I, too use roadrunner and found this answer when I Googled for it yesterday. I have had limited success, but plan on contacting AT&T as they helped me configure my Cingular 8525 when the "typical" settings were of no use. Link:

"How to setup my email in iphone? I'm using [email protected]
Incoming server
Pop-server.NYC.RR.com
Outgoing server
Cwmx.com
No username
No password
Unfortunately tWC is quite adimant about not allowing outgoing mail from off the Roadrunner network. So you cannot use the same settings as you would at home…
(for those following, that would be SMTP.NYC.RR.com)
Also unfortunately, ATT will not allow anyone to use the CWMX.com server off the EDGE network.
What does this mean? You should use the cwmx.com server as much as possible, but it means that if you are off the edge network (on wifi) at that exact moment, your mail will not go out. Once you get off wifi (manually, or leave the range of the hotspot) your mail will send out.
Another way to do this would be to forward your email to Google.com. Google’s interface is free, connects just fine, and will hold EVERY email there until you delete it. So you could forward your email to the gmail server, checking the setting to leave copy of mail in your roadrunner account. This will send a copy of the mail to Google while leaving a copy at home.
Set up your iphone to it the gmail server (it has preset settings in the mail setup)."

  • Iphone and road runner email

    Has anyone had any luck placing road runner (time warner email) on their iphone. Both Apple and Road Runner tried but to no avail. Weird thing, I have had 3 previous iphones and have had rr on there every time.

    I have three roadrunner mailboxes. One has transferred ok from my iphone 3G through iTunes. The other two reject their passwords. I do not understand what's going on. I have tried deleting the other two from iPhone and adding them directly on iPhone 4 but they still reject their passwords. Any help would be very appreciated.

  • IPHONE 3G and Road Runner accounts

    Hello all,
    Finally got my IPHONE 3G and everything is wonderful except for the Roadrunner email setup..
    Like the last IPHONE I followed all of the instructions but still no happy. Noticed that in the basic setup it adds the CWMX.COM to the outgoing SMTP configuration but that’s not the real issue at this point. The problem is that IPHONE acts like its pulling or fetching the mail but nothing shows up. I have tried several combinations but I do not take an error it just does not get the mail.
    Any ideas would be great.. Thanks

    I spent a lot of time trying different combinations of settings, and finally found something that works. Try this:
    1. Create new outgoing mail server for the rr email account: smtp-server.hawaii.rr.com (substute your location for hawaii)
    2. Within the settings for smtp-server.hawaii.rr.com:
    a. turn off the SSL
    b. username needs to have the @hawaii.rr.com (the outgoing smtp it needs to have the "@hawaii.rr.com", but not on the incoming POP area. I don't know why, but I tried it and it works!)
    c. enter password
    Please let me know if this worked for you. Good luck!
    My experience has been that you can only send via smtp-server.blah.rr.com if you are connected into the RoadRunner network (e.g., at home connected via your own wi-fi). Sending on EDGE or 3G is not likely to work unless you use CWMX.com or AuthSTMP, some smtp which is not part of the RoadRunner network.
    Not unique with the iPhone. True for laptops when traveling, too.

  • Mail and road runner account: Help!

    I hate to write this, since I have been through all the threads and nothing has worked. My G4 is in the shop and I am trying to configure mail to work on my G5. I have all the settings correct, but I cant send mail. I have tried changing the port numbers and adding the user name on the back of the SMPT protocol. A lot of the threads talk about att and Iphone, but I don't have an i phone.
    TWC doesn't have a clue and I spent a 1/2 hour with an apple specialist online and they couldn't help, but apple hooked it up fine on my G4 two years ago. I tried to copy everything over verbatim,when creating a pop account on my G5 Imail, but it didn't work
    Anyway, here are on protocols.
    POP incoming
    mail-server.carolina.rr.com
    username
    password
    outgoing
    smtp-server.carolina.rr.com
    username
    password
    Do I have to adjust a port number or add a port number on the end of the smtp. I can't get anything to work or get any help. Again sorry to ask a redundant question, but all the threads involve Iphone.
    Thanks,

