Email Troubles
 

Hello all! I had to know that using a new device wouldn't be all sunshine.

I have a question regard the email client on my Sprint 700wx. I have a yahoo account so all the settings are preprogramed into the device, however when attempting to connect and retrieve email the screen with my user-name, password, etc. appears and despite being correct it won't connect to download my emails. Other times it works without problems.

Any suggestions? Thanks!

Bill

I know yahoo started charging for the ability to check mail via pop or imap, and as a side note so did hotmail. That's why I stopped using those two addresses, I like to check all my mail in Outlook or on my phone through Pocket Outlook.

Yes, that is a good point. I looked into Yahoo's varying email options and saw that it is supported when you pay. However, after the past few days my email has been delivered without a problem. Sometimes it wants me to reenter my information despite having it not work, other times it will retrieve my email many times without a problem. Interesting...any further suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Bill

700wx still requesting: Username, Password, and Domain with the option to "Save Password." It doesn't matter that the information is already in the necessary boxes or that I reenter the information. The device still doesn't want to connect to retrieve my email.

Then the following message appears: "Unable to connect to the incoming mail server. Verify that your login information is correct, than try again to send and receive mail."

Please help. Thanks!
