Best way to set up mail??? - Touch Pro, Fuze General

Don't know why, but I have to log in to Live to be able to update the TF3D tab mail. If I don't log in first, TF3D will try to connect via MediaNet. So I've asked this question and have given up on finding an answer---so, here's another ????
What is the best way to set up my msn account with the phone?
Is it better to go through the TF3D tab and select 'new account' (to which I need help figuring out incoming and outgoing servers to)
Or set up mail through Live (which I did before on my Tilt and worked perfectly fine with TF2D)
I'm sure I'm missing a step somewhere...and I have all connections go through my work network--to avoid even trying to connect to 3g/MediaNet, as I am poo poo poor and don't have a data plan.
Thanks

AT&T email sync problem

Ok so I flashed to WM6.1 got everything finally going and decided to get my email setup. Got my yahoo mail account and my gmail account started then tryed to sync and keep getting this message:
Dialed: isp.cingular
Cannot connect for an unknown reason.....
I think i need to manually set something up, possibly "My ISP" in settings. Can someone please inform me. I searched, but couldn't find a thing on 6.1 and AT&T.
Thanks

Here are the settings you should use.
trying to locate the ATT proxy manager.....anyone have it close by?
It sounds like the same problem I had.
You need to change the advance server settings on the individual accounts to use medianet. You can find the setting in onhthe Outgoing mail server page when you are checking the setting on the email accounts.

changed settings and rebooting as we speak.
now I get this message
Cannot connect with current connection settings
tried to remove and restore proxy settings with no luck
having the same issue, any more ideas out there?
I had this problem also.. this is why I went back to 6.0
ok so with WIFI connected I am able to sync my email. when I set the connection to Media Net, Work, and The Internet I get the error sync message. I have removed and restored proxy.
anything else?
I think there could be a larger problem. My Internet stopped working late Tuesday (Feb 5, 2008) afternoon. A quick perusal of the Kaiser and Kaiser upgrading etc. forums in looking for a solution to my problem suggests others may be experiencing the same thing.
Can only get online using PIE
I cant use AT&T internet on certain apps?
Opera Mini works but not PIE?
Internet stopped working on my Tilt at around 8pm PST today. Seems to be working fine now though.
Similar problem here
Running Dutty 6.1 Beta. 2 yahoo accounts, 1 gmail - tried auto and manual IMAP configuration. None can connect using MediaNet. However, both Internet and Outlook push from exchange server work fine.
Turn on Wifi, then Yahoo/Gmail work. Connect through USB ActiveSync, then Yahoo/Gmail work. Very strange...
Hey guys, its not an upgrade issue, its a network issue, here's some more info over here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=366104
ok so with everything set to connect via Media Net I get not connection, still get the error.....WELL.....this morning I work up and the phone had sync'd?
What the heck? So i am guessing the connection is set correct, maybe I just have a stubborn phone? I will test and try things out today
I had the same problem Post 2 and 4 fixed my problem.

I can't believe I missed that setting! That was it! It was default to "The Internet".

Thanks for this post, dragonacc, you just saved my butt after I installed a new ROM!!
I had the same issue moving to Dutty's DualTouch v4, so it has nothing to do with 6.1 vs 6.0. It was the "by default" setting. Turns out that streaming media and Pocket Outlook were trying to use the "My ISP" setting rather than MediaNet. Fixing the default fixed it for them, too.

Trouble with radio on Tilt

So after trying what seems like an endless number of radios, I'm unable to send emails from my phone using Gmail. Before flashing Hyperdragon III onto my phone, I was able to send/receive email no problem. Now I'm only able to receive, can't send email at all - says Unable to send message(s) - error synchronizing.
If someone could point me in the right direction, that would be awesome. This is starting to get frustrating.
start, settings, connections, manage existing, proxy settings, un-check this network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet
Checked that and the option to use a proxy is already disabled. Any other ideas? Definitely appreciate the suggestion tho.
PS. I also have the cabs to enable/disable the cingular/att proxy and neither makes a difference. Before changing the ROM, emails would send regardless of which setting I used. Hope this helps.

