I can't seem to get my yahoo email accounts to work when I try to set them up on the email app. Any idea what can be wrong or what I can do?
I had this problem as well, it wouldn't automatically set up so I put in the mail servers manually. To do so type in your email and password then select manual setup. Choose IMAP as the option after that and then set the incoming mail server to imap.mail.yahoo.com and then select next and then set the outgoing mail server to smtp.mail.yahoo.com and then select next then go through the rest of the set up and you should be good, worked for me.
Still can't get it to work keeps telling me my password or username is incorrect.
Are you sure that you have switched off any wifi connection on the phone? It will not connect over wifi but over your phone 3g/g connection.

username n password keep on poping up..
Settings are:
Username: your complete email, including '@gmail.com'
incoming server: pop.gmail.com
outgoing server: smtp.gmail.com
Remember to enable pop3 access on the Settings panel in Gmail.
You have to use non-default port number for the SSL.
465 for outgoing
995 for incoming
so it's:
pop.gmail.com:995
smtp.gmail.com:465

ok I managed to retrieve my email but unfortunately I can't sending an email. so any idea?
Come to think of it, I was having this issue early on as well. I just used a different outgoing server to send my mails. Luckily my carrier provides a free email and I simply used their outgoing server settings for the gmail account and everything worked after that. If you have another mail account that works try setting the outgoing mail server on your gmail account to the other working server.
how if I dont have any. But why is it? Why gmail outgoing is not working?
My gmail is working fine on my jam. I don't use any special port numbers either. You need to go to the advanced section in account setup and select SSL and also check the authentication on send box. That worked for me.
Sometimes being connected with activesync can cause an email account to get blocked because the PC has been collecting emails.
Gmail working fine for me too, used EmailWiz to set it up. Newer version even includes gmail so takes about 30 secs (early version needed a couple more details). Might be worth deleting your current account and trying?
As you're receiving mail I guess you've turned the proxy settings on with your gmail account, that got me first time I tried.
Hi guys,
Im having a frustrating time trying to get my outlook to send email. I can receive just fine.
Just a note, my computer sends/receives fine and i use the same settings on computer and phone. I never user activsync because ive never been able to get the linux version to work for me.
My server requires authentication however i get this error when i try to send: "The message(s) could not be sent. Check that you have network coverage
and that your account information is correct. Then try sending again."
If i uncheck the option for authentication, the email bounces as it should saying relay is not allowed.
Im using the same settings as my computer, but I just dont see whats wrong. Im a linux user and built my webserver so i feel like i should be able to figure this out which leads me to thing outlook sucks lol
Any suggestions to try?

In 'Edit Server Settings' where it has your User name, Password, and Domain how do you have that set up? when i first did mine i set it up with all three, but it didn't work, and what worked for me was setting the username to be [email protected] leaving the Domain field blank -- so that is something to look into, and if it is different maybe try setting it up the other way just putting your email as the username and the domain in the domain field.
How do i find 'Edit Server Settings'?
In my inbox, i click the Menu button bottom right, click tools and options. then i click on the email account i created, which sends me through all the email settings in the following order.
Note: i never used Outlook email as it never let me specify pop or imap so i added New Account.
Email address -- [email protected]
Your name - james
Account display name -- greyed out
incoming server name lwp.ca
account type -- greyed out (its set to imap)
username -- [email protected]
password
outgoing smtp server: lwp.ca
requires authentication checked
use same user name and password for sending mails checked
Automatic send/receive -- set to manual
download messages set to from the past 30 days
message format : html
message download limit: headers only
download attachments: do not download
I am having the same problem with Alltel PPC6800 and I found out (by tethering with my PC) that some of their IP addresses are listed with Spamhaus.
If I keep trying it will eventually go through when the IP Address switches to one not listed.
Hope it helps?

Ive never tried tethering.. Ive been using the built in wifi or the data service with no luck.. I think its a crippled outlook issue..
Does anyone have suggestions for a free mail client that uses IMAP? If only thunderbird could be used

sorry when you said you use outlook to send i assumed you were using an exchange server -- since you are using IMAP what i said is irrelevant.
When you are at the point where it asks for the outgoing SMTP server, there is a link to 'Advanced Server Settings' at the bottom of the screen. clicking on that will allow you to require SSL for incoming and outgoing -- that would be my only other guess.
but i do find it strange that your incoming and outgoing mail servers are the same and not IMAP.lwp.com and SMTP.lwp.com or something similar.
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.

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
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
Hello everyone. I cannot figure out how to add my second email to my droid. I have it rooted with the liberty 1.5 rom and figured out how to do the hotmail but my other pop3 I cannot figure out.
Here is the instructions from the website.
PC Client Setup Information:
POP3 (inbound mail) Server: mail.ar15.com
SMTP (outbound mail) Server: mail.ar15.com
- User name and password are case sensitive.
- Your password must be 4-16 characters long.(alpha-numeric)
- For security, we require authentication for outbound (SMTP) mail. check "MY SERVER REQUIRES AUTHENTICATION" in your mail client under server settings.
- Please set the email check timer to be 10 minutes or more.
I enter in all of my info but cannot find any part where It asks for the SMTP. Under security type I see
none
SSL
SSL (accept all certs)
TLS
TLS (accept all certs)
I can get passed the ingoing email screen but when it comes to the outgoing email screen I get this message: Unable to open connection to server
Any help? I had it set up before I rooted but not cannot get it dialed in.
Thanks
No one?
Please help as this is super important I get it working..
I would go back in to settings>accounts> and click on that account. then select outgoing server, and try it without verifiy certificate, then if that doesnt work, try it without authentication.

I have tried that and it did not work
Anyone else? There is no place on the outgoing screen that says anything about server authentication
Bump Thanks
