Help Unable to add email acct.

[Smokey Joe]

I have been unable to add my att.net email accts. to my replacement Rez... I go through the set up and it tells me "Cannot connect to the mail server to verify your account information. Your server is not responding." There are some options that I can change... Protocol(set at 'POP', POP server(att.net), security type(none), and server port(110). Do any of these need to be changed?

Most likely a yes! A quick googling said they use port 995 (incoming) and 465 outgoing.
inbound.att.net / 995
outbound.att.net / 465

Good luck!

I have been having the same problem and tried using inbound.att.com port 995 and outbound.att.com and outbound.att.com port 465. Doesn't work. It either says incorrect username or password or unable to connect to server to verify account.

If you are getting the incorrect username or psswd your port settings are right.
It's accurately telling you that you are inputting the wrong username or password. You need to make certain that you have those setting correct.
Good luck.

You have to do it over the network. For some reason if you try to setup the account over Wi-Fi it returns errors like this. After the account is set up you can access how ever you want but it just won't allow you to set it up this way.
