Is anyone having connection problems with IMAP on 6.1.I can downlaod fine but it will not send. the only way that I can get this to work is if I delete the settings and then set up the email again. im using the correct setting found on here it will work for a few weeks but then all of a sudden it will stop sending oit the messages. They just store in my outbox when i click send and receive I get a connection error which i already know works fine.
It just stops sending all of a sudden for no reason. maybe its a Gmail prob I think. Any one have this happening as well?
I use Tmobile USA internet plan. the POP3 works fine but I prefer the IMAP for better sync options with my folders.
thanks

Gmail problem unfortunately, also happens on my computer once in a while.
Same exact problem over here. I'm gonna call T-mobile this week.
It's happening all the time. I guess it could be that smtp.gmail.com uses a different trusted CA and that this CA isn't trusted on the WM 6.1 ROM? Alcaline, any ideas? (highly unlikely)
I didn't notice until Friday, and I had been sending email as usual for over a month and it was all sitting in my outbox.

Hi,
Shure it could be that a certificate is needed.. But if it works sometimes?

It works no times.
I can only imagine it never worked, although I didn't notice. I mean, it must be a different cert; but for them to use a CA that isn't trusted by Windows Mobile seems pretty silly. Let me know if you need recon.
[UPDATE]
Alright. Looks like several ports are widely reported as blocked when using certain plans. I assume the plan I have is one of these plans. Others claim that "routing" your email through t-mobiles smtp server works. Although, with my plan, I do not have any email addresses attached to my account.
Reportedly smtp.gmail.com uses three ports to route to their smtp server(s): 25, 465 and 587. Tested telnet connections to smtp.gmail.com:25 and smtp.gmail.com:587 worked, smtp.gmail.com:465 failed.
Regardless of my findings, both working ports don't work from my phone; so I attribute this to t-mobile. I'll call them, but expect their answer will be something to the effect of "we block communication over those ports for people without the $15 data plan."
FYI: My service is from work... I swapped my SIM into my S730 from a blackberry. The account has the BES/BIS feature, but no true data plan.
Use m.gmail.com via a web browser to compose emails.
I've played with the port setting and still nothing I just deleted my account on my phone and wet it up again it will work for about 1 week then it just stops again. i do have the $20 data plan. I switched back to the damn POP3 for right now. IMAP works great for my desktop.
hopefully the support will be available soon or someone comes up with something.
Thanks,
Hi all,
Anyone else experiencing problems sending mail?
Incoming works fine (I have my own settings in there - POP3 etc) but sending has recently stopped.
I use smtp.t-email.co.uk (no authentication) and it has been working fine. Doesn't matter what network connection I use.
Error: "The message(s) could not be sent. Check that you have network coverage and that your account information is correct. Then try sending again."
Any ideas guys?

Yeah, im getting it too.
Same - I suspect that tmobile changed something in its settings or perhaps the ISP we all use stopped accepting smtp traffic from tmobile.
There was some talk a while ago about TM UK barring smtp through smtp.t-email.co.uk if they thought you were spamming but I think they were supposed to send you a message/letter to tell you they were stopping it. Might be worth a call to customer services?
Nah i wouldnt worry too much, it happens with T-Mobile every now and then, last time it happend to me was about 2 months ago, for about 1 and a 1/2 days

Still happening --- maybe about 4 or 5 days now.
Thought it might just be me ... very surprised at the response.
I'll dig around a bit more and call T-Mobile tomorrow.
Maybe worth having a look at this on the T-Mobile site: http://www.t-mobile.co.uk/help-and-advice/phone-support/
I think you can set-up email from there.

Well that didn't work!
I have just started getting this problem too. I use tmobile uk and can receive ok and I am with plusnet but am sending via tmomile. It was working fine - please help.
Im afraid to say that ive had this problem for over a month now... i havent had the time to really go into things & find out the problem, so i've just been going to my gmail account thru PIE and replying to emails that way...
it would be nice if t-mob could actually not screw things up... i tried that t-mob help link... didnt work either
Same here, has been like this for 4 or 5 days now.
I deleted my POP account and set it up again, still the same problem.
This has happened to me in the past, normally resolved itself in a day or so.
Back Online.
Just to let you know it must be back online as ive been sending and receiving messages all day.
Yep, mine too - must have been down fo about a week...
What are they playing at?
Well, that didn't last long. Back to probldems...
Called T-Mobile today as problem re-appeared pretty quickly.
I was advised by technical support that I should be using smtp.t-email.co.uk (no authentication) but I have been using this anyway.
He said that there has been issues with the smtp server that they were informed were fixed today. He repeated this a couple of times.
He said to give it another 24 hours to see if things resolve.
HTH
I called T-mobile yesterday about this.
they have brought the server down as the was too much spamming going on. I explained to the support manager that this is not a good thing! I explained I had been using it for 4 years and it is splattered all over their documentation to use it and if they are now suddenly removing it, then as far as I was concerned I could terminate all 3 phones we have on the account as they are all advertised as having "Windows email" facilities. She did tell me that their department had been inundated with calls regarding this.
To cut a long stroy short she agreed to give me £5 off my Web 'n' Wlak package for 3 months, as Germany have told them it maybe down for 3 months while they reseasrch alternative solutions. She couldnt give me money off because of this exact issue as its a free service, and so she could authorise the £5 a month off it was because I couldnt utilise my Web 'n' Walk package fully.
So...call them up and say youre not happy. Explain that you cannot do something which is advertised on their website and youll get "compensation"

