you generally cannot access email using a connection limited to wap access, except through some wap portal for your specific email service

generally, you need at least full internet dial-up, gprs, 3g, wifi etc

That's an IMAP feature, IIRC.

Another way you can check your gmail is if you forward it to any of the free push email providers (like mail2web.com) and then set it up on your M600/P990.




but would it only show the new emails i havent read. cuz of the phone now it shows the emails i havent read on the phone but i have actually read those on the computer already.

Hi guys,
I used to have a Gmail account, but since I updated a firmware, I can't create new Email account.
When I click "Email Account" tab, it says "Not found"...
So I can't create new account anymore.
Any solutions??

here is how to set it up on M600/W950/P990

ok, first ensure that your gmail account has pop access enabled. just go into settings of your gmail account

on the m600:

go into messaging
click more, settings, email accounts
cilck more, new account and give the account a name, enter your name, your gmail address (in full e.g. xxx@gmail.com) and choose pop3 for connection type

click the inbox tab
set incoming server address as pop.gmail.com
enter your username (again like xxx@gmail.com)
enter your password
specify the download settings you want (headers only or emails smaller than n)

click more, then advanced
on the incoming tab specify secure connection as SSL
on the outgoing tab specify secure connection as SSL
click save

click the outbox tab
specify outgoing server address as smtp.gmail.com
tick "use SMTP authentication"
tick "use inbox login details"

now send and receive emails through gmail successfully using the phone email client!


i have a question regarind these setting i was tryin to configure gmail on my p990i using these instructions but i cant find the advance tab anywhere when i m entering my email details

can someone help me on this

You can use "recent:" in front of your login.
Example: login = "recent:whatever@gmail.com"

if you are sure all the gmail email account setup details are correct then once again I can only suggest that it is a wap/GPRS connection that you are using rather than a full internet/GPRS data account

check the apn of the data account you connect with and most probably it will include the word wap indicating that this account is not suitable for gmail
