Setting up a mailbox

I have been trying to Define a mailbox on my N82. (Menu-->Messaging-->Mailbox)

I managed to do this very easily on my previous N82 (silver)

I now have a Black N82 and can not seem to get this right.

I don't know what I'm supposed to fill i as my incoming mail server and the outgoing mail server.

I think the two values should be the same.

I feel very stupid for not being abel to do this because it was working perfectly on the previous phone.

By the way I have a gmail account.

Incomming and outgoing mail servers are not nessicarily the same,

The settings should be available from your email provider (gmail)

Re: Setting up a mailbox

i think the email settings you require are...

 

Incoming

    mail server: imap.gmail.com

    mailbox type: imap

    security ssl/tls

 

Outgoing

    mail server: smtp.gmail.com

    mailbox type: imap

    security: starttls

 

the mailbox i'm using is a googlemail one and i've just translated it to gmail, so the above may not work.
