AOL mail settings - PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General

Hi
I am trying to configure an Alpine to download AOL mail.
I have used the following settings:-
Incoming:IMAP.aol.com
Outgoing:SMTP.aol.com
Username and passoword is correct.
I recieve the error:
Unable to connect to the incoming mail server.
Has anyone else managed to get their AOL webmail onto the Alpine?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Does AOL offer POP3 mail downloads? You mention its webmail, which doesn't necessarily mean it has an SMTP and POP3 server available.

aol mail working
I've had aol mail working on my spv1500 for a while now my settings are
username: Your email without the @aol.com
password: your password
account type: imap4
Name: AOL
incoming server: imap.aol.com
outgoing server: smtp.aol.com:587
under options on page 2 check outgoing mail requires authentication
These settings work for me but I only use wireless connection

Many thanks
It worked.

Anyone using Yahoo UK SMTP Server on T-Mob?

I've followed this page from Yahoo UK, but having no luck connecting to the SMTP server. Can anyone confirm if these settings are correct?
Server Settings
Incoming Mail Server (POP3): pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk
Use SSL, port: 995
Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP): smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk
Use SSL, port: 465, use authentication
Account Name/Username: fred.bloggs
Email address: [email protected]
Password: Your Yahoo! Mail password
Using Vario III on standard T-Mobile W&W.
Thanks.
Setup your SMTP server to be smtp.t-email.co.uk and you can send eMails from your Kaiser. No authentication is needed and should be a lot quicker. When you connect via wifi however you will need to switch the SMTP server.
Use the normal SMTP port.
I am not aware of any software that switches SMTP servers based on the active connection used however

Indeed. This is why I wished to use Yahoo's SMTP server. So I can set it and forget it.

Mail Server Username: xxxxxxxx.com
Incoming Mail Server: mail.xxxxx.com
Incoming Mail Server: (SSL) hp1x.xxx.com
Outgoing Mail Server: mail.xx.com (server requires authentication) port 587
Outgoing Mail Server: (SSL) hp1x.xx.com (server requires authentication) port 465
Supported Incoming Mail Protocols: POP3, POP3S (SSL/TLS), IMAP, IMAPS (SSL/TLS)

I want to be able to view my emails alter\reply place in folders on the go and then re-sync when at home or something like that

can't send email with my yahoo account

so i can receive emails but not be able to send them from my x1.
any idea?
it's yahoo.com acc
You will need to install the Windows Mobile 6.1 SMTP Send fix. Search for it in Microsoft Support downloads.
downloaded the cab and installed it; still no go, can't send emails but able to receive them.
can someone show me the way to configure the settings manually step by step?
Hi
I never needed to install any smtp fixed in order to have my X1 send yahoo mail... I am using yahoo.co.uk, my settings are:
incoming server: pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk
Outgoing server: smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk
username: [email protected]
password: your password (!)
Outgoing mail server requires auth: Ticked
Use same username/password: Ticked
Require SSL for incoming email: Ticked
Require SSL for outgoing email: Ticked
Additionally, I use the 'Contract Internet' profile, and I had to remove the proxy value to get it to work (I am on Voda UK).
Note: The auto setup which the unit tries to do after you enter your email address and hit next will NOT pre-fill the correct details. Do it manually... if it refuses to let you do it manually, enter the email addr wrong i.e [email protected], complete all the settings then go and correct the email address.
Additionally, check that your yahoo account is correctly configured to allow pop3/smtp access via the usual web interface.

now that's something I didn't know, looking for it now...
*edit* lol, how do I do that?
nap007... did it work for you because i am having the same problem... i installed the fix but still cant send email
Did you input a port for outgoing? Yahoo uses 865 I believe.
sfkn2, thank you for replying to me i have been going crazy for days about this i even went to my network provider and the place where i bought the phone and called sony ericsson but they couldnt find the reason and solution to this problem of mine... so thank you very much for replying to me
Where do i input the 865 port for outgoing?
here is my email set up:
email addres: [email protected]
name: jennifer dar
account display name: yahoo!
incoming mail server: imap.mail.yahoo.com
account type: IMAP4
username: jennifer_dar
password:*********
save passwork: CHECK MARK
outgoing (SMTP) mail server: smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com
outgoing server requires authentication: CHECK MARK
use the same username and password for sending email: CHECK MARK
Require SSL for incoming email: UNCHECKED
require SSL for outgoing email: UNCHECKED
Network connection: The Internet
where in the settings should i input the port for outgoing?
i also tried to nstall the official fix before... my yahoo acount name became yahoo POP... what happened was i could not send AND recieve emails so i uninstalled it. so im back to ABLE to receive but UNABLE to send emails
smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com:865
Try that and report back.
yahoo send
still unable to send.
I have the same problem I always thought yahoo changed some thing,
then i did some searches and found some patches. they did not work.
when i run the auto setup it tries to give me a pop3 account,
this does not work at all. I set it up for a imap account i can get email again but not send.
does the smtp server need to be (smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com or can it be
smtp.mail.yahoo.com
ok got it working needed to set some ports
imap.mail.yahoo.com:143
smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com:25
same problem here....
help.. can't send yahoo email....
I got it to work by using smtp.mail.yahoo.com
I have been having trouble for months trying to figure it out & it was a simple change.
Hope it works for everyone else.
i also cant get yahoo mail to send. i keep getting the notification that it ant be sent check your incoming settings. i tried ports 143 and 25 like you said above but still nothing

yahoo email setup

Hello everyone I keep getting an error when setting up my yahoo email account with the stock email client.
-i manually choose IMAP and configure my settings to imap.mail.yahoo.com
and leave everything else as is but i still get username and password is incorrect! I have checked my username and password how many times and still not correct!!
has any one got this going for the galaxy s phones?
I haven't had any trouble setting up Yahoo Mail. I've tried stock email, K-9, and the Yahoo Mail app.
Have you tried doing it with automatic settings?
yea i tried using the stock automatic settings but still no go....
i just updated to att 2.2 firmware. mines not rooted.
Strange. For my incoming server, I've got the same IMAP as you, Security Type SSL (if available), Authentication type Plain, Port 993
Also, for Username, I just have my prefix without the @yahoo.com part
All I can think of otherwise is try the Yahoo Mail client or K-9 and see if those work.

Yahoo email

I've searched here and elsewhere but I haven't been able to find a solution. I can't get Yahoo email to work. I go to add accounts and my account adds for a few seconds and then disappears. I add my account manually following the instructions posted in many places but I get error messages for the outgoing server 503 Access denied because the server is for mobile devices only.
Manual add followed these guidelines:
Mail type: IMAP
Incoming mail server
Incoming server: palm.imap.mail.yahoo.com
Port: 993
Encryption: SSL
Outgoing mail server
Outgoing server: palm.smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Use Authentication: On
Port: 465
Encryption: SSL
I have deleted "Palm" in the outgoing sever address as suggested but that only gets rid of the error message and leaves me with no outgoing yahoo email.
Help!
Thanks
P.S. If there is a thread I missed, please send me in the right direction.
