Setting Up POP Email For Earthlink On My ERIS

[srstark6111]

I have been unable to set up POP email for Earthlink on my new HTC ERIS. Has anyone successfully done this?  Maybe I don't have the correct port number?

Appreciate any help.  Thx

Thanks very much for taking the time to post this solution. it worked great.

The tricky part was the SMTP server address and port number, which I eventually got from Earthlink.
