Zusammenfassung:	Method and apparatus for provisioning an e-mail service to a mobile terminal in an e-mail system that uses e-mail addresses comprising a domain part. The apparatus maintains a list of good setting parameter sets versus e-mail domain parts. It receives (502) an e-mail address and user authentication information from a user and compares (502) the domain part of the received address with domain parts in the list of good parameter sets. If a match is found, e-mail service is provisioned with the matching parameter set. If no match is found, the apparatus requests and receives (510) further parameters from the user, including an e-mail server address, and provisions (512) the e-mail service with the further parameters. If the provisioning with the further parameters is successful, the domain part and the further parameters are used to generate (518) a new setting parameter set in the list of good setting parameter sets.
