Enable IMAP access in Gmail
If you havent already done so,
you have to enable IMAP access
in Gmail, so that you can use the
mail client in your mobile device
to access your email.
1. Go to Settings in Gmail and
select the Forwarding and POP/
IMAP tab:
2. In the IMAP Access section,
select the Enable IMAP under
Status.
Remember to save your changes
Set up the mobile phones
mail client
1. From standby, select
Menu => Messaging =>
Email => Settings.
2. Select New Account and
type a name for your account
(e.g.: My Gmail Account).
3. When you press Ok, you
will be taken to the first set of
settings. Select Connect
Using and select a data
account you have set up in the
phone (If you don t have one, you
will have to set up a data
account with your mobile
operator first. Without a data
connection, you won t be able to
continue).
4. Once the data account is
selected you will be back to the
settings. Now select the next
item, Email Address and
enter your full Gmail address
(including @gmail.com). Press
Ok.
5. Next step is to select
Connection Type. Select
IMAP4 as the connection type.
6. Then change the Incoming
Server options value to
imap.gmail.com. Username
should be your full email
address and set your Gmail
password.
7. Change the Outgoing
server options value to
smtp.gmail.com, and move on
to the Advanced Settings
option.
8. Under Advanced Settings, you
can set your name (how you
want it to appear in mails) and a
signature. Under Download
S&R, I recommend you select
Subjects Only so that you can
check the subject and decide
whether to press the button on
the mail to download it or not.
Check Interval can be used if
you dont want to use Push
email. Setting a check interval
wont keep the phone connected
always. Instead it will check for
mail periodically when the check
interval elapses (This is
recommended if your phone has
battery life problems!).
Turn Push email on if you
want to be notified about
incoming email as it arrives (like
in a BlackBerry!). This option will
not be available at this time. But
it will be available AFTER you
create the account . The only
warning I would give is that it will
drain your battery fast. So if it is
a problem, leave it off and use
the Check Interval option to
an appropriate value.
9. Now select the Encryption
option. You will find two sub
options in it. Select SSL for
Incoming Server option and
select TLS for the Outgoing
Server option. Use the back
button on the phone to come out
of the Encryption settings.
Select the Outgoing
Username next and enter you
full email address (including @
gmail.com). And enter you Gmail
password for Outgoing
Password.
Set the Incoming port to 993
and Outgoing port to 587.
That is the last option under the
Advanced settings section.
Now press the back button to
come to the previous settings
screen. Press the back button
again to come out of the email
settings altogether.
You should get a popup saying:
Account created. Select the
new account if you want to use
it as your active account.
(Note: Hope you remember, I said
that the Push email option
wouldnt be available until the
account is created. Now, either
you should get another popup
sooner or later saying that Push
access can be enabled asking
whether to enable it, or you can
go into the settings again and
turn it on).
To go back to edit any settings
you should follow:
Messaging => Email => Settings
=> (now highlight the account) =>
More => Edit Account.
10. To send and receive email,
come into the email inbox =>
More => Send & Receive. You can
mark mails for deletion. To clear
the emails that were marked
for deletion, you should select
Clear Inbox.
Thats all folks.. enjoy Gmail
through IMAP4, using an old brick.
Hope that helps at least another
Sony Ericsson K800i user!
