After entering the BT account details, I get a message "Cannot Connect using SSL" with the option of cancelling or continuing without SSL. If I continue without SSL, I get the message "CalDAV account verification failed".

Can someone help please
Btw, I've no idea what SSL is

Hi

SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is the standard security technology for establishing an encrypted link between a web server and a browser. This link ensures that all data passed between the web server and browsers remain private and integral.

I use my iPhone 6 plus with BTMAIL with the same style email address as you.

Are you setting it up as an IMAP account

What is an IMAP account?
Should I be setting it up as one?

If so, how do I do that?

PS. You've probably gathered I'm a technophobe so language an idiot can understand please

I use BTMAIL and have an btinternet.com email address.

When setting this up in an iPhone I chose add account in settings , mail/contacts/calendar

I chose 'other' And proceeded to input my email details.

Is that what your wanting to do ?

[ThickMike]
