Trouble Setting Up AT&T Email on Phone: Password Issue Despite Correct Entry

Hy,

I'm having issues setting up my AT&T email on both iPhone and Android. Despite following AT&T's instructions carefully, I keep receiving errors indicating an incorrect password, even though I'm certain it's correct!

I've tried both automatic and manual setup methods, double-checked my password numerous times, and even disabled some security settings on my phone, but nothing seems to work. Has anyone else encountered this problem? Any suggestions on how to successfully configure my AT&T email on my phone would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

Did the instructions that you carefully followed include obtaining a Secure Mail Key and using that in place of the password when setting up your e-mail client?  If not, try that.
