I am able to login and the folders are all synced up yet there is no mail and I cannot send out emails using yahoo email as a premium email account.
Works if it is automatically setup as POP account though.
I have the basic Yahoo email account, but I am able to put it in my phone's email program with IMAP settings.
Manually setup email.
Username: (full email address)
Password: (password)
Incoming Server: imap.mail.yahoo.com
Port: 993 SSL (Accept all Certificates)
Outgoing Server: smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com
Port: 993 Port: 465 SSL (Accept all Certificates)

hm, I don't get push notifications unlike if I use premium samsung social hub though...and there's a problem, I only get emails up to mid october. The newer emails do not load at all!
You wont get push, as that is only for Exchange accounts (like gmail).
Why go through the Samsung Social Hub? Have you tried the default email program?
I actually use Enhanced Email app, just because at the time the standard email app only synced the up to the previous 30 days. Although that may have changed.

Samsung social hub, the email client at least, gives Push for all emails if set as premium account...hotmail, gmail etc. until yahoo stopped working...
well at least I think it's push under the premium account since I can't set the frequency for it to sync
and today it works! Weird stuff

Unfortunately that doesn't work. It's asking for Protocol imap server, server port??? help pls
The error message i get is as follows "Cannot connect to the mail server to verify your account infor. Your server is not responding"
Bloody hotmail!!!
My girlfriend has just got a hero and in the shop I was saying "yeah, you'll be able to collect your hotmail email fine"
However, it appears that you need to upgrade to a hotmail plus account for £14.99 per year to let you collect hotmail emails via pop3 or imap. While that's not a lot, I didnt want to have to pay it if I dont have to.
So I set up email forwarding from her hotmail account to the google account setup on her Hero.
Normally, you cant forward emails from hotmail to non-hotmail or microsoft hosted domains without having the Hotmail plus account
Then I stumbled accross this at android community forums, posted by somone called 71CH so credit goes to them.
* Login to your Hotmail account
* Go to options
* Go to "Mobile Alerts for new messages" under the "Customize your mail" heading
* Type in your mobile phone number
* You'll then receive a text message with a pin number
* Type in the pin number
* Then select the option telling Hotmail Not to send you any text messages
* Go back to options and click on "Forward mail to another e-mail account"
* You'll now see that the restrictions for forwarding are now gone
* You can forward to any account you please.

I've just done this 10mins ago and it is working fine
try this setting..not sure if it's gonna work..or just forward your email to a gmail account
POP server: pop3.live.com
POP SSL required? Yes
User name: Your Windows Live ID, for example [email protected]
Password: The password you usually use to sign in to Hotmail or Windows Live
SMTP server: smtp.live.com
Authentication required? Yes (this matches your POP username and password)
TLS/SSL required? Yes
Thanks will give that a try
i think a couple of months back, POP3 access was enabled on all hotmail accounts.
That's the same work around for the iPhone the only problem is when you sign into hotmail on the web the emails come up as not viewed.

HTC - Hotmail
I've got Hotmail to send emails to my phone, no probs.
But, my phone won't send hotmail emails out, can someone pls tell me how to resolve all this..?
just bough this fone,love it so far,even better than my wife's iphone 3GS.but 1 think with the IP i can setup YAHOO MAIL very easy,but i use email features in my HERO it doesnt work,can u guys show me how?thanks
http://www.htc.com/hero/m/en/howtos/howto_email.html
Thats the way i did for my HERO but no luck,just wonder,i dont pay POP3 features for my email,but IPHONE i can access it,but with HERO i cant?can u guys help me out?
You sure you have the right settings?
* Incoming Mail (POP3) Server: pop3.mail.yahoo.com (Use SSL, port: 995)
* Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com (Use SSL, port: 465, use authentication)
* Account Name/Login Name: Your Yahoo! Mail ID (your email address without the “@yahoo.com”)
* Email Address: Your Yahoo! Mail address (e.g., [email protected])
* Password: Your Yahoo! Mail password
Also did you enable "Web & POP Access" in you Yahoo control panel?
You have to pay £10 a year for Yahoo 'plus' in order to get POP access to it
If you have an email address @yahoo.co.uk, then you can access with pop without the charge.
@justbabu I have a @yahoo.co.uk email address. You used to be able to get POP access if you accepted themed adverts from yahoo and could simply deselect all the categories to get pop access without adverts. They stopped this about a year and a half ago and since then you have to pay for POP as per http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/ma...pop-35.html;_ylt=AunWCAYq.dqicM1lFIB2kr8KzyN4
I tried the advert to set yahoo mail up on your mobile they then give you specific settings for you to use and send you an SMS for activation.
Look for the advert when you log into yahoo email.

