I can retrieve email fine, but not send email via my gmail / messaging settings. It gives me an error message telling me to check my connection settings when trying to send in my outbox.
Any ideas?
If your service provider is ATT/cingular try using cwmx.com as your outgoing pop server.

Interesting...using fido however.
not sure whether gmail supports authenticated smtp... but that seems likely to be your problem...usually you have to use providers smtp address its something like gprs.fido.ca or internet.fido.ca
I'm assuming you can receive but not send right?
yes I can receive but not send...I've tried both smtp addresses but same error. Receiving isn't perfect either...
weird, mine works perfect for me. (im an AT&T customer)
I use pop.gmail.com and smtp.gmail.com. all ssl is enabled.
I also use as my username recent:[email protected]
using the recent: preface enables the emails to remain on the device between syncs.
Settings for T-MobileWeb
If anyone has it on Tmobile US using the el cheapo 5.99 plan... you have to:
1. go to your mytmobile page and set it in your tzone -> email settings (pop.gmail.com and smtp.gmail.com).
2. in your phone... set both smtp and pop to "myemail.t-mobile.com"
3. under password... use your email acct password... not your tmobile password
4. set internet to whatever you get internet on.
5. voila... email
I've just downloaded the gmail midlet...so now I couldn't care less about windows messaging!
I haven't had any problems sending with gmail.
Go to the gmail.com website, log in, and follow the directions for setting up outgoing email. You'll find that it will magically work once you follow the directions.
You can, of course, also use the midlet as you have discovered. I've found that the midlet is a bit flakey but perhaps you'll have better luck.

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
Chris
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!
Hi, I'm new to this site and definitely not a "techie", was wondering if anyone can help?
Recently purchased a QTek 9100 (aka imate jam, wizard?) and set up a new messaging profile for use with lineone (Tiscali) in the UK. I'm receiving e-mail no problem, but whoever I try to send to Ithe message is sent then returned to the draft folder and in my inbox I get the message
"System Administrator, Your message 'xxx' was not sent and has been moved to the Drafts folder. The following recipients are invalid: [email protected]"
Any ideas?
Solution??
I had the same problem. My solution was to open an email account with vodafone (its free) and created a rule to forward my mail to the new vodafone email address. I can recieve and send mail via the vodafone account with no problem. I think that many isp's don't allow you to log on with mobile devices.
I have a signature set up saying the mail was sent "ia my Kjam but please reply to my work email address", so i have a copy on my desktop and on the mobile device.
Only drawback is that you must logon to the vodafone account and delete you old meassages once in a while.
Hope this helps
Isn't it just the outgoing smtp server that is wrong?
Isn't it just the outgoing smtp server that is wrong?
Yes, I sure your right about this. I found that I get really fast, 100% logon with Vodafone email solution. I have worked in Spain, Italy, USA since I got my 9100, the email is always there every 15 mins. I need to be in touch, this works for me.
Thanks for the responses,
Yes I've set up a completely new account with Vodafone, this allows me to send mail and then I connect to lineone to receive. I don't particularly want to have my mail re-directed through Vodafone so this seems to be a good compromise.
Hi guys, looks like your smtp address is wrong, like q-big suspected. You can use the pop server of your email account to get mails from any mail server, but when you want to send mail over themail servers of your mobile provider, be sure to set the smtp server to the one Vodafone (in your case) uses. example: I have various email accounts on my Wizard. My incoming mail server (POP server) is different for each of my email accounts, since they are with various different email services. My smtp server is the same for all of them, namely T-Mobile smtp, since all my email will be sent out using T-mobile gprs.
Try setting the smtp server to the one your provider uses and you should be ok.
have you made sure you have authentication tcked for your outgoing mail? go into your account settings for the mail account you want to use. press next untill you get to the screen where you put the incoming and outgoing mail servers and click options, next and tick "outgoing mail requires authentication"
as your not connected to the internet using your isp (tiscali in your case) you have to authenticate to send mail too to stop people spamming from there servers
Yep, you just need to use the vodafone's smtp server and that should solve your troubles.
HTH

I had this problem. I spoke to my ISP who supply the e-mail addy in question.
They said that they blocked e-mails coming from any other connection than their own - i.e. unless you send the e-mail from your home computer (with the ISP account) it will be blocked and get that "invalid recipient" message.
There's a post out there somewhere that gives other "outgoing mail server" settings which seem to work, but that's on O2, not Vodafone.

