Default Problems with email since rom update

Hi. for some reason since updating my mda vario 3 i cannot send emails using my ntlworld email.i can still recieve emails though.i have tried changing all settings in email but no joy.

I have also tried about 4 diffrent roms and a few diffrent radios.

at the moment im running on hardspl 3.29 , mobilevista 1.3 and radio 1.65.14.06

my hotmail emails work ok using windows live so to me it seems like an smtp error but ive checked and double checked and its what its always set to.

any ideas?

many thanks

I had a similar problem after flashing a ROM, and I don't know if this will help, but try going to:

Start > Settings > Connections (Tab) > Connections > Advanced (Tab) > Select Networks > Edit... > Proxy Settings (Tab) > Uncheck "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the Internet"

This worked for me, although I don't know if it will work for you, but I think it's worth a shot, as it also fixes the weather update in HTC Home.

Have a look at outgoing server authentification in the account setup - make sure it's enabled.

If you're receving but not sending this is most likely the cause.

have you tried flashing back to the rom you had when it did work, just to make sure it's not some sort of network error related to your email service? Not that you can do anything about it now, but this probably should have been posted in the Kaiser General forum. Just for future reference. It's nice when people post stuff in the right places.

This happens to me frequently when I change roms - out of curiousity did you use sprite backup to restore your info? I am on ATT and even though settings = proxy disabled/smtp server=cwmx.com/no authentication and haven't changed, my account will recieve email, but not send... I have also had some problems with some corporate emails when I try to reply, but not if I initiate the email myself (wtf?)
The solution for me was to delete the email account from the account picker and then click on new email account icon & enter all the info again for the same account - a PITA but it hasn't failed me yet.
If someone has a simpler solution I would be ecstatic.

Since it's not even working on the original rom then i think the problem is either in the email network, or in the settings rather than the rom, but that's merely conjecture.
