I just bought a motorola V551. I love the phone, but am having problems setting up the email. I have gone back and forth with cingular and aol and neither have been able to help. I believe my problem lies with the server settings (I've tried both the POP3 and SMTP settings).
Second, I am having trouble getting connected to AIM. I have an AIM screenname and such, and I can send messages to the phone and then reply, but I cannot review the buddy list, etc.
I am able to connect to the web and the Yahoo programs (yahoo mail and messaging), but I am an AOL user and would like to be able to use that feature.
Please help!

Thanks.

I had the same problem and called technical support. They helped me fix it.
This is what I had to do:
Go to Messages->Email Msgs
Hit menu key and scroll to Email Msg Setup
I had to change the ISP settings->Connection type from 'CSD' to 'GPRS'.
I also had to fill out all the fields in Email Msg Setup, including Name and Return address.
Then it worked for me.

I called Cingular and the tech support person I spoke to said "these settings are provided by the email provider" (not Cingular). We don't support...." Cingular is providing uneven service.
Can you provide a complete list? Thanks!

goto email setup >>>change your connection type From CSD to Gprs.
2.APN Address should be : isp.cingular
3. User name: ISP@CINGULARGPRS.COM
4. PASSWORD: CINGULAR1
5. DNS IP: 0.0.0.0
ISP SETTINGS: GPRS
EMAIL PROVIDER: Custom
Protocal: POP3
User ID: you@yourisp.com
Password: yourpassword
Sending host: photo.mycingular.com
the rest of the fields are your isp info fields
Make sure you have the multimedia works package put on the phone and a APN Data Plan. Other wise it will not work anyway.

Any difference between isp.cingular + isp@cingulargprs.com versus wap.cingular + wap@cingulargprs.com ? They both seem to work for email.
Thanks.

Does anyone know if these settings still work? I've tried both isp.cingular/ISP@CINGULARGPRS.COM & wap.cingular/WAP@CINGULARGRPS.COM combinations and neither work. I get an unable to connect message.
I have no problems connecting to AIM.
