Its a right pain setting up POP3 mail acocunts, in fact I've never had one working.
Currently I've solved my Yahoo and Hotmail accounts by using Windows Live and forwarding all my mails from yahoo to hotmail.
But I've got another POP3 account that wants money to set up mail forwarding. Sod that me thinks.
I'm 100% sure that all my settings for POP3 mail retrieval are correct,
INCOMING: pop3.graffiti.net
OUTGOING:smtpx.graffiti.net
USERNAME: [email protected]
P/W: XXXXXX
all yes to outgoing secure authentification, and same ID for sending emails.
but no dice grandma, no emails and a message telling me that im not connected or have incorrect account settings.
My internet connection works fine 3G and GPRS, I use it all the time, I have tried to retrieve emails while synced and while roaming, still no luck.
Anything I'm being thick about, or is the POP3 mail facility in WM6 just really fickle and buggy?
Thanks in advance for all help
Pop3 is fine. I have never had any issues with it in WM2003, WM5 and WM6.
I don't know graffiti.net personally. but a quick look at their login page and the fact they have a link to "interaction with other devices" or something like that suggests that you need to enable it on their website.
(Yahoo email requires you to log in to the webmail client and enable pop3 forwarding and access before you can access your emails via outlook or on your device and I am going to guess that graffiti make you do something similar)
Here in the states on AT&T I have to use the AT&T smtp mail server for sending email, but getting my POP3 email works fine. have you ever had your graffiti pop3 account working somewhere else?
okay i have a yahoo account with yahoo personal address package. any email that i use with the personal package is sent to my yahoo account and when i send a email from yahoo it uses that email in stead of the @yahoo.com email. now what i need is this
when i setup xpress mail useing the yahoo tab it is sending email from my pocket pc as the @yahoo.com email and it uses my full name instaed of what i have it setup with. it will not use my personal address email even though i have it setup in yahoo and the yahoo settings are the same. now i can chose other in the xpress mail setup and either choise imap or pop. then enter the email address that is my personal address email and then when i send email from my device its the one i want to use but i lose the instant push option and i have to maunal get my email. so what i need is the settings that xpress mail uses when i setup useing the yahoo feature. i cant see the settings because all it asks if the user name and password. so i need to know what xpress mail is useing for setting for yahoo to get the instant push working?

I set up ActiveSync / DirectPush link on my Xperia for my private mail.
Now I can forward my business mail and have it put in a separate folder on my exchange account. However, I would need to send from my business account too. However, I can only set up a POP/SMTP or IMAP/SMTP combination.
What I want, however, is only send through smtp and save the outgoing mail on my exchange account. In Outlook 2007 this is partly possible - only problem there is that I still need to configure a pop account.
Any ideas?
Hey guys,
Anyone of your experienced such problem?
I create an exchange activesync account for google. and then input all the information correctly such as the server name, username, password,
Then I select sync mail, calendar, contact, and push. After click finish, it always returns "authentication failed"
Anyone know what's going on?
Probably u have to enter a captcha trough the website (this can be done from a pc) or you have the wrong credentials.
Edit: or your internet doesn't allow you to connect, (business firewall?)
Edit 2: Google is no exchange, just use the default Google account option.

If you use the default mail client, you can set up Google via IMAP.

This does not work either. I have just purchased a HTC Desire S and cannot get a Google Apps working through either IMAP or Exchange.
Infact, any time I have tried to add an account via. Exchange I see that error message (Hotmail/Google Apps account).
It seems that imap.google.com is down from my limited tests, and I would want exchange support.
What gives, is the Mail client on the Gingerbread phones broke?
Cheers

