Hi folks.
I have searched in the forum for an answer to my problem.
I have created a yahoo.co.uk imap account on my WM6 device and it works fine with a Vodafone SIM. However when i remove the Vodafone SIM and insert an O2 sim, the email account is not able to send and receive?? Anyway, if i go into the Edit Account Setup option and then Advanced Server Settings, within the email account. I can select the Network connection associated with the O2 sim (O2 wap) and then the email account works fine.
What i want to know is that is this actually classed as a problem or is this how the WM6 works? Is it a design issue? Should not the email account select the Network connection automatically instead of a user manually selecting it????
By the way i tried a T mobile and Orange sim and the exact same scenario occurred.
Any advice would be greatly 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!
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!
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
I can not use any of my email accounts (gamail, yahoo) on my phone,
when I press send/recive appears message:
cannot connet with current cooneting setting, if you want to change go on connection settings
but my internet (Explorer or Opera) is working perfectly
if anyone have a clue please save me
Did you set up the incoming/outgoing servers manually?
I'm not sure if it's the case but I registered at izymail.com and then used the izymail servers and it works a charm.
How about you try that?
E-Mail issue to be solved!
What providers (GSM and mail) do you use?
I do have the same problem and several others posted exactly this issue in several other threads.
This definitely is a problem which hasn't been solved.
Isn't there a charming developer out there who knows how to solve this
By the way, recommending to change the e-mail provider does not really help and obviously not solve the issue!
Did you choose a connection in Email setup? My Dual asks me which connection (internet, business, vpn etc.) to use. It's in the window for smtp server under advanced options. There you can select the correct setting. Maybe you have the wrong in there.
Cheers, Dennis
Maybe there's a proxy set in your 3g connection. I have vodafone and is automatically setups a proxy, which causes email and live messenger problems. Just disabling the proxy in connection settings worked for me.
No Proxy
I figured something strange out. If I disconnect the 3G connection in the Comm manager, then press send/receive the device once connects with the e-mail server and even downloads the headers. As soon as I want to download an e-mail I get the same message again: "Could not connect to server, check your inbox account login-information"!
That drives me insane! If I disconnect again from 3G and then press send/receive it works again - JUST ONCE.
It's the same for POP or IMAP.
Would be nice if somebody could help out.
Thanks in adavance
I have had exactly the same problem since I installed the Mary 6 ROM on my touch dual and have the problem with two different email accounts so It's definitely not an issue with those settings.
When you install the new ROM it auto detects your network (I'm on T- mobile UK) and sets up all of the connections automatically so I'm guess the problem lies there.
Does anyone know where I can verify that these settings are correct?

I had the same problem on t-mobile uk after flashing the new official 6.1 rom.
I solved it by disabling the proxy server START-SETTINGS-CONNECTIONS-CONNECTIONS-MANAGE EXISTING CONNECTIONS-PROXY SETTINGS. Internet access still works I also did a hard reset after flashing the rom, but that may not be relevant.
Have setup my HD2 on t-mobile using the automated wizard, i can browse the internet fine using opera, but each time i want to check my IMAP account i get the following message: "Cannot connect with current settings".
If i switch to WiFi it works perfectly, so my email settings are correct. And my internet settings on 3G are correct as i can browse the internet, but for some reason i cant download email over IMAP. Is anybody else having similar issues?
Nb. I'm in the UK.
thanks.
Try turning off the proxy server in connection settings.
Thanks that worked a treat, so much for auto-configuration
sorry if I post it here, but I have an issue with my web.de imap account, wich is that it only shows me messages back till wednesday when I got my phone and set up the account. all messages prior to that date are not shown. neither in my trash, nor in any other folder. and I accidentally deleted a message and it is still there according to my web.de account, but my hd2 doesn't show the message anymore. is there something wrong with the way the hd2 flags messages in imap?
i actually rang up TMobile technical support to ask them what the proxy was for and why it is added in the auto config settings. they had no idea. they could only tell me what it was supposed to be, not why.
Seems like most programs prefer not having the TMobile proxy set.
Maybe there isn't any proxy necessary and it's a problem with the htc mail app itself. see my case above, that's surely not web.de problem but something wrong with the htc mail app. but I can't figure out what and why.
