Sounds like the server setting are not right for mobile email. You should check the Microsoft Outlook FAQs pages for the correct server settings for android devices.

Congratulations on your new phones,G.S.B.!

As Ann154 mentioned, it seems as though there may be a problem with the server settings. You would need to confirm it with the email provider. Is it a personal or corporate email account?

Smartphones can be a learning experience for sure! Check out our free Wireless Workshop http://bit.ly/oc2kd5.

Thanks for the update G.S.B. Is this a Microsoft Exchange account or what type of email? Send yourself and email from the device to see if it sends and receives. If you haven't already, make sure to reboot. For Verizon Cloud, please clear your Cache http://vz.to/1atzeTr.

Currently I am using Microsoft Exchange with a Hotmail server address found on a website. It is an Outlook account. I tried my email server settings got cannot connect to server, tried outlook.com app same thing. The Hotmail address got me halfway in that I can send but not receive email. I have tried manually getting emails, tried push no emails. I do all of my email on computer but would like access to it if the need ever arose. My g-mail works fine but is not my main email. As for cloud after reading the negative reviews I am no longer interested. Had I read the reviews I would not backed up my old phones to cloud. It is Junk.
