Netscape software with Verizon smtp???

When is Verizon going to unlock the smtp for Netscape Mail software? I've used NS for years, with a 20-year-old e-mail address, and now I have to d/l mail, go to webpage, then reply or send mail from the webpage, then go to Netscape software to save message on my harddrive. I need a good SMTP for Netscape Mail software.

>>cityslic: Windows 7 - Netscape Mail. Ever since Verizon changed the security ports, I have not been able to send mail using Netscape - using smtp.verizon.net and port 465. I can receive mail and download it with Netscape mail, but cannot send. My e-mail is through earthlink, formerly ix.netcom.com, which I have used for 20 years, and haven't been able to use Netscape to send mail since June 4, 1012.
It's been quite a while since I used Netscape for my email--I still have it on my old system but I can't check my Netscape settings for you because I've lent that system to a friend of mine but, if memory serves, the Netscape email setting are very similar to the settings in Thunderbird.
I don't know if the following link will help at all but I just laid out the Thunderbird settings in a reply to a query in another thread--page 2 of "Eudora & server changes". The link should take you to page 2 of the thread and scroll down and compare your Netscape setting values to the Thunderbird settings.
From my own experience, take a close look at the security settings which changed to SSL/TLS and Password (or Normal Password) because even though I'd changed the server names and ports, it wasn't until I also changed the security settings that thing began to work--I was working blind as I have never received an email from Verizon outlining the changes and was unaware of them until I had problems with sending mail from Eudora.
I miss Netscape...'-}}

Can't send mail with powerbook G4, mail.app, mac OS 10.5.8 and verizon smtp server.

We just made the switch to Verizon.
Setting up Mail.app with my relatively new MacBook Pro (and OS 10.8.4) was very smooth.
Not so with my wife's old PowerBook G4 running 10.5.8, which she inherited from my daughter.
It seems to set up fine, using the same settings for the servers as on the MBP (it has to be done manually), but it is unable to send mail (via the verizon smtp server). The Connection Doctor thing does not have any trouble finding the servers and connecting.
I get the "The sender address [email protected] was rejected by the server smtp.verizon.net." message.
These settings work when sending email from this verizon account from her iphone, or from my MBP.
I successfully set up my .me email account on the G4 and that was able to send mail.
Couldn't find anything online to shed light on this. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Your asking peers here.
You didn't say which settings you were trying to use. Lots of people are posting about switching over to the latest EMAIL settings which include pop.verizon.net and smtp.verizon.net as the servers. However it has invariably been a mistake they are making or a special requirement of there DEVICE such as a shutdown and restart.
You should take a look at http://verizon.com/emailsettings . There are both the manual settings and some automatic trouble shooters that may be able to setup your device.

"Bad Authentication" when pop or smtp with Verizon e-mail using Evolution

I'm using Evolution 3.2.3 as my e-mail client.
It's worked with literally every ISP and mail service other than Verizon.
I followed the instructions on the Verizon support e-mail client setup:
Incoming mail server (POP3): pop.verizon.net
Incoming Server Port Numbers: 995
Outgoing mail server (SMTP): smtp.verizon.net
Outgoing Server Port Numbers: 465 Why is this important?
Make sure SSL encryption is enabled for the incoming and outgoing mail server.
But if I try to receieve or send e-mail I always get a "Bad authentication response from server" error.
Has anyone ever got Evolution to work with Verizon?
I searched and it seemed to work up until the year 2013.

For the sake of example, we are going to pretend that we are setting up fictional account "[email protected]" and the password for logging into that account in webmail is "fakepassword" - Again, this is a fictitious account for the sake of an example.
The settings for using Verizon's servers would be:
Incoming Server: pop.verizon.net
Server Requires Authentication: Yes
Username: fakeacct
Password: fakepassword
Requires a Secure Connection (SSL): Yes
Port: 995
Outgoing Server: smtp.verizon.net
Server Requires Authentication: Yes (You can set it to use the same settings as incoming, or manually enter the username and password.)
Requires a Secure Connection (SSL): Yes
Port: 465
If you are given the option anywhere for Secure Password Authentication (SPA), set it to No, Normal, Plain, etc. - This can also be listed as "Authentication type" in some clients.
These settings should work unless you have a Verizon/Yahoo account, in which case the server names are: incoming.yahoo.verizon.net -and- outgoing.yahoo.verizon.net
If all of that is set up and it's still not working, your best bet is to provide a screenshot of your settings (with personal information blocked/removed) and any errors you are getting.

I have tried several times to update my iphone 4 with verizon but it will not update the new software

I have tried several times to install the updates to my iphone 4 with verizon but has been unsuccessful.

What happened when you tried?
Error message?
What did it say?

