Where am I going wrong?
me too!
i've tried everything i know...please help
Hotmail is not natively supported through the PocketPC POP3 interface. There is apparently a beta program available from these forums which has worked for some.
Personally I would recommend HTTPMail provider 1.0 which has many fans and at only $5.00 seems like a good solution.

on incoming and outgoing, i used MAIL.MSN.COM
on both, even tho its a hotmail account
i seem to sync ok with that
but i cant seem to send, i presume the outgoing is something other that what i have

Check Forum
If you check this forum you will find a very good thread about USING HOTMAIL, from only a few days back then you will find that you have to download and intall a hotmail patch so you can use a hotmail through a pop3 accounts. it also discribes how to set-up your hotmail account
I have done it and works perfect, easy to send and easy to receive
Works for me

I have POP3 setup on my Laptop using Outlook express to access my private email and this works fine. On my QTEK I have configured an IMAP access to my corporate email and this also works just great.
But for weeks I have been trying to access my private email from the QTEK and absolutely nothing. It just says Connecting... and never gets any further.
So my question is what do I put in the Domain field in WM5s Outlook client? I do not have to give it for Outlook Express on my laptop. For my work account (IMAP) I just repeated the incoming mail parameter.
Has anyone else had this sort of problem setting up POP access to an email provider.
Thanks for any advice cheers cjb.
Bluewin POP 3
Quite simple:
Under Messaging create a new account.
Parameters:
- email adress : your adress ([email protected])
- Your name: free to choose, any name
- user name: your email adress ([email protected])
- password: your password
- Account type: POP3
- account name: free to choose, any name
- Incoming mail: pop.bluewin.ch
- Outgoing mail: mail.bluewin.ch
. Domain: leave empty
- finish
Important: after the first screen, messaging tries to look on the net for settings. That does not work. Just click next there.
Cheers

Many thanks hrb - leaving it blank did the trick. I had tried that but had not been patient enough. Over GPRS the Connecting... phase takes ages, then it finally logs in. Again thanks - cjb
Hi guys,
Im having a frustrating time trying to get my outlook to send email. I can receive just fine.
Just a note, my computer sends/receives fine and i use the same settings on computer and phone. I never user activsync because ive never been able to get the linux version to work for me.
My server requires authentication however i get this error when i try to send: "The message(s) could not be sent. Check that you have network coverage
and that your account information is correct. Then try sending again."
If i uncheck the option for authentication, the email bounces as it should saying relay is not allowed.
Im using the same settings as my computer, but I just dont see whats wrong. Im a linux user and built my webserver so i feel like i should be able to figure this out which leads me to thing outlook sucks lol
Any suggestions to try?
James
In 'Edit Server Settings' where it has your User name, Password, and Domain how do you have that set up? when i first did mine i set it up with all three, but it didn't work, and what worked for me was setting the username to be [email protected] leaving the Domain field blank -- so that is something to look into, and if it is different maybe try setting it up the other way just putting your email as the username and the domain in the domain field.
How do i find 'Edit Server Settings'?
In my inbox, i click the Menu button bottom right, click tools and options. then i click on the email account i created, which sends me through all the email settings in the following order.
Note: i never used Outlook email as it never let me specify pop or imap so i added New Account.
Email address -- [email protected]
Your name - james
Account display name -- greyed out
incoming server name lwp.ca
account type -- greyed out (its set to imap)
username -- [email protected]
password
outgoing smtp server: lwp.ca
requires authentication checked
use same user name and password for sending mails checked
Automatic send/receive -- set to manual
download messages set to from the past 30 days
message format : html
message download limit: headers only
download attachments: do not download
I am having the same problem with Alltel PPC6800 and I found out (by tethering with my PC) that some of their IP addresses are listed with Spamhaus.
If I keep trying it will eventually go through when the IP Address switches to one not listed.
Hope it helps?

