I set up my hotmail account on my D2G using port 995 for incoming email and port 25 for outgoing emails. I can receive emails but I can't send them out.
Somebody knows how to correctly set up a hotmail account on a D2G?
Help will be very appreciated.
Thank you.
Most likely your ISP blocks TCP port 25 for security reasons. Replace it with 587 and make sure TLS/SSL is enabled for the SMTP server.
You can follow this: ***https***://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/48622/~/droid-x---hotmail***
It´s work for me ... remove the ***
Great! It was that i had to uncheck the unsecure server and click on verify certificate but still using port 25 since i am using 3G and not wifi, in which case it has to be 587.
Thank you.

I am trying to setup Push Email for my Hotmail account using Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync. I go through all the steps and it sets it up, but after it goes to the mail list, it keeps doing a continuous loop of syncing and refreshing. Anyone else have this problem or am I doing something wrong?
You don't use exchange for hotmail use the option other and that will work.

Will Push Email work with this?
You can't setup Hotmail as an Exchange account, there's no way I'm aware of anyway. I've never had Hotmail setup on a device where Push was available as an option, however you can set it to refresh as often as every 5 minutes
saw this somewhere and it worked for me
Protocol - pop
put email address in and user name put email address in again
put in password
pop server - pop3.live.com
security type - SSL port 995
outgoing
tick log in required
put email address in as username
put in password
smtp server - smtp.live.com
security type - TLS
server port - 587

This makes sense
Hotmail now has IMAP which is better for cell phones than POP. It will push and sync.
Use the m.hotmail.com serever. Here it is for the iPhone:

Okay so I got Push Hotmail to finally work on the Inspire.
What I found out was that default mail app on the Inspire does not support Push Hotmail for some reason.
What I ended up doing was downloading the default Google email.apk file and installed it on my Inspire and followed the instructions to setup Push Hotmail that can my found on Google.
How do I set up the email for Windows Live hotmail? I have a college email with it, and I can't figure out the pop3/smtp servers. Is it easier to use an app instead? Anyone tried one?
I tried pop3.live.com and smtp.live.com and they don't work.

Under accounts/sync, add a server you mean? Only options are corporate, facebook and google. I tried just adding under corporate anyway, and it can't connect to server.
If it's windows mail then it might be outlook. There's an option in your email where it shows you the settings you have to enter on your phone.

Use the email app not the gmail app, and just sign in
or you can use k-9 email app
Try this. i use this for my windows live email that my school has provided.
ie. choose only one from pop and imap. smtp you need that for outgoing emails.
your username could be your whole email address.
POP setting
Server name: pod51000.outlook.com
Port: 995
Encryption method: SSL
IMAP setting
Server name: pod51000.outlook.com
Port: 993
Encryption method: SSL
SMTP setting
Server name: pod51000.outlook.com
Port: 587
Encryption method: TLS
Fixed it, set it up as an exchange account and m.hotmail.com. I just had to change my username to my entire email address. It's working now. Thanks. Now if I could just figure out why my gps my location stopped working. That's another thread.

My mom and dad have yahoo mail accounts, which I set up in the default mail app for them, and now they have yahoo's app, and let me tell you, most all of the questions they ask me needing help revolve around yahoo not working right or something.
I can't say definitively, but yahoo seems to have a lot of problems... On THEIR end.
I dropped yahoo like a bad habit a long time ago.
I recommend setting up email forwarding form your Yahoo account to your Gmail account. Problem solved!
When you set it up manually do you use these settings:
Incoming Server Settings
Username: <yourusername>@yahoo.com
Password: Your Password
IMAP Server: imap.mail.yahoo.com
Port: 993
Security Type: SSL (accept all certificates)
IMAP path prefix: blank
Outgoing Server Settings
SMTP Server: smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com
Port: 587
Security Type: None
Require Sign In: Checked
Username: <yourusername>@yahoo.com
Password: Your password

I might want to do this for my mom. That's done through the account to be forwarded (yahoo), the destination (gmail), or both?
I can find out on my own, but if you drop back in and want to give me an easy answer that's ok, too.

You have to set it up in yahoo, I don't remember if you set anything up in gmail, but you do have to click a link to confirm. If yahoo doesn't show the forwarding option, change the zone to yahoo asia. That's how mine is set so I can enable pop3.

again, we need more info or you should ask you admin / provider. you need to know if you are using ssl or not, you need to know your pop3/imap/smtp server address.
if you are able to access internet on your phone, then this is not related to T-mobile (if you don't have emails from them) or any network provider...
This are the settings used for configuring YAHOO mail manually....maybe these will help you see where you are going wrong:
For Yahoo.com
Incoming mail server (POP3): plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com
Outgoing mail server (SMTP): plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com
For Yahoo.co.uk
Incoming Mail (POP3) Server: pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk (Use SSL, port: 995)
Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk (Use SSL, port: 465, use authentication)

Guys I've trying to get my phone to send emails since I've had it. I can receive emails but can't send any!! I've tried looking on web for answers even gone to internet provider for help,I've searched forums but still can't get my one s to work. I'm using what came with phone any help would be great
What app are you using?
HTC One™ S
What type of e-mail? POP3, Exchange, etc? From an ISP or work? I'm assuming it's something other than gmail so more info is better...

Did you use the auto settings or did you manually configure the incoming, outgoing, and security settings?

Cox POP has different settings for incoming and outgoing. Search your provider's site for the proper settings.

been on virgins site used there settings still wont send emails.
just tried again to set up emails and it says on phone can not connect to server/server not responding, if i finish the set up i can receive emails but still cant send any
After you find the server name you need to find what port they want you to connect to, whether they want/require SSL, and whether you need to enter your user name and password to send mail. To limit SPAM i know a lot of providers require a second login to verify the sender. I tried to look up the settings for you but Virgin operates in many countries with many products. Are you on Virgin Mobile in the US? And the e-mail account is with them (doesn't matter who your cellular provider is.)

Do you try to send those emails from a hotmail account?
Sent from my HTC One S using xda app-developers app
I'm on o2 in the UK, I'm using ntlworld.com for emails
the settings should be:
Sending mail (SMTP)
SMTP server name: smtp.ntlworld.com or smtp.virginmedia.com (I see both listed in different places)
SMTP SSL: Enabled
SMTP port: 465
SMTP authentication: Enabled (or 'Password' on Macs)
SMTP username: Full e-mail address, e.g., [email protected]
OR
you can use O2's email smtp server to relay your outgoing messages with these settings:
Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)
Host Name: smtp.o2.co.uk
User Name: [email protected]
Password: youro2password
Your Advanced settings should look like this...
Outgoing Settings
Use SSL: Off
Authentication: Password
Server Port: 25

cheers for the help but it still wont let me send any emails, first it said account details are wrong then it said server cant find account! would it make any difference that i used to have a iphone before? on this email account?
I don't think it would matter what device you used previously (even if it was an iphone - everyone makes mistakes .)
