Hi Joe,
After many failures trying to get Eircom on Iphone Paul came to the rescue
as usual so below are his instructions. I use Vodafone on Iphone but was
told it is more difficult to get Eircom to work on phone.
Paul's instructions.
"I got Eircom to work on my Iphone. Below I have given you all the details
of my settings and what to do after making the changes.
(Create the eircom account)
1. Go into settings then scroll down to "Mail" and double tap.
2. Choose "Other" from the resulting list.
3. Choose "Add new mail account".
4. Type in all the usual details of user name, email address and ensure that
"POP" is selected as it usually is anyway.
Now double tap on save and it may throw a wobbler that your user name or
password is incorrect, if so then change the user name to just "first part
of your email address" only and remove the @eircom.net part.Now click on
done and it will ask you if you want to save it even though it might also
say that you might not be able to receive mail with this account. Just go
ahead and save it anyway.
(The advanced settings)
1. Go back into the mail settings and double tap on Eircom.
2. Scroll down to "Advanced" and in here change the "In-Coming port number
too 110"
Important: Also make sure for InComing "SSL" is set to off.
3. Go to "Out-Going server" which is a button and will be marked as
mail1.eircom.net". In here makesure that all "Mail1.eircom.net" servers are
set to on.
When all of the above has been completed test out the system by double
tapping on the "Done button" and it will say something like "Verifying". It
will probably come back with an error message that the server
"Webmail.eircom.net" cannot be reached. Thats okay, just go ahead and close
it back to the main desktop screen of the Iphone. Leave it now till say
"Tomorrow" before testing it out again. The next day go into the mail app on
your IPhone and go to the Eircom account then wait and see if any mails will
appear in the mail window, if so then it works.
Regards,
Noreen M.

Subject: [vip_students] mobile corner
ok, i know it's monday, and it's a dreary wet morning, and to make things
worse i'm having iphone problems, let me elaborate, i've never sent e mails
using my mobile pfone from home, simply because i have two computers here,
but this morning i decided to send an e mail to a friend as i had the phone
beside me and didn't want to boot up the computer just for one e mail, are
you still with me? i correctly put in the e mail address, followed by the
subject, then wrote the message and promptly sent it off, whoops, i got a
message saying "cannot send this message as the server doesn't allow
relaying" my server is eircom, and i have an O2 phone, so am i correct in
saying that eircom won't permit me to send e mails from my phone at home?
has anyone else experienced this problem? if so, how did you overcome it, or
did you? any help will be really appreciated, god bless, travel safely, joe.
