Hi everyone!

I am trying to set up my W900i to receive GMail

I use the settings -

Account name - W900i
email address - my_email@gmail.com
Connect using - o2 Prepay GPRS
Connection Type IMAP4

Incoming Server: imap.gmail.com

Username - my_email@gmail.com and have also tried my_email as the user name
password - ******** and have triple checked it

Download - Headers and Text
Check Interval - 5 minutes

Outgoing Server: smtp.gmail.com

Username - my_email@gmail.com and have also tried my_email
password - ******** and have triple checked it

Your name - ofiaich
Signature - left it blank


Copy outgoing - sent to my main address

Encryption - Incoming server and outgoing server -SSL

Incoming Port - 993
Outgoing Port - 587 BUT I also read that 465 can be used for Outgoing and tried it.

When I send a test message, I get the error, ILS/SSL server certificate not authorised by known authority. Contact your email provider

Any ideas to solve this would be much appreciated.

The only difference with mine are:
- download > to limit.
- limit > 10kb.
- smtp > as imap.
- port > 993 & 465 (Aino)
Good luck

I think it is in the imap vs smtp where you lock up. or start again here:

Your settings seem to be correct, the problem is that the certificate that Google Mail is using isn't being accepted by your phone. Does it give you an option to continue anyway?

thanks everyone!

I just finished my third beer, and am supping a great Irish Whiskey so I will check back here tomorrow

@wiifanatic no option to continue..

@Residentevil I have read your link and had found it earlier. Couldn't sort out the problem!

@hihihans thanks, I have tried your settings and get the same error.

@ofiaich: Alright, here's what you want to do. First you want to connect your phone to the computer in Phone Mode. Next, download the Equifax CA from here. Next, drag the file onto the Sony Ericsson File Manager icon on your desktop. Your phone should then ask you if you want to install a new certificate, push Yes. Try sending a email again and it should work

@ofiaich, I don't know if this will help you... but I had a similar incident setting up my mom's Elm (it used to receive Gmail then it suddenly stopped giving server errors)


Go to this link and enter your login info.
