On my Prophet I would like to use my Gmail next to my Hotmail account. I've enabled POP in my Gmail account and I tried to set it up on the phone. However, Gmail requires usage of port 995 for pop and 465 for smtp. There is no setting for the port on the Prophet. I tried inputting pop.gmail.com:995 and smtp.gmail.com:465 for the servers but that made no difference (it 'connects' but asks me for my login info while 'loggin on...' and yes I've tried it with and without @gmail.com and retyped my password several times).
Does anybody have a work around? Or.. an option I've missed? Or.. an hack to make it possible to use a different port? Or.. a name of an e-mail application that works on Windows Mobile that provides this feature?
Here, this is the way to set up GMail:
In the Server Information, click Option, and in the "Require SSL connection" box, check/enabled that option. Also, below it, check "outgoing mail requires authentication."
With these two enabled, GMail will work fine.
One last thing, you can only select "Get message header only". If you select get entire mail, once you download your mail to your PPC, you cannot download the mail anymore in your desktop via Pop3.
For Wifi connection, I would recommend you specify larger size of header to download, I use the max 999 KB of message body.
For slower connection like GPRS, I set mine to only download 10 KB of message body.
Hope this helps.
That's weird.. I tried what you propose but as I said it would keeps asking me for my login information? Since those are correct I assumed it was due to the fact that I didnt set the right port number anywhere?
Anything I'm overlooking here then?
Not sure what you miss. I will recommend you just delete that mail box and re-create it again. If it does prompt you for login information, I guess there is a chance you typed the wrong pwd.
But it should work fine. You can use your login without the @gmail.com
Does it work for you? On your Prophet?
Here's what I do @ Outlook E-mail:
* Menu | Tools | New account
* Enter e-mail address: flyingd*[email protected]
* Auto configuration (never goes past Download..) --> Next
* Your name: Full Name
Username: flyingd*tchman [or] flyingd*[email protected]
Password: Password (includes one capital)
* Account type: POP3
Name: gmail
* Incoming mail: pop.gmail.com
Outgoing mail: smtp.gmail.com
Domain:
* Options
Connection: The Internet (= T-Mobile GPRS)
Checked SSL connection
Checked outgoing mail requires authentication
* Finish
Then it goes 'connecting' followed by 'loggin on..' and it keeps asking me for my incoming E-mail username and password?
yes, i just verified my config with yours, line per line.
I have also my password saved there, and limit to 10KB header of message to download over the GPRS link.
Um, this is not a free solution, but you can also use Flexmail 2007, which is an excellent client and supports port changing and everything under the sun.
Does everything under the sun include checking for new e-mail say every minute and reporting new e-mail to the 'today' screen?
It can check for new email every minute.
It doesn't have a Today screen plugin which is one of the main faults of the program, I guess. However, it has the ability to stay minimized in the System tray next to the Wifi icon and it has the ability to notify on each new email so I guess it can tell you when you have new email.
I don't check for my mail every minute and usually use it with my Wifi connection so its perfect for me.
But it can do those things which you mentioned
How do i set up my yahoo email manually on The Dudes build.
Go to email app and add your acct.
For manual setup:
Incoming Mail (POP3) Server: plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com (Use SSL, port: 995)
Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server: plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com (Use SSL, port: 465, use authentication)
Account Name/Login Name: Your Yahoo! Mail ID (your email address without the "@yahoo.com")
Email Address: Your Yahoo! Mail address (e.g., [email protected])
Password: Your Yahoo! Mail password

If you don't have yahoo plus you can set it up for the free version of yahoo mail with these:
Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server: imap.mail.yahoo.com
Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server: smtp.mail.mobile.yahoo.com (use authentication)
Account Name/Login Name: Your Yahoo! Mail ID (your email address without the "@yahoo.com")
Email Address: Your Yahoo! Mail address (e.g., [email protected])
Password: Your Yahoo! Mail password
Im guess that maybe the client sends information about itself and yahoo is somehow rejecting it. Currently those settings dont work. Also smtp.mail.mobile.yahoo.com doesnt resolve, but smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com does.
these arent workin for me
Has anyone figured out why this only works via network and not WiFi?
nevermind.....

