02 UK Email with T68i

Posted by stuburgess
Does anyone know how, and even if you can set up an o2 email account (i.e. me@o2.co.uk) to work within the built in email client on the T68i?
I tried looking on the o2 website there is nothing about setting up t68s on it.

I also tried using the SE configurator to send me email details for "Genie" which was o2 until recently, still no joy it just says "server not found"

Any Ideas?

Yes i have had the same problem, but its with any pop3 email settings, i tried my pipex email settings, uni email settings. theydontwork onthe t68i but the same settings do work onoutlook express. L:etme ask everyone?.. .. has anyone on O2 got the email to work via WAP? Cos everyonei know has this problem. It seems it is the phone software thats buggy.

I have got virgin.net eamil set up on my phone.... but not over wap..... i was not aware it was possible.

On my phone i have added a data connection to the virgin.net isp and set that up as the email profile.

At last!

I just successfully checked my O2 email over GPRS using my T68i

Connect using - O2 WAP GPRS (courtesy of the O2 configurator)
Protocol - POP3
Inc. Server - 193.113.160.13
Incoming Port - 110
Mailbox - "something"@o2.co.uk
Password - "your password"
Outgoing server - 193.113.160.13
Outgoing port 25
email address - "something"@o2.co.uk


Hope that helps

Thanks, it seems to check email now, i've yet to try sending any email though!

Posted by stuburgess
After my last post i checked if it sent email, which it now does, it takes a few minutes for the email to get through but i'm putting that down to o2, they must be busy or something!

Thanks for your help guys, its now much better that i dont have to use the wap site!

I can't log on to my email on the normal wap or gprs, i get bad mailbox or password, i can log on on the o2 site. I'm cunfused.

Posted by largepig
Nor can i log on with outlook which is supposed to work with pop3.o2.co.uk and mail.o2.co.uk


ddddddaaaaaamn!!!

like the post above, make sure your username includes the "@o2.co.uk" part, if it doesnt add it, that was the only problem i had checking mail

Posted by largepig
Yeah, i did have that then i tried all sorts of things, set it back again and nothing then half an hour later it all started working.... weird.

Hi largepig, post your settings, include everything but your password, we'll sort it out, I have Outlook and my T68i logging on to o2 via GPRS and exchanging mail.

It's all working now, but thanks anyway!! I'm not sure what was wrong, it just started working!!!

when I called O2 to set up my GPRS etc they said that they did NOT support the sending of emails via your phone you could only recieve. I can however send using my PDA & Phone (GPRS).

In other words, they won't tell you how to do it, cuz when you think about it, it's a huge can of worms. That doesn't mean it can't be done of course.. as you know!

Hi,

I have recently brought a t68i and communicam. I have managed to set up all my mms settings and wap things but can't get the email settings to work for o2. Sometimes I get Mailbox or Password wrong or other times it can't find server.

I know it works because I managed to get a virgin account working using a isp number but when its an 0845 noumber it'll cost a bomb so I wanted to access my O2 mail using the free wap dial up or gprs i don't mind which

Thanks again

Chris

think when i set up my virgin account, it was easy, virgin even sent me an e-mail, on wot to use, and Orange even showed me where to input the details, but i did make a few miss-take (user error).

but 1 thing that i found out on pop3, if i add the 3 it didn't work.
eg
pop3.virgin.net - didn't work
pop.virgin.net - did work

not sure if this also work for O2, but u can try it.

Finally i got my email to work on O2. now i can use the free 91500 to send and recieve email from my o2.co.uk mail account. Thanks to G0TRT who put up the post of the settings! It was mentioned they were for GPRS but it works via GSM WAP too so thats ok! Now i can send those communicam pics back to myself. Surprisingly the camera is actually very good, resolution is very impressive!!! Just in case anyone is still wondering what those settings are for o2 UK email with t68i. . . i have copied and pasted what i used. . . .

Connect using - O2 WAP GPRS (courtesy of the O2 configurator)
Protocol - POP3
Inc. Server - 193.113.160.13
Incoming Port - 110
Mailbox - "something"@o2.co.uk
Password - "your password"
Outgoing server - 193.113.160.13
Outgoing port 25
email address - "something"@o2.co.uk

This has taken me 3 months to get these settings!!!!!!

can you download your mail from O2 to your Outlook account? Do you do this via the T68 or is there a direct dialup to O2 with a username and password for the dialup?

thanks!

Hey, i finally solved it!

try changing the connect type to analogue instead, ISDN didnt work for me ..

Posted by 2tangy
That's weird cos on my T68i I have it set to ISDN and I can access O2 pop3 mail and yahoo pop3 mail just fine.

Oh well, at least it's working for you now

Posted by tommy_boy
Please somebody help:
I've tried just about everything, but I still can't access the email via WAP.

I'm using O2 UK Wap which is free, and i've put all the settings in, but all it comes up with every time is, mailbox or password incorrect.

Ta.