Progams that work with Alltel and Suddenlink are no longer working with VERIZON (IRC)

I have worked this issue TO DEATH already and am getting FED UP!
I have been polite and nice and called customer support to get very short and not very explicit answers to this issue.
Complaint #1: When I call technical support and ask questions more complicated than " How do I plug in my computer?" they inform they are transferring me to TECHNICAL support. Okay so who did I call in the first place if not tech support.
Problem: IRC ( Internet Relay Chat) Is one of the main things that I enjoy doing online. Some do games, some do work. I do it all through my little IRC program. When I was with Alltel and had my little blackberry pearl. I could even get onto irc just fine that way. Getting on via a cell phone is kind of a pain. Small keyboard and lots of typing isn't my idea of that relaxing but.. okay whatever at least I could get on. Since Alltel became Verizon I was told to upgrade my phone to the brand new Blackberry Curve. Well now IRC didn't work. I upgraded to the LG Vortex. Now it works on my phone. So I upgraded my wireless card too and IRC worked just fine for a long time. NOW we are back to the same old same old.
For those of you not familiar with the program just wiki it. I have been told by NUMEROUS customer support reps that this program is not being blocked so this is the list of things I went through to make sure it was indeed NOT me or my computer.
Step 1: System restored before most recent updates to the last date that it was working.
NO GO
Step 2: Disabled firewall and virus software temporarily and even turned down my security on my browser
NO GO
Step 3: Re updated my computer and updated my firmware on my MIFI2200 card.
No go
Step 4-7 Called customer Support
NOPE.
Still waiting. I am paying for a service that is not providing. My entire family was with Alltel and is now with Sprint. I just keep asking myself why am I still with Verizon when all we ever do is fight. I hate to admit it to the kids but I think it's time for a divorce from you if we can't get this issue resolved. Before upgrading to these devices I even asked store reps if irc programs would work and they assured me " OH YES! With these new upgrades things will be better than ever!"
I realize to some this seems like not a very big deal, but when I am paying for a service so that I can come home relax, maybe take a few art commisions while chatting on irc and all the sudden I either can't use it or can use it when I couldn't before it's amazingly frustrating. I have taken my computer over to other people's houses to see if turning my security all the way back up as well as my firewall made a difference, but on any provider OTHER than verizon I can connect just fine.
Tell me WHY Verizon. Tell me why you either can't fix this.. or won't fix this.
Security issues? That's my problem. If I want to connect to a DNS server based program that connects via different ports.. that should be MY decision. You should NOT get to make that choice for me.
It's amazing I went to the customer support for IRC and they told me that Verizon doesn't allow you to use IRC. I have checked NUMEROUS boards and discussion forums only to have them tell me that VERIZON does NOT allow you to use IRC. However when I talk to Verizon they say " No it must be you.. " Well I am not taking that excuse anymore. I've done my share of work on this problem. Now it's your turn. Sorry to be rude.. but I paid for the mIRC program, and take artwork commisions over it as well. I probably pay more for verizon's service than I would with sprint (so says the rest of the family).
Please give me some real answers and real tech support.
Thanks for any help.

I choose option 3. The moment I talk to them about anything more complicated than the bare basics of getting connected they tell me they will transfer me to " tech support." Very frustrating lol. I always wonder who I was on the phone with prior to that because it says Tech support but clearly there must be different levels of their support lines. Sometimes I get someone who will talk and work with me, but generally I get someone who says " Okay I have down your issue and I'll pass it along.." then they hang up. However I have been transferred twice in one sitting from "tech support" to Tech support. So I dunno. I think they don't have an answer and so they run me in circles.

Problems with Verizon Wireless BlackBerry Tour BlackBerry OS 4.7.1.61 update:

Problems with Verizon Wireless BlackBerry Tour BlackBerry OS 4.7.1.61 update - I was anxious to download the update to see if it addressed the sticky trackball problems and the low volume issue when using a blue tooth device. However, in the process of updating my BB Tour yesterday, the install stopped on the 8th out 12 updates. After a couple of 'retrys', the BB error message on the desktop came up which instructed me to: i) disconnect the device, ii) restart the computer. iii) restart the loading process and, iV) restore my data by loading the loader back-up file using Restore. Unfortunately my Tour was left without any software and the Desktop manager couldn't recognize it. The error message on the Tour was 503. Called Verizon Wireless tech and bottom line, the only fix is a new Tour, which they're sending me. Anyone else having issues with the update? Also, does it address the trackball and blue tooth issues?

