I had the same problem, and was driving me nuts, until I read somewhere about the same problem wherein he hadn't selected "Use authentication (ESMTP)" in the advanced setup. Once I did this, presto, can send and receive. Not as quick and easy to set up as a Balckberry, but I have this phone. so happy to have email now.
Good luck,
Sean

I followed your thread for the install, I keep getting an Error, like "go to" gmail set-up page and enable POP access, I do that and still the same olde'. Like 530 5.5.1 Authentication Req'd, one code was; e19sm3261945qbe.
Going back to Account Set-up,
Acct Name: gMail ( exactly like this?)
Mail Service: US-GMail Is this right? I've selected "Other" and when I go back it has US-GMail, I've re-done the "set-up" process 2X's to make sure I've done everything right!
What am I missing here?
PLZ help!
Thank you.
