K-9 Mail can not send email

Posted by kramerica on a different forum (I just copied and pasted it over)
1st off, I was having a massive problem setting up my Charter Email Account. Error was on the Outgoing portion and it was getting frustrating.
2nd, after searching a few forums, I found this on a Verizon forum and want to make sure that Beetle from that forum gets proper credit that fixed my problem (as it is massively different that what the instructions and troubleshooting did). If he got it from somewhere else, I apologize, but he got me what I needed so I give him the credit.
Here are the instructions and if you follow them to the letter, you will solve your Charter email problem and get the POP3 email setup properly:
"IGNORE what Charter said the address is for Incoming and Outbound. pop.charter.net and smtp.charter.net will ONLY allow you to RECEIVE, when you try to compose, reply, reply all, forward, you will get a error, and it will NOT go out.
the correct settings should be:
Mail Type: POP
Incoming Mail Server: mail.charterinternet.com
Username: [email protected] (first part of your email address DO NOT omit the @charter.net)
Password: whatever the password is to access the charter email account
Port: 110
Encryption: None
Outgoing Mail Server: smtp.charterinternet.com
Authentication: ON
Username: [email protected] (first part of your email address DO NOT omit the @charter.net)
Password: whatever the password is to access the charter email account
Port: 25
Encryption: none"
I got this to work on my Droid, so again, I couldn't be more grateful and hope this helps with those having similar troubles.
If that works we will move onto GoDaddy which I am guessing needs to be setup as an IMAP instead of a POP3
OK this may be something I am unfamiliar with. Good opportunity to learn though.
How are you listening to your voice mails? Reason I ask, I use Verizon Voice and it makes a file (never checked the format though) I can listen to from a nice UI (User Interface). Google Voice does tha same via an email through Gmail where you could listen to the file or read it.knocking em out 1 at a time..lol
So you can send an email on Charter now but that email only shows up on the PC and not the phone right?
OK, let's work on GoDaddy then.
Lot's of different options on this thread.. Please read the whole thread before deciding YOUR best route of action. (It's only 1 page)

OK seems to be working now. I checked "Security Type" as "NONE" and used port 80.
Thanks so much!!!! People like you make forums like these so great
Now if I could only get my complete signature in there instead of a single line. Ideally I'd very much like to have our company logo (graphic) in my signature.

I got some ideas for that. Never used a signature before so I'ma have to mess with it for about 10 minutes to see the possibility.
Also, you are welcome. Thanks for the compliment
OK, yeah, I don't know. You can't paste an image in there, you can't add an image in there. Maybe you could setup some kind of thing where it pulls from the internet? Like on your phone it says www.companyx.com/image.jpg but on whoever sees the email side it just shows the image.jpg file. I'm not sure that's even possible to do, I am just searching my brain for avenues.
I mean you can get more than a single line in there. I just can't come to grips with how to put an image in there.
You can also setup identities so like, if you are at work it could say
John Smith
Company X
P: 555-1212
F:555-2121
Email: [email protected]
ANd if you were just emailing a friend or something it could say
John Smith
Hey what's up.

Latest Version (of anything) Go into the market, hit menu button. Selcet downloads. If anything says "update" instead of installed, purchased, etc.. then update it.
Let me see about the signature.. 1 minute.
ok I setup a sig and tested it. Works fine. I have 4 lines.
Menu button >more>settings>account settings>Composistion Defaults
Fill our "your name", "your email address" and check use signature.
in the signature box, erase all the "sent from k9..etc.."
Put in (I did anyway)
"Josh Smith" and then hit the return button (the arrow pointing to the left on the right side under the delete key)
"Company X" hit return
"513-555-1212" hit return
blah@somewhere .com hit return
Came up as 4 lines when I sent it to myself and checked it on the computer
