If you already have a Yahoo! Mail Plus or Hotmail Plus account
that is currently set up as an IMAP account, check with your
wireless service provider to see if they support IMAP accounts for
your mail service. If not, change the Yahoo! Mail Plus or Hotmail
Plus account to a POP account online and then set up the account
again in your smartphone's Email app (see
automatic setup
fails).
Instead of upgrading, access your free accounts using your
smartphone's Web app. You cannot access these accounts in the
Email app.
Make sure your email provider, ISP or wireless service provider allows
you to access email on a smartphone via POP or IMAP. (Some
providers do not offer this option at all; other providers require an
upgrade for you to access email on a smartphone.)
Email provider settings may change. If your email account was working
but you are currently experiencing problems, check with your email
provider to find out whether any of the account settings have changed.
You may need to manually change some email settings on your
smartphone (see

Make sure that your data connection to your mail server or email
service provider has not been interrupted (see

Short periods of time when email is unavailable are common, due to
server problems or poor wireless coverage. If you have problems
sending or receiving mail for an extended period of time, check with
your ISP or email service provider to verify that the service is working
properly, and check with your wireless service provider for outage
information in your area. Tap the mail header in your account Inbox to
see the last time the account was updated.

If you are able to receive email messages but cannot send them, try the
following:
Turn on authentication (see
Set up email when automatic setup
Many service providers require authenticated access or ESMTP, to use
their SMTP servers for outgoing mail.
Turn off Wi-Fi if you are connected to a Wi-Fi network (see
on/off). This allows your smartphone to send email over the phone
network instead. Some Wi-Fi networks prevent outgoing mail messages.
Confirm the port number for the outgoing mail server. Many ISPs require
a specific port number, and that number may differ from the default port
number.
Enter the name of a different outgoing mail server for sending mail (see
Set up email when automatic setup
companies, require that you have an Internet connection to their
network to send email through their servers. In this case, you can almost
always receive email from these accounts, but if you want to send
email, you must send it through another server. Check with your email
service provider for the correct outgoing mail server name.
