Getting POP3 Accounts to Connect to Native Playbook Email.

My e-mail accounts which are hosted at namespro.ca will not connect with the Playbook Native e-mail client.
I have setup my Gmail account and it works fine.
The Namespro accounts need port 110 no SSL for incoming and port 2525 no SSL for outgoing. It also needs to have Outgoing Authentication = ON but the Playbook doesn't offer this option and Secure Logon = Off but the Playbook doesn't offer this option either.
Strange thing is it has downloaded some messages but then it keeps getting 'Can not connect with server" messages. Now it gets the error message all the time.
I also don't see an Option to tell the Playbook to leave the e-mail on the server. Some say they do have that option. Is that option available?

Playbook email app synchronises with web mail, think of it as a remote webmail access app. That means if you delete a mail in playbook it deletes it in webmail.
Any option to "Leave on server" when POP mail is accessed my an email client is usually an option in the webmail account. There is no option in Playbook for that.
Can't help with the namespro.ca problem.
EDIT: Have you tried the second more secure option described at
http://www.namespro.ca/KB-how-do-i-access-my-mailbox-using-an-e-mail-client.asp
or the IMAP options at

My old itunes account is connected to a defunct email account so I can't merge itunes libraries because I can't get into the old account,it used to be my mom's

What can I do,I don't want to lose my libraries,both of them. The old ipod I had is dead,I have a new classic And want both libraries but I cannot access my old email,because it was my mom's account and I can't remember her old password and neither can she this account was made a long,long time ago,tried to get into the account to update it but forgot that password and it's all locked up now.So is there another way to verify my old email address? besides sending it an email I can't access? This is frustrating as anything.

Forgot iPhone passcode can be done:
1.Press down the Home and Power buttons on your iPhone until it shuts off.
2.Connect it to your computer with the USB cable.
3.Press and hold down the Home button.
4.Hold it down until iTunes says your device is entering recovery mode.
Then you can restore using iTunes.

Iphone 3G - cannot get POP3 email accounts from verizon to work

I have tried everything I know to do. I am unable to get my 2 verizon pop3 accounts to connect. Any suggestions? I am somewhat dismayed at the apparent Apple attitude that it's our problem, not theirs. In the past I've always been able at Verizon to talk to someone and resolve a problem. Not here it seems. Maybe I've made a mistake.

I have SUCCESSFULLY gotten my 2 Verizon POP accounts to work on my iPhone 3G. It took some trial and error but I haven't read this solution anywhere but it worked for me. I can send and receive from the iPhone from anywhere.
Prerequisite:
You need to set this up from your home or wherever your Verizon access is and you need WiFi there.
First:
Delete any Verizon accounts you set up that don't currently work.
Second:
Turn on and log into your home base WiFi.
Third:
Go to mail set up and add account/other.
Fourth:
Fill in the four fields using your exact Verizon mail account information. I say exact because I use a forwarding service to alias my email. Not now, that comes later and works too.
Fifth:
You will get an error (in due time, not quickly) that will ask if you should try again with SSL turned OFF. Answer YES.
Sixth:
Repeat; that error will come a second time. Answer YES again to turn SSL off. If you are lucky you should get four quick check marks on the settings and the account will be created.
Seventh:
Now send a test message (WiFI still running) to an outside email you can get to, like GMAIL or Yahoo etc. It may be slow to go, the first time. Hopefully it worked and you can reply and receive it back. You may need to refresh your mailbox. It gets faster/normal later.
Eighth: (Optional)
If it worked and you have an alias, change the appropriate fields now and test again and check the resulting email on the outside service.
Ninth:
and hopefully last. If all is well to this point. Turn off WiFi and test with AT&T native services. It should work. Make sure your Fetch options are turned on as Verizon isn't push.
Please post your results if this helps you!
One bad thing, since we set up this account manually it can't impost your folder structure and I can't see how to add any in iPhone OS.
I'm not sure exactly why this worked but my educated guess is by using the WiFi we're inside the Verizon firewall and the servers greet you as a known entity. Then when it works and you come from AT&T it recognizes you and welcomes you in. A handshake of some sort. It's not perfect and sometimes the fetch doesn't work, you may need to kick it along. But, you'll get your mail until Apple & Verizon, and maybe other services make nice.