    TWC has that issue per your last line. One thing I did was copy everything from my G4 in case apple lost my data. I have everything from my mail folder. Can I do an import like bookmarks? I will try your recipe and see what happens.
    This has been so long, but apple had to put a : colon on the end of smtp-server.carolina.rr.com and I want to say it was my username, but other threads have said to put a server port 587 on the back of the outgoing. It is really confusing that apple didn't know how to do this when I called support yesterday.
    Now I am hooked up to the airport express via a apple wireless card, but that shouldn't make a difference

  • Has anyone had problems sending emails using via (Road Runner) POP account?

    I cannot send any emails w/ the iPhone via Road Runner POP account.... I have tried everything. From Calling Time Warner to have my Password reset just incase I'm using the incorrect password, which in fact the settings menu for mail says the password for outgoing emails are optional.. I keep getting a message saying "my email was rejected by the server" Is anyone having this problem and if so please suggest any solutions.......
    Does anyone know how to set my mail app on my home computer to only forward the messages I want to my iPhone while moving all other junk emails to my Junk folder on my computer????

    Last I checked you could not access RoadRunner outgoing mail servers from outside of the RoadRunner network (i.e., the AT&T EDGE network). You can use cwmx.com as your outgoing mail server, with no ID or password, and that will work while you are on EDGE (but now when you are on WiFi).
    As for junk mail, that is the scourge of the internet. Many people have many solutions - I can share with you mine. I had all my email forwarded to a free GMail account. GMail has amazingly efficient SPAM filters, and it has cut down my spam 99%. You can configure your account on the iPhone using the "Other" shortuct in such a way that emails seem to come from your Roadrunner account. The added bonus is that the GMail outgoing server works on both EDGE and WiFi, so you dont have to worry about where you are at.

  • Road Runner settings and iphone

    Even since I upgraded my iphone to 2.0 I am not able to receive incoming mail on my road runner account. I am able to send mail. Does anyone have a suggestion about how I should set my incoming server?

    You've been given a lot of bad/false information from a number of sources. You can't sync mail boxes YOU create on your computer to your phone...this is a limit of how mail works. The ONLY mail boxes you can sync to your phone or devices are mail boxes you create on the mail server. However, this requires an Exchange or IMAP account, as such is not possible with a POP account. Again, this is a limit of the way POP accounts work.

  • Verizon wireless iPhone 4 / can receive email cannot send on Road Runner

    Help! I just got my new iPhone from Verizon Wireless today and the consultant set up my email for me. I can receive emails from Road Runner, but I cannot send them. I have tried every setting on the Internet that I can find, but none of them work in order for me to receive email. I got this phone so I could send and receive email...I have read that a lot of people who have Road Runner email have the same problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I am not a techy, but I am usually able to describe to the support people the exact conditions under which errors occur. Why this issue that we are both having, as common as it is (do a search and you will see it everywhere), is not common knowledge is beyond me.
    To review my situation: If I was hooked to a Wi-Fi connection, I had no problem receiving or sending emails from my Time Warner account. Once I disabled the Wi-Fi switch on iPhone (as if I were out of range, traveling) and tried to send a message with my TW email account, I got the error message that it "could not identify" the server and then the email would go to my outbox.
    I think I have found the answer after about an hour on the phone: a call to Time Warner who eventually urged me to call Verizon about outgoing server settings, a call to Verizon who told me that the problem was with TW and their settings, a call again to Time Warner, and finally I received a call from Verizon tech support to make sure I got my answer from Time Warner! The short answer is: Time Warner has an issue/limitation (Perhaps with the 3G network?)
    *The second call to TW revealed what Verizon support suspected....YOU NEED TO BE ON A WI-FI TO SEND EMAILS VIA TW. No problem ever receiving--just sending.* I hope this sheds some more light on your situation. Not a major deal for me, (I'll probably use a gmail account), but it is good to know WHY something does not work. All parties were helpful and patient at least.

