View Full Version : VersaMail and .Mac Email (Problem Sending/Replying w/ 700p)

I can check my .Mac email just fine, but whenever I try to send/reply I get an error that says, "The server did not recognize your username and/or password. Please check and try again." Obviously I've checked my UN and PW. Plus, I get all my incoming email just fine, it's only sending email that's a problem.

My settings:
- Mail Service: Apple.Mac
- Protocol: IMAP
- Username: my un
- Password: my pw
- Email address: my mac.com email address
- Incoming Mail Server: mail.mac.com
- Outgoing Mail Server: smtp.mac.com

Advanced Settings - Incoming Server Settings:
- Port Number: 143
- Use Secure Connection (SSL) is NOT checked

Advanced Settings - Outgoing Server Settings:
- Port Number: 25
- Use Secure Connection (SSL) is NOT checked
- Use authentication (ESMTP) IS checked
- UN and PW are correct

Anyone have this same problem and know how to fix it?

Did you find a solution to this? I have been having the same problem!
Any help would be appreciated.

It looks like you need to change the outgoing server to smtp.sprintpcs.com and use your sprintpcs user name and password. There are a lot of companies that will allow you to RECEIVE email through their servers on a mobile device but, in an effort to prevent spam, will not allow you to SEND from your mobile device through their servers. The way around this is to set your outgoing server to sprintpcs settings.

If you're not sure you have a working sprintpcs email user name and password, call tech support and we can check it out. If you don't have one, we will create one for you. If you forgot your password, we can reset it for you.
