Right, I'm having what's probably a numpty problem with my new phone. I can send & receive email whilst in Wifi range of my router. But when using only the phone signal I can't send anything. I can still receive ok but can't reply.
My emails are also dissapearing, but that's probably related to something else 👿
Anyone else found a solution ?
TIA Dave.
It's to do with your email provider only letting you send from your primary account ISP address. Set up a Gmail account. Android phones love gmail obviously. You can then receive emails from both accounts on your phone and reply/send via Gmail. It's what I do.
My inbox mails also disappear after a time so it only shows recent mails - they are all still there on gmail though - I think its the HTC email client clearing out stuff and I can't find any settings for it to change. Switch to the gmail app (which is better anyway!!)
On a similar point, how do you stop it getting your mail?
I only want it to get emails when I'm away for a few days, yet there doesnt seem to be anyway of doing this, I think the lowest setting is once a day.
This is useless, as I get around 2000 spam mails a day, and dont want to get all of these automatically sent to my phone when I am at home.

alanl - in settings > frequency you can select days. I'd imagine if you untick these, it won't update. This is on my Desire HD anyway.
Thanks for the replies. Seems bladdy insane when I can go to Mail2web & check my mail from anywhere 👿 Why do they have to make this so flippin difficult....Grrrr
I'm off to hug my Reverb 😯
Enable authentication on your SMTP server settings. Check with your email provider on how to do this.
