Having trouble setting up my Verizon/Yahoo email account on my LG Ally

I am both a Verizon Wireless and Verizon FIOS customer. I have an email account through my FIOS which is Verizon/Yahoo account, and has a @verizon.net address. How do I set up this type of email account? The only option my phone offers is through corporate (it's not a corporate account), so I tried using that option. When I entered in the requested data, I get an error message that tells me I am not using the correct server info. Am I doing this right? Can someone please provide the correct server info for a Verizon/Yahoo FIOS account? 
Thank you.

I don't remember if you have to turn on the mail forwarding option from the options section on the web first or not, like Gmail. You may have to set it up manually.
# Under User Information, do the following:
   1. In the Your Name box, type your full name the way you want it to appear to other people.
   2. In the E-mail Address box, type your e-mail user name followed by @verizon.net.
# Under Server Information, do the following:
   1. In the Incoming mail server (POP3) box, type incoming.verizon.net.
   2. In the Outgoing mail server (SMTP) box, type outgoing.verizon.net.
# Under Logon Information, do the following:
   1. In the User Name box, type your user name provided by Verizon Online.
   2. In the Password box, type your password.
   3. Select the Remember password check box.

  • Having trouble setting up my website's email account on my iPhone 3G

    Hey, I'm trying to set up my iPhone 3G to receive emails from my website's MailEnable WebMail inbox and I'm having some trouble.
    I don't know what my Outgoing Mail Server Host Name (smtp) is. My website help section advises they don't have an outgoing smtp server and that my broadband supplier can help.
    Can anyone assist? Thanks Pt

    If your mail account provider doesn't have an SMTP server, then you can use the one from your ISP's email account if you're on your home network, or you can use your cell carrier's server settings when you're on 3G/EDGE. Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > the account > SMTP will have settings for Other SMTP servers; if your carrier's is there, toggle it ON.

  • Is it possible to switch from Verizon Yahoo email account to a basic Verizon.ne​t account?

    I have a Verizon Yahoo email account, and have not used it in a while. I recently started using it and realized that I hate the Yahoo portal (garish ads, cluttered interface, etc.).  Does any one know if it is possible to switch to a basic Verizon account. At this point I don't care if it is the classic Webmail or the new Message Center.

    Yes.  I did just that a few months back.     You can't do it thru the self-service portal however.
    While I don't know if there are different requirements in different states or service areas which may affect who can switch, etc., what I did was use the tech support chat and explained to them that I didn't want the "Yahoo" experience any longer.   Explained I was trying to switch to AOL just to get away from Yahoo but that it wasn't working thru the portal -- but once we started chatting I told them that I really didn't want AOL either -- just wanted the Verizon branded basic experience not a partner one.  Took them about 15 minutes and the first line person had to involve and engineer behind the scenes to make the change, but they got it done without skipping a beat.
    If you use a client other than the web client to get your email (like Outlook or Thunderbird or on a mobile device), you will have to reconfigure their POP and SMTP settings afterwards.

  • Android Phone and Verizon-Yahoo Email account

    I've had my Verizon-Yahoo email account as my default email on my Android phone for nearly
    2 years. Suddenly, it does not sync with my actual email anymore and I cannot retrieve newly
    sent email to me.
    What happened?
    I deleted my Verizon-Yahoo email account thinking I could readd it without issue and now it
    won't add it. So, I am without my regular, most used email address on my mobile phone.
    How do I fix this problem step by step and what happened in the first place.
    If I canot retrieve my email there is no need for data. I need it for college classes and work,
    as well as other business uses.
    Can someone help me?
    In addition, I have been receiving ALOT of SPAM on my regular Verizon-Yahoo email over the
    past 6-12 months and I don't understand why. How do I fix that. I keep sending these adult ads
    and other SPAM to the SPAM folders but it keeps coming back!! Is someone signing me up
    for this stuff and how do i stop t from happening?
    Thank you for your assistance in advance.
    Blue.

