3. Verify that the email address and password are correct.
On your Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 web browser, navigate to your email provider's website and try to sign in to your email account.
If you're unable to sign in, double-check that you entered the correct username and password.
If you recently updated your email account password, you also must update the email settings on your device.
4. Double-check that you have set up your email account correctly on your Samsung Galaxy Tab S6.
Be sure that you've entered the exact settings for each email account you want to access. The instructions are different depending on the type of email account you're trying to set up.
This is the most common scenario and includes all major public email providers such as Yahoo!, Hotmail, Gmail, and AOL.
Many companies provide a Microsoft Exchange email address to their employees.
Sprint recommends that you contact your IT department for the correct setup information. You'll need your server address, domain, username, and your corporate password.
After you have this information,set up the Microsoft Exchange account. If your Exchange account still doesn't work, contact your corporate IT department for more help.
5. Perform a soft reset.
A soft reset reconnects your device to the Sprint Mobile network:
Note: To optimize device performance, be sure your Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 is running the most recent device software. Check for software updates.