  • Time Warner Road Runner and iCloud setup instructions

    I use Time Warner Road Runner for email on my MacBook Pro, my iPad, and my iPhone. I'm confused about how to set up syncing mail using iCloud and a .me mail address when my email has a road runner address.  Is there a good step by step instruction available? Do I have to change my .rr email address to one using .me?

    I have the same issue. I thouhgt my email would "sync" like my work Outlook emial account, but they do not. If you find a solution, please share!

    Try Mail->Window->Connection Doctor.  If there is a problem reported, try:
    Open Mail->Preferences and check your settings.
    If you still have a problem, Copy your settings (screen capture ⇧⌘4), delete account, and re-setup account

    This started about 3 days ago.  I could manually push email through in the last few days but can no longer.  I have deleted the account and re-entered the settings but I get a message that I cannot connect to the server.

  • Airport, Road Runner, and Mail

    Has anyone out there had problems with ABS, Road Runner, and Mail? I am trying to find out before I purchase. Thanks.

    This is not a handheld issue, but a palm issue.  I also just purchased a Palm Centro and I am having the same problem sending emails with roadrunner.  I did not have this issue with my Blackberry, nor did anyone in my company.  We have 30 days to test the Palm, and none of us have gotten a good answer yet!

  • Checked my TW Road Runner Down & Up speed and performing fine. FF is hanging, disconnecting, slow, etc... What to do ?

    Checked my Time Warner Road Runner Down & Up speed and performing fine. Fire Fox is hanging, disconnecting, slow, etc... What to do ?

    At this point I think you should get Applejack...
    http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15667/applejack
    After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
    applejack AUTO
    Then let it do all 6 of it's things.
    At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
    The 6 things it does are...
    Correct any Disk problems.
    Repair Permissions.
    Clear out Cache Files.
    Repair/check several plist files.
    Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
    Trash old Log files.
    First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files! :-)
    Disconnect the USB cable from any Uninterruptible Power Supply so the system doesn't shut down in the middle of the process.
    Then... Try putting these numbers in Network>TCP/IP>DNS Servers, for the Interface you connect with...
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    Then Apply. For 10.5/10.6 Network, highlight Interface>Advanced button>DNS tab>little + icon.
    DNS Servers are a bit like Phone books where you look up a name and it gives you the phone number, in our case, you put in apple.com and it comes back with 17.149.160.49 behind the scenes.  
    These Servers have been patched to guard against DNS poisoning, and are faster/more reliable than most ISP's DNS Servers.
    For 10.5/10.6 Network, highlight Interface>Advanced button>DNS tab>little + icon.

  • Does Time Capsule and Time Warner Cable Road Runner work together?

    I have Time Warner Cable Road Runner internet serve. I am currently using a Linksys WRT54G WiFi router to use my internet with my MacBook Pro. I am thinking about replacing my Linksys with a Time Capsule. Will the Time Capsule work with TWC Road Runner? I have looked all over with google and have not found an answer. I heard that you can't clone the MAC address of the Road Runner modem. To get my Linksys to work I had to clone the MAC address. Is this true?

    I use time warner road runner ripoff and also have it hooked to my vonage router,a linksys with 2 telephone ports and 4 additional ports one of which is given to the TC, another to slingback and another to xbox and finnally he network printer.
    The Linksys router , I believe is the main router and the TC is added on as a secondary router ad you choose this during set up, it can either be visible or invisible extending your present wireless setup.
    After much tinkering I managed to get it working on the network, the TC that is seen by both my MacPro's and my OQO UMPC that is running Vista. I also hooked the TC up to a USB hub, another linksys, and attached a 1.5 GB Maxtor external drive. I plan to add another so I will have a total of 4 GB of storage.
    The main problems I have encountered is my Mac pro seeing the configuration after going to sleep, seems to take a really long time and sometimes I have to restart the TC.
    So far all I can say is it IS NOT as easy as Apple would like us to think it is. A lot of tinkering, and you should have a tad of knowledge of what your doing or your going to screw it up. Patience helps as well.
    cheers.
