Works fine for me too, it seems. Debranded K800i on 3 Sweden, who recommends only using their SMTP, but now after installing all three certificates (did all at once), it just works. I will just have to get flurrymail to stop polling making all messages unread.
Thanks!

Hi @redvers - what gprs provider are you using? have you attempted to create a new account with the Sonyericsson configurer? - Are the GPRS settings the same as your providers? - Also, not sure if it makes a difference but I checked all the "Authentification" options in Data communications"- it only had "PAP" checked before.

Using the T-Mobile internet settings, not tried creating a new one. Can't edit the authentication options as the t-mobile settings (which you need to use to ensure your data allowance is free under Web n Walk) are locked. However, without me changing anything it now works, so I suspect the "unable to contact server" was a genuine error message! |

Now I have Gmail going, is it possible to have more than one active account? I have my own domain related email account as well as gmail, and ideally I would want both to be checked every 5 minutes. However, from what I can figure out, you manually have to switch between accounts, and only the active account will poll. Is that correct? |

@redvers: Not sure. Why not try? Set both accounts to poll every 5 minutes, set gmail as active account, send mail to your other address and wait 5-10 minutes. If you do not receive it, try to find another solution. Personally I forward my other accounts/addresses to my gmail address and read everything there. The only exception would be my new address given to me by 3, @3mail.se, that I hardly use, but still keep since they send SMS notifications for free.

I have noticed a problem with gmail polling, not sure if it is me, phone or gmail that causes it. Grateful for any help or ideas.
I poll Gmail every hour, mail gets downloaded fine, but when I have read the mail, next poll it will disappear from inbox, not being marked for (local) deletion. I want messages to stay in inbox until I say otherwise. Any clues as to what is going on?

This is the way the gmail server works. Unfortunately it is not 100% compatible with the phone's way of dealing with deleted messages.
You could try to change the Download setting to "headers only", in which case the messages will still disappear, but only after you have manually downloaded and read them.
Another option is to change the size limit option to something very small, like 1-4 kb. Then most messages will remain in your inbox, some of them might be truncated (use more/download to fetch them completely). There is no 100% solution I'm afraid. :/ |

I tried using the email on my P990 at home, and couldn't send. I figured it was due to the SMTP servers not being allowed access through my home internet provider. Added a new group account where my home WiFi wasn't included, which forced the email client to grab emails through a GPRS/UMTS connection.
Worked great.
Sincerely,

Scratch the last comment, Orange K800i's come with a thawte cert already installed and the phone will let me in to gmail server using that one anyway. |
