So, I've had no problem with GMail on my Dash pretty much from the day I set it up. Pretty much the only thing I've tweaked is the setting for how often it checks my mail. But for some reason, about two weeks ago, I stopped being able to send mail. I can still receive messages, but I get a rather unhappy screen telling me that it can't find the GMail SMTP server, and asks me to make sure I have network coverage. I've got at least five bars, and I get the exact same result when I try to send messages via WiFi.
Before you ask, yes, I've got SSL turned on, and I also tried appending the traditional SMTP address (smtp.gmail.com) with Port numbers (smtp.gmail.com:587 and smtp.gmail.com:465), neither one of them made a difference. And I'm sure that smtp.gmail.com is the correct address to use, because I have the same address in my laptop settings and it has no problem with this.
Any idea what the cause is, or has anyone else experienced this problem?
I have the same problem. It worked fine for some weeks, but then suddenly stopped working.
Delete the gmail account. Add your gmail account(connected to internet) and allow the wizzard to get the email account setting automatically. By doing it it gets necessary settings.
*May be* this will fix the issue.
Yup, i had the same thing happen, and deleting the account and re-configuring (I did it manually) fixed it.

Thanks a lot! That solved my problem!
Hey I am having this identical problem on my Hermes, and have already deleted and re-added the account once. It fixed it for a while, but then it happened again. Unable to send due to unable to contact SMTP, check connections etc..
Any further thoughts? I don't want to have to continuously delete and re-add the account..
I'm also experiencing the exact same problem. Has anyone found a solution?
I have this problem too, the microsoft fix won't install on my PDACorner 6.1 rom, does 6.5 fix it :~
Hi everyone,
I have searched exhaustively on this forum and via google but cannot find a solution anywhere.
Certain emails that I send via Pocket Outlook are only partially being sent. (longer emails)
Its not an SMTP issue because I have tried 3 different SMTP servers and the same thing is happening.
What is very strange is that the entire messages shows up in the sent folder but when someone else receives it only a paragraph shows up. (I have also sent them to one of my emails to test and they are partially showing up). But what is even odder is that its not with all messages, some are being received fine.
I thought that it could be some kind of font issue but that didn't work.
If someone has any ideas I would be grateful as I use the phone for business and my customers are not receiving full emails so its a big problem for me. Also just to add I am pretty sure this just started happening recently and I haven't changed any settings either.
Thanks again for your replies.
since the 3.2.1 update ive noticed my gmail is not syncing like it used to, if i delete any emails, after refreshing they are now back in my inbox and unread, if i try and sed an email it just sits in the outbox saying sending for dayyyys, it never ever sends any of my emails anymore. wtf? anybody else having these or similar problems? any fixes anybody knows of?
I am having problems with the email set up. It sets up OK but does not download emails from the inbox. It downloads sometimes on an irregular basis. There seems to be no problem in sending emails.The email is a pop3 account. Is anyone else having problems??
Hi!
I'm having a very irritating problem and was hoping someone could help.
I am running stock ICS on my skyrocket, and I have my gmail account set up as exchange in the stock mail app. I can generally send/receive just fine, however I have one friend who 50% of the time seems to receive my email responses to her emails as blank. When I look at them in my sent folder of gmail on my computer, they show up as blank there as well, making this massively irritating since I then have to re-type the entire message.
Any idea what's causing this? I actually was having the same problem emailing her on my Nexus 7 as well from the stock email set up in the same fashion as my phone. And she does not have this problem with anyone else.
Thanks!