I had issues with the trackball and had to have my Tour replaced. I was told this model does not have a removable trackball so the entire phone has to be replaced. My current one is working OK but does stick a bit. Seems to get worse over time. My wife's tour is newer and so far she is not experiencing the problem. Have not experienced a problem with the Blue Tooth volume.
I have another issue with this upgrade that I am wondering if anyone else has seen. My wife has the Tour as well. She was prompted to do the upgrade and went through it. It appeared to work except it blew out her Contact Alerts. When we put them back in we can no longer get the sound to play when she receives an SMS message in her holster. Vibration works but doesn't do any good when it is in her purse. Phones calls, calendar alerts, alarms all work in holster. As soon as we delete the contact alert the default SMS alert will play in the holster. If she takes her phone out of the holster the Contact alert will play. My phone is still running 4.7.1.40 and this function works fine. I am thinking about trying to put her's back to my version if possible but not sure the best way to go about this

Am I the only person having problems with Verizon's refurbished Androids?

The best way for me to share my issue, is to submit a copy of a letter I have written to Verizon.
I have been a loyal Verizon customer for many years now. I have enjoyed good service until my most recent phone purchase approximately 18 months ago. I purchased an HTC Android, which did not work properly. It was immediately replaced with a refurbished phone from the manufacturer, which also did not work properly. That phone was replaced with another refurbished phone form the manufacturer that did not work properly, but after being given NO OPTIONS, I learned that I would have to live with a partially functional phone. For approximately a year I learned to live with the fact that my date/time stamp would disappear, that sometimes my phone ringer would not work, that I would never get an alert sound when a text message arrived. The worst part of this phone is that periodically it would dump/erase all my text messages. Since Verizon could not solve the problem and since Verizon blamed the manufacturer, I had no options, had no choices. Part of being with Verizon and my crappy phone was forced upon me with a 2 year contract. I would only have to be miserable for one more year. Then one day my phone erased some very important text messages. At this point, I had already spent hours and hours and hours with your tech support, and I decided I needed to try and force a solution. While talking with one of your tech people, I learned that the last phone I had been sent was sent to me with Beta software. The software was so outdated that the phone was not updating itself. In fact we could not update the phone manually. So, the tech person put me into yet another HTC. That HTC did have up to date software, but I was still having problems texting, date disappearing and other glitchy things. So, then the next tech person put me into a Motorola. Leary of droids, I asked for an Iphone but was refused. The tech person told me that I could use my HTC charger for the Motorola, and that he would not be sending me a Motorola charger for the phone. I understood.
So, I’ve been very patient throughout this. I figured I just had a few more months to get through this misery, wait for my contract to expire, get the Iphone. Well, I had not idea that the WORST WAS YET TO COME! So, the Motorola doesn’t charge. I tried charging that phone for 3 days, and nothing. So, back on the phone with your tech support. By the way, whomever reads this letter, I hope that someday you have to go through the tedious phone trees that I had to, only to get to Tech Level 1 which pre-screens, then you have to explain your story ALL OVER AGAIN to level 2 tech support. Of course, I now realize that Verizon thinks that I have hours and hours of time, that it is more important for me to burn 2-3 hours of my time to save Verizon 10 minutes of their time. I now realize just what a low opinion the company has of its “clients.” I actually can’t refer to myself as a client anymore; I think I am one of Verizon’s chumps.
So, back on the phone, more misery, more trips to the post office. This tech person could not believe that the new Motorola was not charging, and when I asked her if I could just get an Iphone, she said, “If you are returning a functional phone with the idea that you will get an Iphone, we will charge your for the returned phone. They will test the phone when it arrives, and if there isn’t anything wrong with it, we will charge you.” WOW. So, not only have I not had a phone that works properly, but I have wasted hours of my valuable time on the phone and running to the post office returning phones, but now I am being threatened by your employee who was implying that I am a liar. BUT WAIT, IT GETS WORSE!   So, she sends me another Motorola, and this phone wouldn’t take a charge either. DO YOU THINK SHE SHOULD HAVE SENT ME A MOTOROLA CHARGER INSTEAD OF MAKING ME USE MY HTC CHARGER?! How much money did you save here, $3 for a charger? So the new phone doesn’t charge, and of course now I am back on the phone tree with your tech support. BUT WAIT, IT GETS WORSE! CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT THE WORST IS YET TO COME?
