Gmail on blackberry classic - server can't be reached

I own a blackberry classic. I kept getting told that gmail could not verify my account settings and I was advised to delete my email set up that was previously working well. deleting my set up did not help and now I can't set up my account at all. I keep getting the same message: At this time your email account can't be added. please try again later. OR The server for account Imap EmailL Gmail - [smtp.gmail.com, port: 465] can't be reached. the settings might be incorrect or the server could be temporarily offline. Check your settings and try again. This is frustrating to no end! anyone have any idea how to fix this??

I imagine a ton of people are attempting to activate after the update, and the server is getting overloaded. Simple patience, maybe keep trying, and if possible, try a little later. Think of it as all those people lining up at Apple Stores + about a million more.

Why is my phone not activating the new 7 software on an iphone 4s.
Here is part of the message I have beengetting...
Activation server can not be reached while updating my iPhone software.

Restart the iPhone.
Try another means of reaching the activation server and attempt to activate.
Try connecting to a known-good Wi-Fi network if you're unable to activate using a cellular data connection.
Try connecting to iTunes if you're unable to activate using Wi-Fi.
Restore the iPhone.
If you receive an alert message when you attempt to activate your iPhone, try to place the iPhone in recovery mode and perform a restore. If you're still unable to complete the setup assistant due to an activation error, contact Apple for assistance.

Just have to give it some time. The activation and verification servers are all slammed right now 'cause of all the people trying to update at the same time. Give it a couple hours (or overnight if you can wait) and it should sort itself out.

Hi kamlesh.bisht,
It sounds like you may be having activation issues with your iPad. You may find the following article useful; it is aimed at the iPhone, but should also cover similar issues on the iPad:

Blackberry Classic email font size??

I just got my new Blackberry Classic and can't find any way to increase the size of my emails permanently!! I can barely read my emails becuase the font size is incredibly small!! I can adjust the size by zooming on the screen, but as soon as I open another email, the size resets back to be tiny.
I was waiting to get the Classic since it was first announced last July!! but now I'm very close to completely ditching Blackberry and moving to Android!! HELP!! If the default Email app can't do it, is there another Emaill App that can?

Hi cturco,
You can adjust the font size in Settings/Display/Font Size. But that adjusts the font size for everything, not just the e-mails. If you can 'barely read' your e-mails chances are you will find adjusting the font size for everything helpful?
Separately, you can adjust the font size when composing an outgoing e-mail by tapping on Format and then Aa. You then have an option to choose Smaller, Normal or Larger.
Hope that helps? Good luck!

I am having trouble sending bulk emails (less than 100 at a time) on my gmail account using group names created from my address book. I use Mail on my I-Mac. When I try to send out a bulk email, the message shows up that my server can't send them, etc.

I am having trouble sending bulk emails from a Mail Group (less than 100 at a time) on my gmail account. They come back saying the server can't recognize the data and try again with selected server or try later or edit message, all of which I have attempted a number of times, including re-booting the computer. I am wondering if there is something wrong in my Address Book? I have check Apple Preferences, and Mail Preferences and all seems in order. I can send to any of the individual addresses, but not in a group.
Thanks for your help.

Install ClamXav and run a scan with that. It should pick up any trojans.
