So i just got an iphone and I managed to successfully set it up to receive my imap mail from webmail, but I can't seem to get it to send on Edge or my wireless connection. To assist me with finding the proper smtp for my wireless connection know that I live at Campus Crossings, formerly Uhouse.

never mind, I appear to have figured it out. Apparently smtp.ncsu.edu will allow you to authenticate and send through it even when not on campus.... pretty sweet

^try sending to an email outside of the ncsu.edu domain. Im using smtp.ncsu.edu on my Q9 right now and it will only let me send email to ncsu.edu addresses. Been too lazy to figure out what the AT&T smtp server is, maybe this thread will help.

^^Yeah i'm having the same problem on my smartphone w/ atnt. I can receive emails just fine, but can't send them using the ncsu server. Need to find a server that i can send from. I'm assuming atnt would have one.

" AT&T outgoing e-mail (SMTP) server policy SUBJECT: AT&T outgoing e-mail (SMTP) server policy What are the AT&T outgoing e-mail (SMTP) server names? SYMPTOM: ISP E-mail servers cwmx.com smtp.mymmode.com E-mail FIX: Outgoing Servers AT&T will provide support for sending E-mail using AT&T owned and operated outgoing server addresses: Former AT&T Wireless customers use "smtp.mymmode.com" (Standard POP/IMAP compatible via port 25 with no SSL.) AT&T customers use "cwmx.com" (Standard POP/IMAP compatible via port 25 with no SSL.) The configuration and use of any other outgoing server address will not be supported due to several factors including, but not limited to, the inability for the outgoing server to authenticate users (whether by IP or username/password) that are not directly connected to that Internet Service Providers network. This is mainly done to prevent unsolicited users from sending SPAM via the ISPs servers. "

So what would i use? cwmx.com?

thats the one

ps since ive been so helpful, how do u feel about folding for the NCSU F@H team again

1/31/2008 5:01:15 PM

so i just put "cwmx.com" in the outgoing server box? I'll try that.

Yeah i need to start folding again. I did it all summer because i worked 8hours/day. I just seem to be using my computer all the time now. I'll try it out again and see how it incorporates into my daily computer use.

i set my outgoing server to cwmx.com on port 25 w/ no auth and it just stalls on the send like its trying to sned but its not going anywhere..... does that server work for Edge only or can I use it from any wireless connection as well???
