Guest xanadu Posted March 28, 2003 Report Posted March 28, 2003 Does anyone know if AOL internet email works on the SPV, and what the settings are ?
Guest Syvwlch Posted March 28, 2003 Report Posted March 28, 2003 I no longuer have an account... Have you tried their website? No reason why it shouldn't work. As for POP3 access, so that you get the mail in Outlook, i don't think AOL offer that, but I'm not sure. If they don't, then only the webmail will work.
Guest xanadu Posted March 28, 2003 Report Posted March 28, 2003 I don't have an AOL account either, but I have found out that you can access AOL email via www.aol.co.uk but I don't know if this works on the SPV. I was asked this question by someone that was thinking of buying an SPV.
Guest v1nn1e Posted March 28, 2003 Report Posted March 28, 2003 Aol doesnt have this feature. I used Aol. I wanted to use normal dial up instead of the aol browser dialler, but it was not possible. So this would mean that the email is not POP3.
Guest Syvwlch Posted March 29, 2003 Report Posted March 29, 2003 I have found out that you can access AOL email via www.aol.co.uk.Yes, I used to use www.aol.com for webmail but as it had no spam filter, gave up on it. I see no reason why their webmail should not work... but to be sure, why don't they g try it in a store? It's justbrowsing in'it?
Guest florin_m Posted March 29, 2003 Report Posted March 29, 2003 Not working on spv :lol: geting stuck after log in ;)
Guest Syvwlch Posted March 29, 2003 Report Posted March 29, 2003 Hi Florin! Have you tried with a different device profile with WebWapSelect?
Guest skanna Posted March 29, 2003 Report Posted March 29, 2003 AOL email used to work, via a WAP link copied from my old phone. I guess the wapsite was accessed through GPRS, and AOL Mobile was available as a text based service only. This included email, buddy list, bookmarks etc. But since the UK update, I cannot access via the Wapsite anymore. It just says the site is not available. I tried on my old phone and it still works fine. But not on the SPV. Normal login from AOL.co.uk fails after login so now AOL email cannot be accessed. I have just decerted my phone via orange and I will try the WAP program mentioned above.
Guest jhew Posted March 30, 2003 Report Posted March 30, 2003 In AOL goto keyword 'AOL mobile' then click on the 'AOL on your Mobile' button, then 'sign up now'. Follow the steps, and you will be given a link at the end. Just type this link into the spv and voila you'll be able to sign in and check your emails. It's very rudementary, and is basically wap, but it does the trick. Quicker than browsing the website at any rate. Ohh and you can also sign onto your buddy list. BTW make sure you save the link as a favourite, be a b***h to have to type it in everytime :lol:
