Mail2web Domain Setting

Does anyone know what the domain is for mail2web exchange server - trying to setup mobile push mail with mail2web cant seem to find what the domain is meant to be!
thanks in advance

I set up with mail2web push email and it works well. I don't think you need to put the domain information in (as it shown grey on my 8525 anyway). However, make sure you have your server address typed correctly as mobile.exchange.mail2web.com. btw, I set that up on Activesync under configure server, not sure that setting works in your situation tho

WM6 or WM5?
the user name settings are different for WM6 and WM5
Domain is still ad2 though...
Server is still mobile.exchange.mail2web.com
You can get your personal settings through the My Email Settings pane (>View ActiveSync Settings)

There is ( or was not checked ) an option to download your settings as a cab just add your password when prompted.

sending email issue

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.

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

You need to list in detail the steps you've already taken as setting up POP email is essentially a trivial exercise and their shouldn't really be an issue in doing so.
One common mistake is to use your ISPs SMTP server for outgoing mail - this generally won't work as typically they are set up not to relay mail from external networks. In this case, you need to use your telecoms providers SMTP server, or a 3rd party open relay.
Regards,
Dave

ok i do this touch mail on main screen
touch pop mail
enter email address and password
hit manual set up and then it gives me pop server
security type and serverport
now i have these as a do in outlook however outlook lets me specify the outgoing mail and incoming mail server as mail.the---------------.co.uk and smtp.the---------------.co.uk
but the phone only allows me to but .the---------------.co.uk
are you saying i shoul put 02.co.uk here instead ?

Once you've set up the POP side of the your connection, you should be prompted to set up the SMTP side of the connection for which you would often use your cellular providers SMTP server (though some ISPs allow authenticated SMTP access from external sources).
What is your mail providers full address as "mail.the---------------.co.uk" doesn't help much to check the settings. You also didn't say what you used for your security type and server port.
Regards,
Dave

thanks dave got it working
i realised that when i entered mail. it then gave me another screen for outgoing and i used smtp and they worked - allset up and raring to go now!
thanks

EMAIL setup for NTLWORLD (Virgin) on O2 please?

Hi there,
I had the EMAIL working ok until Virgin updated their EMAIL setup a couple of months back, but now I seem to be having trouble whatever I try (keeps int deleting EMAIL's + having problems sending/receiving sometimes).
Thanks, Mark.

Check your settings:
Your Name
Your name as you would like it to appear to others when you send them an e-mail. We recommend entering your real name, although any name can be used.
E-mail address
Your Virgin Media e-mail address. Remember that the part after the @ symbol should correspond to your type of account, e.g., [email protected].
Account Type
POP3
Incoming mail server
pop3.virginmedia.com
Outgoing mail server (SMTP)
smtp.virginmedia.com
User Name
Use entire e-mail address.
e.g., [email protected]
Password
Enter the password for your e-mail account. If you don't know the password for your account you can reset it using the forgotten password tool in My Virgin Media.
Require logon using Secure Password Authentication (SPA)
Unticked/No

Thanks for that,
Is that an updated version (since they changed things a couple of months back) or working setups off your phone?
Also I had an O2 address (mail.o2.co.uk) on the outgoing server, as I had trouble sending in the 1st place and this cures things?
Also should the setup be the same for @virginmedia.co.uk addresses as @ntlworld.co.uk ones?
Cheers.

Dude just got to the virgin media website and have a look at the email help page. It's really not that difficult.

I know - I've done that in the past and with the settings they give it would only let you receive EMAIL's and not send them.
I'm not sure if the settings on there are just for mobiles on the Virgin network?
I wanted to be able to send/receive EMAIL's with O2.
I would have looked on the Virgin site myself if I had not tried them in the past and not bothered people on here.
That's the reason that I had to use the mail.o2.co.uk address for the outgoing server before (as it would not send EMAIL's from the settings they supplied on Virgin's site).

Nope - just tried the settings supplied for the NTLWorld EMAIL address on the Virgin site and they still don't work Dude (saying to check my account information when sending/receiving).

If i remember correctly to send now you have to use ssl encryption on the smtp connection and specify the same log in details as for the incoming pop connection (the smtp servers are no longer open). The reason for this is that when it was ntl/blueyonder the smtp servers would only respond to certain ip address' so any further security was not needed.
Nope - just tried the settings supplied for the NTLWorld EMAIL address on the Virgin site and they still don't work Dude (saying to check my account information).

i just read the latest post. The ip restriction may still be enabled so you may be screwed.

Ok - thanks for that.
Mark.

if you are using a data connection then set it to mail.o2.co.uk and make sure the connction is using o2 mobile
if you are using wifi at home thru the VM connection then you can use smtp.ntlworld.com

Sorry, but just checking - you have to setup a GMail account for this to work - I was wondering when you send somebody a message if it shows as from the NTL World EMAIL address or the GMail one?
Cheers, Mark.

Hi there,
Thanks for all the replies - I think I may have sussed it now with a combination of peoples replies and also using O2's server for the outgoing mail.
I can now send/receive + also delete EMAIL's off the server so they don't come through on my PC once I have deleted and done a send/receive on the phone.
Cheers, Mark.

I was also wondering about the IMAP4 setting on the mobile - does this mean that everything on the server is also stored on the phone as well, so you have old EMAIL's on your phone as well?
Does this slow the HD2 down, as it would be handy to have some of the older EMAIL's in folders on the phone.

It sends it from the gmail address.... All I have got in my folders is the stuff in my inbox... BTW what settings did you end up using for both the outgoing and sending?
Regards,
Alan

Hi there,
I got these settings E-Mailed from Virgin in the end (like the ones posted by somebody else earlier, but with info on the SSL + ports etc (not that I think you can setup the ports on the HD2).
It seems to work all ok now with even being able to delete messages off the server as well.
Cheers, Mark.
Thanks for getting in touch with the Virgin Media Support team.
The details for your email account settings are below.
Incoming Mail Server - pop3.virginmedia.com
Outgoing Mail Server- smtp.virginmedia.com
Username - Full email address including @ntlworld.com
Password - Your email password
Outgoing server requires authentication - Yes
Incoming Server Port - 995
SSL Required - Yes
Outgoing Server Port - 465
SSL Required - Yes
If you are going to be receiving emails to more than one device you will
need to use 'Recent' mode in order to facilitate this. To do this simply
add 'recent:' to the start of the username in your account settings on
your email client so if your username was '[email protected]' it
would become 'recent:[email protected]'.