Hmm ... thats interesting, and also a pain in the arse.
I don't see how they are receiving more spam than any other smtp server out there. Thing is, if I could use my usual smtp server that I use for work, I wouldn't mind, but this also does not work. I use the same settings as on my desktop PC and get the same error message.
It's so frustrating -- especially as this is a key feature of the PDA ... not being able to use email is worse for me than not being able to text (which was also knackered today, now resolved).
I will call back tomorrow and discuss this with them...
Thanks for the update.
Right then, its just stopped working for me again... until I put the proxy server IP address back in, then it started working again.
Can someone else try this so we rule out this being a "one off".
The address is 149.254.201.132 and http port 8080

I had the same problem with Telia here in Denmark, except that sending e-mails didn't work from day 1 with the TYTN II. So I didn't really know what was the problem - the TYTN II or the smtp server (which btw worked fine with my Treo 650). But all of a sudden, smtp started working without me changing a bit on the TYTN II. So I figured it must have been something wrong with the smtp server. Funny thing is though, while searching for the error, I downloaded a third party e-mail application (can't remember the name), and that sent e-mails through the smtp server just fine, while pocket outlook did not. Go figure!
Yesterday morning suddenly couldn't send yahoo emails (could still received them). I've never had a problem before.
I reset the email settings and still didn't work just got the error message 'check network coverage etc'
Only wouldn't work on GPRS, fine on wireless so I figured isp wasn't happy with smtp settings. I tried port 465 and 2525 on the original yahoo settings but no luck so looks like Three (3) have blocked access to the yahoo smtp server - thanks Three! :<
Have now changed to smtp-mbb.three.co.uk and I'm able to send again, might work for you if you come up against the same thing.
The smtp-mbb.three.co.uk server works, but pretty slowly and I've got a nasty feeling I may get charged per mail so I'm keeping a very close eye on my bill.
Anyone else experienced the same thing in the last couple of days or have any other sugggestions?
(I'm on WM 6 not 6.1 so not the secondary server issue btw)

Hi,
I have had my Touch Diamond2 about a year but today (or maybe in the past day or so) I have started having an issue with SMTP outgoing mail. Incoming seems to work fine but outgoing I get a "System Administrator" message instantly with the following.
554 5.7.1 <[email protected]> Recipient address rejected: Access denied
It does not matter what email address I send to, this has just started happening.
Is it an issue with my phone or have Orange UK done something at their end or the server, I am on the Orange UK network, using smtp.orange.net as I have done for the past year?
All other internet browsing seems fine as well as incoming mail.
The phone is using the latest WM6.5 EU rom standard from the HTC site.
Cheers,
I would try to delete the account and set it up from scratch again.
Did you re-verify that your SMTP is still correct?
Thanks for the input.
It seems now you have to authenticate on the SMTP server with an Orange email account even when on the Orange network. No idea why thats suddenly happened as the phone has been fine for the past 14 months!
Cheers,
Mike
I've just started having this strange issue on my Xperia Z running KK.
An email account set up on the phone was previously working fine, and all of a sudden, I can no longer retrieve email from it. All settings are the same and I haven't changed anything, it's an IMAP account.
Rebooting the phone doesn't change anything.
I have other email accounts on the same server and they all work so it's not a server-side thing. I can still pick up the problematic account on my other devices and PCs, it's just the phone that no longer works.
Strange thing is that if I delete the account, then put it back in, it works for some time, then after an hour or so, I get the same Connection Error - Could not log in. The notification just says "The username or password for <account> is incorrect. Update them now?" I can put in the correct details, but it just doesn't work.
Any idea how to debug or get the real reason? I can't seem to find any logs that give more information as to what exactly it thinks is the problem.
Problem solved
I've checked the mail server, and its settings were limiting to 10 connections per IP which I was reaching with the phone! Feel a bit stupid now. :silly:
But for info, is there any debugging logging available for the default Sony email app to get to the root of the problem on future issues?
