Anyone suddenly not connecting to yahoo from the Acer? My Droid works, but the tab says invalid username or password. I deleted and remade my yahoo account to no avail. Anyone else with issues?
Edit - also my imap from Thunderbird on my PC isn't working. Webmail seems fine. Wonder if the imap server is just down?
It works now. Imap musta went down for a bit.
Yahoo isn't working again. Under the stock mail app, I make my yahoo account and it tells me invalid username or password... but its correct, I've typed it a million times. Any thoughts?

Hi,
This is driving me nuts.
I have installed qmail (q3u) and cannot get it to send mail.
I have the smtp server as smtp.t-email.co.uk which works fine with pocket outlook. The only difference I can see is that within pocket outlook it is set to authenticate with the outgoing username and password left blank.
qmail will not leave authenticate selected if the username and password are blank.
can anyone help?
thanks
I am using Qmail and cannot get my free Hotmail accounts to work. My other accounts do work. However, it may take me 2 - 4 times to try to log in before they connect. Hotmail will not connect. Any suggestions?
Sorry I cannot help you with your problem.

Hotmail, as has been pointed out in some of my mailer-related articles (for example the IMAP Bible at http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=1247&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1 ), doesn't have POP3 access in its free version. You need to either subscribe to Hotmail Plus or use the built-in Messaging Hotmail account (which does have access to your mailbox - but no other mailer client on your PDA) coming with your Wizard.
well i've managed to fix my problem now. I needed to put the t-mobile smtp server address within the local host section on the smtp tab.
the only thing i can suggest for your problem is to check that the dial up option in qmail is set to the same gprs connection that you usually use.
Hi there,
I've tried searching for this but can't seem to find the answer anywhere. I want to be able to download all my hotmail emails to my HTC Touch HD, but currently theres a limit to 50 on my hotmail account.
Is there anyway of doing this? I'm sure I used to be able to do it on a previous version of windows mobile but can't seem to now. It seems so bizaare that you can't, as I often want to go back to old emails, and don't always want to go through the web to get these.
Maybe there's a better email application, or even outlook for windows mobile which I could use?
Thanks for any help,
Tom
try setting up your email account using Outlook Mobile's POP3 settings (pop3.live.com / smtp.live.com). during the setup process don't use the real email address @hotmail, or @msn or @live, use @hotmaill, @msnn or @livee. once you've completed the setup you can go back to change to the correct email account name. the only downside is you lose the push feature. your phone will poll your email account based on the interval you select during setup. i'm using this setup for my MSN account, where email arrives every 5 minutes duirng the day and every 30 minutes in the evenings.
Thanks mate, thats perfect. Don't need to have push email anyway.
Cheers, Tom

Hotmail account on HD
Hi all,
Anyway of getting my hotmail account to go through the Outlook on the phone, WITHOUT having my account on Messenger?
It seems you can only have one account setup on messenger, as as my messenger account.
Now when you setup messenger using a hotmail account, you have the option to get all emails going through the outlook, and download to the phone as normal.
BUT I dont use a hotmail account for my messenger, and my main email accoutn is a hotmail account... hope this doesnt confuse you! But my messenger is a "dead account" and any emails sent to that email go no where.
So If i try setup my hotmail account in the outlook, put in all the setting like email address, password ect, it just takes me to hotmail.com on my Opera browser, but does not save the settings in outlook?
Sorry for confusion!
Not sure I've followed you correctly.
I also don't use messenger but I do have hotmail on my device in emails tab. I used Windows Live to set it up which is on most HD roms. Once you've gone through process of setting up and sync'ing your hotmail account will appear in emails tab like any other email account
Ah yeah, but the problem is, Windows Live just like messenger only lets you have one accoutn setup at once.
So I set my hotmail up with windows live, my emails appear. Thats good.
But then it also sets Messenger up, with the hotmail account, which I dont want, if you get me?
you might be able to setup multiple hotmail accounts using the method listed here. i use this to access 2 msn accounts and 1 live account. not push, but works just as well.

I've merged both these threads due to their simularity
The last email I received on my Hero via HTC Email app is at 8.46am.
If I sync by wifi or Tmobile 2g I dont get any more emails.
The Gmail app does, my ipod Touch does. I have deleted the email account and recreated but no change.
Any ideas.
Just checked my yahoo account with HTC Mail and this works fine.
Has Google got issues??? I have all the correct imap settings
imap.gmail.com SSL port 993
smtp.gmail.com SSL port 465
I configured a gmail account in HTC Mail and it has been working fine. Only had to enter my accountname (mail address) and password. And HTC Mail configured everything else. Maybe you shouldn't configure your Gmail account manually?
Works fine for me. Both accounts I have set up are refreshed properly. I'd try deleting the account and setting it up again to see if this does the trick.
I have already deleted account.
Can you tell me if the Google email auto account settings by HTC are POP or IMAP?
If its pop3, then I wont be able to view the folders.
What I dont understand is this email has been working for nearly 2 weeks no issues.
Baffled.
Just deleted any did the HTC auto setup. Gmail setup as IMAP will same settings as I did manually, but still the newer messages from today are not showing.
This is really p*ssing me off.
Just come off the phone from HTC UK Technical support. I was speaking to a lovely lady who was very helpful. It took 30 mins but we solved it.
In a nutshell from my laptop I deleted some emails from my inbox , 5 in total out of 13 and suddenly the HTC Mail app was taking ages to sync and then voila.
It appears as if the sync status on the app got corrupted. But all working.
Happy now, and I must say a big thank you to HTC support
Hah, this is weird. I deleted and re-created my both accounts (IMAP) to check if I could reproduce your issue, but they were still syncing fine for me.
Glad you got it all sorted out.

thanks. will try it out.
I'm having trouble setting up my googlemail email account such that it 'pushes'. I have managed to setup the account where it 'pulls' email down at specified times (hourly etc.) but I cant see an option for it to rely on 'push'.
Any assistance would be gratefully received
delete your googlemail account settings and use the Outlook option instead. set the username as your email address and the server as m.google.com. push is only enabled with googlemail through an exchange setup like this and not through standard IMAP as far as I'm aware.

I have tried this and unfortunately none of my googlemail is seen by the phone!
Does anybody have this working
I am using CM 10.1. I would like to set up my outlook account on my phone. I just can't seem to get it working when trying with the exchange method. Not sure why. I tried the outlook.com app and it connects to my account but does not display any emails or calendar. Its like its not working. So I am stuck with my email set up with IMAP method. Anyone was able to set up their outlook/exchange account with email and calendar on their N4 running CM 10.1? Thanks.

In the outlook app, go to settings and increase the number of days to sync. I think the default is small (like 3 days).
As for Corporate (ActiveSync);
Email address: <[email protected]>
Password: <obvious>
-Hit cancel, or wait to fail-
Domain\Username: <[email protected]> (no backslashes)
Server is m.hotmail.com (m.outlook.com is for Outlook 360 accounts)
Use secure connection (SSL)
Port: 443
only sync "Email, Calendar, and Contacts".

I tried those steps before and again. No good. I tried getting support from Microsoft but I think I keep getting folks who are not qualified to troubleshoot with me. I'm curious if anyone is in the same boat with me or if there is something wrong? Any help is appreciated.
