When i was with O2 i had an email address from them and i had set my google email address up to forward any email it gets to the O2 address so i can pick them up when im not in or dont have access to a PC. When i was last with Orange, my old email address worked on my Nokia 6600 which i dont have anymore. But now on my Samsung D600, it wont work. I've downloaded the settings from the site and every time i try and check mail it waits for ages then tells me that my username/password is incorrect or there is a server error.

Here is the settings i have...

Account Name: Orange.net UK
Username: mynumber
Email Address: mynumber@orange.net
Reply Address: Blank
User ID: mynumber
Password: mypassword
SMTP Server: smtp.orange.net
SMTP Port: 25
Protocol Type: POP3
POP3 Server: pop.orange.net
POP3 Port: 110

That all seems ok... except - your username should be: yournumber@orange.net while your email address will be whatever your email address is.
