[QUOTE="tdevinda, post: 909783, member: 9735"] This is how to get mail from Gmail to your SE mobile. I wanted to do it for a long time since I got the mobile but ignored it since I have the Gmail App. But the real pro in the inbuilt client is that you can get and send attachments. Really nice when you are in a situation with no internet and a small attachment. (Even a larger attachment if you can pay for the GPRS :) ) Pro users: Don't get angry with the laymen advice. This is because I've made a lot of effort on the net to figure out what some pro's advice. So I decide that this should be simple. If this is a repost, teribbly sorry. Follow the steps and you'll get the mail to your mob. These settings are tested with my w810i. Should work fine with k750, k800, k510 etc. 1. Register yourself with Gmail (Ok this is obvious, you HAVE gmail, anyway I typed it) 2. Enable POP in Gmail Go to settings and to the "POP and Forwarding" tab. Enable POP. Make sure you select "Send mail from now onwards" from the dropdown if you are using your Gmail account with about 100 mail in it. It'll be annoying when you get 100 mail in your phone. 3. Get your GPRS connection straight If you don't have GPRS call your network's Customer service and they'll send you the settings. Save them. If you already have it, make sure its good (That you've used it and it works, so that in Troubleshooting you leave out one doubt) 4. Set your phone's mail settings Give the following values to the Email settings (Messaging > Email > settings) >> Go to Account settings and create a new account. >> Give an account name. We'll just use "Gmail" for now Email Address: [email]yourUsername@gmail.com[/email] Connect Using: your GPRS/WAP account should be listed. Select it Connection type: POP3 ---- >>Dont be fooled, there are more settings below the line. Incoming server: pop.gmail.com Username: [email]yourUsername@gmail.com[/email] Password: tdevindaRoKs (Oops did I type my password out loud?? :rofl:) Just type your password here Download: Headers Only Ok, here, you can select headers and Text, but this is the best method for you to spend less and get more. Check interval: Any interval you like. About 3h/4h would be nice. ----- Outgoing server: smtp.gmail.com Username: [email]yourUsername@gmail.com[/email] Password: Just type your password here ----- Allow Connection: Home network Auto connect: Disabled in my phone, leave it as it is Your name: Hmmm, wonder what you put here??? :rofl: Signature: This appears below every mail you send. Like regards. (Put some thing like our Anusha uses : "Cheers, Anusha" :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: ) Copy outgoing: Off Encryption: Incoming server: SSL Outgoing Server: SSL Incoming port: 995 Outgoing port: 465 5. Now for some action You need a Trusted certificate to send mail. This is the click for most users around the world and you could get stuck trying to install the certificate, like I did. :) The certificates available are not recognised by some phones. Happened to me too. Just out of luck, I saved them to the format base.64. This is recognised by my mobile. You can do that by opening it and saving it as a file (in the details tab of the viewer). For your convienience, I have given you the CONVERTED files. But the problem is you'll have to bluetooth them to your mobile. I dont know any other way. I think they dont execute in the phone. ( does Not in mine) Copy them to another phone and bluetooth them to yours. That what I did. Don't know another way :( They will try to install when recieved. Select install and Ok if the phone asks any gibberish. Now you're done. Try getting mail in Inbox> More> send & receive and send some test mails. Tell me if you have any issues. Cost ---- It costs about 0.30 cents for a single text e-mail for me with Kit. Since Dialog dont charge for access( Rs. 2) now, its great. Costs about 18 cents for checking mail and if there are mail, about 25 cents. But with other nets like Mobitel , TiGo or Hutch, I really dont know the charges. And wonder whether Nokia's have this feature. Good if they dont. ;) I can bully some Nakias. :rofl: [/QUOTE]
