The iPhone -- a range of Internet-equipped smartphones designed and sold by Apple -- has access to the Internet via Wi-Fi and cellular data networks, allowing you to send and receive email whenever a signal is available. In order to send email, the iPhone's email app requires you to enter the details of your account's Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) server. When checking more than one email account from the iPhone, multiple SMTP servers may be required for sending email. Removal of unused SMTP servers can be achieved through the iPhone's Settings app.
