Hotmail not working anymore? - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

Hello,
Is it just me or has the built-in email app suddenly stopped working with hotmail accounts? Everything was working this afternoon, but a few hours ago, I didnt have access to my mails and cannot re-create my account. I installed the Outlook app in the meantime and it's working fine, but the built-in app gives me an error everytime I try to get new emails or re-add my account

try to clean data for the mail app .

Thank you!! That was the only thing I didn't try, and now it works!!

corrupt email account???

Hi forum,
I've got a problem with my WM6.1 Messagign account (Pop3) ... again
After a couple of months, it is not possible to send any mails from this account. Message: "mail could not be sent. check account and connection and try again."
If I set up a new account with exactly the same settings, everything works fine.
BUT if i delete the old account, all my send messages are gone.
What canI do to either transfer the send mails into the new account or repair the old one? (just menu-move... does only work withun one account. not to another)
thank you

Noob can't sync Gmail to Sense Mail App

Hi, all. Noob here. Title says it all. My google account has synched but for some reason, I can't add my gmail account to the Sense mail app. I added my hotmail account to it and it worked fine, but every time I try to add my gmail account, it gives me an authentication error and failure to login. The funny thing is that the gmail app works fine. But for some reason, the Sense mail app won't add my gmail account. Would be nice to access all my emails through one mail app.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thx.
Noob.
To get Gmail in the Sense Email app, you have to setup your @gmail.com account as an Exchange ActiveSync account. The server address is m.google.com . Everything will sync up just fine, including mail, contacts, and calendar. You can use push mail too if you'd like, or set an update schedule.
I setup my gmail account in Mail under the other option and it works perfect

It doesn't have to be a exchange account, I have it set up without that. You should go into your gmail settings on the computer and make sure the pop and/or IMAP is on.
Thanks for the suggestions. Tried all of it, but still not working. Weird. Not too bummed about it though...the gmail app is pretty good.
Are you 100% putting the right password in?
Do you use and special characters that you might not be typing correctly in the phone. If you do maybe change it to a easy password temporarily just to test.
It should be easy to setup, took me like 10 seconds

Yahoo won't work anymore

My Yahoo mail stoped working for no reason, it keeps saying that my account info form my smtp is incorrect?? WT? No it's not it is correct.
Are you using a pre-configured Yahoo account type on the phone, or using a manually-configured Yahoo POP access account (requires a paid account)? I'm having no problem with Yahoo on my phone (paid account, but I'm using the pre-configured account type on the phone and the paid access for Outlook on the PC).
If it doesn't come back in a day or three, delete the account and try re-creating it.

It's a manually configured POP 3 Yahoo account that was working fine, I did no updates or configuration changes; I noticed that it bombs out when I try to send an attachment, it keeps saying my smtp account informaiton is wrong.
I forgot to mention that this has happend 3 times before and each time I've deleted and recreated my Yahoo account but this time it has not worked. This is really starting to get on my nerves; why does Windows Phone do this? My account settings are correct, ive even double checked they are the same as my Outlook on my computer; what gives?

Okay I narrowed it down to that if I don't attach a picture to it it works fine; WT So now I can't send pictures via email because I gett that stupid error. Help.
Try using the automatic Yahoo account type (which will use IMAP, and possibly a different SMTP server). I don't know why attaching an image is messing up the server you're using, but there seems to be some kind of problem.
I am having the same issue and I am just trying to send a regular plain text email. Then I went to yahoo and for some reason I had to reinstate my account. When another friend of my reported the same problem. We figured it was a yahoo, issue.

mail client is going haywire

OK... for nearly a month I used the stock mail client for email and it was great! It has a couple perfect Widgets imho but as of the late it has been giving me consistent errors...
It keeps claiming my email credentials are incorrect when I know they are correct since I was able to login to the site based email with same exact credentials... Anyone else experiencing this all of a sudden?
Yea it was happening to me just a little while ago. I disabled the gmail app sync and notifications and so far so good. Maybe the gmail app and stock email app conflict when synchronizing?
Ah I may give that a try... seems to be an intermittent problem for me so I'm almost thinking its a problem on Yahoo's side and not the client itself...
If it is yahoo then I think the issue is on their part. My wife's atrix 4g is doing the same thing now. She thinks I'm some kind of tech genius. I couldn't get it to work and eventually the account was locked. No problem with access to the account in the browser.

maybe there is something larger going on here
recently after a wipe and fresh install
I've been able to re-set up email accounts for by myself and my wife except for 1 hotmail account,
any time I try to set it up, it says there's a server error
the other accounts, including another hotmail account are working just fine
and as others stated above, I'm able to log in from PC just fine
Is your error with Hotmail a server error like you said or a log in issue? If that is the case it may not be the same as our yahoo mail problem...

it's a server error, it has something to do with the total number of accounts,
combined total of personal and business emails that I and mainly my wife has is 6
5 accounts are working
If I remove one of the working accounts and try to add the last remaining account in it's place
it works
just all 6 will not work at the same time
when I was on stock .29 all 6 were functioning at the same time
it seems to be a problem with the mail client in .30

[Q] synchronising emails on default email client with pop3

Hi all
I was hoping you could help me with a problem i'm having. I use my HTC One S with my a pop 3 email account (Microsoft office 365)
However, when i delete an e-mail from my phone it does not delete the e-mail from the server. How can i get everything to sync up so that when I delete an email from my phone it gets deleted from the server?

I'm actually experiencing this problem as well using gmail. I recently flashed my radio and installed Tecardo's US script. Did you also do that?
I thought M365 supported IMAP also? Thats much more stable then pop3.