So now I’m very angry. At some point, after a company FAILS you over and over, at some point you have to take matters into your own hands. I figured I am at that point. I ask again for a Iphone, and they say No. At this point I figure I may have to file a small claims against Verizon or pay off my contract, something dramatic, something that will solve the problem. I am now writing down employee names etc. This all went down last Friday, August 24th. I talked with Deshanee. Deshanee determines that the problem is the charger, but I explain to her that I have been reassured by two other tech people that my HTC charger is fine. I told her I was leaving town and needed this resolved. She said that I needed to go to a corporate Verizon store, and there she would arrange for a manager to give me a charger and charge the phone. Really!   So during rush hour traffic on a Friday, I get to run to a Verizon store and test something that might not work!!!!! Whomever reads this letter (if it every gets read), I hope that someday you have to go through this hell, frantic, running around, not knowing if I will have this resolved before my trip, and the HUMILIATION of having to do a tremendous amount of footwork, wasted time, wasted hours. You people must really despise your client/chumps to put us through this misery and HELL! I told her that that was unacceptable that I wanted to talk to a supervisor. If I go to a Verizon store during rush hour traffic on a Friday, going on my SIXTH REPLACEMENT PHONE ISSUE, I wanted to know the problem was going to be resolved. I am not a lab rat to be sent around town for an experiment. I asked her to get a supervisor and have him authorize me an Iphone. Deshannee reluctantly consulted with a man by the name of Chad (she refused to give me his last name), and he said, “No.”   He did not have any other solution for me other than to run to the Verizon store and test out a new charger. I had visions of me sitting in a Verizon store for 2 hours waiting to see if a phone would charge. At this point I am HATING VERIZON. You have no idea the depth of my anger and resentment towards your company. I wanted to personally talk to Chad, and since it looked like I would have no other choice than to follow my orders from Verizon, I started my way to the Verizon store. By the way, there is a Sprint store within two blocks of that corporate, Verizon store.
So Chad is not available but Denshanee connects me with a very nice supervisor by the name of Mary. Both Denshanne and Mary were courteous and professional, and I do not blame them for anything. I BLAME VERIZON for not giving them any customer service tools to work with. After all I have been through, figure out a way to resolve the problem once and for all. I had to come up with the idea terminating my contract, paying the $200 penalty, Verizon crediting me back the $200, and then I would BUY the ****** IPHONE! I suggested this to Mary, and she said that only the Customer Loyalty Dept could authorize that. So, after being on hold for quite a while, she came back to me to tell me that the Customer Loyalty Department would not authorize it. I was left on my own. Since the Corporate Verizon store would not give me a charger for my phone, I had to buy one. They sold me a Verizon, Universal Wall Charger. More to come on this later. Turns out EVEN THIS ISN’T RIGHT! They should have sold me a Motorola charger. It has taken me weeks to figure out why I can’t transfer data!!!!   So, I have spent hours on the phone with Verizon tech support to try and figure out why this ****** phone won’t transfer data. Verizon tech support was NO HELP. THEY DON’T KNOW. So, I had to call Motorola tech support to find out that Verizon’s Universal Wall Chargers are not used for data transfer. If you people were actually trying to drive me crazy, intentionally, I would be afraid for my life. If this is your level of competence when you are trying?
I went on my trip and of course, when I arrived in Europe, my phone did not work. I had to get on your tech support again, and it took 2 hours to trouble shoot the problem. Even though I had called several times to ensure my phone was international ready, to make sure I had a calling plan and a data plan, no one bothered to fill my requests. I believe I should record every phone call to Verizon, document everything. So, even after I got on a data plan, I received alerts that I was mounting over $1,000 in data roaming charges. I had to call Verizon several times from Europe to remedy this. You people just love making things hard. I hate Verizon.
So, my new Motorola does not transfer data to my computer, for a reason I am not sure of, but Motorola claims I have the wrong USB cord. I requested a car charger and was denied that today by your tech support person, Vondra. She said that Verizon only warrants phones, and that we have to buy the chargers and such. Yeah, of course Verizon doesn’t; that would cost you $3? So, I called the Verizon corporate store on La Cienega, the store that refused to give me a charger, that made me buy one (one of your tech people did credit me back for that BTW). I spoke with the manager, Vanessa. She said that they don’t carry Motorola chargers. They sell the phones, but not the chargers. I explained to her about the data transfer problem I was having, and she suggested I buy a memory card reader. GREAT. So, Verizon’s solution is to abandon the idea of having the proper equipment, piece meal a solution and yes, make me pay for it!
So, another item, which your tech support cannot solve, is that the phone does not work while it is being charged.   So, I called tech support again, asked to speak with a Supervisor. I was put on hold for a long time, and the tech support person came back and told me that there were no supervisors available and that one would have to call me back. I asked her the name of the supervisor that is supposed to call me back, and she said, “Alvin.”
So, a day has gone by and no call from Alvin. I doubt he will call. Your company is obviously going through some rough times. I am sure that within a few months, Verizon’s incompetence and failings will start to be reflected in your ratings
I have visited the Sprint store, and I am familiarizing myself with what they have to offer. Early next year my contract expires, and most likely I will leave Verizon. I should take you to small claims court! Most of all, I so much regret all the people I referred to you, dozens. I talked up your network, I told everyone how happy I was with the service. I was your advocate. No longer, and I am not putting the same effort into letting people know how horrific Verizon has been with me during these last 18 months. I am counting the months until my contract expires. I will limp along with this broken phone until my contract expires, just has I have done with all the other defective phones Verizon has provided me with. For a year my HTC phone ran on the first generation software, and I managed to just use it as phone, nothing much more, and that’s what I’ll have to do with this ****** piece of crap.

