Hi,

New to the forum (evidently because I posted a question in answer section of a former post by mistake!!!), hope you can help!

Have mail.com set up on my android (ZTE Kis) and using server settings as above.
Incoming email is fine but outgoing a no go! Any thoughts? (have tried both 465 and 25 - SSL/non SSL), re-setting everything several times etc etc.... to no avail.... Thank you!

Everyone hi!

Managed to get it working at last!!!!! If anyone else has the same problem, these are the settings I have set up for my outgoing mail, mistake I made is thinking that where it asked 'require sign in' that this was optional and therefore wasn't ticking this option and entering details!!!:

Outgoing server smtp.mail.com
Port 465
Security type SSL
DO TICK the 'require sign in' box and enter username/password:
Username is your full email address i.e. xxxxxxxx@mail.com
Password is, well your password!
Then click 'Next(Check)' button

Worked for me, hope it helps others.... Cheers!

Hi!
Thank you for your reply but no, doesn't help at all...
1) I don't have an iPhone but an android ZTE Kis
2) Error message is not xxxxx not found or whatever, I just get 'connection error' if I try to send a message or again push it through from my outbox
3) No such thing as SMTP server password section/option on my phone...

Any other idea???
