gmail configeration

has anybody successfully synced there fone to gmail???
cause i have run into a bit of a problem my fone checks gmail every 15 mins and i get my email and everthing but i cant send email. i use recent:username so that it doesnt deleat the messages on my fone. anyone?? know how to fix these?

I am having the same problem and I am looking for a fix right now. It's due to the port #"s that are required by gmail to send and recieve email through there servers.

I have it working...
what are your settings?
my outgoing mail server is 'smtp.gmail.com:465' then in the Options menu I have 'Outgoing mail requires authentication' selected, and 'use separate settings' is NOT selected.
Maybe try that...I know the Outgoing Mail requires Authentication needs to be selected in order for you to be able to send mail...

if I could suggest maybe searching the posts for a direct push email service, many of which are free, getting that setup, then simply forwarding all of your gmail to the direct push account. making sure it leaves copies in ur gmail inbox for checking/archiving later from ur pc.

it works fine for me on my phone,i can send and recieve flawlessly. my outgoing server is smtp.gmail.com:465 as well

ok thanks u guys it was easy i had the 'use separate settings' selected. but once i unselected it.. it worked.. so u guy know of any good free service for pushing gmail, that works good??

mail2web offers free push service, and you can forward your gmail from the account options to a mail2web account. I was doing that for a while and it worked extremely well! Website can be found at: http://live.mail2web.com

you know, its funny. i was just working on this today as well.
i have the settings that pocket outlook found for me:
incoming mail: pop.gmail.com:995
outgoing mail: smtp.gmail.com:465
domain is blank. i have the use seperate settings unticked etc..
but it keeps asking me for my username and password and domain
i am using the correct username and password as far as i can tell. connects okay on my pc with that login. but it keeps failing on my wizard. do i need to put something in the domain area?

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*

Fuze email send issue

Hey, I just got the fuze and setup my gmail. I can receive, but can't send. Whey it tried to send I get the message "The messag(s) could not be sent. Check that you have the network coverage and that yhour account information is correct. Then try resending".
I did verify my account info was correct and I double checked the gmail settings. Also I thought maybe the proxy was active so I did run the disable proxy.
Anyone else have this issue?

If you have AT&T set your SMTP to: CWMX.COM

This is a known, and now fixed Microsoft problem with WM 6.1 Here is the link to the download on the Microsoft site.

I got the same error trying to send an email to Gmail IMAP server over a 3G connection. Does the WinMo 6.1 problem/fix apply to Gmail IMAP the same as it does to POP3 accounts?

Sure does.
Brian

Thanks for the verification, Brian. I applied the fix, and Gmail IMAP is working as it should.

Confirmation - It Works
This resolved the GMail outbound email issue for me as well.
Thanks to all of you who help others around here!

Okay, so I'm having this problem as well. I installed the Microsoft update, but like ... it's still not working.
I recently switched from a Tytn II/Tilt and Touch Pro/Fuze. I had email working on my Tilt, but it won't let me send on the Fuze. I am 100% sure all the settings are correct, and like I said, the update is installed. Aside from the proxy server thing, I have no ideas of how to fix this. But I don't know how the proxy server thing works.

What provider do you have, what account are you trying to set up, what ROM are you on, etc, etc, etc.....
I hope you weren't expecting someone to answer your vague question...
Yes, you mentioned Tilt and Fuze which tells me that your on AT&T but you really haven't provided enough info to assist you.
For your proxy, go to Start\Settings\Connection\Connections\Manage Existing Connections\Proxy Settings and check "TAhis network connects to the internet" uncheck "this network uses a proxy" and clear out any proxy listed.
Also go to Advanced\Select Networks and set both to MediaNet.
Depending on WHAT e-mail your trying to set up, check your settings for the outgoing server.
For example default settings for Yahoo put in smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com but I have to remove .mobile to get it to send.

Fuze and gmail
I have pop enabled for gmail--do I need imap instead?
I can't seem to connect--it rejects my password.
Hotmail works.
Pop3 through Lunarpages server works fine.
I can access my gmail just fine on my desktop computer.
oopsss, it decided to start working..didn't do anything different, not even reboot. persistence pays..