Edit Account setup, then keep hitting mext until you get to the outgoing server settings and after "smtp.gmail.com" add ":587" to the end.
Worked immediately for me. It has to do with the new server authentication that wm6.1 or something requires.
Hope that fixes your problem! let me know if I need to be more specific, I'm at school and I gotta run.
Tried that and no dice. Does seem to be a WM6.1 issue though from what I've been reading.
maybe you should flash different HyderDragon...as there are two new versions came out. Or maybe try to flash the radio...Do you know what radio version you were using before flashed to HDIII?
Don't think it's the radio at this point. I've tried most of them in an attempt to fix the problem, but the 6.0-6.1 upgrade seems to be the culprit.

it prolly is, i mean since its release theres been all sorts of bugs reported ( as well as with HPD III, hence why i wont flash it ) but imo what u should do is start over..
re-flash, get ur new radio and take it from there
Jstar
try running the remove hidden proxy cab and then run the restore hidden proxy cab. i had this problem with gmail before and i think thats how i fixed it. it has nothing to do with the radio your using. just go to at&ts site and look up the connection settings and make sure everything makes sense...
If that doesn't work.
You could always try this.
I seriously doubt this is a radio related issue

Checked that already, too. I'm not exactly a total noob I've had all my stuff working perfectly until upgrading to WM 6.1. The Hyperdragon rom was after the initial upgrade from 6-6.1. Email sending (receiving is fine) through my Gmail accounts just doesn't seem to work now. I suppose I can go back to stock, but... *shudder*

Using WM 6.0 for "temporaly" SYn e-mail.

Hi, I need a "direction" for solve this problem.
My father is living in a place without wireless connection, and he need to go to the middle of lagoon to get signal (EDGE/GSM).
In the boat he call your friend and send/receive e-mail.
He like to go back to home, synch WM 6 whit PC and real all received mail.
Then, in PC, answer mail's, create new and synch again whit WM6.
Go to center of lagoon and send it.
I say it that it not work, but... well is my father!!!...
¿Can help my?
As far as I know its not possible to sync and send from the phone not the PC. Maybe just have him get a bluetooth keyboard so that he can type messages more easily on the phone.

Gmail error

Hello...
After putting a new ROM on my phone...I'm having a weird issue. First off, I've double and triple checked my settings and they match what gmail requires and how it was set before the new ROM. secondly, all other data services (weather updates, web browsing, phone class, SMS, etc.) are working perfectly.
But if I try to send an email or manually send/receive, my phone pops out a message from my data connection that says "cannot connect: cannot connect with current connection settings. to change your connection settings, tap settings." and then provides a settings link and dismiss button. The rom used the auto config for ATT which seems to have gotten everything else working as expected, but I simply cannot send / receive email.
If i login to gmail directly from opera, everything works fine - but i cannot receive updates right away - slightly annoying.
Where it gets even weirder is the gmail java app will not download or send messages either.
Does anyone have any idea what may be wrong? Would this be a rom specific issue - or is a configuration for my phone wrong?
Thanks in advance everyone
hate to bump...but just curious if anyone else has experienced anything like this.
thanks.
I'm assuming when you typed in your Gmail address, Windows stated it found the setting and configured everything for you. The problem is Windows configures your Internet connection to be "The Internet". Deep inside the Gmail settings their is an option to change this to "MEdia Net". This may be your problem.
Go to MENU, then TOOLS, then OPTIONS, then click on GMAIL. Then click on EDIT ACCOUNT SETUP, then NEXT 4X, then ADVANCED SERVER SETTINGS. Then change THE INTERNET to MEDIANET. Then some more dones, and nexts, and finish. Hopefully this is the problem for you.
I've had similar problems and got to the point where I suspect it is something to do with ActiveSync.
I could receive emails, but not send emails, unless I deleted my account and reset it up again (not ideal). I started to realise this happened after I had connected via USB to certain connections, i.e. not a charger and not a computer, for example a USB car charger. In these situations the message would pop up asking me what I wanted to connect as: ActiveSync, External Harddrive or whatever the other option is.
It seems to me like the phone wasn't getting the right message and was then getting itself very much confused.
Deleting the account and resetting it up helped. Eventually (last weekend) I have Hard reset.
I'm also careful about which USB connections I now use.
Don't know if this provides some insight or use?
UPDATE: THis just happened to me again and I should point out that I don't use gmail, it's my own domain mail hosted by EasySpace. I suspect the problem is HTC Touch Pro though. I have been listening to music on my Touch Pro with a USB multi connector (3.5mm + power + other USB) connected. Wrote an email and it wouldn't send. Disconnected the cable, still wouldn't send, stopped all running apps (Messenger, ActiveSyn, Windows Media), restarted Messenger and did a send receive. This time it worked.
For me this is definitely a dodgy ActiveSync issue.
Additional gmail problems
I've also had email problems using GMail. I originally set up my gmail account as a pop account (I have my own domain forwarded there) and wanted it to reflect my address as my domain. It originally connected and started downloading the emails. Then the account vanished! The emails are still there and taking up the first account slot in my TF3D, but when I go to accounts it is not listed. After a hard reset I restored with PPM backup and it placed the emails back in there, but still no account listed. I also can't open the emails, I just see the envelope icon with the preview of the last message downloaded. I've since added gmail as IMAP, but also had trouble with that in not being able to send emails. I deleted the account and then added again (IMAP) to try and by-pass the auto setup the phone does for GMail, but still no luck. What's worse, it's added this addition to the 3rd little envelope icon in TF3D, so now I have 1. Non-functioning account 2. Empty 3. Current IMAP
Anyone know where this data is stored so I can at least go clear out the first 2 slots so the current account being used will be the first one in the list? Also, anyone figure out the fix for sending emails? I'll try the advanced setting change from The Internet to MediaNet and see if that works. It's rather pointless having the emailing picture phone that you can't email pictures from!
Changed 'The Internet' to MediaNet, still no go on the sending.

