Setting up email on mobile phone

[AL4K]

Hi
I am using the Nokia N8 and having trouble setting it up to read my email.
Do I choose to set it up as Mail for Exchange or as "other"
And what do i need to put under domain and server?

not familiar with your phone but it won't be the Exchange option, settings are just as per usual Exetel setup instructions

Thanks can you let me know those settings again as I forgot what they are.

Hi AL4K

Log into your User Facilities and go to the Email setup page and you will find the details there.

For example, In the ADSL User Facilities, go to Manage Services in the left-hand menu, then select Email, then go to the Setup Instructions tab.

Alternatively, have a read of this page

i have an android phone and i setup my exemail on it.
I can recieve email but i cant send.
I dont know what could be the problem.

Here is my outgoing settings:
Server address: smtp.wa.exemail.com.au
username: ******@exemail.com.au
password: ********
Encryption: no encryption
Server Port: 25

I really need help getting it to work. thank you

EDIT: i tried using the Optus SMTP outgoing mail server: mail.optusnet.com.au port 25. but it still doesnt send. im totally running out of ideas

I have asked a technical support engineer to look in to this. He will soon get in touch with you.

I was under the impression that we can't connect to exetel SMTP servers unless we are connecting over an exetel ADSL connection, or possibly a "exetel1" mobile APN.

Anything else is, I guess, regarded as a hostile and firewalled.

Yes you are correct

SMTP relay is not enabled on smtp.[state].exemail.com.au , this is the SMTP server for the free exemail service , however SMTP relay is enabled on hsmtp.exetel.com.au , this is the SMTP server for the paid hosting services.
