Galaxy S5 Won't Connect to Email Server for POP3 or IMAP

I use POP3 from a rackspace webmail account. I use it on my PC and a few mobile devices.
Got a new S5 and all seems good except setting up my rackspace email.
I know all the setting are good, I can verify them with rackspace and on my other devices.
I have confirmed I have a good internet connection, both via wifi and the Vz network.
I tried setting up as IMAP instead, and the S5 also does not authenticate with the email server.
Rackspace can't help me, their settings are simple and work fine on other devices.
I've tried using my wifi and with wifi turned off.
Other mail (yahoo and gmail) both work fine.
Any good ideas?

After setting up Incoming Server it returns an error ”Unable to connect to server –ERR Authentication failed)”
I never get beyond this.

  • My iPad won't connect to a server for mail only.  This happened after my update to 7.02 update to 7.02

    MY iPad mini cannot connect to the server for Yahoo! email. I am able to access internet and Facebook.  This connection error came after an upgrade to 7.02. Has anyone else had this issue? Have you been able to resolve it? I have checked all my account info, deleted and re-entered my account, rebooted my iPad. Nothing has helped.

    Is your iPad jailbroken?

  • Mac won't connect to ftp server for iweb

    my mac won't connect  to the ftp server. i have been
    trying to publish a site on iweb

    Well, do you actually have a web host server to be able to connect to in the first place.  You need this before you can publish a website from iWeb in that way.
    Also, you don't publish a site on iWeb.  You use iWeb to design your website and then publish from iWeb to your web host/server.
    What version of iWeb are you using?
    More info generally would be useful.

    You say you have the pse 5 disk?
    I guess you do't have a dvd drive on your new windows 8 computer?
    Do you have access to another computer with a dvd drive?
    Anyway if you can find another computer with a dvd drive you could copy the pse 5 install disc to removable device like a camera card or flash drive.
    You can also buy cheap usb dvd drives.

  • Won't connect to afp server

    We have a 2 x 2 GHz G5 which was recently upgraded to X.4.5 and connected to a Gigabit switch. Everything initially worked fine. The other day the computer crashed while compressing files in Cleaner, and since then it won't connect to our server anymore, and Cleaner won't startup either. Internet acces still works. Our two other macs, with similar configurations, still have acces to the server.
    When I try to connect to our server a window appears saying connecting to afp://... then a second window appears which says searching for "name of server" but they just stall there.
    When I tried to launch Cleaner, the same second window appears saying searching for server, but Cleaner won't launch. I trashed Cleaner's prefs and it now launchs.
    I tried trashing the network prefs, to no avail.
    any ideas ?
    Cheers,
    Damien

    UPDATE
    Although the other macs could connect via AFP, this particular G5 couldn't until the password scheme for AFP was set to "Apple Clear Text" on the Windows Small Business 2003 Server.
    - On the server Go "Start'
    - Right Click "My Computer"
    - Choose "Manage" - This will open the Computer Management Window
    - Right click "Shared Folders"
    - Choose "Configure File Server For Macintosh"
    - Under "Enable Authentication" choose "Apple Clear Text" from the menu
    - Click "Apply", then "OK"
    If this isn't done, some OSX Macs may receive a -35 error when trying to connect to the server - I still don't know why the other macs we're fine as all Macs were running OS 10.4.6
      Mac OS X (10.4.6)   WIndows Small Business Server 2003

    Why does my connection to email server time out on default port?

    Hi there,
    There may be a conflict between the network settings and your devices. I would recommend taking a look at the article below and comparing that to your routers current settings.

    I need a request code for offline activation. Because i cannot connect with adobe server for online activation. But I receive "The request code is invalid." by generate answer code.

    Dear Anubha,
    I hope these windows illustrate what I am facing.
    The above window shows the prompt that the software requires activation.
    The version is 8.1.0.
    This next window is the point where I select activation by phone.
    This final window shows that the "response code" is not returned.  I get an
    "Activation Number" instead.

