must be a small error but i cant get my friends 6682 setup with gmail and the stock email proggie. the security taps or setting are different and so far it just hangs while waiting to connect.

I set it last night and it worked fine for me, although I hate the fact that I cannot delete the headers from the phone (so I landed up deleting the whole thing

)

Anyways, here are the Gmail settings for Nokia 6682:
1) Make sure POP is enabled on your Gmail account online.
2) Goto Messaging->Settings->Email->Mailboxes
3) Create a new mailbox Gmail (or whatever you like to call it)
4) Goto Mailbox Settings
5) Choose Access Point as Medianet (or whatever you use for your internet connection)
6) Enter your email under My email addr
7) Outgoing - cwmx.com (I dont think cingular wants you to use smtp.gmail.com, but you can try)
8) Send message - its your choice
9) Username - [your_gmail_id]@gmail.com
10) password - u can leave it blank and enter everytime if you like
11) Incoming mail - pop.gmail.com
12) Type - POP3
13) Ports - 993/995
14) APOP - off
15) Almost done, go back and enter the rest of your preferences including your name under User Settings and Auto retrieval

You are all set, now you should be able to gmail

No data in Madison. I was only there a short time and took 1 call, that'd be it!

hey a thousand thanks SunnyE, those settings work! i wish my 6620 had email notification....

Hmm . . . Thanks for the settings! i tried that, and when I had it set to POP and enable all mail, then my inbox had every msg i had, but when i set it up for only from now on, i didn't get any of the new messages i sent myself as a test. anyone know why? i don't want to have all my old messages on my phone, but only want to get new ones .. .

I put these settings in mine and it keeps coming back to my username and password that i have stored in there. I do need @gmail on the end of the username right?
