PDA Internet POP account problem

[PJSmith69]

I can't seem to get my internet POP account (NetZero) to work with my PDA (HP IPAQ 2215). I am accessing the internet via a wireless LAN card and a wireless router. I can access the internet just fine, but if I try to send an email via my POP account I get an error. I know I have the outgoing and incomming server info correct. The PDA keeps telling me the email address I'm sending to is incorrect. I've tried numerous address and they all kill, but I know there valid. Any help would be great.

What DO you have for the incoming and outgoing server? I thought NetZero only offered web-based e-mail service (but it's been awhile since I checked).

I have a wireless router hooked up to a cable modem. So I don't really have a server persay. This is how I connect my PDA to the internet. But each time I try and send an email I keep getting this error, "Invalid message recipients" and it keeps telling me it's from the system admin.

I have the incomming mail set to pop.netzero.com
I have the outgoing mail set to smtp.netzero.com


I receive email just fine, but I keep getting the error each time I try to send an email.

Okay, servers look good. I assume you've verified that you can successfully send e-mail from Outlook Express or some other sort of e-mail client on your desktop machine...

I'll look around and see if I can finda nything else.

That's it!!! I don't have Outlook Express setup on my desk top. Thanks for the info. I know how to correct the issue now.


Do you know if they have an Outlook Express application for PDAs??

 

[jpm121]

PocketPC software (like IPAQs and stuff) comes with Pocket Outlook, which is very close to regular Outlook.

Did you expressly un-install Outlook Express? It comes installed by default, is part of Internet Explorer, and isn't easy to uninstall in the first place.

I didn't unistall it. After I configed my outlook express on my desk top I realized I already had the appication on my PDA. I still have a problem however. I still can't email via my POP account or PDA. I keep getting this error

"The message could not be sent because one of the recipients was rejected by the server. The rejected e-mail address was. Subject 'test', Account: 'Netzero',
Server: 'smtp.netzero.com', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '553 sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts (#5.7.1)', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 553, Error Number: 0x800CCC79"


every time I try to send an email...

Through a simple search on netzero's website, I have found this page:

http://www.netzero.net/support/errors/error553.html

This should be of some help.

Thanks for all your help. And I figured the problem out. My cable modem provider doesn't allow any out going emails via a SMTP server but their own.

So I went ahead and setup my incomming POP info for netzero and my outgoing using my Cable company's SMTP server and it works just great!!

Again thanks for all your help!!!

I have a problem once again. I had to reconfig my PDA and once again it can't send email via my POP account. But my problem is different now. I keep getting the following error "The Message could not be sent. Check that you have network coverage and that your account information is correct. Then try sending again." I know I have my outgoing mail configured correctly!! And all my other PCs can send mail just fine via outlook; so I'm not sure why my PDA is not working. Any help would be great...
