POP3 Email Setup in WM2003

---

Hi,

Has anyone setup POP3 email receiving/sending using their cell phone line (instead of GPRS) and connecting to their dial-up service from the SX56?

I have tried several times on the WM2003, but couldn't get it to work! Is this doable?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Dave

Not sure, but I think AT&T might not let you use dialup for data calls (called "CSD"). Are you able to surf the Internet on your SX56 via dial-up?

Just checked - my cell carrier is T-Mobile and the ISP I dialed into is myFreeI.

Worked fine for me both for surfing and Inbox email. T-Mobile permits CSD data connections and tells you how to set up a CSD connection in the user manual. Again, AT&T may not support doing this.

Works fine for me

Can anyone send me the play-by-play directions to set this up? Not sure what I am doing wrong. I am setting this up in Connections, with my dial up number, user id, password etc. When I dial, its dialing but NOT negotiating/handshaking and establishing a connection. The number I am dialing to is a valid number. I use Earthlink for my POP3/SMTP.

Thanks,
Dave

Is AT&T your cell carrier? I'm more sure now that it won't work over AT&T - they need to activate CSD (but I think the catch is that they won't).

POP3/SMTP on WM@2003 using ATT

---

Hi Henry:

Yes I am using AT&T. Thanks for the link to the thread on this discussion. After reading it, I am now convinced AT&T has blocked this service. There is an argument to be made for sharing the same bandwith with data as well as voice. However, then we the consumers are left with the GPRS stick and exhorbitant pricing!

I am hoping someone will come up with cooking the ATT ROM which will allow ISP direct dial up from cell phones using WM2003 Connections and still maintaining ATT cell phone services.

Thanks,
Dave

O2 UK POP3 settings & GSM data type

---

Have any O2 UK customers got POP3 to work when using GSM data type connection as opposed to GPRS?

I've tried a few times but to no avail. Here are the settings I am using:

Email address - "username"@o2.co.uk
Account type - POP3
Name - POP3
Incoming mail - mail.o2.co.uk
Outgoing mail - smtp.o2.co.uk
Domain - www.o2.co.uk

Are there any problems with these settings?

Thanks

I use my standard settings, username ??????@blueyonder.co.uk. Password: ????. pop3: pop3.blueyonder.co.uk. SMTP: smtp.blueyonder.co.uk. Works fine over gsm. I am Payandgo customer.
