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.

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?

Nokia messaging. pop3 or imap?

POP3 only allows you to see your Inbox, IMAP allows you to see all your folders.



POP3 doesn't allow push e-mail, IMAP does (if IMAP IDLE is supported).



Nokia Mail is Nokia Mail, you set up your account using the wizard and what appears works, supposedly. Really it's IMAP IDLE running on Yahoo's servers.



Nokia Messaging is a service set up on Nokia's servers which polls POP3 and IMAP mailboxes and pushes updates to the phone. Good points: It's Nokia's most supported option (meaning if you set up a direct connection to a POP3 or IMAP mailbox and it doesn't
work, Nokia will tell you to accept the terms and conditions and use Nokia messaging). Bad points are an always-on connection draining the battery and privacy (Nokia keeps a copy of your passwords and repeatedly logs into your mailboxes with no encryption).
