[Q] Problem: Only send email when connected to Wi-Fi - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm running the stock Android OS on my Captivate no changes at all. My problem is when I use the stock email client or K9 I can't send an email unless I use Wi-fi. Now if I log into my Gmail or Yahoo account using the web client I can send and receive email. I should also say that I can receive emails if I choose to manually check for new messages and sometimes it will receive messages throughout the day. It had me thinking I had some setting to check for new mail but I couldn't find it. Anyone ever had this problem and if they did how did they fix it.

It shows up in my Send Mail (Even when i look in the webmail client at my PC) but it never show up at my friends inbox.
I use Gmail. And the others Hotmail.

HELP: Pop3 messages disappearing

Hello,
I’ve been using the phone for few days now and I’m having some problems with my e-mail. I have configured three e-mails accounts, 1 Gmail and two pop 3 mails.
The deal is that whenever I use the e-mail app I can check new e-mails, but I can’t see the old messages (the one I read before). Also, alter seeing the messages in the SGS the messages disappear from the phone AND from my e-mail server. I already checked the configuration and I have selected “Never” in the “Delete e-mail from the server” in the “Incoming server settings” of both accounts but it looks like as soon as the e-mail apps access my account it actually deletes the message from the server.
Does anyone know how to solve this?
Thanks
Do they disappear immediately?
Are you sure you don't check them elsewhere (standalone computer) where they ARE removed from the server?
Don't have that issue here, only once I check them on my home computer they are removed from the server and my phone.
I'm sure. I was traveling, and the only way to chck my e-mail was using the phone. When I got home I tried to download the messages in the outlook and no messages were downloaded. Than I tried to acess the messages using webmail and again I couldn't fine the messages. They just disappeared.
Tried again with the same results. I read the messages on the SGS and 10 seconds later the message disappears from the phone and from the server (I tried to read the messages using a Webmail page and there is no message in the inbox).
Looks like a Bug, but it's strange that I'm the only one that is experiencing this issue. I recall that I had a similar issue with my Archos, but I thought it was a problem with Android 1.6. It may be a issue with my e-mail account but it is just a simple pop 3 account. I see no reason why it would behave like that.
pop3 email vanishes
I am having the same type problem with my samsung vibrant.I set up a pop3 account using my cable account. I can send and receive mail but my mail vanishes from the inbox. It does stay on the server luckily. Nobody at tmobil or samsung has a solution except to use k9 but it happens on it also/ So they blame isp which makes no sense since it arrives. Very frustrating

Can send but not receive

My tab had no problem recognizing my Outlook Express email account but it does not receive any emails. I click on my inbox and there is nothing there after sending myself emails from another email acct. and PC. However, I have no problem sending emails. It just won't receive. Any ideas? Thanks.
The native email account is pretty weak. Go to the market and try a few. I enjoy the enhanced email app.
I already have too many email addresses, a couple which are used for business and on my business cards. Changing any of them would be a huge pain. Currently, I'm having all my emails auto forwarded to my gmail account. I just have to make sure my laptop remains on while I'm gone so they get forwarded.

[Q] Immediate email notification????

I am using cammster.com as one of my security applications at home. it sends me an email when it detects motion. However, I cannnot seem to find a friendly app that will send am email immediately to my Sprint Hero.
What free email program and app can I use that will send me an email when cammster sends it out, and notify me right away.
I have tried a google account (gmail), but it seems to want to check for emails at predefined intervals when using the main email client (that I also use for a work (exchange) email address).
I tried a yahoo (ymail) app and email addy, but it would conflict with my work email and stop the program from receiving the work or the ymail mail.
I quickly tried K9 app, but couldn't figure out how to use it with the yahoo mail to notify me immediately of the new email
Any suggestions?!?!?
The gmail client does push notifications. You should use the gmail client not the mail client for a google account (gmail).

Are you on a Rom? Or are you on the stock sense rom? I am curious because sense is a bit more friendly with accounts and sync.. in the settings menu, there is actually a section called "Accounts & Sync". In there, you can enable background data and auto-sync. It will probably not be instantaneous, but honestly, your battery would die immediately if your phone was constantly checking your email. I suggest WildHeroc as it is currently the bomb digity. Have a good night.

Stock email app not retrieving emails

I'm not receiving new emails on the stock email app. I'm using the stock because Im also using Yahoo business email and Gmail as my personal at the same time. for me to see my new emails I have to open the app and click on refresh every time. can anyone tell me how to turn on push notifications that tells me when I receive new emails?
can anyone tell me if it's possible that I'm getting this problem because I have push notifications for both my emails on my iPad? I don't want to have to sign out of my email accounts on my ipad.
