cPanel email on iPod Touch.

[loserWILL]

I have been setting up my cPanel email ([email protected]) up and I have the ingoing part all fine, it receives mail and all - but the outgoing isn't working.

Here's how cPanel tells me to set it up:
Mail Server Username: will+kolzy.com
Incoming Mail Server: mail.kolzy.com
Outgoing Mail Server: mail.kolzy.com (server requires authentication)
Supported Incoming Mail Protocols: POP3, POP3S (SSL/TLS), IMAP, IMAPS (SSL/TLS)
Supported Outgoing Mail Protocols: SMTP, SMTPS (SSL/TLS)

Has anyone setup their cPanel on their iPod touch? If so can you tell me how? +rep

[DaveTaylor]

use these settings, it got confusing for me but I worked it out.
POP
income: mail.server.com (server your site obviously)
outgoing: mail.server.com
login: [email protected]
password: obviously

when it asks do want to use ssl go stop/cancel etc
and then readd it again it will ask you if you 100% want to do it just click yes/accept and it will work

[loserWILL]

Do I use SSL for the ingoing too? Or no SSL for outgoing and ingoing?

EDIT: I added it, then it said POP certificate not found, continue anyway? I clicked yeah and now it's verifying POP information (been verifying for like 5 minutes)

[DaveTaylor]

You don't want to verify it and no SSL

If you feel hard and it supports it, use imap.yourserver.com for incoming and smtp.yourserver.com for outgoing, it's how i get my aol email :8

You still need to do the same concept as the SMTP for some reason it likes to verify any cPanel email

[loserWILL]

Dave you have to verify the POP information, otherwise the account doesn't setup.

[DaveTaylor]

It does, you have to just say no to verify and go create again

[loserWILL]

Alright, well now it can't even get the mail nor send it.

[DaveTaylor]

Give it time for the first time, did for me, and then it works fine after, first time took about 2-3 minutes.

[loserWILL]

It takes 2-3 minutes for something to send the first time?

[DaveTaylor]

For me it did yes, as you dont verify it it's slower but once it's done it once it's fine

[loserWILL]

It failed sending. I got one of those mail delivery notices.

[DaveTaylor]

It failed to be sent to them because the email doesn't exist or did you get an alert to say it didnt send ?

[loserWILL]

I got an error saying it didn't send. The email was correct.

Hmm thats odd as it worked fine for me...

[loserWILL]

Whats the serve port for outgoing?

[DaveTaylor]

25....... go to advanced and try using SSL see what it does, might work.

[loserWILL]

25, are you sure? As it was a different port on my settings. But 25 doesn't work anyway.

[DaveTaylor]

Hmm this is odd, like I said try use SSL and see if it decides to work

[loserWILL]

Weird, is it possible for you to set me up a temporary email on your cPanel? As if it works then it's my host, if it doesn't work then it's my iPod. You can delete the email after I decide the verdict.

I just did the thing where you cancel etc... like Dave did and mine works?

[loserWILL]

Then I suppose it's my cPanel. That sucks.

[DaveTaylor]

Sorry to hear, you can buy hosting off us if you want :P

[loserWILL]

Heh, I would but I don't have the money for it right now.

[DaveTaylor]
