I have this problem. I have two email accounts, let's say A and B. By default, I have checked the sending account A. Add email account to B, and I need to answer it, but, there is a problem. response will not be sent with an error message that "the server is unavailable" When I'll try setting the outgoing mail server and everything is fine. Google, Google and nothing.
Is this over wifi or mobile data? I ask because my home wifi used to block outgoing smtp servers appart from my broadband supplier.

through WIFI, and through mobile data
I found that if I add any second account and phone refuses to resist and throw email message "server is unavailable".

I keep getting invalid recipient errors for particular email addresses when sending from my xda Mini S. for example, tonight:
Your message 'RE: Online billing' was not sent and has been moved to the Drafts folder.
The following recipients are invalid:
[email protected]om
I know this address is valid. and if I send through the same account via my Pc. it works fine.
I've had the some issue with a couple of hotmail accounts too.
I'm running the latest 02 ROM. Anyone know how to fix this?
I am having the same issue, have you found a way to resolve this?
Yeah, I've found the answer: put the correct server in as your SMTP.
I am sure my SMTP server is correct, what DMTP did you use, your mobile provides SMTP or a personal one? I run my own mail server, so I know what the pieces should be

Getting the same issue - incoming works fine - outgoing does not work. I have triple checked the settings
SMTP
This problem occurs if your SMTP provider will not accept mail from off their network. In order to keep people from using their SMTP servers to spam anonymously they will only accept emails from a computer that is on their network. If you are using the SMTP of you home ISP then it sees your phone as an intruder and wont send its messages. Also some SMTP servers will accept an email from an off network computer if the recipient is on their network.
You ISP does not want anything to do with an email originating from a cellphone with a recipient on another network.
you may see if you isp will let you send the email if you login to the smtp otherwise you may need to get you cell provider to give you an SMTP
Hi All,
Anyone know the settings for sending email from my HD2. I have got incoming and outgoing set as my sky account, it receives fine but will not send. I seem to remember when I was on Orange outgoing had to be set to their address.
My local Vodaphone shop are about as much use as a chocolate teapot!
Thanks in advance......
THere is a chance that sky wont let you send unless you are connected to their network (i.e wifi)
This is to prevent people that are not sky customers using their email servers. (Same for most home broadband providers)
Firstly try ticking the 'outgoing server requires authentication' and tick same username and password. (I forget the actual wording, and i'm currently flashing a new rom so cant check it)
However, i suspect this wont work because it doesnt on my virginmedia email account, unless i'm using wifi on my virginmedia broadband at the time.
I get around this by using virginmedia for incoming., and my o2 email account for outgoing, because the o2 network DOES allow me to send from any network, so it works when on wifi or mobile.
So long as you put your sky email address in the 'your email' box the receiver will never know, and when they click reply their response will still arrive in your sky inbox.

Hi, glad you got your problem sorted. I use Sky and it took me a while to figure it out ; )
Just in case you have more problems, my emails got in a complete mess using POP3. I've no idea why, but at the time I was using Outlook on my desktop as well as accessing via my Touch Pro. Just in case you encounter the same problems, I found changing over to IMAP on both my desktop and phone solved the problem : )
Hey guys it has been working but this morning I tried sending a email from it and it came up 'Authentication failed. Please verify your username/password.'
I have checked my hotmail account on my laptop and its fine.
Any idea what up here?
Mine is playing up. Was fine but now wont let me send emails

I'm having the same issue.
I know my wife had a similar issue on her Hero once she'd done the 2.1 update, but after randomly pressing buttons it seemed to work.
I can't get anywhere with it though.
Just to add to the discussion mine seems to work well. Is it possible its a network problem?
Are you using Exchange?
Because what i know, the hotmail Exchange doesnt work in the HTC mail app (bug). You need to have the stock froyo app.

I've had problems getting changes made to mail on my DHD pushed itno my inbox - marking mail as read, deleting them etc. Will switching to the froyo app resolve this?
Could you point me in the direction of where to get the froyo app?
The problem could be caused by port blocking. This commonly happends when using a data connection provided by mobile phone providers. It could also happen when using a wifi connection depending on the actual internet provider for that wifi connection.

I would agree, but at home on my wifi I could do it on my old Touch Pro2 with no problems, but on my DHD it's not having it...
As pointed out previous it is the HTC app at fault. I've just tried it using touchdown and it works fine.

I had the same problem with my HTC Desire but I managed to get it working when I applied the following settings:
Incoming server settings:
POP Server pop3.live.com
Secuirty: SSL
Port: 995
Outgoing server settings:
smtp.live.com
Security: TLS
Port: 25

There the setting I have and it still doesnt work.
It worked fine since I got the phone but stopped working the other day
I had the same problem here on the Desire HD (Just released in Japan).
Deleting the Hotmail account from the phone and retyping in my hotmail address and password again seemed to solve the problem. (It was not sending for some reason, but it could receive.)
Try removing the Hotmail account and start again.
The phone otherwise automatically enters the details for Hotmail.
Password Length
Hooray! After hours and hours of searching various web forums, I never found an answer to the question I and several others had on why I could never get the HTC Sense Mail app to log into my Hotmail account ("Authentication Failed". And then, all of the sudden, I had an epiphany: I had strengthened up my Hotmail password before receiving this new phone and wondered if that was the culprit.
My original password was 17 characters long, so I tried using a shorter password (10 characters or less) and SUCCESS!
Although I have an Inspire 4g, the same should be true for a DHD or any other phone running Sense 2.
It appears that the HTC app is not capable of sending a longer password for verification, and likely chops part of it off when sending to Microsoft.
Anybody else have the problem of not being able to send emails over wifi but still receive them

Are you talking about Gmail or some other email provider?
If other than Gmail then try setting the SMTP server port to 587 instead of the default of 25.

Sounds like you need to check the SMTP server. Make sure it's appropriate for the ISP you're using or make sure that your email provider supports remote SMTP.
Loving my new Arc, much more fun than the iphone4
One issue though is using my Apple Mobile Me email account - this account is my main personal email account so I need to access it from the Arc.
Does anyone have the correct Incoming & Outgoing servers setting for this on the Arc..
I can receive emails but cant send? I get a "Connection error" message when trying to send..
I am using these setting under IMAP
Incoming Server
mail.mac.com
Port 994
username: your email
Pass:
Check Use secure connection
Outgoing server
smtp.mac.com
port 25
dont check use secure connection
Tks
I do not if it is always true, it was in the past.
Some operators force you to use their smtp server and not yours.
