N8 - E-Mail/Imap Setup Impossible

Ok, I give up. I've been trying to set up Imap (or any Mail account in general) on my N8 for over a week now and it just seems impossible to do.
I go to Programs > Mail > New, then click "Start" on the info text screen and get a message saying that a Nokia Messaging Subscription is required and that I should contact my carrier (whatever that means and for what ever reason this is necessary). Then I enter my email address and password and then the only option I get is "Mail for exchange".
I've tried the following things -- all with no luck:
Entered real email address and password
Entered bogus address and password to get to manual settings
Finished the "Mail for Exchange" wizard with bogus data (cannot get to manual settings after that)
Reset the phone
Entered a SIM card from a different carrier
I've searched this forum, tried everything and now I'm out of ideas and I get the feeling that this either a serious bug and/or this process is somehow carrier dependend (and if so, why?!) and none the ones I've tried is supported.
Help greatly appreciated!
Solved!

  • Mac Mail - IMAP setup - Large attachments are corrupt

    Mac Mail - IMAP setup - Large attachments are corrupt
    Attachments open fine in webmail
    Mailbox rebuild does not help
    Appears files over 500k are affected
    Multiple users affected
    Backend is GroupWise 7
    So, I see several posts on this topic, with no solutions.... Is this a known issue according to Apple? If so, can some point me to the official release notes/ bug report??

    I have the same problem. When I look at the message with Entourage, I found out that while under IMAP the attachment is not fully downloaded from the exchange server. Entourage gives you the choice to download this file. When I select, the file comes down and opens OK. I heard that some clients have a max size download setting for IMAP but Mac Mail does not. Anyone know how to get around this?

  • Mail IMAP Setup - Sent Syncing

    Hi,
    So I use IMAP to send/receive email on 3 devices, a MacPro a MacBookPro and my iPhone.   I want to have the emails sent from my iPhone show up on the mail clients on my other machines.  I know I can just set up the mailbox behaviours to store the sent emails on the server but one of my IMAP accounts has a maximum and those will fill up the server pretty quickly.
    I know I cam set the behaviours to delete the messages and keeping them there for a week would be more than enough time for them to migrate to the machines, but my concern is that I want to keep the sent messages on the desktop and laptop and not delete them.  
    Is that possible?
    Thanks!
    Matt

    Yes, I want to keep copies of the emails locally and my worry was that if I set up the behavior to delete the emails off the server after a certain amount of time that it would also delete them from my machines locally.
    Thanks for the help!

    I have trouble with sending e-mail and syncing e-mail. Try changing to 1 day sync under settings. It's sluggish but it works for me until they resolve the issue. MS claims all is normal. If you still have a problem you should report it here: https://status.live.com/report/hotmail

    hi..what settings work on iphone 4 - lineone mail server setup.. have tried Tiscali recommendations, which aren't biong picked up..nightmare..!
    Used Imap, Pop mail..!

    Thanks for the quick read and response. Do you feel the issue might lie with the fact that it is a Mac Mini? And possibly just not powerful enough to run Leopard Server? I have to say in our trials with MacPro it was like night and day as to how they performed. And if you could elaborate on this "Many VPNs don't play well with NAT so your VPN server should have a direct connection to the public network (preferably firewalled, of course, but not NATted)." Most every SoHo and for that matter uses simple NAT translation for security even our multi thousand dollar Cisco PIX and ASA's are basic NAT devices to start with. How would you put the VPN on public net while keeping the attack surface low for the rest of the services like file, web, mail and print?
    Don't get me wrong I want this to work more than you can imagine. We are so tired of supporting MSFT technologies that cost thousands a year in antivirus, antispyware, antispam and other malware protection for the enterprise. We know that Leopard has great potential but for an integrator, getting this system up and functional is not an easy task. And the worst part of it is every time we have called for support the tech always lets out a sigh when they hear we have run standard setup because they are not allowed to walk us thru the server console to make repairs. And have been told by 3 techs so far that this is a new product and the support avenues are not there for standard since it just supposed to work out of the box. But when it doesn't then ohh well. Which is sorta sad...

  • Sane virtual mail server setup?

    I'm giving up. I want a simple mail server setup (imaps, pop3s, smtps) with virtual user support that I can comfortably configure from the web (PostfixAdmin, web-cyradm, courier-web). I want to manage multiple users on multiple domains. It appears that the task I want to accomplish is insanely complex for some reason. I'd like to use as few different software packages as possible.
    I can't find a simple and sane tutorial on the topic and I don't even care what software is going to be used. Of course, I did search and play around with the config for hours but to no avail. The tutorials in the Arch wiki are no good either, they are either outdated or do not allow me to do web configuration.
    Help me out here, please.