email problems

hi,
i am having an issue on my TytnII where i cannot get my email to download from Yahoo.
in pocket outlook, almost mediately when i click send/receive i get 'error syncronising' in bottom left hand corner then a bubble appears with 'cannot connect : cannot connect with current connection settings....'.
any idea whats causing this?
i can get web access no problems and all other comms seem to work fine. Just can't get email to work.
any help appreciated!
p.s. my phone is a UK O2 Stellar (unlocked) and i'mm on t-mobile, dunno if that makes any difference. Standard 02 ROM i think.
if you're positive that your out and inports are set correctly
and ssl and the likes are set correctly
then maybe your cellphone network may be blocking those ports
in which case you can try the same using wifi bluetooth or usb to performe
the same operations
using Wifi i can get a bit further so there is definately and issue with my email contacting the mail server via GSM.
But i think there are also issues with my setting so i will try that first, when i get it working solid through wifi i will try to sort the GSM issues.
thanks,
i have it working fine over wifi now but still having same issue with GSM.
any idea how to resolve? change ports?
i had email working fine on my old phone (hermes) using same SIM and email address.
hi,
i am still experiencing the problem listed in the initial post.
I can connect to internet and browse websites, can access mail on yahoo website, MMS and SMS both work fine but still get 'error syncronising' and 'cannot connect : cannot connect with current connection settings....' when i try to use pocket outlook to download my POP mail.
it works fine when usig WiFi so must be an issue to do with the setting that pocket outlook uses for connecting to web but i cannot see where i can change this.
any help appreciated.
all the experts on this forum who know WM inside out and noone has even a suggestion to help with this problem?
sorry if it is too simple for you, but quite simply, i don't know how to fix it!
Hmmm,
I would say you answered your own question! It just looks like your GSM network provider is blocking this ports since your email settings seem to be correct (otherwise it would not have worked via Wi-Fi either!), so, you will have a hard time finding a solution.
However, here a not-so-convenient workaround:
If you can access other (non-YAHOO) pop-email accounts, try to forward all incoming YAHOO email to that email account, then set also your outgoing messages regarding to the functioning pop email account but as reply email use the YAHOO.
Try to contact your GSM network provider's technical stuff to verify your settings / ports. If they can asure you that this ports are not blocked, well, then there is only 1 other party to contact: YAHOO themself!
If you are a paid YAHOO SUBSCRIBER and you upgraded to the pop email account at YAHOO, they might be able to walk you through. If you use only YAHOO's free email: the free service does not work with pop email clients - only via their webmail.
hi,
thanks for the suggestions.
i am fairly convinced it is nothing to do with Yahoo as i can access when using wifi so that rules them out (no?) it also confirms the pop settings etc are correct as i can send and received mail with no problems.
using GSM I can access the rest of the web and i have previously used the same sim in another WM device to access email with no problems so forbidding a change to t-mobiles policy at exactly the same time as i switched phones i think it leaves only the phone as the possible cause.
i have tried t-mobiles technical helpdesk who are still to get back to me after 3 days... i am not holding my breath.
i think it may be something to do with it being an O2 phone/ROM and that it may be trying to connect using their settings when using email? does that sound reasonable?
i will flash a new ROM in the new year when i get new satnav software to replace the dodgy copy of TomTom on the device when it was delivered. hopefully that will solve it.
Thanks for your help.
