I am trying to enter my ukonline email settings, but when ever it connects it comes up with;
"Messages cannot be downloaded to your mobile device, make sure you are connected and that your email account settings are correct"
I have put it as POp3, and pop3.ukonline.co.uk and the SMTP as smtp.o2.co.uk
any ideas what I am doing wrong?
your help is appreciated.

I have had no trouble sending and receiving e-mail when I am connected to the servers of my ISP. That is, dial-in ISP, to which I connect via cell phone, where the pop server and the smtp server belong to the ISP where I also have my e-mail account.
The moment I connect via GPRS, all I can do is download my e-mail. When I try to send, I get all sorts of error messages stating that the servers could not resolve the recipients' names. Is there a way around this? :?: Do I need to specify a proxy. How does anyone else connect via GPS and send e-mail from their regular ISP POP account?
i have the same problem
so far i've used the workaround which is
that my isp (which is not my cellphone gprs isp but my cable isp)
have a www mail gateway so i can use IE to login to that and send my mails that way
Yeah! I do that, but when I reach the web mail page and try to click open an e-mail, nothing happens. So that is a dead end for me! There has to be a way around the SMTP issue. We'll figure it out!
Hi
Are you using the smtp address of your pop3 provider or your gprs provider?
My xda ii is connected via an orange uk sim and i use it to both send and receive email from my o2 and blueyonder accounts. In order to send from these accounts i have to use the smtp address of orange ie smtp.orange.net rather than the smtp addresses of my pop3 providers.
Hope this helps

Indeed it would help if I only had a means to find out the smtp server for my cell phone service provider. Believe me, I've tried and no one ate Telecom Italia Mobile (TIM) has a clue as to what I am talking about. I tried smtp.tim.br and smtp.tim.com.br but neither worked
Any clues...?
try something like relay.tim.it or they should have some data support.
According to an NSLOOKUP against their domain name, their primary mailserver is smtp1.tim.com.br - try that.
Fork.
Hi everyone!
Fidlling with the smtp settings, I finally found out how to send mail over a GPRS connection using your ISP's pop mail account.
Everyboy, when set up an account, must fill in the pop.ispserver.com and the smtp.ispserver.com. It so happens that using the GPRS smtp (those who have one) or using pop relay, is trcky and does NOT work! The solution is:
1. Goto Inbox
1.1. Select Accounts
2. Select the account you want to edit (presumably the account you been able to download e-mail but didn`t allow you to send e-mail)
3. Enter you POP mail e-mail address (step 1/4)
4. Enter user info (name, user and password) (step 2/4)
5. Enter account info (type is POP3 and name will be grayed) (step 3/4)
6. Server Information (step 4/4) critical step
- fill in your pop account info (pop.ispserver.com)
- fill in your smtp account info (smtp.ispserver.com)
- leave domain blank!
6.1. Click Options and don`t check anything! Goto step 2/3
6.2. Select (checkmark) outgoing e-mail server requires authentication
- Do NOT check Require SSL connection
- Select Only display messages from the last X days, if you want
Click NEXT and you are good to go!!!
It worked fine for me with TIM in Brazil and Cingular in the US! Some POP3 services don`t allow this kind of connection!
Hey guys, I have a softbank phone with the Black 2.0 ROM on it. I've been able to receive emails, but I'm not able to send them from the phone. My email account is through roadrunner, and I have the proper pop-server/smtp-server settings on the phone, but I keep getting an error saying "550 5.7.1 <email address I was sending it to> Relaying denied"
Has anyone else had this issue before? Anyone have any clue as to what it is I am doing wrong? I'm on the T-Mobile network and I have GPRS setup correctly and I am able to go on websites. So I don't think it's because I'm not getting a connection, but something else. Any help on this is greatly apprecaited guys, thanks
Sounds like an SMTP authentication issue. See if you can find the Tmobile SMTP server and set it to send through that, which should work as you are on a Tmobile connection (asuming your forum details are still correct)
Failing that check with roadrunner to see what authentication you need set up to use their SMTP server. I use Googlemail and you have to have SSL authentication set up with your username and password to be able to send through their server.
AAhhh....thats right, I had to do the same thing with the email app on my previous Sony ericsson M600i. Thanks for the reply and the help, I appreciate it
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?

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?

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.
I can't seem to get my yahoo email accounts to work when I try to set them up on the email app. Any idea what can be wrong or what I can do?
I had this problem as well, it wouldn't automatically set up so I put in the mail servers manually. To do so type in your email and password then select manual setup. Choose IMAP as the option after that and then set the incoming mail server to imap.mail.yahoo.com and then select next and then set the outgoing mail server to smtp.mail.yahoo.com and then select next then go through the rest of the set up and you should be good, worked for me.
Still can't get it to work keeps telling me my password or username is incorrect.
Are you sure that you have switched off any wifi connection on the phone? It will not connect over wifi but over your phone 3g/g connection.
Hello everyone. I cannot figure out how to add my second email to my droid. I have it rooted with the liberty 1.5 rom and figured out how to do the hotmail but my other pop3 I cannot figure out.
Here is the instructions from the website.
PC Client Setup Information:
POP3 (inbound mail) Server: mail.ar15.com
SMTP (outbound mail) Server: mail.ar15.com
- User name and password are case sensitive.
- Your password must be 4-16 characters long.(alpha-numeric)
- For security, we require authentication for outbound (SMTP) mail. check "MY SERVER REQUIRES AUTHENTICATION" in your mail client under server settings.
- Please set the email check timer to be 10 minutes or more.
I enter in all of my info but cannot find any part where It asks for the SMTP. Under security type I see
none
SSL
SSL (accept all certs)
TLS
TLS (accept all certs)
I can get passed the ingoing email screen but when it comes to the outgoing email screen I get this message: Unable to open connection to server
Any help? I had it set up before I rooted but not cannot get it dialed in.
Thanks
No one?
Please help as this is super important I get it working..
I would go back in to settings>accounts> and click on that account. then select outgoing server, and try it without verifiy certificate, then if that doesnt work, try it without authentication.

Bump Thanks