    Hi:
    I experience the same problem when I downloaded systems updates on my Android Bionic phone, I was not able to sync my Verizon Yahoo email account.  I went through the same steps and nothing worked, until one savvy Verizon Wireless IT support agent told me to download the Yahoo Mail App on to my phone and that solved my problem instantly.  I logged in using my Verizon.net username and password and have been able to access my email with no problems ever since and have also updated my Yahoo Mail App and all works beautifully.

  • I can't set up one particular Yahoo email account but other Yahoo email accounts work fine.

    When I try to add one of my Yahoo email accounts to my iPhone it says "Server Unavailable Please try again later".  But I am able to log in to this Yahoo email account successfully from my iMac via Safari and I am also able to add other Yahoo email accounts to the iPhone.  It's an iPhone 4 that was just migrated from iPhone 3GS.  I've tried both on an iPhone 4 and 4S. It worked fine on the previous iPhone 3GS.
    Please help!

    Choose a slighly different name for the "Name" field, and try to add your Email and Password again.

  • Having trouble setting up Mail with a POP account

    I am trying to set up Mail with my Universities webmail service, and according to their tech page I need to set it to POP. I also made sure that I have the incoming and outgoing mail servers correct, and i've made certain that I am entering my username and password correctly. But when it loads and trys to get my mail it says that the password I supplied is incorrect, but I know that's not true. I am absolutley sure that both the username and password are entered correctly.
    Does anybody know how I might fix this?
    p.s. my girlfriend is having the exact same problem, so it isn't just me entering something wrong

    I know you said the usernames/passwords are correct but, (if you can), login via webmail using those same strings, see if that works.
    Write the text to a note and copy and paste from there so you are sure you've not input something wrongly.
    Failing that do a quick keychain first aid too.
    If that don't work then I'm out of ideas, (for now at least).

  • Mail.app and Verizon / Yahoo email account setup

    I've searched and searched on here and still can't find a proper (or updated) answer to the question. (Newest answers I found were for 10.4.4 involving keychain access-which I tried...)
    Why won't my @verizon.net account work with Mail.app?
    I can login using verizon's online mail, but can't use the verizon-supplied settings to receive the mail through mail.app.
    incoming.yahoo.verizon.net
    outgoing.yahoo.verizon.net
    Couldn't find what port settings to use...

    I think I might have found a solution. For some reason, it appears the outgoing mail server doesn't like to have the same login as the DSL setup account. I switched my outgoing account to a secondary account (my setup account is jsichol, but I used joesichol as my outgoing.)
    (It is working as of now, but I've seen others on here who got it to work for a couple of days before it crapped out.)
    I am actually using the verizon account linked with a yahoo account, so my ingoing and outgoing accounts are *coming.yahoo.verizon.net.
    I really hope this works and that others find this thread useful.
    I'm on Verizon DSL, in Richmond, Virginia.

  • I'm having trouble setting up email on my new Lucid

    I'm having trouble setting up 2 of my email accounts on my new Lucid phone for some reason. I go through the setup wizard process, but the phone can't connect with either my Hotmail or my Yahoomail accounts, and I get the message "Getting Token failed". What does this mean, and what can I do to correct this? Does the phone have to be in 4G to connect to email accounts?

        Mam129, I rely on email to stay connected with family and friends so I know how important it is to be able view them on my phone. But don’t worry because I’m here to help.
    Are you still unable to set up your email? A fix for the issue has recently been implemented. Please try setting up the email again and keep me posted if you have any issues.

  • Cannot attach files to Yahoo email account since new Safari installed

    Hello. I don’t know why, but since I installed the new Safari update, I’ve been having trouble attaching files to my Yahoo email account. The entire Safari just sort of freezes. I can’t even click on anything.
    Another minor but irritating problem since the installment: sometime video clips cannot be played (like on Youtube). I would have to quit and reopen to get to usual condition.
    Anyone know how to solve these problems? Thanks!

    HI,
    The problem is BrowserPlus. It's not compatible with Safari 5.
    Instructions for uninstalling BrowserPlus here. http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/browserplus/uninstall.html
    If you don't want to do that, you revert to the previous version of Safari, instructions here.

