Randomly at different locations, times of day, and 3G and WiFi, I get server certificate errors now on GB when sending or replying to emails. It seems to auto correct later, it's just annoying. Any ideas?
I would try doing the following:
- Go into ACCOUNTS, and remove the emal Account.
- Power off phone
- Do a "CLEAR CACHE" procedure (below)
- Power up
- Go into Accounts and re-add the email account (you'll have to put your login info back in of course).
Wiping cache partition- cures many ills and is better to start with this than a (gulp) full Factory Reset.
Ouch. I feel your pain. Did you manually configure the POP & SMTP ports? May have found the issue.
Under outgoing server/advanced settings, I just unchecked verify cert. We'll see what happens.
That happened to me with Froyo, and it happens, on occasion, with GB. I merely tap on retry, and it goes away. Why this happens, I have no idea. It's a minor irritant, so I don't let it bother me. This, by the way, only happens with Hotmail and none of my other accounts. It may be a Microsoft thing, since Hotmail is a Microsoft item. Who knows?
Thanks for all the replies. I researched the issue and it doesn’t seem to be a known issue that is reported to VZW or Motorola. Do you have issues with your data connection in general? Are you able to connect to the browser, apps that connect to the web, etc? If you are able to connect then it sounds like a setting issue with Hotmail/MSN. Please confirm your settings with them. Please repost if the issue persists.
Thank you.
I have seen this under two situations,
1. Low Reception or connection issue
2. After logging into Google on pc and device at same time..
I am having the same issue but with Yahoo email. I haven't received emails since 06-02-2011. I did pull the battery to reset it and that worked one time. Fourteen days without getting my emails. Now I'm getting a connection error. The following error has prevented a successful connection: Unable to connect to motor-android.smtp.mail.yahoo.com. That message just showed up right now.
