looking for help syncing vodafone Iphone 3GS to ntlworld e-mails

DaveG247

Hi all,

Just got an iphone 3gs and wondered if any one could help me setting it up so I could receive my ntlworld (via virgin media) e-mails

I currently have it set to pop (not sure what the difference is between this and imap)

Pop account info

Name - My name
Address - Name.surname@ntlworld.com
Description - my e-mails

Incoming Mail Sever

Host Name - mail.vodafone.net
user name - my e-mail address again
Password - the one I use to access my account on ntl

Outgoing mail sever
Smtp - smtp.vodafone.net

If it matters use SSL is off and the server port is 25

Any help would be greatly appreciated

According to Apple, your incoming mail server should be mail.virgin.net.

Right changed that and now says cannot get mail, the connection to the sever "mail.virgin.net" failed

OK, try these settings:

Encantador

This works for me.

Pop account info

Name - My name
Address - [EMAIL="Name.surname@ntlworld.com"]Name.surname@ntlworld.com[/EMAIL]
Description - [EMAIL="Name.surname@ntlworld.com"]Name.surname@ntlworld.com[/EMAIL]

Incoming Mail Sever

Host Name - pop.ntlworld.com
user name - Name.Surname
Password - the one I use to access my account on ntl

Mine is on O2, not sure if that would make any difference.