I was able to get it to work, but for some reason, when I'm on the screen that lists all my email accounts, it says my yahoo email has 2 new emails, although there isn't any new emails to be read. Anybody else have this problem?

I'm on Rogers, so my guess is it will work with any carrier.
It's giving me the "Username or password incorrect. ()" error on Incoming settings and "Username or password incorrect. (AUTH PLAIN failed (535 authentication failed (#5.7.0)))" error on Outgoing settings. I double-checked that my credentials are good by signing off and re-logging to Yahoo mail. Just to note that I don't have Yahoo Plus.
Edit: Nevermind, it works. Apparently this doesn't work over Wifi, only over the mobile network. I knew there was a reason I ditched Yahoo in favor of GMail all those years ago!
worked for me on my at&t htc tytn. wm6.1
I needed to set the port numbers.
smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com:25
Guys it keeps telling me username or password incorrect? i know they are correct?? i tried doing the manual setup and to no avail .. it used to work automatically before flashing to cm rom
EDIT seems that yahoo.com is down for me .. WTF owell will try tomorrow
Hi, I have atutorial in spanish with screenshots on My website if anyone is interested http://www.dgtallika.com/2009/07/como-usar-yahoo-mail-en-tu-g1-my-touch-hero/ and maybe for the non spanish speaking all images are in english so you can give it a try! Hope it helps
Try these settings:
Server Settings
Incoming Mail Server (POP3): pop.mail.yahoo.com
Use SSL, port: 995
Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP): smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Use SSL, port: 465, use authentication
Account Name/Username: [email protected]
Email address: [email protected]
Password: Your Yahoo! Mail password
Note: if it doesn't work, then log onto ur yahoo account, then change the regional settings to Yahoo! Asia
It works great for me on wifi
the same thing kept happening to me after i put the cm rom on my mytouch. heres what i did and it finally worked
input the sign in info and select manual setup
choose the imap account
username:[email protected]
password:******
imap server: imap.mail.yahoo.com
port:143
smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com
port:25
This did it for me
I did not choose ssl but added ":465" to the smtp server
so to recap
plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com - incoming
plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com:465 - outgoing
no ssl just authentication

just wondering if there is a way to backdoor setup an email account. as some of you may know, the G1 has some kind of pop up that comes up when trying to setup emails.
something like SPAMHAUS or something. anyone ever get this?
anyway to backdoor or turn off the filter for that, or something?
Manual email setup (was: back door email setup)
To bypass the account setup wizard in android mail, and configure the account manually, you can use the 'Manual Setup' button.
To get there click 'Next' when you are prompted 'Welcome to email setup .... email accounts in two steps'.
On the next screen, the 'Manual setup' button appears at the bottom left of the screen. The 'Manual setup' button is disabled until you enter an email address and password.
I always use the manual way anyway. That's not what I'm asking for. Because the wizard still does silly things for certain accounts. So I was trying to see if there is a way to bypass all of that and do it thru root.
Is anyone else here having trouble setting up there yahoo account on the new jf 1.5 adp? It keeps coming up as wrong user and account. I don't have yahoo plus, but this worked just fine on jf rc33. If anyone knows what the put in the manual set up that would be cool if its even possible.
I remember reading some sort of disclaimer when you first set up the yahoo account on RC33 that you can only access your yahoo free account if you are a Tmobile customer... maybe since the 1.5 is currently ADP, it won't let you into the free yahoo account unless you have the tmobile version. Just a thought.

Mine used to act this way when I had the standard T-Mobile RC33 OTA. Ever since rooting, I've been able to access my Yahoo email just fine, even though i DON'T have Yahoo Plus.
what does this mean? it only happens after i hit continue for the Outgoing mail server:
SETUP COULD NOT FINISH
cannot connect to server.
(550-5.7.1 Hello [24.161.12.151]; If you feel we mistreat you, do contact us.-5.7.1 Hello [24.161.12.151]; Ask HELP for our contact information. 5.7.1 Hello [24.161.12.151]; http://www.spamhaus.org/query/bl?ip=24.161.12.151)
anyone have any idea what this is?
bump for an answer?

