Hopefully someone can shed some light on this issue. I set up my e-mail via the e-mail set up. It works fine for incoming e-mails but I can not send or reply to any e-mails. I get an error. I'm assuming the issue is with the smtp set up for the outgoing mail. I set this up the same way as it's on my computer. I read on another thread about port numbers, this is the only thing I can see that can be wrong but I can't find anywhere to change the port number on the setup. I'm using Optonline.net on a Samsung Saga.
Any help would be greatly appreciated ....
Please share your answer in case it comes up with someone else.
Knowledge is power!
Sure...
You need to change the outgoing SMTP mail set up. OOL will not let you send mail from a server which is not theirs.
First you need to have a VRZ WL online account "my account". Once you have that established go back into your e-mail set up and set the following:
Incoming Mail Server = mail-hub.optonline.net
Account Type= pop3
User Name = "Your Email Address"
Password = ????
Outgoing (SMTP) Mail Server = smtp.vzwmail.net
Check - Outgoing mail requires Auth
Uncheck - Use the same user name and password for sending e-mail
User Name = "Your Phone Number"@vzwmail.net (you can also use your "my account" user name)
Password = "Your My Account" password"
Obviously everything in quotes needs to be changed to your information.
That should do it.
