Discussion: email issues

email issues I have set up the 8525 to check various e-mail accounts via 'The Internet' at my pop & smtp servers. How can I instruct the 8525 to leave the e-mail ON the server so I can retrieve it on my laptop at home later?

2. RE: email issues

"After further experimentation, I can see that for some reason, when an e-mail comes to my 8525, it only remains in the INBOX for a few minutes, then disappears on its own, and I cannot find it on the server when I check. What is going on here? I can't find any kind of setting to adjust what the 8525 does with my emails."

Iam having the same situation...

4. RE: email issues Freiburger, hello. I am having the same issues with my 8525 and aol, actually, in my pop 3 settings too. I can get the mail but can't send it. Any help would be apperciated! I can't send mail in my POP or IMAP. I am also looking for that windows mobile 6.0 upgrade that I have been hearing about.

6. RE: email issues With regards to the AOL issues and leaving a copy od the message on the server.

AOL: Basically, aol uses the IMAP protocol so when you configure your account in the device, select IMAP for account type.

SENDING OUTGOING MAIL: For those of you who are not able to send outgoing mail, try changing your outgoing mail server in the e-mail account settings. I'm guessing most of you are using the "smtp.aol.com" server. Try using ATT's own "cwmx.com" outgoing server. Sometimes, since you are using and ATT data plan, the ATT connection can't authenticate properly on AOL's outgoing server. If you are already using cwmx.com, then try using smtp.aol.com.

DISSAPPEARING E-MAILS: If you are running WM5 on your device, the device does not delete the copy of the message off the server, end of story. The only way that it does is if you delete it from your inbox yourself and and then empty the deleted items folder.Some versions of WM6 have an option to leave a copy of the message on the server; however, there is no official WM6 update for the 8525 yet. FOR. those of you that are recieving e-mails in your inbox and then they are dissappearing minutes later there are 2 possibilities. First, mot likely you are using an e-mail client on your PC to check that same e-mail, like Outlook, outlook express, or thunderbird. You must configure your account on YOUR PC's e-mail client to leave a copy of the message on the server otherwise it will delete it which means when your device connects it will not see those e-mails.. To get you started, for outlook go to Tools > e-mail accounts > view or change > select account > change>advanced tab. Also, sometimes even though you have checked all of the above and you are still experiencing the same issue where the e-mails dissappear from you inbox. One common example is with G-mail. All you do is set you phone to get message headers only instead of full copy in settings.