Fuze--change default email account?
How do I change my default email account?
I have several apps that send email to the default email set in Windows, and they all end up in the Outlook E-mail account Outbox, which is the Exchange one, and I don't use it.
Can't delete or change it. AT&T support was clueless.

[Resolved] Block mail settings - if I lose my phone

I just wonder if there is a way of blocking/preventing other people with different sim-cards to access my mail that I configured on my phone?
Example:
I configure my mail on my phone with all settings like username and password. Then I accidently lose my mobile and someone finds it. But this guy who finds it want to use it for bad things. He can't get my PIN password so he puts his SIM-card into my mobile. Therefore he can access my mobile and go into my mail that's already been set up. So now he can read everything in my mail and even send mails from the phone.
How do I prevent this?

Change the password on your e-mail account if you know that your phone is lost. He cannot see it or change it from the device, so once you change it, he will not be able to access it anymore. Also, you can set a personal password lock, which is independent from the SIM card. Finally, there are a couple of apps that can do certain things if your device is lost/stolen. They are in the D&H section.

Thanks But I tried to whatch my received mails with my sisters SIM-card, and it worked :S so if I lose my phone... the person can read the mails that I've received... and that's not good. Do you have any solution?
Btw, I'll check the D&H section!

Mostly everything you can use will depend on whether the device is connected to the internet, which might not be the case depending on the knowledge of the thief. You could probably add an app for tracking in case the phone is lost or stolen though (if your device is GPS capable, that is).

One more thing..
When I want to receive my latest mails - like the one I've received within three days ago. I go to my inbox and select receive/send. But what it does is that it recieves every single mail I got in my "real" inbox. And that's not what I want. I want it to just dwnld the newest messages. Because if this works... I can manually delete my messages in my mobile Inbox, so it doesn't store the mails to long. Because if I lose my phone, the theif will only have accsess to around 5mails

I think that there is either a setting or an app to automatically purge the saved e-mail if they are in the device for +3 days or so. I will look into it.

Thanks, but do you know what's the problem is with that I get all my messages from my inbox when I press "receive/send" in my mobile inbox? Because I've set the setting to just get the mails from 3days..

just a thought, to prevent that you could just put a password on your phone? So the person who takes it cant access your phone let alone the mail etc.

Had already suggested that, but the OP seems to have different concerns.

Okay, but how do I enable such a password?

just wanted to see if someone know the answers

I am not sure whether I really understand you but as suggested previously why don’t you use “Auto lock” with a password.(settings--->Lock..)
You can set after how many minutes or hours the device will be locked. After that time run up you need to input your password in order to able to use or see anything on your device

Hmm, it's more like an app that does the following:
Locks the phone (require a password) when turning on the phone. In that way, it doesn't matter if you have an extra SIM-card, because you can't access the phone. And then it's just a hard-reset that will restore the phone, but then my problem is solved - all my private files etc is gone with the wind

exactly! Even better if you use Microsoft exchange server mail then you don’t need to wait until the guy make hard reset you just simply remotely wipe your device

Use the lock function so go to start/settings and look for lock. Choose either 4 digit or more complex and set lock time as you wish. - i dont really knwo what more you would want because even if u switched sim, you would still have to crack the lock code.

Haha, so it was that simple ^^
Sometimes easy settings seems to be complicated but thanks for your replies
But the question about my email still remain :/
When I press "send/receive" my phone downloads every single mail. But when I go to Inbox-Tools-Options-My Account-Edit Account Setup I've already set the "download message" to from the past 3 days. What's the problem?

No probs, easiest solutions are always the best ones
mm not sure why that is doin that, setting the period should only download the relevant days...... what email provider u using? pop3? gmail? all work fine with me and i use exchange too.
If you cant sus it out, i would delete your email account, soft resest and set it up again.

mm that is strange, with those setting you should not be getting older mail?
Might sound odd, but have you tried a different setting, so like 1 week, or 1 day mail, save it and soft reset?
If not i will have a dig around.

somehow it seems to work now :S so I just hope it remains like that

Email

When I setup my email with the email icon as well as with the gmail app, everything synced up nicely, but i have not been able to send or receive emails. Says "sending" and nothing happens and new emails do not come in. Also it seems to say unable to connect to server a lot in the email icon. Although i have almost a full wi-fi connection. Ideas? Thanks.
