I'm having trouble getting my email accounts set up on my phone with the new WM6.

I actually am very unclear about how to set it up in general. On the WM5, I only managed to get my Villanova email account working but the same settings won't work on WM6. Would someone be able to help me out? I'm not sure how I found what the Incoming Mail/Outgoing Mail server as well as what the account type is.

My apologies if these are very remedial, basic questions.

what type of email account are set up? your Villanova account again or that one is working?

I'd like to add my Villanova account, Gmail and Yahoo. I currently can't get any to send/receive.

gmail and yahoo should be simple, and villanova shouldn't be too hard if you find the settings. i haven't upgraded to the wm6, but don't see why the settings would be any different. i have an aol account and all i have to do is put in my email address and it will automatically configure it for me. suprised it doesn't do that for yahoo, too. ---after a quick search it looks like you need to upgrade to a free yahoo!plus mail account for mobile mail, and then turn on the POP mail feature. then use this information:
Incoming mail (POP3) server: pop.mail.yahoo.com
Outgoing mail (SMTP) server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com (use authentication, optionally use port 587)
Account Name/Login Name: your Yahoo! Mail ID (your email address without the "@yahoo.com")

Gmail:
Basic Email Settings for Gmail

Incoming mail (POP3) server: pop.gmail.com (use SSL and port 995)
Outgoing mail (SMTP) server: smtp.gmail.com (use authentication and SSL; use port 465 or 587)
Account Name/Login Name: your full Gmail email address (username@gmail.com)

Personally i've never had to use port numbers for anything, but i guess it can't hurt and maybe that's why they don't send/receive for you? good luck

found a nice link, check it out here:
Setting up your personal email account on your Windows Mobile Treo smartphone

for palm, but windows mobile settings are universal as far as mail settings

Great help. Thanks a lot. The only question i have is how you find out what the incoming and outgoing mail servers are? That's what I'd need to find for my Villanova account.

you're talking about Villanova University student/faculty email, right? I'll see what i can find. (and watch out for Louisville basketball this coming season)

here you go:
Email Settings
Mail Servers:
- Incoming: imap.villanova.edu
- Outgoing: smtp.villanova.edu

You are the man. Thanks.

I was with you till you threw lousiville at me. I'm a huge knicks fan and have always loved Rick but we have some studs coming in this year, but I think this is for a differnet forum/day. Thanks again for the help
