Pop3 mail via WLAN and GPRS

[mso1967]

Hi,

I'm currently running L24 V4 and I experience an anoying problem in the internet connection using pop3 email (messaging). When I enable my WLAN it won't send/receive my email via this connection. Instead it opens a GRPS connection. This is not what I want. The second problem is that when I try to connect trough gprs it only works when I set the network connection in advanced server settings of "edit account setup" of my pop3 account to "Vodafone GPRS". Settings like "work" and "the internet" doesn't let me connect to grps at all. So doing this way it looks like I'm forcing the email connection to GPRS.

I have this problem only for email. Browsing the internet goes fine. If I have WLAN it goes trough wireless. If WLAN is not on it opens GPRS. For mail this doesn't work.

Any idea?

Cheers!
Martin

I have this same exact problem. Is this a known problem or does anyone have a fix? I'm using the official HTC WM6.1 rom btw.

Also, just to clarify, if I change the Network connection setting to 'The Internet' in the POP3 email settings, I can send/receive email over wifi but not via GPRS/3G. If I change the Network connection setting to 'MEdia Net' (US AT&T GPRS/3G connection), I can send/receive email via GPRS/3G, and it always uses GPRS/3G even if wifi is available. All other internet programs I use (Internet Explorer Mobile, Opera Mini, CorePlayer, HTC Home weather) connect over wifi when available instead of using GPRS/3G.
