Sending Email Error message. Please help!!
 

Can anyone help? I don't know WTH is going on and i've been trying for 2 hours. i tried sending myself an email and it says...the messages could not be sent. Check that you have network coverage and that your account information is correct. Then try sending again.

I have coverage and its set to my email account at yahoo.com

I also get ...Cannot connect with current connection settings. To change your connection settings, tap Settings.

If you use the default email setup process on the TP2, it will automatically find the settings for Yahoo mail, but they may only work for a short period of time (see my post here) or may not work at all. For some, it may actually continue working, but for both my wife and I, it only worked for a couple weeks before we started getting connection errors.

If you have Yahoo! Mail Plus, you can configure POP access to your account, but you will need to trick your TP2 into bypassing the automatic "search for settings" feature. To accomplish this, simply start the email setup process, but enter a bogus email address at the start (e.g. you can use something like emailid@yahoob.com). This will allow you to enter the manual config screens where you can specify POP access and use the information here).

Hope this helps. If you don't pay for Yahoo! Mail Plus, I'm not sure what your options are (sorry).

Based on my experience, you will need to purchase Yahoo! Plus to access your inbox via PoP3 or IMAP: http://overview.mail.yahoo.com/enhancements/mailplus.

There are other options.

You can download the Yahoo! Windows Mobile application: http://mobile.yahoo.com/yahoo/browser

Or

You can simply access Yahoo! through the browser: http://m.yahoo.com

Hope this helps.

I had to resetup my mail. Delete the old one and make a new one. I had to mess with the options inside it. Its working now.

I don't use the default setup for Yahoo mail, because it sets it up as IMAP. IMAP has 2 big drawbacks for me on the phone.

First, emails I send from the phone disappear. They go through to the recipient, but I lose my copy, regardless of any settings.

Second, emails I delete are deleted from the server, regardless of any settings.

To set it up as POP3, simply put in a false name for your email, like spell Yahoo.com as Yahooooo.com. Then you can manually set it up as POP3, using "pop.mail.yahoo.com" as your incoming server, and "smtp.mail.yahoo.com" as your outgoing server. Set all the options as you like them, and then remember to correct the spelling on your email address back to Yahoo.com

SAme issue with Optonline

Re: Sending Email Error message. Please help!!
 

I still have nothing but trouble with yahoo mail. doesnt matter if its 6.1, 6.5, or 6.5.x. I know switch to gmail right. Anyways as mentioned before the imap connection that it automatically setup quits working after while. However the same seems to happen setting up as pop mail. I do have yahoo plus. It work ok but after a while I get the same error messages again. Also it seems when i set up pop, everyonce in a while I wake up in the morning and my phone is dead because yahoo tries to pull down my entire inbox (all 5000 messages). The end result a dead phone with a mail box that is so big i cant delete the messages. Really geting fed up with yahoo.
