[Q] Stock E-Mail App says "Could not log in" - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Hi. I'm Having a strange problem with yahoo mail on stock e mail app.
Due to my mail address being in ".co.in" domain I have to configure my account manually using IMAP
Now here's the problem,
If i configure my mail while I'm on mobile internet, syncing only works for mobile internet. If I ware to switch to a WiFi network the e mail app put's a notification saying "Could not log in" and asks me to update the password. Switching back to mobile network gets it working again.(Without updating the settings).
Same thing will happen if the the mail account was configured while on WiFi. In that case it would fail to login on mobile network..
Is there any fix for this?

Who is your email provider? any of these: yahoo.com, yahoo.co.uk, or Hotmail. i have the same problem as well.
Yahoo and new hotmail accounts need to be paid for to sync via outlook, those of us who have been syncyng Hotmail for a while (was it oct 2006 or 2005 they stopped - I have a memory like a seive) can still sync.
When you set up the email account how did you do it, who is it with and did you test the settings?
But you could still forward all your Hotmail mails to another free mail provider
(to which you can freely sync to Outlook).
i have the same issue. set up with an IMAP server. it doesnt even try over 3G and works while connected to a pc and uses its connection. suggestions? is this answered elsewhere?
[Edit]: Found on another thread (thanks to Pawel062) to uncheck the proxy info on the Media Net, this resolved the issue for me.

cannot login Gmail app to activate Market

Hi,
After upgraded to 2.1, my X10 cannot login in Gmail app to activate Market. I have tried both 3G and Wifi but no success.
In the Gmail app, after running, it always shows "This could be a temporary problem or your phone may not be provisioned for data services. If it continues, call Customer Care."
Does anyone have a hint ?
thanks

[Q] Troubleshooting with user account in Mail application

Hello,
I have a problem with the Mail application: to use my email account in both wifi with my ISP and my Carrier 3G I use one User for POP server and for SMTP server an another User wich is different.
When I entered the settings for the Pop and SMTP for the verification of the information is correct. Access is enabled.
But when I send an email, I get an error authentication on the SMTP server as if the Mail application using the POP User to connect to the SMTP server.
In the past, there was a checkbox to indicate to use for outgoing mail the same account incoming mails but then I have not found anything similar.
I need to use K9-Mail to manage my emails.
Someone would have a solution to solve my problem with the Mail application?
Thank you in advance

I'm assuming you have internet connection using other applications except Gmail. If this is the case, it could be some sort of permission problem on the gmail app. If you do not know how to set/review permissions in Huawei, you should google it. I (still) do not have the phone to guide you...

My gmail app works fine. Only the email stock app does not work when I try to connect it to the gmail.
Have you enabled pop/imap access on your gmail account? Official gmail app users their own protocol. Other email clients uses pop/imap standard protocols, but you need to have them activated to work. You can set in desktop gmail settings via browser.
I did and my email on the mate 9 works fine. However I found out that one of the wireless network setting for my mate 10 was set to "sim" when I change it to "peap" then my email app works fine. Thanks for your reply.

Hi,
I have similar issue however I cannot even setup the gmail on the native email app. I have an error saying the "username or password is incorrect or pop3/smtp service is disabled"
I googled the issue but couldn't find much useful. The reason I wanted to try to set the emails up because the notification led does not work when I got an email via the Gmail app.
- Anyway the password is correct to the account but I'm using 2 step verification (I tried my yahoo account which doesn't have 2 step verification and I have the same problem)
- The phone is connected to the internet (I try this over wifi)
- I tried other options such as exchange (this took me further setting up the mail server and port but I got a message "cannot connect to server" on both gmail and yahoo account) I tried the "other" option too but I have the same error pop3/smtp service is disabled as mentioned above.
I checked the sim settings as you mentioned above but I couldn't find any settings regarding the "peap". Can you pleas let me know where is that located?
Did you have any of the issue I mentioned above?
Thx in advance

That setting only appears in the wireless settings when I try to connect to a secure network that requires me to provide an identity and a password. To tell you the truth I have a hard time to find that setting myself. In my case I notice that when I try to connect (using wifi) to the secure network of csula and calpoly pomona that require me to provide an identity and password, my mate 10 just skip the steps that I need to provide an identity and a password and try to connect to the network. Obviously it could not. Only in these cases then I see the settings that I can change from "sim" to "peap". Then my email app works. I am sorry that I cannot explain clearer. May be some expert can show you to get to it better.

Thanks for providing the screenshot. Looks like I had a different issue but luckily I managed to solve it however it took me a few hours to read 100s of unrelated forums..
As I mentioned above I am using 2 step verification for google but not yahoo. Looks like both service provider have an option within the settings where "a less secure application access" can be allowed.
This managed to fix my yahoo account but I still had to generate an app access password on my google account as it had 2 step verification. Anyway, its all done thx for your help

I had the same error message and found that I had to change the settings for IMAP and SMTP for the email I was using for example the phone auto filled it as Hotmail server settings when really it's actually outlook settings. because Hotmail changed to outlook.
