    Default Bluehost webmail and iPhone 3G

    Has anyone figured out how to set up webmail for bluehost on the iPhone 3G? I follow the step by step instructions but still manage to stall out at the Verifying IMAP account information stage!

    Be sure to use your box#.bluehost.com as your incoming and outgoing servers, with port 26 for SMTP and 143 for IMAP/110 for POP, with authentication enabled, and your user set as name@domain.com.

    SMTP works fine on port 25 or port 26, but a lot of ISPs block connections on port 25 (to prevent spamming), so port 26 is the safest choice.

    There is actually a beautifully produced, step-by-step video tutorial for setting up the iPhone 3G with bluehost email.