One of my blackberry playbook email accounts quit working and I have done everything in my power to get it back up and going to no avail. I finally deleted it and tried to put it back on. Forget that. What is up with this? I have had playbook from the sta

now i am really frustrated with it. Every single update has robbed me of battery power which began with about 8-10 hours of usage and now I am lucky if I get 2 hours. It isn't the battery. It has something to do with the updates to the OS. It was fine until the first one and it has only gotten worse each time. I have had three email accounts on here since they started with the message app and now it has gone crazy. It gives me a server error message each time. I put in the same settings for it as the ones on my laptop to no avail. I am ready to scream. I have worked for days trying to get this email account back on my BB playbook, NOT! And also I want another reader on here. Kobo is great, but I would love to have another option as well. I tried to put some pdf books on it a few days ago and they wouldn't show up when I put them on. Some did and some didn't. I am so frustrated with playbook. I have loved it till the last 2 weeks. Now, I am extremely frustrated to say the least. Well I have been upset about the battery thing almost from the get go. Can anyone help with the email thing. My email is a bellsouth account. I have 2 yahoo accounts on it and they seem to be fine, but afraid to take them off and re-put them all back on lest they should do the same thing.

There is nothing wrong with the OS update.
Delete ALL your email accounts.
Restart Playbook
Put the accounts back and ensure they are all set with PUSH ON. Manual (push off) will burn battery.
Similarly delete your wifi connections and add back when required.
Turn off wifi is not connected to wifi.
Any "hunting for connection" in email or wifi will burn up battery.

Multiple Signatures on Exchange/Outlook 365 with multiple connected pop3 accounts wanting sepearate signatures

I was referred here from another thread, see
http://community.office365.com/en-us/f/158/p/245124/778388.aspx#778388but not sure if this is the right forum, so please move/correct my posting if needed!
It's a exchange/Outlook365 query, relating to signatures
I have several connected pop3 accounts to the exchange mailbox, but there appears to be no way to have separate signatures for each connected account, in fact there appears to be only 1 signature for the entire account? So when I send emails I can select
from several different from addresses, but the signature remains the same ...
On desktop outlook 2003-2010 at least, there is the ability to have default reply, default new message signatures for each account in use, is there a way to configure the exchange/outlook365 OWA to do this ?
I'm about to test if an outlook 2010 desktop client allows/recognises the server side linked accounts and allows email to be sent from them, so any tips or points on that would be welcome!
thanks

In Outlook2010 you can set multiple signatures, yes.
If you connect to those accounts LOCALLY using POP3 you can also then set defaults for each account ... HOWEVER
if you set the CONNECTED ACCOUNTS via OUTLOOK365 via the cloud server, the local Outlook will not let you set default signatures for each account. Yes you can have signatures and manually select them, but that's not the same thing, and leads to mistakes.
The whole point of connecting the accounts via the Cloud is that the local PC is then no longer part of the critical path when away from the office, so if the local PC crashed or lost internet, then it would not affect mail delivery to the single exchange
mailbox, for access via the web or mobile devices. Quite important. A common failure we have on local outlook pop3 connections is a single password failure to login, leaves the pop up menu on screen and then stops all other pop3 mail collection from working.
We have tried for 2+ years to solve this "password failure popup", but as the passwords are saved and don't change and the problem persists, we wanted to move to the cloud ... and avoid problems when users are away.
Last but not least, if using the cloud to send a reply to a mail via a connected account, the email is not sent as the connected account (despite it being validated for send as) but sent using a "<exchange Primary email> send on behalf of <pop3
connected email>" which defeats to whole point of connecting the accounts and verifying them!
I've got to say when even Google can get this right! why can't Microsoft? It really does suck!
For a business class product having 1 signature per user within OWA is seriously deficient.
Maybe time to move our email needs to Google, as on searching the depths of old archives it does appear these issues have been raised for several years, yet nothing has improved ... shame on Microsoft.