This appears to be a bad idea, a very bad idea as all sent emails are sent from your new account that is your mobile number. Which may not be that good if sending emails to people you do not know.

hi all,
just got my grubby hands on an S2 yesterday. was setting up my email accounts and realised that i can only set up 1 account. i have another account, does anyone know how i can get round setting up the second account.
thanks in advance...
I set up a gmail account, a hotmail account and 2 yahoo accounts. Since it has accepted 2 yahoo accounts, i don't see why it wouldn't accept 2 hotmail accounts.
oh, that's a lot of accounts...how do you get round doing it...i'm a newbie on android and can't figure how to create another email account...
I use default email client from Samsung, it's called Social Hub. There you can set all types of emails. If you don't like it, you can download an email client from the market, K9 or others.
Sent from out of space using Thuraya 2 satellite !
I set up 2 hotmail accounts on the standard email client. Both were set up as exchange accounts.
I used the standard email app because it is the one you already have. The enhanced email app that I use already has 2 yahoo (IMAP) accounts on it.
To set up hotmail as exchange:
Add an account - Settings -> Accounts -> Add an Account.
Put in your email address ([email protected]) and password, then select Manual.
You have 3 options - POP, IMAP and Exchange; select Exchange.
You will now see 3 boxes, Domain/Username, Password and Server.
Domain/Username: \[email protected] (you will have to add the @hotmail.com)
Password: (just leave it)
Server: m.hotmail.com
Tick the SSL box and then the Next button.
It will then contact the server, then you can set you preferences.
Repeat for the other hotmail account.
Hello Everyone.
I Recently shifted to HTC Sensation XL from Photon 4g.
And i end up getting failure in Adding Yahoo mail acc in it.
Later after hours and Hours of Googling i found out these Steps to get it working with default Mail app.
Incoming:
Protocol IMAP
Server: htc.imap.mail.yahoo.com
Security Type: SSL
Port: 993
Outgoing
Server: htc.smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Security Type: SSL
Port: 465
Note: Yahoo mail App is available in market. It works just fine, but i feel ICS Mail app is lot better than Yahoo mail app.
Note: As my device is HTC, i have added htc.imap etc etc in server, if you are using different make. Remove HTC and give a try..
Hope This helps someone
Ive been using Yahoo Mail in Thunderbird on my desktop for a few years. I have the same setup except without the htc in front of the server addresses. Not sure what that does different maybe it delivers the messages in a more mobile friendly format?
Got my S3 yesterday and tried to set up my hotmail using MS exchange to get push email, it worked but only the text comes through. Anyway to set it so that images and layout are loaded also?
U used these settigns right?
Domain: [email protected]
Exchange Server: m.hotmail.com
SSL: enabled
Password: password
Also try in Hotmail-Settigns-Hotmail-Show images & Auto Download Attachments & Size to retrieve email (all)

Using MS Exchange, only Exchange Server 2007+ supports HTML. If you are using Exchange Server 2003, you won't be able to access HTML mail.

That's what I've got it set too. I have just noticed that at the bottom of each message is a "Load more details" button that loads the HTML versions, not sure why this isn't automatic though?