    Then update to Safari 5 at a later date.

  • Error message setting up Yahoo email account...help!

    I just got my new Droid Razr yesterday, and I have tried numerous times to set up my existing Yahoo email account but I keep getting an error message that states "System is unavailable to support the request". My email address and password are correct, I am able to log in just fine on my computer, so I can't figure out what the problem is or how to fix it. Any help would be appreciated!

    Try this under the settings:
    Yahoo Ymail: IMAP
    Incoming Settings:
    Username: [email protected]
    Password: (check the case for your password)
    IMAP server: imap.mail.yahoo.com
    Port: 143
    Security type: TLS if available
    IMAP path prefix: (leave blank, it should read "Optional"
    Outgoing Settings:
    SMTP server: smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com
    Port: 25
    Security type: TLS if available
    Require sign-in: Checked
    Username: [email protected])
    Password: (check the case for your password)
    If that does not work, I would use the app available in the Play Store as stated above.

  • Setting up a Bell busines email account problem

    Hello,
    I am having trouble setting up my Bell business email on my Playbook. I have the lastest software downloaded on
    my Playbook. Version 2.0.1.358.
    I contacted Bell support to get all the correct settings for the business email address. POP, SMTP, ports, etc....
    I tried them on my playbook and it does not work.
    I know my Bell email address and password are valid because I can logon thru my laptop.
    I have blackberry bridge setup on my playbook. My cell phone provider is Telus, but my business email is thru
    Bell. Can that have something to do with it? Do I have to turn off the bridge to get it to work? Because of the bridge,
    do I have to enter Telus email settings? I'm not sure what to do.
    Can anyone help me?
    Thanks
    Terry Hoelscher

    When you keep saying "business email" is there any chance this email account is an enterprise BES hosted account?
    Otherwise, if you have this account already on your BlackBerry handheld device, using the Bridge, you should see that account IN the Bridge messages folder.
    So, for now, answer the first question.

  • Help with yahoo email account

    Can't seem to set up my kids yahoo email accounts on their new iPad minis. Keep getting a message saying they can't access the yahoo server. Addresses and passwords are correct. No verification emails show up either.

    thanks carolyn.
    followed your instructions ok, but at end of restoring got an error message. now the ipad is frozen on the screen with the apple and the 'search' icon constantly turning.  i've shut down my mac desktop and upon trying to reconnect i am getting an 'unknowno error message (0xE8000065)
    My iMac desktop and ipad2 is very new and I'm still getting used to apple in general, so hopefully other users may help me from experience as right now i'm lost.

    I have an email account through yahoo. I am having trouble setting it upon my iPhone and can't receive or send emails!!!! I contacted Rogers and they said I need to find out the host name of the incoming server, in other words yahoos host name. Help!!

    Yahoo's servers are notoriously unreliable. Use the "Yahoo" account type when setting it up. If it doesn't work, and you are positive the credentials are correct, wait a while and try again.
    While you're waiting, set up a free gmail or iCloud email account.

  • Having trouble setting up email accounts in the mail app?

    Hi Apple community,
         I am having trouble setting up my email accounts with the osX mail application. I have two accounts, an outlook and my college email through google. When I try to add the outlook account the prompt says that it cannot connect to the server and when I try my college mail i get the following prompt.
    "Trying to log in to the Exchange server “autodiscover-s.outlook.com” failed. Make sure the email address and password you entered are correct, then click Continue."
    Please note that my college account is run by gmail and ends in murraystate.edu
    Thanks, Will.

    Hey will,
    okay for your college email. Heres what you do.
    Try adding your email and wait for the message to come up
    Trying to log in to the Exchange server “autodiscover-s.outlook.com” failed. Make sure the email address and password you entered are correct, then click Continue."
    Once it does, you will notice 2 extra boxes One says username and the other password. You will notice that the username will not have @murraystate.edu
    Add this and continue and this should now be added as an email account and should be able to receive emails as normal.
    For your outlook emails, I would recommend using the following article to set it up. It is fairly straightforward.
