Windows 10: cant receive email after changing from POP3 tp IMAP

cant receive email after changing from POP3 tp IMAP

Gmail (POP3 / IMAP) access with WM6?

Hello,

I have difficulties getting my Samsung i780 to access my Gmail account. I followed all the steps mentioned on Gmail's and Windows Mobile's website on setting up an email account (e.g. enabled POP3 access, IMAP, specified incoming, outgoing email-server, etcetera)
but when I select menu -> Send/Receive, I get the message
'Cannot Connect' Cannot connect with current connection settings. To change your connection settings, tap Settings.

Any suggestions, anyone?

Pop3 from Imap

Hi Max,

Kindly be guided that IMAP settings was designed with no option to convert an email to POP3. What we can do is to: (1) Add your POP3 email account. (2) Transfer your mail folders and (3) Remove your current IMAP Account.

Outlook 2016 - Exchange Server and POP3 email accounts


I use Outlook 2016 for all my email requirements.

One BTinternet.com email address
One Outlook.com email address

Previously had above two email accounts sending and receiving from the same PST file each using POP3.

Wanted to change the Outlook.com to IMAP with my understanding being that this would then sync both ways with the web-mail for Outlook.com.

Deleted the old POP3 account settings for the Outlook.com email address and then went through the process of setting up again using the automatic configuration rather than the "manually configure" thinking this would automatically use IMAP. (Left settings unchanged for the POP3 BTinternet.com email address).

To my surprise the Outlook.com email address was not setup as an IMAP but as an Exchange Server.

Initially thought this would be ok as this would also sync both ways with web-mail. Soon discovered however that any email coming in to my still remaining BTinternet POP3 email address was also arriving into the Outlook.com Inbox.

Why is this happening and what do I have to do to still keep the POP3 email separate from the Exchange Server email each using their own Inbox? (Both Inbox's are listed in the left hand panel of Outlook 2016).

Any help much appreciated.
