sending e-mail - Networking

help required....i live in ireland, and use the oceanfree ip provider for e-mail. however i cannot send e-mail using oceanfree.smtp. on the oceanfree site...it says as part of anti spam measures, the server requires u to log in and check ur mail before u can send mail. however my e mail client tries to send before recieving. is there any workaround, or is there a better mail client?

Try using your cell phone carriers smtp instead if they have one.
Example if your carrier is T-Mobile you would use: myemail.t-mobile.com
and if it was AT&T you would use pdasmtp.attwireless.net
Note: If your carrier doesn't have a SMTP server do a web search for a free SMTP server., I know there are some out there.

Receiving corporate email

Hello:
I can dial into my company network using my XDA and dialup, ok. Does anyone know how I can receive my corporate emails? I suspect I need some software for the XDA which can access MS-exchange servers, is there any such out there?
thanks
corporate mail
all i can tell you is the way we do it at our company. exchange has web access so to access our corporate mail the address would be
http://mailserver.*****.**.uk
type in your login and password and bob's your auntie.
no special software required.

Hmmm. I gave it a try, no luck. maybe it is blocked by our firewall. :-(
POP server
I can do my corporate e-mails trough a pop3 server, and with the nice patch I can do my private e-mails trough a hotmail http account.
works perfect
So check if you have a pop3 mailserver account.
Similarly I check my corporate Exchange server with Pocket Outlook using IMAP4 (can get folders other than Inbox). I also get my Yahoo email using POP3.
Hmm - no idea how to use IMAP4 or how to get them through e pop3 server.
I don't know much about how mail works, i just usually collect it and send it. details on how to set these two possible solutions would be most welcome.

Why don't you ask the IT dept ?
At my work place, I can access email remotely though the web interface of Exchange / Outlook. I still have to be connected the RAS service here though as the server is not advertised on the internet.

Hmmm
the problem with that is two things...
the XDA is not a company issue thing, so they will probably not like me doing this.
Our it dept is ridiculously crap.
Icarusbop
Icarusbop are you useing vodaphone on your xda ii
Yes, I am using vodafone. I have a company mobile, calls are paid for by company, so I obviously wanted to use the voda card in my XDA II
if you got an exchange server, you can add activesync and outlook mobile access with server 2003 and get your email auto updated thru text messaging. I have the whole set up hosted out of my apartment

Help! Can't send emails. 'Invalid message recipients'

Hi,
Can't seem to send any emails from my Tiscali account. Downloading emails is fine, but it will not send anything, and replies with:
(Subject)
System Administrator
Invalid Message Recipients
(Email Content)
Your message 'message title' was not sent and has been moved to the drafts folder.
The following recipients are invalid:
'recipients email'
Whats going on?!?!!
Cheers

I had this problem too to start with..
I got round it by using the Outgoing mail server as smtp.t-email.co.uk
I use that for NTL mail.
Also, make sure that you have the option for 'Outgoing mail requires authentication' is you need it.
I use this for all my other pop3 mail accounts.
Hope that does it for you
ohh...That's for T-mobile however..
No joy Im afraid. Changed to 'Outgoing mail requires authentification'....same response. Even tried smtp.t-email.co.uk :wink: but still nothing....thanks anyway though.
Anyone got the answer???
HPJ
this is to do with your smtp server's security settings. You must use the smtp server provided by whoever is connecting you. In this case if it's t-mobile 3G or gprs, then you must use correct t-mobile smtp server. You will then very likely find that it fails when you send mail via your PC activesync as your PC is connected to the internet via your BT ADSL account (or whatever) which has not been allowed by t-mobile. get the plot?
not really...I'm afraid I am a total novice at this stuff....in fact I'm surprised I have got this far!
It is a tiscali account. I have used all the tscali settings as requested, and as worked on my xda2s. For some reason it just doesnt work on my exec.
HPJ
In my experience, if you're using an O2 then it should be
smtp.o2.co.uk for the outgoing server....try it with authentication ON and OFF and see which works. I can't remember off-hand as I haven't really used any of my XDA's for outgoing mail, only incoming.
Cheers
Ant
cheers ant, I'll give it a go a little later and let you know......fingers crossed...
HPJ
yep, I've been messing around with settings, and now I cant even send emails from my Tiscali account on my PC.
I give up. :evil:
The real irony is that I own an IT Consultancy company .........note the word 'own'....not 'work in'.....hence my complete incompetence with IT. Where the hell are my consultants when you need em eh?!?!?!
I'm your friendly neighbourhood it consultant
It doesn't matter what you are connected to to receive e mails. ie you could be on NTL and receive by e mails & vice verca
When you are sending e mails it is a diffent story.
If you are on NTL you have to use the NTL smtp address & if you are on BT you have to use your BT smtp address
o2 is smtp.o2.co.uk
Just tested it on mine & it works
& if u still have probs with your home one.
I'll guide u through that.
Just add me to msn