Ive never tried tethering.. Ive been using the built in wifi or the data service with no luck.. I think its a crippled outlook issue..
Does anyone have suggestions for a free mail client that uses IMAP? If only thunderbird could be used

sorry when you said you use outlook to send i assumed you were using an exchange server -- since you are using IMAP what i said is irrelevant.
When you are at the point where it asks for the outgoing SMTP server, there is a link to 'Advanced Server Settings' at the bottom of the screen. clicking on that will allow you to require SSL for incoming and outgoing -- that would be my only other guess.
but i do find it strange that your incoming and outgoing mail servers are the same and not IMAP.lwp.com and SMTP.lwp.com or something similar.
Setting Pop > Smpt For Hotmail <> Gmail <> Yahoo>> ????? Help Pls Pm
HI I HAVE A DOUBT
I USE HTC P3400
WHEN I USED 2 USE WM5
I WAS EASILY ABLE 2 SET UP EMAIL A/C IN MESSAGE FOLDER
BUT NOW USING WM6.0®
I M NOT ABLE TO GET THOSE A/C SETUP CORRECTLY
PLS HELP
FOR SETTING
A/C OF GMAIL >< Yahoo >< HOTMAIL
PLS TEST AND PM
THE POP AND SMPT SETTINGS
**I GOOGLED BUT FOUND NO SOLUTION **
PLS HELP
Gmail is easy: https://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=78886 , Yahoo I'm not sure about, and hotmail needs windows live (search for the cabs).
Double post... Sorry!
From my auto settings yahoo -
Incoming mail server : imap.mail.yahoo.com
Type: IMAP4
Outgoing : smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com
*Tick both boxed on the pade the outgoing authentication and use same user name and password
Advanded server settings : both boxes unticked and from list 'The Internet'
i'm not sure why yours isn't getting it automatically, but what you would do is just go to email and then click add new account and when it asks for email address just put in the full email and it should get the settings automatically... mine even does comcast.net easily and i use winmo 6.0 pro
im having the same problem as ZENITHJAIN. although i just did what was instructed by l3v5ys post and gmail works yahoo still doesnt work
hi there i just got my HD2 with t-mobile and want to hook up my hotmail.co.uk account. can someone guide me through this
cheers
also, what updates on the HTC website are worth loading onto the phone
Hotmail
Slide to the e-mail icon on the homescreen/menu/add account/other - add your hotmail details. This worked for me.
The Incoming mail server is pop3.live.com
The Outgoing mail server is smtp.live.com
Use your email address and password for access and set up your email as any other.
Mail > Add Account > Other
Then fill in the details carefully. You are then all done.
For hotmail I just put my email and email password and it found all the details for me. It might slow down when it syncs your emails.
i have followed this and it seems to work, but for some reason it constantly pops up and asks for my email and password
Don't settle for pop3, when IMAP works with talk21 and not only does mail get pushed out faster with IMAP, but when you click refresh it will be received faster than pop3.
The other advantage is subfolders are also supported with IMAP but cant be seen with POP3.
This mail feature works with my android eclair & hero phone and the settings are exactly the same for win mobiles also (not tested). The mail setting up roadmap is the same from what i can remember once in the mail feature for win mobi.
This is what you need to do to setup Talk21 email with IMAP.
Incoming server settings
IMAP server - imap.mail.yahoo.com
Port - 143
Security type - none
Outgoing Server settings
SMTP server - smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Port - 25
Security type - none
Also important note - Enable 'require sign-in'
and enter your talk21 username and password
The End...works a treat for me
p.s. Its only taken me 3 years to work it out with win mobile and recently with android. Finally got it to work...hope this helps all the talk21 users out there. if there are any other similar posts out there with no answer...dont forget to mention my name when passing this post around.
RichPie and Tej2020 are both right. Thanks for those posts on the differing forums.
I also found though that some of the older talk21 accounts no matter if you follow those instructions still don't validate the username.
Solution:
Login to your BT Yahoo email account with your [email protected] username and password.
Go to settings and forward your mail (temporarily) to another email account.
You will get a verification email in that account for security.
You'll probably see that the username is not [email protected] but [email protected]
Now here's the trick.
Go back to your BT Yahoo email.
Don't forget to disable the forwarding of email (otherwise you'll never get any new emails in this account).
Logout.
Now try logging in as [email protected] and your usual password.
Same account right?
Follow RichPie's instructions (below) for allowing the email to be POP'ed.
1./ Log into you talk21.com account:
options
Mail options
POP3 & Forwarding
click on "allow forwarding"
Save.
Now in your phone setup your email with
Setting up the mail use these:
Incoming Mail (POP3) Server - mail.btinternet.com
Port - 110
Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - mail.btinternet.com
Port - 25
and crucially, the username and password must be [email protected] with your password as this seems to be a migrated username/password combination on the migration of the talk21 accounts into Yahoo and is a popp'able account.
This should work.
