that won't auto setup?
I've got an account at mail.com , my email addy ends with @2die4.com
but it won't auto find the settings?
So set it manually
Read this - mail.com POP3 settings - which tells you how to setup your mail.com POP3 access with Outlook Express....the settings screens for Windows Mobile are not that different to OE.
It looks as though POP3 access is only available with a "Premium account", so I presume you've signed up for one???
Give it a whirl and see how you get on
Mark.
not a premium account holder! tried it anyway, didn't work, tho I think its down to me not understanding the settings.
will look for another free email account, that auto sets up

That's the page I'm in. Message in inbox can be highlighted but it will not open for me...
EDIT: meant to add this works fine for IE just not in Opera.
same problem here. I get logged on but can't click on the inbox. Does someone know the solution for Opera? (except IE).
i have the same annoying problem!
but then again, will stick back to IE for hotmails..
same here. I can't even log on or register my details through the touch flo tab. is there an apple rights type thing going on here?
Have you guys tried to open in another tab??
Grtz,

ive tried setting hotmail up throught tf3d and it allows the username and password, then it says settings found, please click next to continue, but as i do, it take me to mobile.live.com rather than the next step??
anyone know whats going wrong?
I had the same problem, so I did a back up, and a hard reset, to wipe everything, and when I came to set up my email hotmail account, it works just fine now.. I get the messages as they arrive..
so after the reset you were able to continue the registration and settings without it directing you to windows live page?
unless you enter an alternative email provider it won't let me enter settings manually
Yes. First I had the emails downloading to my phone, and showing in the inbox.. Then for some reason, I messed it up and tried to re set up an account, and every time I was being directed online to Windows live page..
I did a hard reset, not a soft reset.. It tells you how to do it on the HTC support page. That wipes everything off the phone, so make sure you back up any information or programs you want.
After I reset the phone , I tried my hotmail account again, and it works fine..
ok thanks very much. been reluctant to do the hard reset as its taken forever to customize and tweak to my liking. and that's just the shortcut menus.
here goes...
Hope it works for you like it did me..
and I kinda enjoyed tweaking mine and getting it set up again.
Good luck. let me know how it goes.
ive only just done a hard reset because i could install Framework 3.5, it there any other way to setup hotmail again, registry edit maybe?
also how do you get them delivered straight to your phone, a friend of mine who also has a HD says you have to manually sync.
did you guys know that you can set up hotmail into your mail tab now yeah?
to set it up, go to the mail tab > Menu > Accounts > New Account
when asked to enter your email address, enter your hotmail address, but with an error after the "@" sign. for example, if my email addy was "[email protected]", i would enter it as "[email protected]" (notice there is no "l" in "hotmail.com"). Enter your hotmail log-in password here as well.
Insert your name as you would like to appear on outgoing messages, and an account display name to show for your own navigation (mines is simply called "Hotmail", since i only use one hotmail account).
For the incoming mail server: pop3.live.com
Account type POP3
your username will be your hotmail email address (the correct version this time), and your normal password, as you would enter on the hotmail login page.
For outgoing mail: smtp.live.com
tweak other/advanced settings to your liking (and data plan - orange UK data plans suck).
Once you've set your account up, click on Start (top left corner) > Messaging > [your hotmail account] > Edit Account Setup. Now correct your emaill address that you originally inserted incorrectly, and continue pressing next till you get to the end.
Now your hotmail should be working fine.. no need to use opera at all

hi. I followed this advice from another thread which I can't find now.
but after I do all that and I go to Menu > Send Receive, there is an error in syncing and have to check my connection settings.
where am I going wrong?
in the process of backing up atm..
if your trying to do send/receive through TF3d, you can try doing send/receive through windows itself (i.e. go to start > messaging > hotmail > menu > send/receive)
see if that works. if it works fine, then automatic updates should work fine as well. I also get an error sometimes while trying to update via TF3D (only on hotmail), but it works fine if i do an update through windows.
phew! thanks for all suggestions so far. managed to set up using wifi. works perfectly.
problem is.. it only works with wifi.
when I attempt to send/receive through my t mobile connection it says I have to check my service provider etc. which I'll probably do tomoz
I already search the forum but I can't find a answer. When I setup my hotmail account it redirects me to the mobile site of hotmail using opera.
Before I flashed my HD I received my mail in touchflo the way I want it.
I already asked the rom cook but he is taking a break.
So anyone know how to fix this? I want my mail in touchflo and not using the browser.
Just open Messenger.
Fill in your username and password.
When asked, select the "sync e-mail".
This wil create all the needed settings, so your e-mail account is configured within touchflo
grtz,
Degake
You are the best, worked like a charm
thank you.

I would like to have that too but I already assigned myself to msn and so I dont get that option anymore.
And I cant find it in the options menu of msn messenger
any one got an idea?
I also have a problem with hotmail. after entering my details in the touch flo tab,a new msn window appears briefly then just goes back to a No Account tab. Any ideas pls?
Hotmail and others
If I've understood you correctly do this...
When you enter your email address enter a fake one for eg. [email protected] to avoid the auto-setup. On next screen untick the "try to get email settings automatically from the internet". On next screen choose "internet email" and carry on adding the POP3 settings for your email provider. That worked for Hotmail and Yahoo and should work for anything as long as the provider is pop3 enabled.
But normal hotmail doesnt support pop3 right?
U have to buy a hotmail ID for it ?
no the hotmail recently announced they now support pop. settings are as follows:
Incoming: pop3.live.com
outgoing: smtp.live.com
Username: [email protected] (make sure you include @Hotmail.com)
outgoing server requires SSL security, so make sure you check that
good luck

hotmail account profile missing
Hi,
i have created a hotmail e-mail account profile but i couldn't see on windows mobile 6.5 outlook software.
i can see it in registry but not gui.
How can i use hotmail or msn mail account?
please help
thanks
I have
G1
FW 1.5
MLIGN-HeroV3.0
I can't log into yahoo mail.
does it have something to do with a port? it's on port. 995.
And when I play music, it plays from the speaker that you hear from.
Not the one in the back.
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.

Go to yahoo mail and they have a plus plan that allows pop3 access.

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
ok so the only way I could get my hotmail to reciece emails on htc mail without it redirecting me to hotmail.com was to put in a false address in the username. now I recieve my mail but can't send as its really rubbish software and won't let me change it back.
can't find the registry address to change it.
is there an address in registry or a way to actually make htc mail work without just redirecting you to [Whotmail
thanks
When I used the HTC set-up wizard I had to manually enter it (seems that HTC don't believe hotmail to be one of the bigger mail servers)
If you add the account through touchflo. select manual setup after you entered your e-mail and password... then use
pop3.live.com
smtp.live.com
Otherwise you can add the account through Windows Live. Providing you have the most recent version, it will add the account rather than direct you to the website.

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
