[Mobile] SMTP Blackberry 10 setup - possible solution

Anyone having any issues with SMTP on Blackberry 10 on BELL?

I found this older post that looks like it solves the issue.
»Re: Can't use SMTP with an iPad; Bell says not supported :(

If it's SMTP you need (ie -> being able to *send* mail) then try this: 67.69.240.69 [this is for Bell Mobility users]
Port 25, no authentication, no SSL. [no user name or password]
[The official SMTP server is: mail.1xbell.ca]
Been working for me for quite a while.

[Also according to Blackberry you need to be on mobility network only, no local Wi-Fi to send messages]

lots of SMTP issues with bell mail lately. One possible fix is to use port 587 instead of 25

What smtp server are you using? Have you tried smtp10.bellnet.ca without authentication/encryption?

Otherwise, if this is for a Bell/Sympatico email address, have you tried using the m.hotmail.com servers and setting up as imap?

Just tried smtp10.bellnet.ca without authentication/encryption - did not work, but there seems to be a problem with network right now.

Both emails I am trying to get to work are non-Bell addresses.

Tried 587 just now, did not work. You are right there are lots of problems with network right now.
It is working if I have Wi-Fi off - mail.1xbell.ca for server and no user id or password and port 25

What ISP are you using for your home network? It looks like you're using TekSavvy...

On Wi-Fi, you're using your ISP for internet access and most of them will limit SMTP access to their servers...One way around that is to use a different port - if the smtp server you're trying to use supports it.