  • What is the best email server for ios

    What is the best email server for ios

    Im going to go ahead and assume your talking to me?
        I ended up in this thread in search of a functional Exchange ready mail client capable of supporting multiple mail profiles. Since there are no free applications to accomplish this in the app stor, which I can find, I figured I'd leverage the 'community' for some direction before throwing good money after bad.
       As I assume Im not the only one to do this, I figured I'd help straighten these folks out on the lingo (as they werne't applying it properly) and the sassy 'sound like apple users' comment references the way ANTI-apple folks assume you people are less than adequite users.
       If I called an apple an orange, you would say I was wrong. If I did it repeatedly, after correction, you would assume Im incompetant.
       Seriously, its a stupid machine and will only do what you tell it. (true for all computers, apple or otherwise)
       So if I ask for a mail client, dont give me a provider. If I ask for a service, dont name a client. 
        Your right, this post is old. And stilll doesnt have an answer. . .
        In response to MichelPM, I didnt call your baby ugly. The 'Bandwagoning' is cute though. My advice is sound, and helping you folks not to look so... well... stupid.
        Since you interceded though, how about a little help? What mail client do you use? Is it exchange Compatible, with active sync? Does it offer multi-profile support? And the clients want images in their signatures, and multi signature support. (I can do this with my android phone ) 
    Im looking forward to your responses.

  • My email server is pop3, but Apple's Mail Settings Lookup is showing it as an IMAP. Any ideas how to get Apple showing the correct details?

    My email server is pop3, but Apple's Mail Settings Lookup is showing it as an IMAP. Any ideas how to get Apple showing the correct details?

    Leave feedback for Apple at www.apple.com/feedback, or contact your email provider.  It's the email providers that give that info to Apple, so both parties need to be updated.

  • ICloud email won't connect to the server

    icloud email does not work on my iPhone. It worked for a day or two, but now I get an error message that says "cannot get mail, connection to the server failed." I have deleted the account and reinstalled it to no avail. Any suggestions?
    Thank you

    Same here. I began getting the "cannot get mail ... Incorrect password" alert on both my iPhone 4s and iPad (3) about two days ago. Oddly, it will retrieve mail at random times, though yesterday it had not populated my phone for 22 hours, despite getting mail on my Mac. I've also noticed it no longer marks mail that ihas been read, consistently across all three.
    On both the iPad and iPhone I've gone into mail settings, clicked on the account tab, but then done nothing, and then watched it get mail. Something is definitely amiss with iCloud at this point.

  • Won't connect to email servers when switching networks!

    I get spontaneous "Wrong User name and password" error messages when nothing has changed and I'm in the exact same spot. It just suddenly appears.
    WORST OF ALL, When I switch from Wifi To Edge or vice versa, the iphone just hangs at "connecting to server" when checking email. Have to do a restart for it to check in to the mothership and get new mail. And even then, it's not 100 percent effective.
    Many times I get mail headers but it won't download the message itself. Very frustrating. any news or thoughts?

    Hey Tommy,
    Is this a POP email account that is getting locked? It may be pop locked if two email clients are connecting to the server at the same time. This article: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=307009 provides more detailed information.
    Also, if the Mail application appears to be stuck at checking mail you can force quit the application. Just hold down the home button for about 7 seconds. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2032

  • How to connect to iPad server for email

    How to connect to iPad server to get email

    What do you mean by "iPad server"? Who is your email provider? To add an email account to your iPhone, see Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendar>Add New Account. If your email provider is not one of the listed ones, you may need to get specific settings from your provider.
    Best of luck.

  • TS3899 Device won't connect with email

    My ipod touch stopped connecting with email a couple of weeks ago. I went through all the steps on the support  website. After deleting the account from the device, I tried to add it back and now all I get is a message that says "the IMAP server "apple.imap.mail.yahoo.com" is not responding". I have tried multiple times and checked all info for correctness.

    Try resetting your Yahoo password. That is how I resolved your problem on my iPhone.
