Help Mail issues with Captivate

[stenobeagle]

I went to the ATT site to get the proper settings to set up my att.net mail account and they are incomplete on their site, so therefore I think I am experiencing problems receiving mail. What are the complete settings for receiving e-mail with the e-mail boxes that come with the phone? I don't want to set up the yahoo icon stuff. I want one place where I can look at my e-mails. I also set the frequency to 5 minutes, the lowest time, even though I am used to "push" -- very frustrating... Thanks in advance! - Lance

The issue is it does not know what type of AT&T acccounts you have since they were consolidated from various sources. If, for example you have an old WorldNet Account the settings att.net via Yahoo will not work.

You need to go into you mail app on the PC and find out the settiings to use on a POP3 client. If you need the WN ones let me know and I will post them for you.

If you could post the WN ones, that would be appreciated!!! Thanks so much!

For WorldNet Manually Provision the following....

Port 995

Hope that helps
