Ovi mail doesnt work
 

So I've finally got my hand on Nokia services and tried to active Ovi Mail using email client's wizard. I've typed my login and password but when I click send and receive it doesn't gets refreshed. Can anyone help me?

btw I use Gmail without any problems and IMAP email of my university

Thanks :)

Re: Ovi mail doesnt work
 

what service are you using and what device?

Re: Ovi mail doesnt work
 

N900 of course and what do you mean by service? I've activated my *******@ovi.com and want to use it to send and receive emails on N900

Re: Ovi mail doesnt work
 

Well it should work right out of the box... The only problem when that happens to me is when my internet connection got held up and it wouldn't refresh ... have you tried restarting your phone?

Re: Ovi mail doesnt work
 

That's the thing , I've read that most people had troubles with activating Gmail on N900 but for me it works. Dont know why Ovi wont connect :(

Yea I tried to restart and even deleted and created a new one

Re: Ovi mail doesnt work
 

ovimail never auto refreshes for me either,
o2mail works fine tho?
just typical that nokias own mail service not working properly on a nokia handset!

Re: Ovi mail doesnt work
 

check these settings:

Account Title:
Name:
Username:
Pass:
Email:
Incoming server :imap.mail.ovi.com
port: 993
outgoing server : smtp.mail.ovi.com
username
Pass:
SSL
port: 465


btw have you sent a test email to yourself to see if can work or not?

Re: Ovi mail doesnt work
 

Haha this is ridiculous I've just sent an email from my Gmail to that address and it works now :D

Thanks vietn900 for hint , I didn't thought about test email ;)

Re: Ovi mail doesnt work
 

yeah, I guess it did refreshed, it is just that there was no new mail in your inbox lol

Re: Ovi mail doesnt work
 

i have those settings, but like i said, ovimail never auto refreshes, i have to manually send/recieve

Re: Ovi mail doesnt work
 

My update interval is set to 1 hour so I cant comment on that yet and yes I did manual a refresh :)

Re: Ovi mail doesnt work
 

you can change that. go to the screen that has all your accounts the tap the "e-mail" at the top bar and tap settings ... scroll down and it lets you select update automatically, and set the intervals for updates. I set mine to 30mins interval and auto update on any connection automatically

Re: Ovi mail doesnt work
 

also everytime i manually refresh, inbox always shows '1 new message' but when i open inbox theres none?
it has always done this.
if i do have 1 email, inbox shows as '2 new messages'
ect... ect... ect...
o2mail is always perfect though so i use that instead

Re: Ovi mail doesnt work
 

that happens to me too. It turns out that there was one unread mail that is buried in my inbox somewhere and i couldn't get rid of it until i marked as read. Idk about your situation thought. I find the email on n900 is helpful to me :)

Re: Ovi mail doesnt work
 

no mate you dont understand!
ovbiously i already have it set like that or o2 wouldnt auto update!,
o2mail updates fine, but ovi NEVER does, thats final! there is no fix! ive lived with it since i got the phone, it aint a problem to me, im just sharing my knowledge on the subject, thanks for trying to help tho bro!
