This is really frustrating - I still cannot connect - just get the error message 'server not found'.
Settings :
Pop3 server: 216.136.173.10
Pop3 port: 110
SMTP Server: 216.136.173.12
SMTP Port: 25
I'm trying to access a Yahoo account and I am on Vodaphone
Please help !

I would wager a bet that your service provider does not support POP3.
I can connect with GPRS, which won't support my pop3 settings, or I can dial up a circuit switched data connection which will. Try contacting Vodaphone to see if they have any suggestions. |

Success !!!!!
Finally managed to get this working - however, is it possible to choose a folder other than Inbox from which to retrieve emails ?
I know - I'm never happy

to get an IP adress you can also:
1. open a DOS BOX
type ping smtp.yahoo.com
the answer looks something like this:
Pinging smarthost.yahoo.com [216.145.54.171] with 32 by
Reply from 216.145.54.171: bytes=32 time=180ms TTL=231
Reply from 216.145.54.171: bytes=32 time=170ms TTL=231
Reply from 216.145.54.171: bytes=32 time=160ms TTL=231
Reply from 216.145.54.171: bytes=32 time=170ms TTL=231
as you propably guessed 216.145.54.171 is the IP adress.
perhaps more easy then looking for a search engine to find "reverse IP lookup" or "reverse DNS lookup"up |

If you really want to go IP address hunting you can use a nice little piece of software called NeoTrace Pro. It will find an IP address for anything, URLs, smtp servs etc, not only that but it will give you mail addresses and ping/retrace nodes around the world (in graphics). Very professional program and easy to use, also used by h4><0rs to be naughty |

Help! Am trying to configure Yahoo POP3 email on my t68.
I've successfully set up GPRS WAP (Orange Swiss subscriber) am able to download logos, etc
I've set up POP3+SMTP using both DNS+IP address of yahoo, also configured Yahoo WWW to enable download of emails via POP3.
I've opened and closed WAP connection to attempt download of emails.. _but_ still gives me the 'Cannot Connect to Server' or 'Server not found'.
Could it be the fact that my GSM/GPRS provider doesn't support POP3/SMTP ? Can anyone enlighten me?
Thank you! |

I use my T68 with Voicestream service in New York. I followed the instructions on downloading Yahoo POP3 email on the T68, and I am able to connect both using GPRS and circuit switched. However, I am only getting the subjects of the email messages downloaded, not the text of the body. This happens with both forms of connection.
Does anybody have any idea what I'm doing wroing? Thanks. |

@Shahmoon, please note that the T68 email client cannot display web-formatted mail. if it receives such, you won't see the body. my subscription with cnet.com is web-formatted, and i don't get the body. other than that, it is ok. |

I have been trying to access yahoo mail by making the T68 email client to connect to a regular ISP. I have set the thing up according to the various posts in this forum. I created an analog gsm data connection. I entered ip numbers for the pop server. I also activated the POP3 option of my US Yahoo account. I was never successful(server not found message which drives me nuts). But I recently had success with my university account. I started forwarding my yahoo mails to my university account and I'm very happy since then |