I think on voda the smtp server is send.vodafone.net
i know it sounds odd, but it worked fine when i was on voda in the UK a while ago.
I had a same invalid error but it was just the smtp port AND smtp authentication. PUt both of those together and worked!
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
I installed the AT&T rom available on their site and now my pop3 email accounts don't work. I have one on a friends server and another on Gmail and both give me errors now when i try to download mail.
I get the Messages cannot be downloaded to your mobile device error.
Any ideas?
How about you post what your pop mail setting are currently configed as.

@shogunmark-
is it possible to get blackberry connect to work with this rom? I tried and could not get it to work. I've read about people hexediting the version numbers of wm6 roms to get it working. is this the issue with this new att rom also?
I am back on the previous rom now and it is working fine.
I tried running the no proxy cab on the new rom to no avail.
thanks,
wes

I vaguely recall someone having a similar problem with accounts that use non-standard SMTP ports. There's a thread for the 2.15 ROM... may have read it there.
Port 25 still needs to be open on that mailserver, otherwise inbound email wouldn't be coming into it. Port 587 is just used for people who cannot use SMTP due to their ISP blocking port 25, but port 25 on the server itself still needs to be open as that's where it receives inbound email. So take off the :587.
Just for giggles I verified for you that the standard SMTP port is open on the server:
telnet mail.crews.com 25
Trying 66.194.214.163...
Connected to mail.crews.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 mail.crews.com running EIMS X 3.3
quit
221 2.0.0 mail.crews.com closing connection
Connection closed by foreign host.
HOWEVER, you have never said if the problem is with sending or with receiving email. This setting has nothing to do with receiving email, only with sending.
I said the error was messages cannot be downloaded to the device. But to confirm, the error is that messages never download to the device and I get an error.
Either way, fix what I stated above. It may be that the device is failing during the send/receive because of your configuration problem and giving up altogether.
Change that. No luck. It still gives me the same error.

does it have something to do with a port? it's on port. 995.

Do you have Yahoo's paid service or just using the free version of yahoo mail? If you don't pay for the extra upgrade you can't get yahoo emails on your phone.

Okay here is the procedure on how to get the free version of Yahoo mail WORKING on your G1.
Make Sure your WiFi Connection is turned OFF first, before you tell me this does not work.
Go to your Email icon > Press Menu > Add Account
Type in your full yahoo email address including @yahoo.com
Type in your password
Go to manual setup > Press IMAP account and change to these settings....
Incoming server settings
Imap server - imap.mail.yahoo.com
port - 143
security type - TLS (if available)
Press Next, It will check your incoming server settings, then it takes you to the Outgoing Server Settings
Outgoing Server Settings
SMTP Server- smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com
port - 25
security type - TLS (if available)
* check Require sign-in
Press Next, Verifying Out Going Settings, Press Next at Account options unless you need to change a setting.
Give your account a name (optional ) - i called my Yahoo Mail and click Done
Hope this works out for those that could not get this done.

Midnight scarab, The reason why you are getting this message is if you chose TLS (Always). I tested it with that setting and got the same message "TLS required but not supported by server". Try it again hope that helps.

Psychoace, the only thing I know of that would cause the invalid username or password is having the wifi connection turned on. The initial setup needs to be done over a 3G connection. If that does not work let me know and I will try to help you out some more..
Thanks a TON! As always I searched all over but should have came to XDA in the first place
