P910i - email

rdbaker · 28-11-2005, 11:40

Has anyone with the 910i got their email client to send AND receive emails OK - I can get mine to send but receiving seems to be a problem.

Does anyone have the solution??

Have you checked that your POP server is correct? E.g: Could be pop3.xxx.com rather than pop.xxx.com

I went onto the SonyEricsson site and they sent through all the settings to me automatically - So I wouldn't know what's right and what's wrong.

I couldn't receive with O2 contract. Subsequently I changed over to Orange and it works well, both contract and PAYG.

But surely that asked you to put in the details of yur email account? You DO have a pop3 email account right? you didn't just make stuff up did you?

The outgoing and incoming server addresses were sent automatically - on the web they have a selection of ISP's to choose from and you just choose the one you use e.g. yahoo. They then send all the setting to you via SMS.

But do you have a POP3 account with yahoo? It's not always available and when it is you have to switch iton from your yahoo settings.
If it's switched on okay but still not working then can you post the error message you get when trying to send/recieve, it should be possible to work out what's going wrong from that.

Yes - it times out and says 'problem copying messages'? any ideas?

that could be down to the size of your inbox. I've seen this come up before if there's a huge number of mails on the server. I'd be inclined to try deleting as many messages as possible from the inbox and trying again.
