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.

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

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

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.

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.

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

mopera u email problem

Does anyone know how to setup other email accounts on HTC-z docomo using Mopera? I understand that they block port 25 for sending. So how do you get around that. I can receive but cant send on any account other than the mopera account. I tried to use mopera outgoing mail server setting in the other account but it still does'nt work. Any ideas?? I finially got it switched over to english and would like to send email as well as receive.

I can receive email, but can't send email with POP3 account

Hey guys, I have a softbank phone with the Black 2.0 ROM on it. I've been able to receive emails, but I'm not able to send them from the phone. My email account is through roadrunner, and I have the proper pop-server/smtp-server settings on the phone, but I keep getting an error saying "550 5.7.1 <email address I was sending it to> Relaying denied"
Has anyone else had this issue before? Anyone have any clue as to what it is I am doing wrong? I'm on the T-Mobile network and I have GPRS setup correctly and I am able to go on websites. So I don't think it's because I'm not getting a connection, but something else. Any help on this is greatly apprecaited guys, thanks

Sounds like an SMTP authentication issue. See if you can find the Tmobile SMTP server and set it to send through that, which should work as you are on a Tmobile connection (asuming your forum details are still correct)
Failing that check with roadrunner to see what authentication you need set up to use their SMTP server. I use Googlemail and you have to have SSL authentication set up with your username and password to be able to send through their server.

AAhhh....thats right, I had to do the same thing with the email app on my previous Sony ericsson M600i. Thanks for the reply and the help, I appreciate it

Outgoing Email Issues on Mogul

My POP3 account works fine for incoming email but when I attempt to send outgoing it says "looking for changes" then errors out. When I switch over to WIFI outgoing emails send just fine. My ISP is Cox. Any ideas why this is occurring? Thanks
Don

I ran into this too and searched google about it, the answer seems to be that most ISP's block use of their smtp server for outside domains even if you have a user/pass. When you switch to wifi you are using cox again so it works.
Something about preventing abuse by spammers. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
Supposedly you need to call your wireless provider and set up an email account with them to send email from your phone. What I did was set up a free hotmail account and used Windows live because I don't feel like talking to Sprint any more than I have to.

I'm talking to the 4th tech person from Sprint in the last hour so I know exactly what you mean! They indicated that I have to use Spint's smtp for outgoing but that's not working either. Maybe I'll try a hotmail account. Thanks for your help.

I was able to get ahold of Sprint's EVDO Support at 866-818-1944 and suprisingly they were very helpful and were able to get my outgoing email working.
My ISP (Cox) blocks all outgoing email that originate from a different domain. Although I had set up my smtp as sprintpcs.com I had my Sprint Vision password incorrect. Once the tech reset my password outgoing emails now work fine.
