    You don't want to get me started - I'll put the call centre staff in a headlock.

    Have fun typing all that. For your sake I hope it works.

    Chances are this is going to sound incredibly troglodyte-ish lol, but anyway;

    On GoogleMail, I set it to enable ALL POP stuff, i.e. the first of the 3 options on display, IMAP is disabled. Now, on my phone, I've gone to message >> settings >> emails >> mailbox setup wizard where I assume I type in all that malarky?
  3. This is for a Samsung 2006-07-ish phone, but I guess the general stuff is pretty similar.

    # From standby, press Menu to enter the main menu.
    # Highlight ‘Messages’ and press Select (Figure 1).
    # Scroll down to the fifth item, called ‘Settings’, and press Select (Figure 2).
    # Choose ‘Emails’ and press Select (Figure 3).
    # Now highlight ‘Email accounts’ (Figure 4) and press Select. Choose ‘Account settings’ (Figure 5) and press Select.
    # By default, all the items in the Account settings will be blank so press Select to set up your first email account in the ‘Account 1’ slot.
    # You start with the ‘Account name’ text box highlighted. Enter a name for your account such as ‘Gmail’. Press Down on the direction pad to continue (Figure 6).
    # Under ‘User name’, enter your own name, then press Down on the direction pad.
    # Highlight ‘Email address’ and enter your full email address. Press Down on the direction pad.
    # You should now have reached ‘SMTP server’ settings (Figure 7). Enter the SMTP (outgoing) server address, or if you don’t want to send emails from your phone, you can leave this blank. Press Down on the direction pad to continue.
    # Unless you have skipped the last part, enter the SMTP port number and Down on the direction pad (Figure 8).
    # Ensure POP3 is shown in the ‘Protocol type’ box. If not scroll Left or Right until it appears.
    # Scroll down to highlight ‘POP3 server’ and enter your POP3 (incoming) server address. Press Down on the direction pad to continue.
    # Enter the POP3 port number.
    # Now you need to enter your ‘User ID’. Highlight it and enter the User ID required by your email account. Press Down on the direction pad when you’ve finished.
    # Enter your email password then press Down on the direction pad.
    # If you are required to use SMTP authentication, press the ‘i’ button in the centre of direction pad to mark the check box.
    # Scroll down to ‘Secure connection’. If your email provider needs a secure connection (sometimes called SSL) press right or left to ensure it is set to ‘On’.
    # Now press Save to store your new email profile

    So it did work? I never thought it would.

    Even though you got it fixed, I am going to detail my rant tomorrow afternoon. It is an epic, spread out over three weeks...the story of the week. More exciting than the tour, let me assure you. * It is that good. *




    * Not really, but you've gotta build up the hype somehow.

    It actually did!

    Ah hell, I was looking forward to it - if you ever feel the need to PM me with it

    I think the main think was that I'd have my email name as Googlemail 'cause I didn't realise it needed your actual address (or rather, that seems to have been part of the success) along with changing to the correct outgoing/incoming port numbers. Aha, I'm a happy man for that - I can Twitter away come August now

    Yeah you gotta have your full email - you know that now. Now I just gotta get a phone that works and if U2 come to Australia - we shall be set.

    As long as I can repeat the exact conversation I had, word-for-word and my shouting at their call centre, it shall be here, in full.

    I can honestly say that I look forward to it!

    Speaking of U2 coming to Aussie land, you could always try and get yourself to Europe or the States instead...saves time etc

    But if my story disappoints...then the hype will have been for nothing. What then?

    I should try and get tickets....or I should have tried, should be the correct statement.


    I might be going in a minute, so if I'm not back, then you know I've gone to the dark side.

    Are there any left? It's pretty cheap to get over to Cardiff at the moment - Swine Flu Specials.

  12. Buggered if I know lol, I'll have a look. Swine Flu Specials ...probably best to move this over to the 360 Tour topic for the sake of keeping things tidy, don't want Dan on our case after all, or Chris for that matter
