280478 2004-10-12 09:05:00 Hi, just wondering if its possible with the very normal models. I don't mean using the fancy handsets that is like 1/2 a PDA ...

I tried it on a Motorola, what I found out is I can send email out. However I can only check email via Vodafone Live. There is something called Inbox (for text) and "Email Inbox" which obviously as it sound should be for emails. I just can't get vodafone emails, I have tried my pop server of my Internet ISP, I cannot get this either.

Anyone had success with receiving emails into the inbox rather than via Vodafone Live?? I have contacted the data team at Vodafone, but they said to me I can try my Internet ISP for their pop address - which does not work. Vodafone as I aware only supplied a smtp server, I substituted a POP instead of the SMTP but it does not work....

Thanks.

280480 2004-10-12 21:13:00 eh .. thats vodafone live right?
also, they have notificatiions with truncated text msg whenever I get an email from vodafone or via my ISP (Clear Net).
wapEmail which also supports Clear Net, is that time based?

280481 2004-10-12 21:16:00 is there a way of actually using the Email Inbox instead like plonking pop.vodafone.co.nz or the like into the settings and it actually works? nomad (3693)
280482 2004-10-12 21:41:00 I use a t68i ($199 cheapie) to send and receive my @vodafone . net . nz e-mail address . This is via the messages menu, and I don't have to connect to any WAP / Vodafone Live site to connect .

I've got it set-up via the IMAP4 protocol, which means when I delete messages on my phone, it deletes them off the server . I was told by Vodafone that IMAP4 was better than POP3 .

I'm pretty sure I can change it to send and receive any POP3 Mail Box?

280483 2004-10-12 21:50:00 I forgot to mention, Vodafone sent the e-mail setting straight to my phone, which installed automatically (these are different from the Vodafone Live settings). If your phone is GPRS / Wap capable they may be able to set your up too Marlboro (4607)
280484 2004-10-12 23:15:00 i'll give imap a try .. what sorta setting did you use to identify with your ISP??

280485 2004-10-12 23:16:00 I have a nokia 6230.And there's a email client built into my phone.I just scroll to the menue .click on email and retrieve and it will retrieve all my emails from 2 vodafone email accounts and also 2 other paradise account.
I can type an email from the email client and send it out also.
I use it all the time for trademe.When somebody uses buy now.I catch the email straight away and reply to them

280486 2004-10-12 23:18:00 I setup all my emails using pop3 in my nokia phone!
As long as your phone has a built in email client then it will be able to send and retrieve emails.

Quite easy really

Incoming mail server
pop.vodafone.net.nz

Outgoing mail server

smtp.vodafone.net.nz

Your email adress @vodafone.net.nz
Yourpassword

Put those setting into the phone and your away!
