Thanks Ozen

If nothing else I have learnt that there's a few 1and 1 users!

I have reverted to pop, and have incoming again. I've checked their settings and Mike is right, its auth.smtp.1and1.co.uk

When I try and send I'm now getting a message saying unable to connect to smtp server.....and that is with wi fi switched off

with wifi on it just says failed

Maybe there's a clue there somewhere as to what's going on?

works on mine with wifi

maybe we could swap phones?

Hello, I use streamline for my business email and I have to ensure that when using 3G, i use for outgoing email: send.vodafone.net

Then i need that setting for different smtp for different connections as I have to use my streamline one for when i use my home WiFi or in your case: smtp.1and1.com. any use?

Wes ok, I'm going to try that......

dont suppose uv used mail for exchange and pc suite sync have you. ive read about people with problems sending but not recieving emails after syncing both. some kind of conflict. cant offer any idvice though sorry but could that be your problem?

fingers crossed. i checked the VF settings and the 1and1 settings in terms of smtp addresses so i hope it helps. but to be honest, i spend a while sorting mine. i say a while, it was onlt a few hours but far longer than my n95! but, now it all works, i find the email so much easier than the n95!

I set specific connections, send.vodafone.net for wap, and auth.smtp.1and 1.co.uk for wifi......
still failed

I think I'm going to go to bed before I throw a beautiful phone out the window!

unfortunately mail for exchange doesnt work on n900, and dont even get me started on pc suite!

I tried using that recently and it told me to update to Ovi and after god knows how long downloading it, said its not compatible

I should have kept my 3310, never had any such problems!

i hear u dude, syncronization is the n900s biggest downpoint at the mo.hope u resolve ur problem though may the force be with u
