Mobile phone help

[imback]

Hi guys I was wondering if someone here could help me. My girlfirend has a Motorolla V600 on the o2 network. She can get on the net fine on it but she wants to be able to send email not via their wap page but from the client on the phone.

She has rung o2 3 times and each time they have emailed her settings for WAP access.

Does anyone have an o2 phone with this set up they could give me the settings for? Or any advice on how to set it.

Thanks.

All you really need to do is set up the client on the phone and tell it to connect using the settings they have sent.

So you will need for her e-mail account she wants to connect to
Protocol IMAP or POP3
Incoming server name e.g. pop3.ntlworld.com
incoming port s/b 110
mailbox name on the server e.g. joe.bloggs55@ntlworld.com
password (case sensitive
Outgoing server - now you will probably need to call them for one of these, though it is probably mail.o2.com or similar.
ougoig port s/b 25
Email address as you would like it show in the reply to box

Then you put them in and off you go.
I would recommend you get GPRS access enabled on the phone if it has it. It makes use of an email client so much better.

To add to SMH's post....


She's phoned O2 & not got much help? No surprise there. Their CS sucks.

Does she have all the proper connection settings on her phone?

This page will send various connection settings (for GSM WAP, GPRS WAP, & GPRS MMS etc) in an auto-setup SMS: http://www.o2.co.uk/productsservices...0,,184,00.html

Then, as SMH said, she will need to set up the phone's email client with the correct connection type, & the inbox & outbox details etc.

Also, email may not work through a normal GSM WAP or GPRS WAP connection - the client may need a direct GPRS net connection, rather than one which goes via a WAP gateway. (the O2 settings do provide a normal direct connection - it's called "O2 Mobileweb" on my P900 - as well as GSM & GPRS WAP gateway connections).
