Email set up

[k.8.stars]

I was kind of worried this would happen, but maybe I'm doing something wrong.

I just got the Inc today, and am trying to get my accounts and stuff set up so I can become familiar with the phone and I can get my email set up.

Its through a POP account ( through road runner, my email ends in austin.rr.com)
But every which way I try and get it to connect it says it can't because the server is busy.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong guys?

Do the manual setup. Make sure you enter the incoming and outgoing server information exactly like you have it setup on your computer.Also your username entry is everything before the @rr.com. I have verizon email and that was my hang up. I had to do the manual setup.

As a followup I get my email pushed to my phone. It's verizon yahoo email. I have it setup on my home computer through Outlook Express(incoming.yahoo.verizon.net and outgoing.yahoo.verizon.net) It works perfectly on my incredible.

I forgot to mention, make sure you turn WIFI off when you're doing this manual email setup.

If I turn wifi back on will it screw it up or anything?