I believe you, Ihave been a subscriber for over 8 years and over that period of time I have has some phones fail. This I can accept and understand, however the policy of Verizon of only sending out recertified phones is a joke. I have had over 10 replacement phones sent out to me an none have actually lasted more that 1 month. Last year this went on and on, I was able to fix this by upgrading to the samsung stratosphere.   My son's Pantech phone failed and was replaced several times and to resolve this, I ended up purchasing a replacement from Amazon.
My worked fine at first, then the internet started to get really buggy and hard almost impossible to connect. I was very hesitant to have them send a replacement because of my experience with the replacement phones, however I had to concede because I could not connect to the Internet. I was assured that the replacement would undergo a 100++ point check. It arrived and I was happy with it, however a week later, it stopped charging. I spoke with a supervisor and the options he had for me was 1. keep going thru the warranty replacement process, 2 they will send me a downgraded phone (a 3G, unlike the 4G that I bought) or 3. they will buy it back for ... wait for it...$68. Another supervisor told me then they will have to keep sending out phones, every week if needed.
As expected the replacement phone failed again, and out of frustration I called again and they connected me to a manager immediately (my account is flagged because I filed a complaint with the BBB. And for once I got a helpful person, he told me they could not ship a new phone, but a different brand, the Motorola Droid 4, I said I want to keep the Stratosphere because of the car dock and desk dock, he said they would give me new docks as well. This seemed like a good deal, so I accepted. The Droid arrived and I was setting it up, transferred the sim, the 32 GB SD card, contacts and all. I noticed that the sim was not registering, it showed no data, I tried to remove it and it BURNED my hand, needless to say it fried my SD card with all the data, photos, etc....
When I was using a basic phone, this was not a big problem, just move your contacts and you are done. With smart phones this is a lot harder, you have to load all the apps and settings again. My stand is that I am paying $200++ a month for decent service... not even perfect, just decent. I get defective phones and Verizon is not willing to rectify this. I spoke with someone from the executive office of verizon and basically her answer was to keep replacing the phones until one works,, buy an new one at full retail price or get it from a third party like Amazon or Ebay....or...get this since I am 5 months away from my upgrade date, they will LET me do an early upgrade to any non apple product, but PAY an early upgrade penalty.
Right now I think that I will use one of my phones, BUT I will aside from the complaint with the BBB, I am filing a complaint with the FTC. I wrote this on the forums a few weeks ago, but of course no one from Verizon will have the B@ll$ to answer this.

Help setting up wireless network with Verizon DSL

I bought a MacBook Pro and an Air Port Extreme yesterday. I have an iMAC G5 from October 2004. I have Verizon DSL service and a Westell Series 6100 modem.
Bottom line --> I can't get the wireless connection to work.
I have successfully used a wired dsl connection with my iMAC G5. But, I tried to just disconnect the ethernet cable from my computer and put it into the Airport Extreme and that didn't work. I used the utility to set up the base station and the network, but I'm not sure if I did it properly.
I know a PPPoE is involved but I'm not sure of how to configure the system properly. I'm also not sure if the problem is with the configuration of the AirPort extreme or with my Verizon modem.
All I know is that I want to see a green light on that thing and not a flashing orange one.
Does any one have some instructions for setting up your AirPort Extreme using Verizon DSL? Has anyone else had similar problems? Thanks in advance!
MacBook Pro & iMAC G% Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Just finished solving this problem. I am not a strong tech guy, but I know that since it works for others it is just a question of poking and pushing. Anyway it was nine hours in the making...
My snow airport working with an airport express had been bullet proof with verizon dsl for a couple of years. I wanted to upgrade since I am now Intel mac and hit the blinking amber light.
I am only going to be able to give the big picture... The AEBS found and worked with all my computers from the beginning, so the problem became that the default IP Address and Subnet Mask were wrong and never automatically adjusted by the assistants.
Take your working plug-in ethernet connections or the working snow connections from the Airport Utility Internet Connect page. I used the manual configure process to access the info screens.
I copied all the numbers down, but I believe you only have to insert the IP Address, Subnet Mask, Router Address and DNS servers. I put "dsl.verizon.net" in the domain search box.
Go up to the IPv4 pull down menu and select manual and put in the numbers you copied. Then click Update. When the software returns control, the AEBS will still be orange.
Toggle the IPv4 to "using DHCP" Click Update.
This should bring the green light.
I think I then updated the Network Preference Pane, probably had to manually put in my wireless password again. Browser and mail program worked.
I think that was all. I may have had to repeat the toggle to make it stick, but I am operational for the last several hours, including the airport express, a G4 laptop and a Sony PC.
Hope this helps.

I am done with Verizon for their inability to update Android in a timely manner. When my contract is up, after 10 years, I am gone.

Verizon,
Nobody.. and I mean NOBODY is buying your crap. You don't update to the latest software in a timely manner. The entire planet has the KitKat update for Android and you don't under the guise of better experience. That is crap, everyone else can do it but you, you are inept.
Additionally, you are the most expensive by far and the guise of biggest network. I really don't care about the biggest network, I use a very small percentage of it so this is no excuse. AND if you are the biggest how come EVERY carrier can beat you on price and get updates out faster?
Your new tiered plans "Family Share" crap.
I do how you still charge me for data, voice, and text.. even though at the end of the day these are all just data packets across your network. I love being charged three times for the same service though.
You want to really be the best, then change your ways.. but I am done waiting around for you.. this contract ends and I am gone.

After 20 yes TWENTY YEARS being with Verizon I to am done with their cell phone business. I have had nothing but problems with my "new" Droid, which I was "steered" to by a tech who told me what I should have not what I chose, my weakness was to still trust the employee had the best interest of their customer at heart. Brewhahaha! Boy what a error that was on MY part. I got a phone that has been defective from the moment I turned it ON.
I first had home service with Verizon for many years...then wifi....then the bundle. Great, all I can say is as this company has grown, they have fallen apart on their customer service and their policies. Their nothing more than yet another CORPORATE mentality company whose bottom line is PROFIT.
My droid arrived, it would not hold a charge...it would not always take a preference I chose...it would change things on preferences on it's own (wondering if my phone is like that car in the movie "CHRISTINE") and was encouraged to keep using it, I just either didn't understand the "smart phone" ...or my age was allowing them to think I could no longer learn to use anything other than a rotary phone. One tech actually told me to take the battery out and reset the phone, hmmm...sure right and ruin the phone? RIGHT...who trains these people???
Verizon is no longer any resemblance of the once good company it just to be.
Today my day was horrible. (your just lucky I told blab on about the last three months dealing with them!)
Having just spent the majority of my day being transffered from one department to the next (seems they now have to transfer you if there is something as simple as adding an e mail to the order that was cancelled in error by the way to replace the lousy dysfunctional Droid I got) no one person can do what ever your account needs. Half way through my completely messed up day, I got so tired of this syrupy fake responses telling me to have a wonderful day and enjoy the rest of my day..and it was a pleasure to serve me.... after way to many transfers to other departments...they started sounding like they were recorded bots...or flight attendants. I just had to ask them if they served peanuts and cold drinks. HARD LIQUOR?
So now I am waiting for my "reburbished" droid. (again)..checked on why I had not gotten it...it was cancelled flagged by "fraud". WHATTT? Fourth time I have ordered something and this has happened, and no e mail asking me to contact them. I live in a senior gated community and they are trying to tell me "someone in your gated community attempted to commit fraud" so MY order gets flagged. (half the seniors in this gated community are half dead the others are either in Palm Springs or traveling...and the one who are slightly mobile...might not remember how to even get to the mail room .and back to their house..granted UPS requires I SIGN for the phone...but impossible since they flagged and did not send the phone out. So, here I sit, wondering after three months of dealing with these (not so funny) clowns and gain absolutely NO satisfaction, except to say....adios...when my contract ends. AT&T hopefully is better, but who knows..this phone situation may be the death of me yet..and in the end VERIZON will not longer have to waste their time or mine transferring me to try to get a 1. working phone 2. my order actually processed correctly 3. have to re-educate their techs.
I no longer TRUST Verizon, I no longer believe they have the interest of their customers at heart. (what heart?) and about the only thing I don't understand is they sell me a phone, then a package to buy time...but also $30.00 a month fee to connect to their lines? Shouldn't that rather come with the package deal??
Signed..done with Verizon squeezing me two ways to Sunday. I just hope some other company comes in with a plan to beat the socks off these top providers of cell services in the states...and I'd like to just sit back and watch the huge exodus of people leaving. The pickens are ripe to do just that.

How can I reach a person with Verizon Wireless

Due to Hurricane Sandy I have a bill payment problem. I called my bank this morning to see if they were open. They were. I drove to the bank to make a deposit and they had already closed so I could not make the deposit. Tomorrow is a wait and see. I may not have power. That wouldn't prevent me from making a deposit. If my bank is closed due to no power and I can not make a deposit what will happen with a payment I made via phone using my checking account information already saved in the billing part of Verizon Wireless. I always make my payment either via computer on-line or by phone. Always using my same checking account. I knew I could get to the bank the next morning (today, Monday, November 29th) and there would not be a problem. I even went to my checking account and checked on line. The Verizon payment which would show up as an ACH (I think I got that right, I don't have my checking account open and in front of me right now) payment and indicate it was to Verizon Wireless was not on my account yet. My concern began to grown as the storm is causing so many closures. Tomorrow the bank may be open, I make my deposit, and no problem. I wish I had the security of speaking with someone from Verizon Wireless since this is something I've never encountered and hopefully never do again. I am a worrier. I try not to worry about things I can not do anything about. Considering that my cell phone was my only contact once power goes I wanted that security or I would have waited and done things in the opposite and normal order. I do not know how and have not been able to reach an actual person with Verizon Wireless. I am hoping someone else will have the answer to my question and know how to reach a person. I would then stop worrying. I have been a Verizon Wireless customer for about ten years and I have four cell phones on my plan including my father who lives alone in Groveland, FL and was nearly killed in a tractor accident a few years ago. He did not have a phone. I have gladly provided him with one and I don't want to jeopardize my wireless account. That is why I am so worried about this. He is worried about me up here in this storm and I am always glad to know I can reach him to check on him since he lives alone. Verizon Wireless provided the security I needed for myself, my father, and my son. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Must have cell phone family - Janice

Hi Ebru,
Subsequence results are actually stored in their own resultlist container within TS.Sequencecall, which is accessible through the following statement:
Locals.ResultList[step].TS.SequenceCall.ResultList
where step is the index of the sequence call step. This resultlist is structured in the same way as the main resultList array. You can also access your subsequence directly from the sequence file container if it is in the same sequence file as the main sequence. Navigate to this reference using the following:
RunState.SequenceFile.Data.Seq[sequenceName]
Using this reference, you can access the containers for each step's result container.
Hope this helps!

Lion email does not work with Verizon FIOS - Eudora does

Recently I have not been able to send email using my Verizon outgoing server on the Lion email client. I can receive OK, but the server keeps rejecting something and a window pops up asking me to select a different SMTP server.
Before I called Verizon, I decided to see if there were any free eMail clients I could use as a test and the new Eudora showed up when I did a "Bing" search.
I just installed Eudora and after a very quick setup, I sent a message using the Verizon server without any problem, the mail coming into both the Eudora and Lion mailboxes.
So the problem is not with Lion, but with the Lion eMail client. I know Verizon does not officially support Macs, but since Eudora works, I have localized the issue to the standard Lion email client.
Anyone else have a similar experience with Verizon or some other ISP in not being able to send eMail?
First, Eudora is an answer. Second - I would like to resolve the problem with the Lion eMail client - it must be some obscure server setting. I know that it used to work, but I am not sure whether it was with Lion or Snow Leopard. Usually when I send an eMail, I use Cloud and was using MobileMe so I did not notice whether or not Verizon's SMTP server was working.
I noticed it today when I could not reply to an eMail that came in on one of my Verizon accounts.
Here is the Eudora URL
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Eudora_Releases
Click Mac Disk Image and voila! there you go.
(works for me)

Thunderbird might work, but as long as Eudora is working I am happy.
The built in client used to work with Verizon which is what puzzles me.
I think you are right, the MacMail app is primarily for cloud these days.

Anyone having trouble with Verizon outgoing?

I was having issues with both my .Mac and my Verizon outgoing servers. I thought perhaps this was just a bad connection on my end but for the past few days I have been able to receive emails from both accounts without problems. The errors always occured when trying to send an email. I looked on the Apple support page and found that I could change my port # from 25 to 587. Magically I was able to send email through my .Mac account again!! Woohoo!
I still however cannot connect to the outgoing mail server for Verizon. The idiots on the phone at Verizon told me its' an Apple issue so here I am looking for some help. Anyone have any suggestions about how to resolve my connection issue with the outgoing mail?
I have tried deleting the account, creating a new one, using connection doctor to check connections, repaired permissions, etc. I can't pinpoint it exactly but it also seems that this started happpening right near the release of 10.4.8. Hope they didn't break my email!!!
Thanks in advance.
Bob
P.S. - I triple checked all the settings and am satisfied that they are indeed correct and contain no errors.

I haven't been affected by any sending problems with any of my accounts and SMTP servers nor have I seen any other reports here about the same so it is doubtful the 10.4.8 update is to blame here.
Do you have any other SMTP servers available in Mail besides the .Mac and Verizon SMTP servers?

Severely disappointed with Verizon and the Revolution

More of a rant than anything. Just severely disappointed with Verizon. We have been customers for about 16years, have 4 cell phones and the cell based home phone with them. On this last upgrade, we went with some refurb. Revolutions as Verizon was/is pushing their refurb products. One phone began acting up after about 3 months, the other at about the 6 month mark.
Verizon's solution to lock up and several other various software related issues that happen continually is, you guessed it, Hard Factory Reset. When I complain that is very tough since I have many downloads (some come back after reset, some don't) and all my e-mail accounts from home and work have to be redone all the time, AND each time I do a factory reset, it adds a mirror image of my phone contacts, so each person is listed 4-5 times now. The good thing I guess is that I now have a hobby in my free time.....sitting around deleting duplicate contacts......
I called and simply asked to be able to upgrade to another phone at the discounted price, and would have another 2 year contract. DID NOT WANT A REFUND, just wanted to "fast forward" the calendar a year. Their response was a flat NO. They would offer to replace the phone, but only after I went through three more levels of customer no-service hell. Apparently the minions that answer the phone have no authority to help a customer, they make you do the hard reset and then if that does not work, they transfer you to some kid somewhere who puts you thru the paces and then you still have nothing.
This last time they were asking me at what specific times the phone was acting up, like at exactly what time did you NOT get the call you are claiming was made. At what exact time did that call refuse to go through that you claim to have made. At what exact time did you e-mail start acting up. Where exactly were you at. What a pain in the butt. I have tried to work with them, they did give me a phone number and "incident #" but there was no help there either.
I guess I will use the remainder f my contracted time with them and look or a new carrier. Since we can PORT numbers now, they can't hold any of my numbers hostage. If a VZW person monitors this, our $200.00 plus a month account can still be saved...just want a little help here.....

You make the appointment. And here it is 9PM and no one has shown. No call. No apologies. Nothing.No complaint department. No Complaint number. NOTHING. You'll probably get rid of this thread because it is taking up too much space. But Verizon, you USE to be a decent company. I sang your praises to everyone and swore by you. But lately, all I do is swear at you. You outsource your calls on the weekend and they screw up their orders and I have been screwed ever since. Sure, things are fine now. But I had to re-work my schedule for you and you sent numerous messages that you were showing. And NOTHING. This is not a way to run a business. This is not a way to treat a customer who pays their bills and has been a long time customer with you. My friend recently asked me about you and I said, oh yeah. Great, never had a problem, works with you.Now I think you've gotten too big for your own good. You can't provide quality service anymore. I've told her to forget about it and stay with someone else. Someone who provides SERVICE and not empty promises.

Cannot use Outlook2010 to connect to Gmail with Verizon ISP

I have a laptop that works just fine using Outlook2010 to connect to my Gmail POP3 account from multiple locations except my home where Verizon is my ISP. I read several threads that Verizon blocks certain ports. However, I use a SSL connection with incoming port 995 and outgoing port 465. Neither of these was mentioned in the threads as being blocked.
Called Verizon tech support, which was hopeless. The tech claims they only help with Verizon email. He sent me to the Verizon premium service, which just wanted to sign me up for a monthly support contract. The "tech" claims Verizon does not block any ports and that the problem is on my end.
I am ready to drop Verizon as my ISP. Any ideas how to fix this?

Welcome to the forums. This is a place where customers help each other. If you want a response from Verizon, you'll need to contact them using the options provided by the "contact us" link at the bottom of these pages.
I've never heard of Verizon blocking any ports except maybe outbound SMTP to non-Verizon servers on un-protected port 25.
I uses gmail's IMAP server over FiOS without any problems. I'm using Thuderbird with port 993 (SSL/TLS) for IMAP and 465 (SSL/TLS) for SMTP.
Are you using Windows? It can be setup to have different security and firewall settings for different connections. That might be an issue. While unlikely, you could have an odd setting in your router. And of course, it could be a Outlook configuration issue.
If you post more details, some of us here might be able to offer more specific suggestions.
Good Luck

Imap email set up with verizon

How do you set up a email account as imap with verizon?

TNS_2, you are correct in noting that with this setup, any email sent to a Verizon account would not be received, and a separate acount in Outlook would need to be created in that solution. Please note that I did say in the opening sentence that this setup was "to work with my third-party (non-verizon) email...." I actually don't use the Verizon email address(es) assigned to me which is why I only focused on these particular settings in order to receive email from a non-verizon account.
If folks don't use a third-party email address and use only their Verizon account, then in the "Incoming mail server" setting they would enter "pop.verizon.net", and put their Verizon email address in the "User Information" and "Login Information" sections. If a user has multiple email addresses, then it is appropriate to set up multiple accounts in Outlook, and set the "Incoming email server" field to the corresponding POP server for that email address. The SMTP setting would remain "smtp.verzion.net".
Thank you for your clarification.
