Just got the E51.Neat phone, like it.Right, I'm having trouble configuring the email though.It has a wizard, but still I'm stuck. Just read now that the yahoo mail cannot be configured to the e51 unless its a bussiness mail acount.Is that true or does someone know how to get around that.If so, can you send us a link. I have the yahoo go but I'd rather be able email from the phone instead of loading up the yahoo go.
Has anyone configured yahoo email to the e51, if so.How.
Or what other email clients have you got configured to the e51.
Cheers, got to go to bed.:eek:
Night.

Put your e51 in offline mode!
THEN try to use the wizard to set up your yahoo account. It will obviously fail to do so without a connection. THUS it'll allow you to setup the account manually!
Just enter the settings you get from yahoo!
On pc go to your yahoo account! Top right corner you have 'options'; click and the next page has pop-settings etc...

Incoming server: pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk (.co.uk - even if it's a .ie-account!!!)

Outgoing server: well, I'm with vodafone, so for outgoing-server it's mail.vodafone.ie!!! Other networks afaik you use yahoo's outgoing server! With voda you use vodafone's server!

Mailboxtype is Pop3

Access point with voda is Vodafone ISP or MISP - vodafone live! Does not work with the email client on prepay!!!

With o2 prepay the wap gprs access point works afaik!

Oh,
You beat me to it!

You don't need a business account to use the nokia email client!
Meteor will charge you for data, just as they would for browsing etc... That's all!
