Hi
I have set up an e mail account on the o2 website and set up the phone (T610) as per the topics on this board but when I send and recieve, the phone connects etc. then I get the message "Wrong mailbox or password" I have checked the usernames, passwords and all the other settings loads of times and can't find anything wrong. I am connecting with the o2 wap gprs account. Anyone got ant ideas? This is driving me mad.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers, Rich

Did you put your full email address as username? This message was posted from a T610

Hi
Yup, certainly did m8.
Thanks for the reply though.
Here's my settings
protocol: pop3
inc. server: 193.113.160.13
incoming port: 110
mailbox: (username)@o2.co.uk
password: (password)
outgoing server: 193.113.160.13
outgoing port: 25
e-mail address: (username)@o2.co.uk

I have checked this but still I get the message "Wrong mailbox or password"
Anyone else have any ideas please
Cheers, Rich

Yeah, I think I recall that for O2 email accounts you only need the account username and not the full email address.
i.e. phil.n instead of phil.n@o2.co.uk
(before anyone tries that is not my email address )

I think the problem might be with the data comm. Here is what I use:

O2 MOBILEWEB
APN: mobile.o2.co.uk
Userid: web
Password: web
DNS Address: 193.113.200.200

Then for the email connections:

Connect using: O2 MOBILEWEB (above).
Protocol: POP3
Incoming Server: mail.o2.co.uk Port: 110
Mailbox: username@o2.co.uk
Password:
Outgoing Server: smtp.o2.co.uk Port: 25
email address: As mailbox

Works for me!
Good Luck

You posted that you use 193.113.160.13 i think the problem may be in the omission of a 0 in the address try using 193.113.160.013 This message was posted from a T300

If he is getting the error message "wrong mailbox or password" then it is not the data account which is wrong.
It means what it says - either the mailbox is wrong or the password is wrong.

Phil.

edit: Again, the IP address will not be the problem. It is very rare that you need to include the leading zero/zeros but this still isn't the cause.

Well I dont want to call you a liar or anything but the O2 servers do not act this way - I should know, I have used them for years.
