can't email out except [email protected]??

i have the imate ... i set up the account with my email as [email protected] using mail.optonline.net incoming /outgoing now i can recieve from everyone ..i can only email out to another @optonline.net account .......no @aol.com or business account [email protected](my business address at work)...it returns saying account invaid?? so what iam doing wrong....please help

I guess smtp.optonline.net only accepts mail from users form their own domain...
This is called non-relaying.... and is used as a anti-spammeasure....
There is not much to do about it...

thanks i will ask them...also what is smtp.optonline.net because now iam using the mail.optonline.net for in /out and leavong blank the domain .....but also i do have a aol account will that work is it a pop account also .....

i just assumed they would use smpt.optonline.net because smpt IS the protocol thats used, but they kan gife the server any name, so be it mail.optonline.net :wink:
Smpt is for sending mail, pop is for retieving it. If you have an account you can use with username and password for outgoging mail to, the problem should be fixed....

Thats what I was looking for "T-Mobile"
so on your device use myemail.t-mobile.com for Outgoing mail.
Yes you can get your AOL mail but you'll have you use their email program.

T-Mobile's SMTP server (myemail.t-mobile.com) works on all (6) of my pop3 email accounts. Then again I do have their unlimited internet but that shouldn't make any difference now since you can get T-Zones free.
Read UNLIMITED FREE GPRS access now on tmobile

BTW what T-Mobile AP are you using for your connection? It should be set to wap.voicestream.com.
HTH

Thought :!:
Make sure you're not using "Outgoing e-mail server requires authentication" in your Pocket Inbox settings.
HTH

Qman thats it.... when i first started i was using the internet2.voicestream it did not allow rec and send then they said try the internet3.voicestream and it worked so i thought rec all email BUT only out going to optonline email addresses .So as you suggested the wap.voicestream.com It works with all rec and send to all email addresses..thanks again

Now thats what I call good news and they say don't sweat the small stuff!

The myemail.t-mobile.com works great for me with the wap setting.
Does anybody know a similar mail setting for ATT? I need to set it up on a couple ATT phones too. Thanks - Jim

Yes, for AT&T you would use:
pdasmtp.attwireless.net :wink:

Cool - thanks!

Anybody know Cingular's?
I am having the same problem with only able to receive the email, can't send. I even tried my third party smtp server with authentication and it won't allow the send unless I am using my wifi from home where Optimum Online is the ISP.

Help required for MMS set-up (Wizard on Orange)

Hi
I have just purchase an O2 Wizard....... Wow :lol:
I have removed the O2 software and would love to set-up MMS.
I can not see the MMS tab within the mail folders.
I have tried the MMS configuration but no luck :-(
Many thanks for you time.

Can't send Yahoo email from my O2 device

Hi Gurus,
I have a major problem and am tearing my hair out. I've searched this forum as much as I can, and followed as many instructions as possible, but am still no closer to resolving.
I have an Orange SPV M600, which I've unlocked and have out an O2 online sim only in it - all fine so far.
I have deleted all gprs/wap setings for orange
I have set up O2 gprs settings as per the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=265647 - just the gprs and MMS part though (not wap) submitted by s_h_a_h_i_d (many thanks for your info).
I've then gone to messaging, and have attempted to get my UK yahoo mail coming down to the phone. I can receive everything, but whenever I try and send email from the account, i get the "Mesages cannot be downloaded to your mobile device. Make sure you are connected and that your email account settings are correct. Then, try to download messages again". I let the phone get the settings from yahoo, and everywhere I've looked, the settings are definitely pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk and smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk with a blank domain.
Someone please help. This is insane
TIA

very normal, not your machine problem. If you know which ISP are you connecting to by WIFI, use the smtp server of that ISP. It will be okay.

If you're using a GPRS connection then you need to change the outgoing server to smtp.o2.co.uk

thanks for the reply guys. smtp.O2.co.uk worked. Happy holiday season

Can Receive but not Send EMAIL

I did setup outlook email in tytn. I can recieve emails fine. Why its impossible to send? I have tried in every possible way. Error appears, your incoming mail server not correct, check and try again. Incoming and outgoing server both are correct. What can be reason? Tytn is cool but i hate it when it cant just send an email. Extremely irritating.
Help will be appreciated.

Sorry but you do not give enough info to work with. You say incoming mail server is correct but it helps us to know what you have it set to and who provider is. For example I notice that lots of internet sites have an incorrect port settings for O2 UK MMS. So when you say your setting is correct; there might be someone here who says it will work if you change it to ?????. Did you set this up manually or was it done by the wizard?
Cheers
Mike
PS. Edited your thread title - you must give brief description of problem/issue. "EMAIL" does not encourage people to help!

You might not be allowed to send email because you are not actually on your email provider's network. I was not able to send Charter.net email via my Cingular device, until I changed the outgoing server to match Cingular's outgoing SMTP server.
I hope this gives you another direction in which to investigate a solution.

my location is norway. i am using network solutions as my email provider. in coming mail server is mail.waqar.com and out going mail server is smtp.networksolutions.com everything seems fine. then why its not working?

Hi
I found the following comment on the following website:
Note: Some ISPs will not allow you to use Network Solutions’ outbound mail servers. If that is the case, type in the name of your ISPs outgoing e-mail server (ex. smtp.myisp.com). You may also try and configure Network Solutions’ Outbound Mail server to connect to Port 2525 instead of the default Port 25.
http://www.emailuserguide.com/07-howto-setup-email-software.htm
Might relate to your problem??
Mike

i had the same problem. all i had to do (after strugling for a week) was check the box next to "outgoing mail requires... (missing text)" in outlook. Hope this helps!

it was smtp.waqar.com instead smtp.networksolutions.com
thanks guys

Can't send POP e-mail...

Receiving from my ntl account works fine, but when I try to send something it complains about a possible problem with coverage and/or account settings...and yet everything looks the same as it does in Outlook where, incidentally, it works fine.
Is it possible to import an account with its settings from where I have it in Outlook? Just in case I have missed something after all...

Are you on Wifi or GPRS/UTMS?
If you are using your phone network you might need to use their outgoing server. If you can give a little bit more info, I might be able to help.

This is over HSDPA on my contract WAP. I know of no outgoing server info for Vodafone but I could be wrong...
Just as an aside, do you know why my X1 tries to connect to 'Business Email' whenever I turn it on?
Thanks
*Update* - Email sent fine over the Activesync connection...hmmm. Any ideas?

Uk Vodafone should have send.vodafone.net as the outgoing SMTP address.
Not sure why Business Email should be connecting, unless you are using their own Push Email solution.

Awesome, you sir are a genius. Thank you!

I don't have their email but continually get this screen trying to connect me to Business Email - I have to cancel it two or three times to get it to GO AWAY. It is one the many reasons I think we are going to part company.

The Business Email APN is another one of these locked settings. In the reg you should be able to unlock it, and then remove it via Connections.
If you aren't using it, then you should have no worries.

What is the 'reg' - it is SO annoying. It's going back later this week - I've had enough!
