How To Set Up Shaw Mail on Iphone 4S

Hi Everyone!

I have an iphone 4s and I'm trying to set up my shaw email on my phone.

I have it set up as a POP server and I can recieve emails, but cannot send or reply.

Im connected directley to 3G, and have wifi disabled.

My Incoming is set to pop.shaw.ca and my outgoing os shawmail.cg.shawcable.net

My outgoing port is set to 25 with SSL disabled and I still get the error message "Sender email rejected by server"

Can Anyone Help Me Please?!?!?!

iPhone 4S, iOS 5.0.1

As I read Shaw's instructions, if you live near Calgary, you should be using shawmail.cg.shawcable.net as both the Pop3 and the SMPT server.

http://www.shaw.ca/Support/Internet/Email/Email-Setup/Use-Email-Client/

Server Lookup Tool

Find your incoming and outgoing server name (fully qualified server name, or FQDN) by selecting the city nearest you in the dropdown menu below. Enter the server name shown as the incoming and outgoing server names (POP3 and SMTP servers).

But I am also seeing that Shaw has what they are calling Webmail 2 that you can activate on your account and then they give instructions for configuring your iPhone using MS Exchange.

I switched the the incoming to match the outgoing but still no luck. Also I tried to activate webmail 2.0 on my phone but it said email could no be verified. Ive had this email for atleast five years and really dont want to change it. Any input would be great, Thanks!

Have you first signed up for Webmail 2.0 in your Shaw account? There is a link to confirm that you have the sevice or to sign up in the second link above.

Follow these steps Bradenwebb and it will work for you .

since your incoming email is working we are going to tweek the outgoing mail server settings.

host name: mail.shaw.ca

user name: your email account name without the @shaw.ca

password: your password

Use SSL: turned off

Authentication: set it to password

Server port is 587

Have a great day😎
