im trying to send a email with a picture attachment. But how do i send a email from my K700 to a email account such as aol. When i setup a account on the phone and send the email it then tries to find a server. How do send a email so i can open it from the internet. |

Ok. You have gprs activated in your phone? If yes, go to wap.mymail.ro and sign up for free pop3 mail. Also from, your pc, visit www .bluebottle.com for free email. You would then need to enter their settings in your phone.

Yes you can send attachments with it. I'll give you the settings. But of late, mymail.ro is giving some problems while sending mail. Dunno why. Tried bluebottle? Its better imo.

Do you have an email account for your pc?, if so just type in your username, password, pop3 and smtp settings under "email settings" in your phone |

You'd have to fill up the blank space for incoming and outgoing servers. For mymail the incoming and outgoing servers are the same: mail.mymail.ro the mailBOX is your ID without the @ part for example, if your full email is www@mymail.ro your mailbox is www. And i also think you need to have a full internet account. I don't think you would be able to use this service on a wap only connection.

I am with blueyonder so settings would be
incoming server : pop3.blueyonder.co.uk
maibox : the username you use to connect to the web(pc)
password : the password you use to connect to the web(pc)
outgoing server : smtp.blueyonder.co.uk
email address : your email address, eg.. me@blueyonder.co.uk
every operator uses different settings

your all confusing me now, lets just say i connect to the web on my pc using aol, so do i enter incoming server : pop3.aol.com etc or do i have to signup with one of these wap email providers like hotpop
in my email settings there is no username field only signature & from name, isnt there a way to just send a email to a internet based email account

The settings mentioned go in your email client, and they are the equivalent of what you would have to put into a client like Outlook if you wanted to use it to retrieve your email on your PC, instead of using the provider's web-based client.
You should have options in email>Inbox>accounts>New Account, where you can enter the IP addresses of the mail servers your email provider uses. If you don't know these, check with the provider's website, they should be listed somewhere. The most typical are something like pop.[domain name] or pop.mail.[domain name], for your incoming server, and the same but with smtp in place of pop for outgoing. |

We are telling you how to do that!
Have you looked where I suggested the options should be? On my phone you need to go to Messages>email>Inbox>Accounts>New Account - that is where you enter your username and server addresses. If you don't have those options, then either something is wrong with your phone, or the email client has been locked by your service provider. If that is the case, you'll have to use your phone service provider's wap email. Phone customer services to find out how.
BTW, if all you want to do is transfer pictures to your PC, it would be easier (not to mention cheaper) to just buy a data cable. |

Then I'm afraid it sounds like your phone is messed up. You may need to have it reflashed. Here are the settings I have in my email client:
Connect using
Protocol
Incoming server
Incoming port
Encryption
Mailbox
Password
Outgoing server
Outgoing port
Email address
Download
From name
Signature
Copy outgoing
Check interval
I suggest you contact your network provider's customer services. |

i have those field except encryption but iyour saying username, but i dont know what field that corresponds to. I tried it with hotpop but when i write the email and asks for the recipient name do i put the hotpop email address or my aol address which i want. i tried both and it tries to find server but no luck |