    It's always good to have alternatives, but out of curiousity, did you not try the courier-mta wiki? I used that wiki guide recently and it had me running with a system like what you describe without too much fuss. The only stuff I haven't tried/used is web-based administration or mail access; perhaps this was the problem for you?

    I'm having similar problems... looking for an answer.

  • Mac Mail IMAP shows read message when already read from other devices

    Mac Mail IMAP is setup on custom domain ([email protected]).  When I open an email message through my iphone it shows it was read.  Then when I go into the mail app on my iMac, it shows the message is unread.  It still shows unread hours later and even when I click the "Get Mail" button
    How do I make it so that Mac mail syncs when I check mail through other devices?
    Thank you

    Open Terminal in Utilties and copy/paste
    This will send the attachment embedded inline. (This works in Snow Leopard, but not sure about Lion. Do a test first. If it doesn't work, just google "send attachment embedded + Lion." You don't actually have to send the message to see how it will appear.)
    defaults write com.apple.mail DisableInlineAttachmentViewing 0
    To reverse the setting, change the 0 to a 1
    However, whether this will work or not will depend on what the e-mail client on the receiver's end does with it.

  • Mail server setup problems

    we are in the process of setting up a SL mail server and have pretty much everything running nicely, except mail.
    our setup is as follows:
    • previous email provider mx records are still active but have allocated higher priority to new server's mx record and according to the ISP those changes have since propagated;
    • billion router as dhcp server for a shared studio space/network (same subnet for a variety of parties - we know not good, but since we need to share printers, etc. the only easy way to do so!), allocating a static IP to our new server with all necessary ports forwarded as well;
    • DNS configured and running, does reverse lookups and added mail.example.com as A record;
    • webmail works, i.e. we can login with a test users credentials;
    we experience 2 problems:
    1. incoming emails to an activated account get rejected with a 550 error message, still indicating our previous mail providers nameservers;
    2. currently only SMTP seems to be working, i.e. we can send emails from external clients but strangely not from the server itself using mail.example.com (it does work using the servers internal IP address though);
    3. if we telnet into mail.example.com from outside the studio we get connected, but internally again this only works with the IP address;
    as we have trawled the net for some clues and unsuccessfully tried various things, we are beginning to wonder if something on the router is interfering.
    any help or thoughts much appreciated.
    ds.

    If you can't access your server using the domain name mail.example.com it sound to me like you have a dns problem.
    When you ping your server's mail.example.com from your internal network what ip are you getting?
    Are you getting a your server's internal ip or external ip?

  • Mail Server setup - EM 10.2.0.1.0

    On Mail Server setup (EM 10.2.0.1.0) doesn't exists the options to set the User Name and Password, for authentication.
    How do I configure a user authentication for the SMTP server?

    You have to provide valid values for only the follwing two fields:
    1 Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server
    2 and Sender's E-mail Address
    Optionally you cand enter something in the Identify Sender As that will be used in the email body as an alias for the email address.
    It should work. I tested this a few moments earlier.

  • Java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: com.sun.mail.imap.IMAPStore.

    All:
    I have completed the following:
    1. Downloaded the JavaMail 1.4.2 API.
    2. From this downloaded API I had extracted the mail.jar file (timestamp 2009-02-26 13:28) to my C:\Program Files\Tomcat 6.0\lib directory
    3. Downloaded the jaf-1_0_2-upd2 API
    4. From this downloaded API I had extracted the activation.jar file (timestamped 2005-05-07 21:14) also to my C:\Program Files\Tomcat 6.0\lib directory.
    In Eclipse I have created a simple JSP page that calls a POJO that is to read a particular email box using IMAP. In this POJO I have code to set up the Properties, Session and Store objects as such:
    Line 1 Properties properties = System.getProperties();
    Line 2 properties.put("mail.from", "[email protected]");
    Line 3 properties.put("mail.debug","true");
    Line 4 session = Session.getDefaultInstance(properties, null);
    Line 5 session.setDebug(debug);
    Line 6 printData("About to get store object...");
    Line 7 store = session.getStore("imap");
    In eclispe, I click "Debug on Server" and Tomcat starts, begins to display my JSP and then I am dropped on the line of code in my POJO where I set a breakpoint (Line 1). Now I single step through the code. The code throws the following execption when it executes line 7 of the above code :

