I am trying to set up my college student email account, which is hosted by google Gmail, on my dash running WM6.
The email address is "myname"@students.kennesw.edu
I tried the same pop settings as my gmail account, incoming server pop.gmail.com : outgoing server smtp.gmail.com. I also tried the server settings as pop.students.kennesaw.edu and smtp.students.kennesaw.edu.
When i try to connect to the email account from the phone i get an error to check the account name and the password. They are both correct but it will not connect. It gives me an error that it can not connect.
Any help with how to set it up is appreciated. I have my personal Gmail set up on the same phone and it works fine and i have my school address forwarding to that email but i can not reply from that address.
Thanks
I'm not sure about this but it might be students.kennesaw.edu for both POP and SMTP
have u tried using ur email addy as username, and smtp should be that or your mobile carrier

Hello,
Thank you for your report.
Configuring POP access for your Google Apps email account is very similar
to configuring it in Gmail. However, any time you're asked for your
username during the configuration process, you'll need to enter your full
email address, including your domain ([email protected]_domain.com). All other
settings are the same.
However, please note that we haven't been able to test POP access with
your mail client yet, but we're working to make our service compatible
with as many mail clients as possible. We look forward to announcing
additional compatibilities in the future.
Sincerely,
The Google Team
yup, me too
I'm having the same problem, also with students.kennesaw.edu. Love to see more info

I may be the only one interested in this but I finally figured out how to accesss my premium hotmail account from Outlook Mobile in WM6.1. I was hitting a wall when trying to setup a new account in Outlook. When I entered [email protected] on the first setup screen and hit next, I would get the screen with the link to Windows Live Hotmail. Here is how I got it to work.
When adding a new account I entered [email protected] in the email address box. This allowed me to get to the next available settings needed to configure the account. Once I configured and setup the account, I went back into the account settings and changed the email address to [email protected]. Works now!
I'm sure all of these talented people on this website already knew that but I couldnt find it anywhere.

Sorry for this.
Sorry to bump such an old thread, but google sent me this way.
Does this treat it as a pop e-mail though, or like an IMAP account?
This is great advice! I tried this approach and it worked beautifully. No additional programs required on my little device so I can check all my accounts together.
I know this sounds basic.....
I just setup an exchange mail server for an email account that I've had for a long time.
After running the exchange server config program on the device and everything is working, I'm left with an email account name of web host where I would rather it be my domain - which is how I had it setup pre-exchange.
I attempted to manually setup an account using the xchange settings, however it wouldn't work (read: not getting any email at all through exchange that way).
I went through the registry and can't find where the account names/associations are stored......
Any help? there's gotta be a name I can edit somewhere.
bump...same problem.
try this feature http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=75638&d=1205436420
Thanks for being so clear.
Hey,
Should we have pop mail settings enabled in yahoo inorder to sync HD2 with yahoo?
my ipod touch works fine with the same account, but in HD2 it keep asking me to enter the user name/password but never syncs.
I have another very old yahoo account which has pop mail settings enabled in yahoo and that works smoothly in HD2.

learn how to setup POP3 and IMAP
what you describe normally happenes when the wrong servers are in use or security is set incorrectly. i recommend you search the internet. just as FYI, I have a working Yahoo account on HD2 .
POP3 - pop.mail.yahoo.com
SMTP - smtp.mail.yahoo.com
IMAP --- imap.mail.yahoo.com
and make sure you set SSL correctly.

I was able to resolve this issue, This time i used Outlook to setup my yahoo account, but intially i was using the HTC wizard i suppose.

Yahoo Mail...Sync - Need Help Please
Hey guys, please bear with me. I am still new to this forum. I have had the very same problem with my phone. After I enter all the correct email account setting and it goes to check it, I get, "Check Username and Password and try again." and "Cannot connect to the incoming mail server. Be certain that your login information is correct, then try again to send and receive mail." I have several more Yahoo accounts and all will work on the phone. Just not 1 of them.
It hasn't always been this way. The first 2 HD2s I had, the account worked perfect. I have had a few replacements since and all react to this particular account the very same way. I have talked to T-mo C.C. and HTC C.C. and no one seems to have a clue on how to resolve the problem. I am hoping you guy can.
My "incoming mail server" settings: imap.mail.yahoo.com
"Outgoing (SMTP) mail server" settings: smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com.
The yahoo account is a free account, not a "Plus" account. Please keep in mind guys that I am a noob. Being too technical will go right over my head. Thanks..
Hi, I'm a noob. I have a work email that I think uses exchange (it's a big corporation and we have outlook/entourage in the offices). I can also access my email from anywhere via https://webmail.*****.com/
I can't figure out how to sync my mail app with that email. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Try the "Exchange by TouchDown", I'm sure will help
Are you using the default Froyo Email app? or something else?
your username/password combo should be your normal login credentials to login to the webmail service. If your company requires you to append the domain to the user name then it will look like this: domain\username
The server address will be the url of the webmail service for OWA. You may need to also allow all SSL connections for this to work properly.
Hope that helps.
there also is a chance that your company has not provisioned you for Exchange ActiveSync. If none of the above work, give your IT department a call and verify that youre mailbox is enabled for EAS
in the default htc app choose for exchange and put these exactly like underneath
e-mail adres [email protected]
server adres webmail.*****.com
password the password you use to log in to webmail
yes, your server requires an encrypted ssl connection
No domain name is required!!!
Hm. I tried everything above and still cant get it to work. Will talk to IT, thanks guys!
Hoping someone can help with this..
I'm using:
Server: webmail.company.com
Login: domain\user (not same as email)
Email: [email protected]
SSL (checked)
Accept all SSL (checked)
This has always worked in the past but recently stopped. When setting this up now I get an error: "You typed an incorrect server address or the server requires a protocol version that Email doesn't support".
Using all these settings in K9 mail I get a similar error. With K9 mail however I have the option to add a "Mailbox Alias". When I add [email protected] into the Mailbox Alias field it works.
Ideally I'd like to continue using the default Email app and Calendar but since there doesn't appear to be anyplace to add a Mailbox Alias in the default client I cannot. I am using that mailbox alias as the email address I enter when setting up the Email client.
It's not a company issued phone so there isn't much I can do as far as having changes made on the server. I believe they must have done an update or changed some setting, as there was an email that the OWA server was being restarted which preceded these problems.
I tried setting this up on an iPhone this evening. It didn't give the same error but rather just wouldn't connect to the same server. This previously worked as well as I had tried an iPhone briefly a few months ago.
It seems that no one else at work that collects email with their stock Android Email.apk is having any issues. I would assume at this point it is some kind of account problem, but I am using the same info as listed above in my work laptops Outlook client for collecting mail via https when not connected to VPN. I'm also using those settings on a Macbook in Entourage to connect to exchange, though I believe that uses webdav. Both of those clients continue to work, and as mentioned above, k9 works when adding my email address to the Mailbox Alias. I was also able to get TouchDown working though I'm not that interested in buying it.
If anyone has anything I'd love to hear it.
thanks!
This appears to be the issue that I'm having.

It seems to be an account/permissions related problem though I don't really understand why adding a mailbox alias with K9 resolves the problem, though the above OP mentions his worked with Touchdown when it wasn't working with default email.apk.
