When I try to send or reply to e-mail I get connection Error with no hints or explanation :mad:

The first thing would be to double check the settings from your ISP, particularly the port settings and if it needs authentication. I'm guessing that from your descriptiuon that you CAN initiate a message and that the only problem is with a reply?

You also might want to check out an alternative mail client like K-9 or MailDroid.

I can receive e-mails just can't reply.

I am new to androids so any suggestions would be greatly appreicated.

Based on what you're saying it should be working and there is no logical reason why it isn't. I still think you should try with another mail app. I haven't used the stock mail app since December.

MY ISP Rep Just told me This problem made them aware of a problem with 3rd party devices trying to access their server.
Thanks for your response.

Must be a small or new company if they are just now realizing that but at least it's an answer. Better than no answer at all.