I have implemented the DummySSLSocketFactory stuff for handling unsinged certs on POP3s ser vers and it works fine, However is I connect to one of these servers before connecting to an IMAPs server I get the following error:

     // the line below is for java 1.5
     java.security.Security.setProperty("ssl.SocketFactory.provider","com.cc.util.controller.email.DummySSLSocketFactory");
     // these are for java 1.4
    props.setProperty("mail.pop3s.socketFactory.class","com.cc.util.controller.email.DummySSLSocketFactory");
    props.setProperty("mail.pop3s.socketFactory.fallback", "false");which I do before connecting to the POP3s service. In this case the connection being made to POP3s comes from a different thread than the connection to the IMAPs. Everything is in a single jar and this is an applet. I'm confused as to why it can't find the class after it has already found it. I mean at the root the threads should all have the same class loader shouldn't they?

If I remove the socket factory code everything works but then I can't to a server with a self signed certificate. So I tried this for imaps:
// the line below is for java 1.5
java.security.Security.setProperty("ssl.SocketFactory.provider","javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory");
// these are for java 1.4
   props.setProperty("mail.imaps.socketFactory.class","javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory");
   props.setProperty("mail.imaps.socketFactory.fallback", "false");but that gives me this error:

How can I get my phone to set up a POP3 account instead of IMAP?

I use a premium Mail.com e-mail account and on my old 3GS, I had it set up as a POP3 account instead of IMAP. There used to be an option at the top when creating an e-mail account to choose POP or IMAP but this option is no longer present in the 4S.
I follow the same process as on the 3GS - choose 'Other' when adding a mail account and I then enter all the details. It was this screen on the 3GS that allowed me to choose the type, but not anymore. I then click 'Next' and the phone automatically configures my account and sets it up as IMAP. After the account has been set up, there doesn't seem to be a way to change it to a POP3 account, I have also tried that as well.
Having an IMAP account is a real pain because, even though I choose to save Drafts, Sent Messages and Deleted Items on the server, my iPhone still insists on creating new folders for these so I have multiple folders on my iPhone and then I end up with multiple folders on my web server as well, which looks a mess when I log in. I usually end up deleting these folders.
Does anyone know how I can make my iPhone set up a POP3 account instead of an IMAP? I cannot see why this should not be possible on a phone that claims to be as advanced as the 4S does...

Hotmail opens in a new window because the code or set of instructions on the MSN website tells Firefox to open Hotmail in a new window. I would suggest you right click on the Hotmail button and left click on "Open Link in New Tab". This will open a new tab in the current window.

I cannot get email set up correctly on my 4s using a Pop3 account and a BTConnect email address. How do I do it please?

Hi,
I have an iphone 4S and am trying to set up mail so that I can send and receive relating to our home email account which is unfortunately a "btconnect" address and a POP3 account.
How do I do it please?
BT seem unable to supply IMAP settings.
Do I need to do something with a Gmail account?
Thanks in advance.

Have a look at this guide .If you are setting up a POP3 account Imap is a totally different methodology and irrelevant .

Can't configure POP3 account

I just got my new iPad and I can't seem to get my standard POP3 email account configured. I have it configured no problem on my iPhone. I need to be able to specify port 2525 to my POP3/SMTP server and there doesn't seem to be a place to specify it. I tried appending :2525 to my server name, and no dice. The configuration also wants to use SSL all the time. I've tried configuring this everywhichway and it comes back that it "can't connect using SSL".
Is anyone else trying having problems configuring email on iPad to a plain vanilla POP3/SMTP server?
Thanks.

Well, I hacked at a bit and figured it out. Apple has a bit of work to do on the interface for configuring basic POP3 accounts on the iPad.
After letting it fail to connect/configure, I blew through the interface until I got to the point where I could save the account information that I entered. Then I was able to diddle with each of the account settings - including the outbound port - via the Advanced tab (very much like the iPhone interface for email accounts) and all is well.
So the trick here is to let it fail to connect using SSL at each stage, which is time consuming, and then save the account information. From there, the interface will resemble that of the iPhone and will look familiar. Then you make some advanced settings and it will work just fine.
Enjoy!
