Sending emails from my cell phone

Is anyone experiencing issues sending emails through their cell? Since I check my emails quite often on my cell phone, LG G2, I recently (about a month or two) have run into an issue that when I reply it sits in the Outbox and then eventually fails. I keep resending and I can eventually get it to send. I am having this problem from home and work, but I know I was always able to send from both locations in the past. Has Verizon changed something? It's very frustrating because as I said I do use my phone frequently for my email correspondence. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Are you trying to use native Android Email or Verizon's My FiOS app that has email support for @verizon.net accounts? Maybe you can try to login on your laptop and ensure your password is correct.

Andy,

Thanks for the response. I'm not really sure but I don't thnk I'm using Fios. What do you mean by logging in on my computer and making sure my password is correct. I can access my email on my computer and reply without any issues. It's just when I try to reply through my phone.

Are you perhaps a Yahoo email users? For such the userid now requires @verizon.net be added to it. This is not true for those not using the Yahoo email interface.

Othewise just check your email settings

Server settings/ incoming settings

Email address: xxxxx@verizon.net

username: xxxxx (yahoo users use xxxxx@verizon.net)

password: yyyyy

pop3 server: pop.verizon.net (yahoo users use incoming.yahoo.verizon.net)

security type: SSL

port: 995

delete email from server: (your choice) i have mine set to when deleted from phone.

Server setting/outgoing settings

SMTP server: smtp.verizon.net (yahoo users use outgoing.yahoo.verizon.net)

Security type: SSL

Port: 465

Require Signin checked

username: xxxxx (yahoo users use xxxxx@verizon.net)

password: yyyyy

First I am not a Yahoo user

I checked the setting on my phone and this is what it has. I didn't want to change anything in fear I would really screw it up.

Incoming

POP/IMAP server: incoming.verizon.net

Email type POP3

security type: off

port: 110

Outgoing

SMTP server: outgoing.verizon.net

Security type: off

Port: 587

I'm not having problems with my incoming. Just my outgoing. Do you think I should stop by a Verizon store and have them check my settings?

Change the settings to the ones I showed. They are shutting down or have already shut down incoming.verizon.net and outgoing.verizon.net
