There are 2 ways how to setup your Rackspace email on your iPhone with the Native iPhone email app. With Mobile Sync and without Mobile Sync.

1. Mobile Sync: Connect Email, Contacts, Calendar and Notes
2. Without Mobile Sync: Email only

Note: For a iPhone, you will use the iPhone native mail app (which we recommend putting on your iPhone dock... aka the Grey Home bar at the bottom of a iPhone). The iPhone native iPhone app looks like this:

1. Mobile Sync

Mobile Sync is for connecting your Email, Contacts, Calendar and Notes (you can individually select the ones you want or all of them). Here are iPhone instructions how to set it up.

To Setup Non Mobile Sync, go to your iPhone Settings app:
