Registerin​g an email account on the torch

I have a blackberry that belonged to my wife and I am now going to use it. I have reset the factory settings and tried to register my email account on the phone. When doing this I get an error message that says, 'the user names is invalid. A user name must be 4 characters or more'. I wasnt provided with the email company providers to select from as usually happens and my username is more than 4 characters. 
Can anybody help me please? 
Thanks

  • What is POP, POP3, and IMAP When I Setup My Email Account in the HP ePrint App?

    I have done as much research as I can do in regards to setting up the HP ePrint App Email Accounts.  If you do not see your email information listed here, feel free to post it below or contact your internet service provider, phone or email company, or whomever else that might know this. I am certain there are many more that could be added but this is a rather extensive list.  I hope you find what you need to finish setting up your email applications.
    I have noticed information differs from website to website but as I have learned over time, with domain masking and companies buying out other companies, I just researched all the information I could find and that way if one of the hostnames or ports don’t work, then you can continue to view further into this page to see if that information is the same. At that point, if you can’t find what you need here, I would say you have done all that you can do before contacting the appropriate support team for your email information.  
    Most of the links are active and the ones listed below should send you directly the pages I pulled this information from but only a few of them were from the actual support sites themselves (Apple support was vague, as well as Microsoft, Macintosh, and commonly used ISPs). Save yourself some time by searching here first. I hope you find what you need in this one-stop-shop and if you get an email address not listed here please post it below and I will add it to this original document.
    Lastly, as this information is from forum-based and other unofficial websites, I would like to add that this is a copy/paste/edit-for-easy-reading document I created in my spare time. This is a very long document so I do recommend using the search and find quick keys to search for the email you need but the top part of this has definitions as to what servers, ports, and hostnames are and the basic setup in case you need to know what these options are used for and what they mean.
    Below are the most common settings needed to set up most POP3/IMAP Email Clients or Devices:
    The following information below can be found at http://www.swestcom.com/Support/q4.htm
    “What is POP3?
    Post Office Protocol version 3 (POP3) is a standard mail protocol used to receive emails from a remote server to a local email client. POP3 allows you to download email messages on your local computer and read them even when you are offline."
    "What is IMAP?
    The Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) is a mail protocol used for accessing email on a remote web server from a local client. IMAP and POP3 are the two most commonly used Internet mail protocols for retrieving emails. Both protocols are supported by all modern email clients and web servers."
    "Main difference between IMAP and POP3:
    The POP3 protocol assumes that there is only one client connected to the mailbox. In contrast, the IMAP protocol allows simultaneous access by multiple clients. IMAP is suitable for you if your mailbox is about to be managed by multiple users."
    "What is SMTP?
    Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) is the standard protocol for sending emails across the Internet. SMTP uses TCP port 25 or 2525 and sometimes you can have problems to send your messages in case your ISP has closed port 25 (How to check if port 25 is open?). To determine the SMTP server for a given domain name, the MX (Mail eXchange) should have more information."
    "When setting up:
    POP - choose POP and the incoming server port will default to 110
    IMAP - choose IMAP and the incoming server port will default to 143
    All other settings are the same.
    Username = [email protected]
    Password = the password you set up when you configured your mail box
    Incoming Mail Server = mail.yourdomain.com
    Outgoing Mail Server= smtp.yourdomain.com
    Outgoing Server Requires Authentication (typically found in advanced options or settings)
    Do NOT check "Log on Using Secure Password Authentication"
    Use the same Username and Password as Incoming or select "Use Same Settings as Incoming"
    Outgoing Server Port= 2525 or 587This is subject to change based on the individual preferences of your ISP"
    Note - Substitute your actual domain name for "yourdomain.com" and substitute the first part of your email address for "user."
    Email Ports
    For networks, a port means an endpoint to a logical connection. The port number identifies what type of port it is. Here are the default email ports for:     
    POP3 - port 110
    IMAP - port 143
    SMTP - port 25
    HTTP - port 80
    Secure SMTP (SSMTP) - port 465
    Secure IMAP (IMAP4-SSL) - port 585
    IMAP4 over SSL (IMAPS) - port 993
    Secure POP3 (SSL-POP) - port 995.
    For Mozilla, Outlook, Windows mail, Windows Live, Outlook 2003-2010, Entourage for Mac OS, and Mail for Mac OS follow this link: http://help.outlook.com/en-ca/140/cc875899.aspx    (this website has not been looked over for validation but may assist in other leads towards the right direction)
    Have you ever wished you could use your AOL email account with something else, something more powerful, something more convenient than AOL, something like Outlook, Windows Mail, Outlook Express, or The Bat!? Thanks to the wonders of IMAP, you can.
    If you set up your AOL email account in any email client capable of IMAP, you can receive and send messages easily. Even the AOL folders — Spam, Saved, Sent Items and your Trash will be there automatically. Of course, you can also use POP to fetch incoming mail in an uncomplicated fashion.
    For instructions on how to assist you with this you can also follow this link: http://email.about.com/od/aoltips/qt/Access_an_AOL_Email_Account_with_any_POP_IMAP_Email_Program.htm
    Set Up POP or IMAP E-Mail on an Android G1 How do I set up POP or IMAP E-Mail on an Android Device?
    From the home screen, tap Applications > Settings > Accounts & sync > Add account > Manual setup.
    On the Incoming settings screen, in the Protocol drop-down menu, select IMAP or POP3. We suggest you select IMAP because it supports more features.
    In the Email address and Username text boxes, enter your full e-mail address, for example [email protected], and then select Next. Your user name is the same as your e-mail address.
    In the Password text box, enter your password.
    In the IMAP server or POP3 server text box, enter your IMAP or POP server name. For information about how to look up the server settings you need to complete this step and other steps in this procedure, see “How do I find the server settings” later in this topic.
    In the Security type drop-down menu and Server port text boxes, specify the POP or IMAP settings that you looked up in step 5, and then tap Next. Your e-mail application will check your IMAP or POP settings.
    On the Outgoing server settings screen, the Login required option should be selected for you, and the Username and Password text boxes should be filled in.
    In the SMTP server text box, enter the SMTP server name you looked up in step 5.
    In the Security type drop down menu and Server port text box, specify the SMTP settings that you located in step 5, and click Next.
    In the Account name, text box, enter a name for your account (for example “Office 365 email” or “Work email”). In the Your name text box, enter the name you want displayed when you send e-mail to others (for example “Tony Smith”), and then select Finish Setup.
    What else do I need to know?
    If your e-mail account is the type that requires registration, you must register it the first time you sign in to Outlook Web App. Connecting to your e-mail account through a mobile phone will fail if you haven't registered your account through Outlook Web App. After you sign in to your account, sign out. Then try to connect using your mobile phone. For more information about how to sign in to your account using Outlook Web App, see How to Sign In to Your E-Mail Using a Web Browser. If you have trouble signing in, see FAQs: Sign-in and Password Issues or contact the person who manages your e-mail account.

    The following information is according to a forum comment at the bottom of this webpage concerning HOTMAIL and mail server settings:
     “As other web based email services, Hotmail is using the HTTP protocol for connecting you to your mailbox. If you want to send and receive Hotmail emails using an email client software, then your software must support Hotmail HTTP access for your email account. Some email clients, such as Outlook Express or Microsoft Outlook, offer builtin support for Hotmail accounts, so you only have to select HTTP when you are asked to select your email account type and select Hotmail as the HTTP Mail Service Provider.”
    Mail Server Settings for Hotmail using the Microsoft Outlook Connector
    If you are using Microsoft Outlook & the Outlook Connector, you can define your Hotmail account just like any regular POP3 email account:
    Hotmail Incoming Mail Server (POP3) - pop3 . live. com  (logon using Secure Password Authentification - SPA, mail server port: 995)
    Hotmail Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) -smtp . live . com (SSL enabled, port 25)
    Additional information from this website has not been confirmed or validated as of yet but it does include additional information or perhaps corrected information. If the above steps do not fix the problem with setting up an email account for the HP Apps then read on:
    Yahoo! Mail Settings
    Yahoo Mail offers standard POP3 access for receiving emails incoming through your Yahoo mailbox, by using your favorite email client software. To setup your email client for working with your Yahoo account, you need to select the POP3 protocol and use the following mail server settings:
    Yahoo Incoming Mail Server (POP3) - pop.mail.yahoo.com (port 110)
    Yahoo Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) - smtp.mail.yahoo.com (port 25)
    POP Yahoo! Mail Plus email server settings
    Yahoo Plus Incoming Mail Server (POP3) - plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com (SSL enabled, port 995)
    Yahoo Plus Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) - plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com (SSL enabled, port 465, use authentication)
    · Google GMail Settings
    The Google GMail service offers email client access for retrieving and sending emails through your Gmail account. However, for security reasons, GMail uses POP3 over an SSL connection, so make sure your email client supports encrypted SSL connections.
    Google Gmail Incoming Mail Server (POP3) - pop.gmail.com (SSL enabled, port 995)
    Outgoing Mail Server - use the SMTP mail server address provided by your local ISP or smtp.gmail.com (SSL enabled, port 465)
     MSN Mail Settings
    The MSN email service allows you to use the MSN POP3 and SMTP servers to access your MSN mailbox.
    MSN Incoming Mail Server (POP3) - pop3.email.msn.com (port 110, using Secure Password Authentication - SPA)

    Mail.com Mail Incoming Mail Server (POP3) - pop1.mail.com (port 110)
    Outgoing Mail Server - use your local ISP SMTP mail server
     Netscape Internet Service Mail Settings
    The Netscape e-mail system is web-based, which means you can access their e-mail from any Internet connection. Netscape Internet Service also supports AOL® Communicator, Microsoft® Outlook, Microsoft® Outlook Express, and other POP3 e-mail software. The outgoing mail server needs SSL support, so make sure your email client software supports SSL connections over the SMTP protocol.
    Netscape Internet Service Incoming Mail Server (POP3) - pop.3.isp.netscape.com (port 110)
    Netscape Internet Service Outgoing Mail Server - smtp.isp.netscape.com (port 25, using a secure SSL connection)

    Just to recap, this is a collection of ports I have collected over time for people who needed this information when setting up the HP ePrint app so that they could view their email from within the app.  I am certain other applications also need this information.  Although lengthy, I could not find a more comprehensive place to retrieve this information.  Feel free to post additional information, faulty information, or other related topics below as this is simply a collection of data and it would be practically impossible to test all of them. Thank you!

  • HT3228 Please let me know how to avoid receiving the spam into my email accounts on the iPad.  It is very annoying! My server puts it in the spam folder...why do I get it on the iPad?    Is it avoidable and how?

    Please let me know how to avoid receiving the spam (from the spam folder on the server) into my email accounts on the iPad.  It is very annoying!
    My server puts it in a spam folder and I do not receive it in the Ms Outlook on my desk computer...why do I get it on the iPad?    Is it avoidable and how?b

    You actually cannot do anything to your ipad when its locked but look at pictures the time and date, you need to restore it, and if it dosent let you restore, good luck chuck Heres how to restore it: Okay, i only know the itunes way soz, lol. Try to connect your ipad to itunes, if it does let you then you should be able to select the device you have in the corner somewhere, once you do that you should see a screen that looks sort of like your ipads setting, you should have a button that says "Restore" click that and your ipad should be restored. If that dosent work you should try going to your regular office depot or something. Good Luck!

  • 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.

  • HT4865 How can I have multiple icloud email accounts using the same rescue email account.

    I have several Iphones for my business for managers to use.
    I would like to set them up to send me the recovery emails but it seems only one icloud address can do that.
    Is it possible to have multiple icloud email accounts using the same - seperate recovery email address?

    Unfortunately, you cannot change your primary @me.com or @icloud.com email address, you could however create an alias or create a completely new account.

  • How do I recover notes lost due to switching my associated email account on the iPad?

    I'm using the original iPad (software version is 5.1.1) and was trying to email a note to a friend. Here is what happened:
    1. The email containing my note did not go thru so I went into the email app. I discovered that my email was not connected  properly so I went into settings and tried to re-enter the password for my gmail account. I still could not log in.
    2. Then I went to gmail on my computer and noticed that there was suspicious activity on my account so gmail forced me to reset my password. Done.
    3. Back to my iPad. Logged into my email with the correct password and it still would not work.
    4. Decided to change the gmail account associated. Logged in properly this time. Went into Notes and my notes disappeared in front of my eyes and switched to the Notes that I have on my iPhone (which are different). At this point I realized that Apple has some stupid setting that links notes to an email account.
    5. Next, I tried to recover my old notes from the original gmail account. Logged in again and this time it worked (I think it took some time for the iPad to retrieve my newly updated gmail password). Notes still did not appear.
    6. Back to settings. Selected the Gmail account, turned off notes, and turned them back on. Still no notes.
    7. Back to my computer. Noticed there is a Notes folder automatically created on the email account. The note I wanted was the only one not in that folder. Thanks Apple.
    Please help!!!

    BTW, I believe the reason why the note I needed was the only one not saved in my Gmail "Notes" folder is because it was the only note created after my Gmail account encountered suspicious activity therby causing my iPad to require a password update.
    Once I switch email accounts, the note was lost (hopefully not forever) since my iPad didn't have time to receive the updated password info from Gmail and push the latest note to the notes folder.
    I'm convinced this is what happened and caused the problem. I just need someone to crack my case for me!

  • Can i set up two emails accounts on the mail function tab and switch between them

    I would like to be able to set up two email accounts on the mail tab on the Iphone 5 and switch between them, is this possible?

    Yes it is possible to set up multiple accounts but you cannot switch between them in the mail app.  What you can do in settings/mail etc is have one set as active an dthe other as inactive and you can change that from time to time if you want

  • I have an iphone 3gs.  I have 7 separate email accounts on the phone.  Everytime I update, it reloads all of the emails as new unread emails.  Is there any way to either delete all or alternatively stop it from reloading all prior emails?

    I have an iphone 3gs.  I have 7 separate email accounts on the phone.  Everytime I update the phone, it reloads all emails received as new unread emails.  I can click each one, move them to trash and then delete all.  However, I am wondering whether there is any way to either (a) delete all from the inbox or (b) stop them from reloading?
    Thanks

    Hello Kizzyk,
    I would start with taking a look at the settings to make sure that you are able to send and receive messages. If everything looks good then the next step would be to remove the accounts and add them back in. Take a look at the article below for more information and details on how to troubleshoot your issue further.

  • I have an email account causes the machine to hang up after being in use for a day.  It only occurs on my Macbook Pro and only one particular account.  The problem account works fine on my iMac and Windows Machines.  Any ideas what is causing this?

    I have an email account causes the machine to hang up after being in use for a day.  It only occurs on my Macbook Pro and only one particular account.  The problem account works fine on my iMac and Windows Machines.  I have been to the local Genius bar and through trial and error we have determined that Mail is working ok but somehow the account is causing the problem.  I have used this account for years.  Any ideas what is causing this?

    No idea why, but one thing you may try if you have the time, is create a new user, and set up the problem mail account in the new user space. See if it causes your MBP to hang as well.  That will tell you if it is something wrong with your main User, or something wrong with MBP.
    Assuming this works, I'd nuke the problem account in your main user space, re-start, and reinititate the account and see if that helps.
    Depening on how many email accounts you have setup, it may be necessary to nuke the whole Mail folder in your User/Library....   Hard way to get it to work, but just my idea.

  • Problem to register my email account in the Z30 HUB / with my french carrier "FREE"

    I am confuse
    I have one usual email account with "Webmail Free"
    Later on, I add 2 more email accounts on "Webmail Free".
    I have used them for a long time by now and I don't even remember the login of those last two account.
    Now when I want to register my email account in the HUB, it always says, my login is wrong ...:!
    Why ?
    Perhaps it is one of the 2 others.
    Can anyone help me?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Maybe I don't understand your question but without the login information you can't add in the accounts. To add in your accounts go to Settings >Accounts and enter the credentials there. If you don't know your password(s) you will have to reset them with those providers.

  • Setting up a Comcast email account on the iPad

    What is the best way to set up a comcast email account on the iPad?
    Do I only have the option to use 'Other' or can I set up using MS Exchange?

    Thanks. I had to try and set up for another user. I would never even consider using comcast. So outdated it's almost a joke. I find it easier to only use my iCloud email on any of my devices. I just have any other email accounts forwarded to my me.com address and just reply from there. And if you use Gmail it doesn't play nice with Mac Mail.
