Ok.  I've just been able to delete and re-create my pop accounts for mail.msu.edu in two instances.  Once, using wireless, and the other just using the normal 3G network.

I have had problems in the past creating an account, on the initial connect, using wireless.  At one time I just switched to using the 3G network via AT&T, and it worked fine.  But now, I've just been able to connect to MSU's system twice.

Contact me off list if you'd like, or call me and maybe we can figure something out?

I've never had a problem using POP on the iPhone.  Though I use IMAP most of the time, I do use POP for one.  The biggest thing is making sure that it uses SSL.  In most cases with POP, it won't be able to detect the SSL connection, so it will set it up without, then you have to go back in and turn the SSL back on for it to work correctly.  At least, that's been my experience.

So I am wondering how a sub-pound IPhone can so easily defeat me.

I've attempted to set one up now several times to do a POP connection
to mail.msu.edu and so far, its winning.  Little beast...

There don't seem to be any MSU help pages for this, so I implore folks
here, how do you set the networking stuff up to get an IPhone to talk
with MSU's mail system?  I'll bet I'm missing some stupid thing.

Advice?

Snickers?