    There are no jar files defined in my project's classpath. The only jar file found in the project is in the WEB-INF\lib folder wherein I have a jndi.jar (timstamp 5/5/2009 8:10AM) file.
    I put the activation.jar file and the mail.jar file in my Tomcat.6\lib folder according item 4 of the JavaMail Sessions section of the Apache Tomcat JNDI Resources HOW_TO found here: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/jndi-resources-howto.html
    Can anybody please tell me what I need to do to get around this error? Do I perhaps have the wrong versions of one or more jar files?
    FYI: I have also put these same two jar files in my projects classpath and still recevied the same exception. Because I am invoking a POJO from a JSP should these jar files be in my projects classpath in addition to the tomcat\lib directory, or should they only be in the projects' classpath?
    Thanks to all for your time in responding.
    Gary

    bshannon:
    Thank you for your resonse. Your response got me to thinking that my instance of Ecliplse that I had had running yesterday was behaving a little strangely so this morning I closed everything I had running on my workstation and closed down the machine and rebooted. When I finally opend up Eclipse again and ran my JSP program calling my POJO, the code no longer threw the exception. Apparently Eclipse can have its tempermental moments.
    Also, let it be known that while everything is working for me now, I performed a small experiment. I moved the activiation.jar and mail.jar from my project\WEB-INF\lib folder and put them in the the C:\Program Files\Tomcat 6.0\lib directory. Then, when I ran my program I once again recieved the java.lang.NoSuchMethodException error. When I moved these jar files back from the Tomcat diretory to my project\WEB-INF\lib directory, the program worked just fine.
    Thanks again

  • Mail - IMAP folders not showing up in folder list

    I have several mac mail imap folders and a few of them are not showing all imap folder - yet I can use move to folder to move emails to that folder.  Any ideas?

    Check on the IMAP settings (Gmail.com) that Pop is disabled.
    It should be in the IMAP/Mail forwarding section.
    When it is enabled, folders do not show up in mac mail

  • Mail service setup basics

    Dude!,
    I have been searching and digging for days trying to understand this setup.
    I purchased a mac mini with server software and trying to get mail services to work.
    It should not be this hard! I have set up my dns for my local domain and doubled checked via terminal that my ip matches the name. I have mutiple doamins I would like to revcieve mail from on this server. All my users are the same on each domain. like, [email protected] and [email protected], ect.
    In the general tab of mail services I set the following
    domain name : mydomain.com
    host name : mail.mydomain.com
    in the advanced tab I checked include server daomain as local alias and added my other domain names like
    myother.com
    myother2.com
    I then went to my mail client that I added the local email info,,
    What should I use for the incoming mail?
    Outgoing mail?
    I have looked at mail services user guide, searched through tons of threads, googled everthing from smtp, dns, mail server setup, ect.
    I am able however to manually set up a mail client and all works but that kinda defeats my reasoning of this server.
    Is there a basic guide I can get that maybe clairifies the basic set issues?
    I am sure I am not the only person having these issues?
    Thanks

    It should be this hard. It's actually quite simple once you take the time to ensure you have a fundamental understanding of numerous key concepts. Marketing for 10.6 server aside (a separate & interesting conversation), it's no more Apple's role to educate any would-be server administrator of these fundamentals than it is for Microsoft to do same with their product manuals, or for that matter Sun (Solaris) or RedHat...

  • Disable/Bypass the "Mail Account Setup" wizard

    How can I disable or bypass the "Mail Account Setup" wizard and just create a new account in the "Account Settings" panel? The "Mail Account Setup" wizard won't let me get that far without jumping through all its unhelpful hoops, and I don't know to disable or bypass it.

    "I have been having people with almost the same question for years"
    Then obviously there's a need for it to actually be addressed. Right?
    I (and apperently many other people as well) have a set of connection settings, all we want to do is enter them, but TBird keep trying to force us into handholding mode, autodetecting, etc. The thing won't even LET you enter the settings without forcing it's own autodetection routines first. And why force *everyone* (not just average Joes) to use a completely *separate* settings panel for new accounts when you ALREADY have an account settings panel? A panel which, I might add, is FAR more useful than the redundant "new account" one because it exposes all the account settings, not just a small subset.
    Is it really that hard to let us non-dummies actually *just enter their settings*??? Especially when you fully admit you get a lot of people asking to *do just that*?
    Why try to force "the Mozilla way" on all your users when Mozilla makes such enormous claims about supposedly beleiving so heavily in customization and personalization?
    Frankly, you really don't have to userstand it at all. Obviously there *is* a need for it, otherwise you wouldn't be "having people with almost the same question for years". Doesn't that tell you something?

Maybe you are looking for
