Cannot access Gmail through native email app

[liege168]

After setting up access to my Gmail account through the native email tool, when I do a send/receive, I get and error saying:

"Cannot connect with current connection settings. To change your connection settings, tap Settings. etc..."

The only time I can do a successful send/receive is when my X1 is connected to my laptop - then I get all my emails. I have already appplied Windows Mobile 6.1 Hot Fix for Sending POP and IMAP E-mail.

I suspect some settings might be wrong - everything else is working fine. Am even getting 3G in SoCal using AT&T on MediatNet. My settings are as follows:

Access point name: wap.cingular
Domain: <blank>

Proxy Setting
Proxy Server: wireless.cingular.com
HTTP: wireless.cingular.com:80
WAP: <blank>
Secure WAP: <blank>
Socks: localhost:1080

Could anyone help? Thanks in advance.

hmmm strange, I got no problem with my gmail, i can send and receive.
I did not do anything with my settings, I just put in my gmail-account and that's it, it works like a charme on my X1.

My incoming mailserver is:
imap.gmail.com

My outgoing mailserver is:
smtp.gmail.com

And ofcourse put in your password

And that's all there is?? I hope it can help you!!

Thanks guys. I did everything that was suggested. Someone in another forum pointed me to the solution. As it turn out, gmail doesn't work off proxys with AT&T. The automatic setup for AT&T had the proxy checked. All was needed is to take out the proxy and just keep the http settings. Working now!
