email Setup issues

[rollnstns]

I can't seem to get email to work. Tried my gmail account and my hotmail account using izymail. It keeps saying something about "cannot connect with SSL. Try without?" and then it says it could not find server. Any help? Thanks!

email setup POP accounts

I am in same situation as poster in that email incoming works but
sending does not. According to some stuff I have been reading if
your working through a POP account there are some issues because
of anti-spam software which needs some sort of work around.

Most of the work-arounds I read about did not seem very elegant
and so right now (as a iPhone nooby) I am just happy to be
receiving e-mail.

If nothing posts up on this forum I expect i will eventually call
earthlink tech and see what they suggest.

Any help appreciated.

Go to gmail on your computer.
Click the settings link in the upper right corner
Click the pop and forwarding tab
Enable POP3 'Enable POP only for mail that arrives from now on'
Click save.
Now try it from your iPhone.

If you're trying to send email through an Earthlink account, make sure that you have your username/password entered in the outgoing server screen on the iPhone.

Or..if you're using Edge (not wifi) you can also use cwmx.com (with no username/password) as your outgoing mail server.

Earthlink gets funny about people not on the earthlink network, using their mail servers.

Hope that helped some...

Was having the same problem. Tried to put my user name and password in for the outgoing mail server. Didn't work. But cwmx.com worked fine. Only problem I have .... guess I need to change back to mail.earthlink.net when I'm in a WiFi area (my house).

I was having the same problem, and that worked.

Thanks!
