[Q] Verizon S6 - Comcast email trouble - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Received my S6 last night and I still cannot get my comcast email to work. My S5 was setup for IMAP and worked perfectly. I have the two devices side by side and settings are identical yet now since I activated the S6, neither of them work. Very strange. I've tried POP3 also and can't get it to work. I've tried different email apps (stock and Aqua mail). I have gmail, my work exchange email and yahoo biz email setup perfect. Any ideas?
EDIT:::::::::::
MODS PLEASE DELETE....
I'm a complete moron. I had the wrong password somehow. Didn't realize it until I tried logging in manually (instead of using saved password) to my comcast webmail. WOW....If anyone needs me I can be found with my head in the nearest hole...

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.

Hope this helps,

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.

Active sync problems / questions

Hello All,
My company just recently went through a server upgrade and my phone was working perfectly prior to the upgrade. i had full exchange access such as all email boxes, calendar and contacts. prior to the upgrade we had the mail.companyname.com server address.
now the server address is http://owa.companyname.com/Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync
when i enter this into the device center it keeps kicking the address out and puts in the following. owa.companyname.com
they currently have my phone set up like a regular email account such as hotmail. i only have my inbox working and it doesnt store my sent items. Additionally my calendar or contacts doenst flow to my phone and i cant sync the phone with device center either.
i have the sprint htc snap but i dont think that makes a difference since it was working fine before the server upgrade.
any ideas.
Thanks
Try to contact tecnical support of the company,s surver maintanance

Emails disappeared from all accounts

Hi all
This was a new one for me and i hope its a one off.
I was reading my emails using the undread option across mutiple accounts and once i had read them all and switched back to all mails view all of my mails had gone from the device.
I then exited mail and went back into it and it showed the setup account choices screen.
I checked settings and accounts and they were all still there with a green sync icon but checking the mail app they were not showing as registered.
The only fix i could find was a factory reset.
Has anyone else experienced this and is there a better fix? I have searched the forums and found nothing so far.

This also has happened to me multiple times. I had 2 accounts: exchange for work and pop/smtp for home email. Mail client crashed (do not remember exactly what i was doing) and upon re starting it i was presented with the screen to set up mail accounts.
Checking the Account & Sync in Settings listed both accounts, but the mail client was unaware of them.
First time this happened I simply re-entered account details in the mail client and everything worked.
Second time it happened I could enter the exchange account details but client reported that it could not connect.
This required a factory reset to fix. Called north american support line, they had no record of this problem on file & suggested I use k9 client due to history of mail client issues on other devices. I could not get k9 to work on exchange.
When it happened the third time, I was able to reenter the accounts into the email client again and things worked.
I am now evaluating touchdown mail client for exchange. I use the gmail client for some other accounts and it works fine.

[Q] Unable to send email from exchange since ICS leak

I noticed since I installed the ICS leak about 2-3days ago, Im able to receive my email from exchange just fine, but cannot send email, they just get stuck in the Outbox. I just noticed this today after seeing a ton sitting there. I can continue to receive emails no problem.
This is an exchange setup, so obviously there is no incorrect outbound mail server setting like SMTP or IMAP.
So on a hunch I decided to add this exchange account to my iPad, and send a test mail, and it worked! So for some reason the phone refuses to send out any email from my exchange account but has no problem receiving mail into it.
I also have a GMAIL account which is setup using the native Gmail app and that works flawless, no issues there, its just the native email account with exchange now that seems to have an issue.
Anyone else having this issue? Ive tried to delete the account, re-add it, no change. Then went to Application and cleared all data/cache, no change.
Dixit
never heard of this issue, but what about k9 as an alternative
K9 doesnt support Exchange Activesync yet, it only supports Exchange Webdav (which is older Exchange server implementations).

I know its definitely the native email app that has issues with sending the mail through Exchange ActiveSync. I just downloaded Enhanced Email from the market and put my same credentials in for my corporate email and was able to send out mail with no issues. Wondering if anyone else uses the native ICS email app with Exchange Activesync has issues.
I had that problem with the native email app yesterday with a recovery based ICS install.
After messing around with it for a while, I did find that the way the e-mail app is working is really odd/seems to require some of the bloatware I typically freeze. I went ahead and did another factory reset of settings in CWM and wiped cache and such a few times, and it did start working.
After the reset and not touching anything, I got the exchange setup to work with both the exchange server at work, and Hotmail's version of it.
I am getting same issue. I tried delete and adding account again. It works for few hours and after that it starts accumulating emails in outbox.
I have not factory reset again yet, as I would need to install all apps again
I ended up reverting back to GB. I have to be able to reply to work email. There is something wrong at the framework or core in this leak. Cause even other email apps like Enhanced Email had the same issue. Worked fine for a few hours then stopped.

[Q] Tasker and Email Sync problem

Hi all,
Not 100% sure if this is the right place to post this (if not could someone please move?), but I have a problem I could do with some help with!
I currently have gmail, hotmail (for personal emails) and the normal android email (for work emails) apps on my Galaxy S3. These are set to receive emails all day long, however as most of the time at work I am in front of a PC, I would like to stop syncing from these apps at those times.
I have set up tasker to recognise when I am in the vicinity of my work wireless router, and gone to the Net section and disabled auto-sync when the tasker profile is activated.
This seems to work perfectly with gmail and hotmail, however my work exchange emails still come through on my phone. I recall reading that this might be because there are separate setting for sync actually in the email app?
Is there any way anyone can think of to get this to work?
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: It does appear I just received a notification for a hotmail email too? But all others haven't come through to my phone today, so that may just be a blip?
Nobody have any ideas? I'd be happy to explore other ways of achieving the same...
