The step by step guide to use Email services on your Sony EricssonW810i with Gmail for DiGi Mobile Phones Malaysia. You need a working GPRS or EDGE Internet connection on your Phone, a Gmail Account set up. goto www.gmail.com if you want one. The Settings DiGi provides, DiGi MMS, DiGi Wap and DiGi Streaming doesn't work well with checking email. You have to create a separate Digi Net account like below which is more reliable. You can also Surf the net with PDA or Notebook thru bluetooth more reliably with Digi Net. You can either use this as a method of emal on your mobile or use Gmail Java. The nice thing about using this method of accessing email is that you can actually get the email addresses from you phonebook. Its cool that you are actually utilizing your phone to its true potential. First, create a new Data account.

Mine is working with my mods and not working without mods. On your phone, navigate to Messaging->Email->Settings->Account settings and select "New account" Enter a name for the account, such as "Gmail" Enter the following settings, Email address: your gmail address Connect using: Select Digi Net Connection Type: POP3 -------------------------------- Incoming server: pop.gmail.com Incoming username: your gmail address Incoming password: your gmail password Download: Headers only or Headers & Text (takes more downloading even when you limit it) Check Interval: off (you can switch it to however frequent you want) -------------------------------- Outgoing server: smtp.gmail.com Outgoing username: your gmail address Outgoing password: your gmail password -------------------------------- Allow connection: Any network Auto connect: grayed out, not supported Your name: your name Signature: leave blank it will be same as you google one. Encryption: Incoming: SSL, Outgoing: SSL Incoming port: 995 Outgoing port: 465 Download two server certificates:this and this and bluetooth, irda it to your W810i. If thats not available, download the zipped file here. Unzip and send to your phone. The 2 server certificates will identify the server to the phone so that the phone will not prompt you to proceed without identification. Facilitates finding the server. Also facilitates check interval. Step by step at www.gmail.com On your PC: Log in to gmail. Select "Settings" Select "Forwarding and POP" Change "POP Download" to "Enable POP only for mail that arrives from now on". If you enable POP for all mail, you're going to get everything on the Gmail account since you started.. You should now be able to both send and receive email from your phone. Try it!
