Right, great information up there about the o2 mail settings but erm.. they dont seem to work for me. I have placed it all into my phone in the appropiate settings but all i get is "Server not found"

Phone model is a Ericsson T65
Network im on is o2
Email Provider o2
connection type GPRS

Your connection type maybe GPRS but undoubtably you are using a data account for GPRS WAP rather than GPRS internet as this is the standard error you get when you are using the wrong data account.

Make sure you setup the correct APN for GPRS internet and also make sure that GPRS internet has been activated by O2 for you

Make sure you've sent, recieved and opened an email on the o2 wap site.

ok, im a bit of a rookie at this, whats APN ? and i need to contact my wap provider to gain gprs internet not gprs wap ? although i do have another connection type but that doesnt work either and it isnt gprs ( not sure what it is )

ill try sending and receiving / opening email on o2 as well... thanks

ok i found me APN its payandgo.o2.co.uk
and theres a pile of other settings, but if i goto send new email it asks me to put in a gateway ? ......

Possibly 193.113.200.195 can't you just switch your email to connect using gsm to test? It's in options, edit account, connect using.

Get the same error, GPRS or GSM ... "Server not found" ... thats for the o2 email settings ...

Posted by BOSSHOGG
I got that as well on 2 did phones, all i can say is keep trying to connect a few times a day. After about 2 days mines started to work for some reason.

Here's some instructions I made for a friend having similar problems, maybe this will help:

E-mail Settings for T610 on O2 using WAP

1. Send the 'Basic WAP' settings to your phone from http://ota.o2.co.uk/O2UK/index.jsp
2. Connectivity > Data comm. > Data accounts > O2 WAP > Edit > DNS address
Enter 193.113.200.200
3. [5472] Messaging > E-mail > Options > Edit account > New account
Account name: [whatever you like]
Connect using: O2 WAP

Yay!! it works, connected via o2 wap gprs using the setting as above BUT because im on a T65 it didnt have a dns option so i had to place the ip into Settings > Data Accs > o2 WAP GPRS > Edit > Finding Server > and i put the IP 193.113.200.200 into here and it works

Thanks all for your help much appreciated.
