K550 and gmail, all in one
Hi there!
Today I’ve been dealing with my mobile phone Sony Ericsson K550 (by Movistar Chile) to get my gmail mail account working, after an hour I had success :)
Well, I’ll show you the steps that I carried out…
- Go to Messaging ->Email -> Settings -> New Account.
- Account Name: Anytext that help you indentify your account. In my case, I put “brange”.
- Email Alert: Message Alert 1.
- Connect Using: WAP MOVISTAR
- Email Address: my_user_name@gmail.com
- Connection Type: IMAP4
- Incomming Server: imap.gmail.com
- Username: my_user_name@gmail.com
- Password: ********* (My password)
- Outgoing Server: smtp.gmail.com
- Advanced Setting:
- Your Name: Alvaro Brange
- Signature: Enviado desde un teléfono móvil. (I have in Spanish this message)
- Download S&R: Up to size limit
- Check Interval: 4 h
- Push email: Off
- Allow connection: Home Network
- Copy Outgoing: Off
- Encriptation: Incomming Server: SSL, Outgoing Server: TLS
- Outg Username: my_user_name@gmail.com
- Outg Password: **** (My gmail password)
- Incomming Port: 993
- Outgoing Port: 587
If you have some issues when try to send mail from your phone, maybe is because you need install a certificate. You have 2 choice.
- Download it directly from you mobile. I did it. Go to Internet and enter a address: http://www.verisign.com/cgi-bin/support/rootcert/getrootcert.cer
- Download the file in your PC and then, transfer it to your phone and install/open it.