I don't think you can connect through Google Mail via Exchange. Exchange is only meant for connecting to MS Exchange servers.
You have the following two choices:
- Either run the standard GMail client.
- Or run the standard Mail Client and connect via IMAP.
What exactly do you mean when you say you want "Exchange Support"? If you want Exchange support, you should look at Exchange-based email services.
BTW, I have no issues connecting to GMail's through IMAP using the default email client nor do I have issues with connecting through the GMail client.
Thanks for your reply.
Actually gmail can be accessed via exchange. As I used before in iOS. You can find it under the webpage of google/sync.
There's explicit tutorial for ios user to set up an exchange server for gmail. The mails is pushed to the client rather than retrieving them every certain time.
server is: m.google.com
user name: [email protected]
password: xxxx

That's using Google Sync (Google Sync uses the MS Exchange Activesync protocol) for the iPhone. One the Incredible S (as on the other Android phones), you do not need to use Google Sync to get push email (in fact I don't think Google Sync is available for Android phones). All you need to do is set up your Google Account and have it sync the calendar, phone book and email and you'll have everything working.
I'm not sure why you want to go via the iPhone(Exchange) route when there's a simpler (and more native way) of getting your Google mail set up with your Android phone.
Thanks man.
I know I can get push gmail from the built-in app. But what I want is to receive all my mails in just one app. Cuz I have 4 email account, which includes my school account, department account, and others, while I still want to get my gmail pushed.
Thanks for your explanation, that makes sense. I also live in Victoria, lol

The in-built google account does not seem to work for Google Apps accounts? as in anything that doesn't end in @gmail etc?
If I try the imap settings, I get an error message saying that the phone cannot connect to the server?
That is using "imap.google.com". Should the phone accept google apps accounts through the native google account provider?
And Android does work fine with Google Sync, at least it does on the Galaxy S I have.
Cheers,
MiG

It does work as I have my Google Apps account working with both the GMail and standard mail client.
When you set up your Google account, ensure that the sync for mail is on. That should set it up to work with your GMail client.

Just tried this. It says the username/password is not recognised through the built-in GMail App.....
Are there any settings I have to enable?
Most people missing the point here though? I too want to use the HTC Mail client (as I'll be honest, GMail client sucks) and IMAP only does mail, most of the time it syncs just fine using m.google.com but sense 2.1 (and 3.0) regularly get auth error's, and only go back to push mail when that's cleared or you launch the mail app to set the sync off again. It's deffo a sense issue as sense 2.0 Roms dont have the issue. It's seems to do with the way HTC have implemented their ActiveSync V14.x protocol stuff or how Google have (as sense 2.1/3 both try v14.1 first, then fail back to 12.x)
Hey ho, might dig around a bit more as there is some errors in the logs, might be able to track it down, might also ping a question over to HTC.
Seem to have fixed it, and it's a easy (if odd) fix,
Login on PC to GMail (or app for domain in my case) and change your password, change it on phone
All sorted... Dont ask me why?
So i tried a lot of things and nothing worked also hard reset, chang password from gmail account.
it´s only with the gmail all other email provider are working find and fo me i don´t like to have 2 email app´s because gmalapp is working fine but the i have to use the other app for my work and i don´t prefer it.
hope anybody can help.

Guys, the thing is, the default gmail app is HIDEOUS with no pinch to zoom, it f's up formatting in portrait, and is just really low quality.
The HTC mail app looks A LOT better, but problem is, if you don't set gmail up as Exchange, it fails cause it won't push.
At first on the Note I used the Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail apps to get my emails rather than use the stock email program. I tried today to set up my yahoo email, made sure it was configured online for pop3 access yet on the Note when I go through set up and enter the email address and password I get an error saying incorrect email address or password which cannot be as they are correct.
Any ideas why this is happening?
other than making sure that you are typing the email address and password correctly.... i really do not have any argument to make. different yahoo address like .co.uk use different pop3 and smtp address. regular users need to subscribe to plus services.
Yes yahoo pop access is paid service, you need to subscribe plus service.
Juast try to use imap service in stock email application, not sure but may work. If you are not happy with yahoo mail appl, find seven 7.54 apk on xda, i have uploaded few time back, one of good n real push support for yahoo.
