I'm on 600k broadband, it's allways on and generally hassle free, although on the odd occasion that i'm home during the week it does tend to slow down.... |

I use a Orange eMail account and have no problems sending and receiving emails using GPRS. Even sent pictures taken with the P800 as attachments in emails without any problems.....works like a dream.
Been playing around with a std dial up connection to send and receive but I'm having problems, still trying to figure this out.
Have you guys checked out your GPRS email set up?

@Bogman
is that an ntl e-mail you are sending.
I mean if you sent me an e-mail and I clicked reply would it reply to an ntl e-mail address or an Orange e-mail address
thanks

evenin all..
I use NTL broadband 600kbs - had 1 meg but what's the pount now NTL have imposed a dload limit.. if u don't know what i'm talking about check this link:
http://www.guru4u.co.uk/forums/viewthread.php?tid=59
anyway since i have used ntl email on my T68i and now my P800 i've always had problems sending emails out!  I've solved this by sending out emails on my P800 using one of my pther email addy's but that aint the real solution. I know of several others with the same problem.
Has anyone actually spoke to NTL regarding this? although to do so would probably be a waste of time coz if i don't get bored queuing on the phone they wont know what ur talking about when u finally do get through!

If I sent a email from my Orange mail account to your NTL account and you replyed to that email you would send it back to my Orange account.
It dosen't matter who the email service provider is as long as you have the correct email address for the person.

This is from boltblue support
Many thanks for your email. We do not officially provide support for
the configuration of GPRS enable phone or any other type of mobile
phones.
Our smtp server does not accept third party IP addresses, which a
mobile network operator would provide using a GPRS connection.
You would need to be dialled in through the boltblue number in order to
send emails.
Alternatively, if your mobile network operator have a mail transfer
agent address that would allow you to send mails, input this address as
your smtp server.
Regards,
Vito

I've always assumed that most ISP's only allow you to send e-mail using their dial-up (i.e using one of their own ip addresses).
If anyone knows any different, please let me know.
If I dial my ISP's usual number from my mobile, surely I'll have to pay 40p per minute or something ?
Anyone else got any other ideas ? I'd be keen to save on my gprs bill like everyone else and would prefer to use my NTL dial-up ...

I'm on Orange and everything was set up for GRPS when started using the phone.
I think they (Orange) send all the info to the simm via an SMS
but ntl are (you can only send to other ntl e-mail)
Go, control panel, connection, messaging accounts
New
Acc name- ntlworld
Your name- your name
e-mail address- your ntlworld e-mail address
Connection type- Pop3
Internet account- o2 GPRS ??
inbox
user name- your ntlworld e-mail user name (not log in username)
password- your ntlworld e-mail password (not log in password)
incoming server address
pop.ntlworld.com (nb NOT pop3, just pop VIMP)
outbox
smtp.ntlworld.com
click done
hope this works for you, i have just sent an e-mail and it works for me

sorry, did i forget to mention i'm on a t68i at the moment, not got my p800 yet! ermm, i've got the settings that i use with outlook for example, its just that even the pop3 didn't work on that, i got a pop3 server ip from somewhere on this site, but want an ip for smtp, and smtp.ntlworld.com doesn't even come up, ie the server isn't found. |

NTL Pop3 server IP is 62.253.162.50
NTL SMTP server IP is 62.253.162.40
Hope this helps, but it seems we're all in the same boat that we can only send to other NTLworld accounts
