Email Setup problem

[gbogart100]

Hello everyone,

I'm having trouble setting up email for my mogul. After I set up my email, I am able to receive mail from Yahoo, or where ever, but I am unable to send emails out. Any suggestions. I had this problem on my touch pro too for my school email.

have you brought it to the repair center and have them take a look at it? if it doesnt work and you have insurance they will have to give you a new or refurbished depending on what they have in stock.

You need a popserver address to receive and a smtpserver address to send mail. Contact your provider

I dont know anything about yahoo mail but if are able to use a filter or forward (I personally use Gmail, which has a filter for forwarding), you can also use mail2web. It will also sync your contacts, tasks, calendar etc. If this might work for you, and the mods will allow I will post a quick note on how I got mine up and running. HTH

yeah of course you can post it up bro, we are all here to share our experiences and help as much as we can :glasses1:

from what i have read yahoo will only allow outlook syncing, (pop3) if you have a paid account...

If yahoo only allows pop3, then I dont think that this will work, but might be worth some investigation by someone more familiar.

goto

live.mail2web.com

and open a free account. You will actually be setting up an email account. Write down the server settings (for activesync) which will look like "mobile.exchange.mail2web.com".

go to your email and try to find a setting for forwarding Email. On Gmail, you can go to filter and then set up a filter and set a forwarding address, "youraccountname@mail2web.com". On Gmail you can also set a filter so that you can have less imporant things filtered out, before forwarding.

On your device, get into activesync and hit Menu->configure server

You should start with a screen that is for the server address. This is where you put in, from above, "mobile.exchange.mail2web.com". I dont have the encryption checked (from my understanding many work type email programs and access will require this. I dont use this for my employer email, they get enough out of me when I am there!)

type in your user name (yoursuername@mail2web.com) and password. I left domain blank, and checked save password (that way it can run automatically) Choose the settings that you want synced.

I think that should just about cover it....I might have missed a little thing here or there but for hte device configuration, i looked at my device as i was typing so that should all be right.

I believe that you can also accomplish much of the activesync settings by setting up a new Outlook account on your device. If I remember correctly it will go to the same area.
