Hi Guys,

Sorry to post on here, but there is more traffic so might get an answer...

Has anyone been able to link their Orange Email account to their iPhone? I'm have no luck what so ever!

Cheers

Sunil

Hi,

Thanks for the reply, I am trying to connect my orange.net account to the iPhone.

Anyone got an Ejit's guide?

Cheers

Sunil

I may be missing the point here but...go to

-Settings option
-Mail, Contact, Calenders option

Under the accounts option there is an add account option.

Thats how I have added all my email addresses to my Iphone.

To whom it may concern,

I finally solved it. I had a mad tinkering half hour, and I finally, FINALLY worked it out. Here are those glorious settings for Apple's 'Mail' client for anyone who was as pi**ed off as me:

Account type: POP3
Incoming server: pop.orange.net
Incoming username: your mobile number
Incoming password: your email password*
Outgoing server: smtp.orange.net
Outgoing password: your mobile number @orange.net (AHA!)
Outgoing password: same as incoming password

  • Your email password is different from your online account login password. It can be found in the email account options section of your webmail ('options' in the bottom left of the screen, and then 'email account.')
Basically, they've changed the username for the outgoing server from just your phone number to your phone number @orange.net (i.e. 07777777777@orange.net) and not told anyone. Jerks. So there you have it. Works like a charm now!
Click - any help?
