Gmail POP vs Pocket Outlook (outgoing) HELP!

I have an SX66, and I have no idea why I can't send any outgoing e-mails through gmail's SMTP. I've tried a multitude of different settings (there aren't that many permutations), and none have given me much luck.
Will conduct further testing. In the meantime, if anyone's got any insight, or have it verified and working, please let me know.
I've heard that there's a registry tweak that may have turned off SSL for connections outgoing, which may be why I'm unable to send (without SSL it wouldn't work). I bought the phone used, so I don't know (the rom and radio's like way upgraded, though, 1.4 or something).

Works perfectly via Wifi/GPRS on my O2 XDA iis as per

Help Newb with Softbank SMS.

Hi all,
I have read through some threads and performed a few searches. Everything in regards to this seems to hover around MMS. I dont really care for that but do need to SMS. As I am a phone newb could someone tell me with the softbank setup would I still use MMSLite for doing SMS after slapping on one of the new WM6 ROMS?
Or, can I just dump a station setting somewhere in WM6 for Softbank that will allow me to do SMS.
Thanks,

I to use an X01HT on Softbank and have tried almost all of the WM6 ROMs and SMS works normally. You don't need to do anything special or load anything extra it just works.

Correct, SMS just works. Just pop in your SIM and that's all you need. MMS is a different story.

Thanks guys,
I worked it out now. I was not aware that Softbank could only send SMS to other vodafone/softbank users. It seems we cant send to anyone else on docomo etc. Well, at least I get an error when I try to send an SMS to anyone else on another network. How stupid is that.
Does phone to phone email work? What I mean is I used to be with vodafone and had one of their email addies for my mobile, kind of like push email I suppose. Is Softbank doing the same thing and does it work after flashing or are we stuck with just SMSing to mobile numbers on our network.
Thanks again,

Japanese telco companies are not really friendly, and tend to jealously hold onto the features/etc on their networks, so they will not design their systems to allow cross carrier SMS... it would save you too much money.
Sending SMS's to carriers abroad from Sotbank phones work, but be prepared to spend about 100 yen per message (outgoing or incoming).
Also, the "normal" mail that you were sending was MMS, so you would need to get a hold of MMSlite or the setting for Softbank MMS to get it up and running. I personally use my Gmail and a push-mail account from Mail2Web instead... it cost me $2 a month for the pushmail, but it allows you to sync you calendar, contacts, task as well (works as a backup) so it is worth it to be able to change phones, phone numbers, carrier, etc without changing my e-mail or losing my data! Also, I can check any big message/attachments on Gmail. Works out pretty well.

SOLUTION: How to disable the Xpress Mail Warning about Roaming

To those of you who are experiencing the annoying warning message about Roaming Charges when manually trying to retrieve Xpress Mail, here is the solution:
Add this to your registry:
Code:
Key: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings\ShowRoamWarning
Value: DWORD:0
I don't know if you need to, but I powered down, waited 10 seconds, and powered back up after making the change. Worked flawlessly!
I got this little tidbit from the nice folks at SEVEN, who produce Cingular's Xpress Mail application.
Now, I don't know two things about this, so use it at your own discretion...
1) This might (and probably DOES) blanketly turn off all warnings about roaming ... even if you REALLY ARE ROAMING. So if your plan doesn't include free roaming, you might not wish to make the change
2) It might also blanketly turn off the warning message for any other email type, not just Xpress Mail. I do not get the warning for my other accounts, so I am not sure of the behavior in regard to this.​Anyway, another minor annoyance out of the way for me. Hope I've made some other people here smile today as well.
-pvs

that worked like a champ! to think such a simple solution evaded us all so long thanks again!

Worked great... Thank you for getting the fix... No more warnings

I imagine this is the same flag to use for pop mail in general (I'm using outlook to retrieve mail).
One question: Does anyone know if this affects just the alert and still limits the email retrieval when it thinks you're roaming?
---
Update: The answer to my question is that the phone still things I'm roaming and doesn't automatically download emails, but at least when I do manually retrieve emails, I don't get prompted to proceed while roaming.

SMS Service

Any One know how to use sms service ???

I'm biting my tongue and resisting the temptation to use humourous yet insulting comments as it's obvious you mean something slightly more complicated than sending a text message (at least I hope it is for your sake ).
So, before my tongue starts bleeding, could you explain a little more what it is you need help with?
Smiffy

I am wondering too, how to use the SMS service. I am using Kin0kin 1.30b Full now, and there is SMS Service setting in connections setting. The options are GPRS, GSM, GSM Preferred, GPRS Preferred. As far as I know, I can send SMS via GPRS if I have account in SMS provider such as SMSbug, SMS777 etc (although I can't make it work, even using IPSMS posted in hacking and development forum). My own questions is
Is it possible to use SMS via GPRS without having smsbug account or others? if yes, how to set it? If not, why the ROM has such kind of setting option?

[Q] A way to disable HTML in stock Froyo email app for exchange?

I have searched high and low, and have found many keyword similar issues, but none that address the issue I am having.
Sprint pushed out froyo to my Epic last week, and that is largely fine, however, there was apparently a change made to the stock Email app that I use for connection to my corporate email, which is Zimbra, for better or worse.
Since the update, the stock email client looks like it is using HTML for formatting, as messages sent from my phone are littered with line break tags (br).
Does anyone know a setting to simply have the stock email client send plaintext, rather than HTML?
I am well aware of alternate email clients, and may wind up switching back to touchdown, but I am trying really hard to make the stock client work successfully. It seems to me that disabling HTML for outgoing messages should be something fairly simple, and hopefully something I am just overlooking.

Ditto, albeit with Exchange corporate email
HTML tags have appeared in outbound email - initiated from my Epic 4G. Can't find how to alter this. (You are not alone.) Just began yesterday. I don't have a solution.

We have users of the Epic that are experiencing the exact same issue and it's not going to fly. Have you found a fix for this yet?
