Email Settings For Mobile AND WiFi

Hi everyone,
I bought an MDA Vario III on T-Mobile UK yesterday and setup email so I can send and recieve my Freedom 2 Surf POP3 email wherever I am.
I want to use T-Mobile GPRS/3G when I am out and about then switch to my ADSL WiFi Router when I am at home.
Sending and recieving worked fine using GPRS/3G and an SMTP of smtp.t-email.co.uk
When I got home and connected to my Wireless router instead recieving was fine, BUT nothing would send. I changed the T-Mobile SMTP setting to Freedom 2 Surfs (outmail.f2s.com) and all was fine.
The problem is when I go out again and want to use T-Mobile GPRS/3G it wont send until I change the SMTP settings back to T-Mobiles.
don't want to keep changing each time I want to switch connection.
I have worked around it for now by setting up 2 email accounts, one for Wifi (with the Freedom 2 Surf SMTP settings) and one for mobile (with the T-Mobile SMTP settings) but this is not ideal and I keep using the wrong one!
Have others found this problem and if so can anyone suggest a better way round the problem?
Cheers

Try using your email providers smtp server (e.g. gmails is smtp.gmail.com)

Thanks for the reply.
I have tried that. It works with my wifi connection (which uses Freedom 2 Surf for broadband) but wont send when I use T-Mobile.
Any other ideas?

The issues is that most providers have their SMTP servers set to only allow relaying from a specific set of IPs (normally their customers), so that random spammers can't use their mail servers to relay spam out to the world. You'll need to find out if your home ISP's email server supports SMTP authentication, so that you can connect to it with a username and password and it will then allow you to relay mail normally as if you were connecting from one of its authorized valid IPs.

Thanks for the reply explodinglemur. I figured that was the case as I've had trouble with SMTP settings on old handsets when changing sim & network.
I would be interested to hear how others get round this problem. Currently I have one account setup for syncing my F2S email with Outlook, another so I can send/receive my F2S email whilst mobile (using tmobile smtp settings) and a final one so I can send/receive my F2S email using wifi at home.
I am sure there must be a better way to setup email so I can lose one of the accounts?

What I do is I run sendmail on port 587 and configure SMTP to talk to my own mailserver at that port (e.g. smtp.infernix.net:587 in the smtp server config). This way no ISP filtering of port 25 gets in the way.
This does require AUTH SMTP. Configuring your mailserver is beyond the scope of this forum

I also had to setup a secondary SMTP port on my mail server because many ISP lock down TCP port 25 only to their own SMTP server.
You would need to find out if Freedom 2 Surf has/allows a secondary TCP port for this.

AOL Mail Settings - HELP ARGH!!!

I have my AOL account on my Tilt and am receiving all messages, however, it does not send messages written on the device and tells me that I should check the settings. If anyone out there has AOL setup on theirs could you please manually go through the settings for the account and type them out here so I can figure out where my problem lies.
Thanks in advance!

I dont have AOL but i'd say check your SMTP settings in your phone for that acct

already checked them and everything looks fine .... but I might be wrong. Can someone who has AOL please take the time to post their smtp settings.
Thanks!

Find the messaging feature. It should have a "Select and Account" screen. Click on Menu>Options- Look for your email service on the list, click on it. Make sure all your login info is correct. OUTGOING (SMTP) mail server for AOL is : cwmx.com, both boxes checked on that screen. Then click Advanced Server Settings. Network Connection: should be set to MEdiaNet or your primary connnection. CLICK DONE!
Let me know if this helps

I just figured it out ..... SMTP setting is as follows:
smtp.aol.com:465

sending mail via IMAP not possible

Hi @ all,
does anyone have also problems with sending mails via IMAP?
My configuration: 1.93.207.2 ROM (O2 germany)
For mail settings I set up two mail accounts (in my diamond) to the same private mailserver. One with POP3 access and one with IMAP. Receiving mails works with both accounts. Sending only with that POP3 account.
Hence it could not be an issue with the data connection settings.
I want to use only the IMAP account, but during mail sending i got the error message "mail could not be send. please check network or account settings" or similar.
I'm wondering, because both accounts use the same setting excepting the accounttype.
With my old Tytn is was working fine...
So, is here any experiance with this problem?
many thx

I have no proxy settings active. In both use cases i use identical network connection settings.
That's why I'm wondering.

I use IMAP with Gmail and need to put a different server in for outgoing mail + enable SSL.
Do you need a different server for IMAP?

No, they are also the same (it even doesnt matter in case of using POP3).

after flshing to original HTC ROM all was working fine.

IMAP is only for receiving like pop3 is
both mail accounts use smtp for sending

Probelms sending Yahoo Mail

I can recieve Yahoo email, but I can't send mail from the yahoo account. The phone set up it's own settings. Here they are
Incoming Mail Server
imap.mail.yahoo.com
Account Type
IMAP4
User name
MY EMAIL ACCOUNT
Password
Way longer than it should be (I keep fixing it, but there are about 20 characters showing, when my password is only 11 characters)
Outgoing (SMTP) mail server:
smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com
I dont have
"OUtgoing server requires authentication" checked. It was but I tried unchecking it to see if that would help and it didn't.
I do have
"Use the same username and password for sending email" checked
I have it set to send/recieve email every 5 minutes.

I have an ATT Tilt with the new 6.1 software. I haven't done any modifications only because I dont know how to.

Anyone? Now my gmail isn't letting me send mail!

Try this, Delete all your e-mail settings and start from scratch. See if it works

I have done that---lets hope that works.

Hi:
If you still have problems, try this. Do you have "Getting Started" in programs. If you select that, then choose to setup e-mail. All you have to do is enter your e-mail address, and password, and allow it to use automatic setting. I didn't even have to enter any settings, and it worked perfectly for me.
Hope this helps.

Also, did you check the Advanced Settings for your setup? Mine has "Require SSL for Incoming e-mail" and "Require SSL for Outgoing e-mail" unchecked. I am able to send/receive via Yahoo! without problems. Definitely follow everyones advice and start from scratch.

I had the annoying issue of not being able to send, only being able to receive mail.
This was with Gmail.
I tried all the 'solutions' on the Internet and even on Google's own support pages.
Strangely, I could use the POP3 service, but not IMAP.
The way I solved the issue was to delete all the settings on my Kaiser and then go into Gmail 'Forwarding and POP/IMAP' options and Disable IMAP access and click Save Changes.
Then I would go back into the options and reenable IMAP access.
Lo and behold, it worked.

Here is a supposed fix for SMTP issues, use at your own risk, I haven't had any problems so I haven't used the fix myself. http://www.tracyandmatt.co.uk/blogs/index.php/2008/10/15/windows-mobile-smtp-fix
