if using one of the Optus resold plans you need to use the Optus SMTP server to send

im using vodaphone sim card.

then it's the Vodafone SMTP server you need to use

then it's the Vodafone SMTP server you need to use

I beleieve it's smtp.vodafone.net.au for vodafone 3G

That's strange, i initially set up using exetel smtp server and was able to send mail and had no probl with it, today i cant send with the same setting, but by changing to vodafone stmp i am able to do it. thanks for the help.

if you were at home on WiFi using an Exetel service that would work

lol i think you are right, i did sent the mail at home using wifi from exetel. so now that i've set up using vodafone smtp server would it work when i get home?

yes can work fine, you may need to set your mail up as ssl though, see how you go once you try it

i had my primary server set up using exetel and the secondary as vodafone, technically if the primary is not available, the phone wll try the secondary but that didnt work for me. i had to turn off the primary when im not home so it can use the secondary to send mail. both setting are on for primary and secondary.

just setting it to use Vodafone with authorisation would probably be simpler, then no need to change it
