IMAP on the Cingular 650? - Treo Forums

claytonbell · 02-22-2005, 07:12 AM

Hello everyone!

I'm trying to do as much research as possible for the glorious moment this summer when my Nextel contract runs out and I can switch to Cingular and get the Holy Grail of phones, so I'm wondering if I can check an IMAP email account with the software included with the phone. It's not an Exchange server email account, so I was just wondering if anyone has any experiance with this. Thanks for the help!

Yes, you can with Versamail.

No problem at all. One of my accounts is with AOL and I send and receive without a hitch. Where I do have a problem with Versamail, Cingular and the unlocked 650 is with AT&T Worldnet but that is POP3.

Hi Jackoat,

I am having trouble using aol. I can receive but not send. And I also can't sync... could you share your settings with me. It would help me out a lot.

Since it is working for you, I thought maybe your settings would work for me.

Thanks,

Here are the account settings that should be used to send/receive AOL:

IMAP Server: imap.aol.com
Username: your AOL screen name
Password: your AOL password

SMTP Server: smtp.aol.com
Username: your AOL screen name
Password: your AOL password

Tap the "More..." button in the server account settings. In that window, enter the following:
POP3 SETTINGS:
Use Port: 143

SMTP SETTINGS:
Use Port: 587

Does anyone have the Cingular settings for getting the Cingular e-mail via Versamail? I am having a hard time getting it set up.

Thanks,

I had trouble sending emails out of veramail and when I finally called the techs at Cingular they told me to use "cwmx.com" for the outgoing server. I don't know why they don't tell you that right away but it worked for me.

Good Luck,

Yep, SMTP settings> "cwmx.com" works with any POP account and versamail. Yahoo, gmail, .mac, etc.
