Configure IITM's CSE Department mail on Andriod

Warning: This post is now obsolute/out of date. As CSE Department@IITM has moved to GSuite June 2019. 
Configure just like you conffgure your Gmail/Smail.

Going to follow K.I.S.S policy. DIY seeing snapshots below. That's it. Thanks! 
Caution: Don't change any default ports.. Just edit the server and security type alone as below. Email-ID = DCF_USERNAME@cse.iitm.ac.in
Step 1- Open Gmail App> Settings>Add account>   IMAP/POP3(or Choose IMAP) > Email-ID/Password > IMAP  (I have choosen IMAP. But it should naturally work  for both)
Step 2(In settings)- Email ID > Password>csemail.iitm.ac.in > SSL/TSL (Accept all cert).
Step 3(Out settings)- Email ID> Password>csemail.iitm.ac.in > STARTTLS (Accept all cert)

P.S.