Hi all,
Has anyone managed to get their hotmail to sync so that when you delete mail on the DHD it deletes it from your hotmail inbox? I've checked the box in the settings but the mail stays in the inbox (on web hotmail, not the DHD).
i've only got a hotmail and gmail account - the gmail works fine, btw - but it would be interesting to see if this is just my DHD/hotmail account, or if its happened to others with hotmail or any other mail service.
anyone?
I've almost the same problem. If I delete mail on my phone then it will also be deleted on hotmail but if I mark mail as read on my phone, on hotmail it is still unread
Try this:
-go to mail,
-hit menu,
-tap more,
-then tap settings,
-then acc. settings,
-leave your email as it is (so tap on next)
Protocol: POP
Email: Your email
User name: Your email
Password: Your pass
POP-server: pop3.live.com
Security type (or something similar): SSL
Serverport: 995
Hit Next and check this:
User name: Your email
Password: Your password
SMTP-server: SMTP.live.com
Security type (or something similar): TLS
Serverport: 25
Hit next and check for any difference
Temp. solution..

its really quite frustrating to go through a few days of handling mail on my DHD only to have to repeat it all again in my inbox.
I tried it out just now and it works for me. Did you check both "Sync deleted items from server" and "Delete mail on server" boxes?

of course. this was the first thing i checked.
just download the original mail program. You can find the apk with google. HTC mail has a lot of exchange problems with hotmail(sadly, the standard mail program is a bit basic).
Same problem here too. I gave up trying to set up hotmail, so I just added it as an account in my gmail. Now my hotmail gets forwarded to my gmail, and I don't have to worry about checking two different apps. I'm actually glad I had the problem. Much easier now to keep track of emails.
no luck on Anoniem's solution,
hope something can help with this issue,
*sigh*

I'd go with that too. I have an account on university mail, another gmail and one company account, the most sensible thing to do is to get everything delivered to one place i.e gmail. A lot less effort that way
Change the days to sync to 1 day when using activesync and hotmail.
App: Improved Email solved the problem
Hi guys, I have been using one app from marketplace called "Improved Email" (free) and it does good job in syncing hotmail account.
Hotmail does not support imap, so if you use pop3, when any email is deleted or marked as read/unread on you mobile, the change won't be reflected to the hotmail account accessed through webpage.
However, hotmail provides a solution by using exchange/activesync instead of imap. I have tried several apps including android/htc default one, "Improved Email" works the best but unfortunately it only display text based email instead of HTML version (this may be the restriction on hotmail exchange server).
How-To:
Start "Improved Email" app, put in your email address and password, select "MANUAL Setup" -> "Exchange".
Domain\Username: email address
Server: m.hotmail.com
check "User secure connection(SSL)"
then "Next"
Then, you should see "Account options" page where the checking frequency and others could be set.
"Next"
Then, define colour for this account
Last, give a name to this account.
Done!!
Now you should be able to see all your account folders, to delete emails, to make it read/unread, while the webpage one keeps updating.

can someone help me?i want to have email on my hd2.im running android cyanoged mod7.are there any settings for that?thanks in advance
You should have an app called Gmail, in which you can set up your GMail account to send and recieve your Google mail to and from your phone. If you use Yahoo or some other mail provider, you have to ues the app called email.
I use the email app (not the gmail app) for all 3 of my email accounts. I have GMail, Yahoo, and Buckeye-Express mail all set up on mine.
Just go into the email app and press the menu button and choose 'add account', and then fill in the info for your particular account.
If you need help with account-specific settings and details, reply back and I'll help you out (Yahoo can be a real pain to set up on a mobile device)
i have the gmail app but still i cant have emails.if you can just tell me the settings....
for the gmail app, as long as you're setting it up with a gmail account, all you have to do is press the menu button in the app, choose 'add account', enter your gmail username ([email protected]) and password, and choose automatic setup. The app will communicate with the google servers for a few minutes, and when it's finished, you will ahve all your google emails on your phone.
but just in case:
incoming settings:
server type is imap
imap server: imap.gmail.com
port: 993
security type: SSL
outgoing settings:
smtp server: smtp.gmail.com
port: 465
security type: SSL -check the box that says require log in
thanks.you are my hero.
