Try using Vodafone's SMTP server - smtp.vodafone.net

ntlworlds smtp server doesn't accept connections from devices outside of the Virgin Media network.

hmm, doesn't seem to be working, stuck on verifying at the moment, i'll expect to error in a min or 2.

Any other ideas?

Thanks

Hmm, very odd. I don't suppose you have a GMail account do you? I think you can use the Google SMTP server if you have a gmail account.

Exactly what i thought too. the strange thing is, is that it worked fine on my old blackberry.

It is definitely smtp.vodafone.net. Is there a specific port number i have to use?

You could try these vodafone SMTP servers:

Email SMTP server: send.vodafone.net
Email SMTP server: smtp.vizzavi.co.uk
Alt email SMTP server: mail.vizzavi.co.uk
Alt email SMTP server: mail.vodafone.net
Alt email SMTP server: 212.183.156.229
Alt email SMTP server: 62.213.128.092

I believe it's normal for the verifying to take a minute or two. As it tries an SSL connection first. It should then prompt you to connect without SSL then it will work. My friend uses send.vodafone.net on her iPhone.

I had this problem the other day when trying to send an e-mail on a 3g connection rather than the wi fi I had been using at home.

You can actually set up more than one SMTP server so have all options covered so it can send e-mails no matter where you are or what type of connection you are using.

I set mine up with the Primary SMTP server being the one I have set up on outlook at home and the 'Other SMTP server as smtp.o2.co.uk (but use your own network's SMTP instead, obviously).

It did take a while to varify the settings and then I did have to got through the 'connect without SSL' option, but once done I can send and receive e-mails just how I would want to .

Hope that helps in addition ot the other useful info that has already been posted.

Have you tried smtp.virginmedia.com, as I just had a look at mone also on a iPhone4 and that is what I have the smtp for that email account set as.

for Vodafone you need to use send.vodafone.co.uk
if it aint .co.uk it will be .net or .com
