Okey doke folks, I recently purchased a Nokia 6230 that has POP3 and IMAP4 support 3rd party email on my phone. Since Cingluar and Bellsouth have ties to one another (Bellsouth Mobility DCS cell service is what became Cingular around here a few years ago), they have a Bellsouth profile pre-set in this phone (minus the specific username/password stuff, of course). So, I filled in all the appropriate values and ... voila ... I can send email from my bellsouth account with this phone but haven't yet been able to get email retrieving to work. All ports/settings/everything appear to be correct but I just can't receive ... only send.
Anyone know of a good place that gives item by item setup instructions for Bellsouth POP settings on a Nokia ? ... I just want to verify that the pre-sets were all correct. I just get a generic "Retrieval failed" message (as opposed to a 'Authentication failed' error I get when settings were incorrect).
Any thoughts from anyone who is sucessfully retrieving the Bellsouth email account through Cingular on Nokia would be appreciated.
