Hi

I have a Nokia N95 on T Mob. and want to use my Virgin Media (@ntlworld)
email account.

I can receive email using my incoming mail server (pop.ntlworld.com), but
cannot send email using my (smtp.ntlworld.com) outgoing server, the phone
just prompts me to reenter my user name and password for the remote
mailbox....I know these are enterd corectly, but no joy.

My access point is via T Mob internet......how do I set this up to be able
to send email ?

Ta in advance

Jon

Does your Virgin/NTL email service permit you to use its SMTP server when
not connected to it via your Virgin/NTL internet connection?

No, it appears that I need to set my outgoing mail server to
smtp.t-email.co.uk
and use my ntlworld username and password.

I use BTInternet on my n95 via T-Mobile web'n'walk and have no problem
sending mail from smtp.btinternet.com, I just make sure that I have my
username and password for the email account in there so it
authenticates as I'm sending email from a non-btinternet IP
(T-Mobile).

If that fails can you not use the T-Mobile SMTP server (I assume there
is one) but just stating your From & Reply-to addresses being your
NTHell account?

Hi BGN, and thanks.

It appears that I need to set my outgoing mail server to smtp.t-email.co.uk
and use my ntlworld username and password.

Works fine now, I downloaded these settings from the T Mob website, which
asked for my Internet provider, so clearly differs for each.

Incoming is still pop.ntlwolrld.com
