Common Mail Servers & Ports
|
|
In order to access your email via the
internet you need to know the server name and port.
If you are unsure of your email server
or username and use a client such as Microsoft Outlook Express
or Netscape for email you can check your server information
by searching for "SMTP Server" under the help menu.
If this information was helpful please support the site by visiting one of the sponsors. |
|
Note: In the old days
all email server's were left "open" basically allowing anyone
to transmit email though them. As spam has become
more of an issues, most companies have begun to "close"
their email servers. When a server is closed it will
only allow select people to send email by requiring a password.
For instance only registered users of EarthLink can send
email through EarthLink's servers. If you are having
trouble sending email from your phone please check with
your ISP to see if they require "SMTP Authentication,"
if so you will need to enter your email username and password
under the SMTP Authentication window during setup.

Hotmail / Windows Live |

Hotmail uses the HTTP protocol for
connecting you to your mailbox. If you want to send and
receive Hotmail emails using an email client software, then
your software must support Hotmail HTTP access for your
email account. Clients, such as Outlook Express or
Microsoft Outlook, offer support for Hotmail accounts, so
you only have to select HTTP when you are asked to select
your email account type and select Hotmail as the HTTP Mail
Service Provider. Typically you can access your Hotmail
account through the WAP or HTTP browser on your phone.
You may want to sign up for a G-Mail or FreeServe Account
to access mail via the POP client from your phone. |