mate, thank you very much, that's a very kind offer. I will try again and see what happens, and post my (hopefully successful) results soon.
cheers
HPJ
Crossed fingers
Just set your outoing mail server to whatever connection you are using to send the mail. The golden rule.
If you have setup your connection to work via GPRS, you will find it wont send mail when connected to WI-FI as its using a different connection and the outgoing mail server would have to be changed
I'VE FINALLY DONE IT!!!!
thanks everyone for your help. I'd like to say that will be my last dumb ass question, however I have a feeling it won't be!
cheers

Problems sending emails via exchange server

Hi All,
I have just purchased a QTEK 9100 running WM5 and have configured up my Push Mail to connect to my company's Exchange email server. I am able to download emails from my company's email server but am not able to send emails and I get the message "invalid receipt address". Currently I am connecting to the internet via ActiveSync... Would appreciate if someone can advise if I am doing something wrong here...
Thanks in advance.
I don't use push email, but are you using the right smtp address? you usually have to go via the phone operators smtp first.

thanks for reply! Yes I normally set up smtp using the phone operators' smtp but I need to do this even when I am connected via wifi or through laptop?

Different incoming/outgoing .com email server settings

i just joined up with this domain register that i thought had free POP3 EMAIL where can get mail on my xv6700. Well they have it set up where you can receive email on there but they want you to use the outbound mail server of your isp. The thing is how so i set this up cause when i try using verzion or comcast it wont send any email out. GOD I CANT BELIEVE THIS CRAPPY COMPANY!!!!

Smtp Email problems

Hello,
I have an HTC Ozone. Purchased about 2 months ago. I have been unable to send email through a company mail server since I have got the phone. I can log on and download my messages with no problem. When attempting to send mail I connect to the server but my phone sends no authentication information and I get a message bounced back saying no relay access allowed. I have tried the microsoft fix but my phone would not install it. I am currently using the most current 3VO 6.5 rom, I have also tried the official rom. With all three roms I have been unable to send mail. I have also tried multiple email clients.
I have tried to send mail through our server over wifi with outlook mobile and profimail. Same resault error 504 relay acces denied. I know for a fact our server supports relay access with authentication, I have no problems sending mail with my laptop using my verizion air card.
As i noted earlier I have had this problem from day 1 with stock 6.1 rom, with the official 6.5 rom and with the 3VO rom.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Brian B.
Ok more testing. Tried same account information with my wife's phone same resault. I was thinking verizon was blocking port 25, cause I have tried other outgoing servers. Our IT guy says logs show phone connecting but not sending the login information. This baffles me. As anyone with an ozone had these problems. I have searched all over everything I find says use an alternate smtp server but this doesn't work either. This phone is really making me angry.
Of course, you are using your phone operator SMTP ?
Do you have the same probleme with GMAIL and IMAP protocol ?

What do you mean? I'm sure I have a T-Mob mail account, but I don't use it. I use my Internet provider's SMTP email. I cannot get my folders on my phone, "deletes" don't get sent from my phone, and every once in a while I cannot send email.
Not all pop server work well with pocket outlook. For instance, I cannot get my gmail mails synced correctly using the pop protocole, I need to activate IMAP (that may solve your sent mail issue).
As far as other accounts go, in order to be able to send mails, I need to use my mobile operator SMTP (and username / login), i.e smtp.orange.fr. (still keeping my e-mail provider's pop account, though).
Is you problem permanent (you never manage to send any e-mail) or odd (sometimes it will, sometimes it won't) ?

The sending problem is intermittent, but the folders issue and the deletes issue are permanent. Plus, if I read and/or delete an email from my phone and do not read it on my email server it gets re-sent to my phone as unread mail.
Btw, the incoming server is a POP server, the outgoing server is SMTP.
All right. Although I do not have a precise idea of what your problem is, I would suggest the following:
- Call you provider (T-mobile if I understood well) and ask them what is their smtp server address, and what is your login / password, and try to use this config to send mail.
- Try to switch one of you webmail from pop to imap and to sync your mails using the imap protocol.
Another solution would be transfering all you mails to a live mail account, as these of course are well integrated in WinMo.
