E-Mail Viewer
by chumby (chumby industries)popularity rank: 2
description: See the most recent messages in your POP3-enabled Inbox, and press any message to view the body of the e-mail.
Click the widget to enable audio if the widget uses it. Note that modern browser security may prevent the widget from loading content from other web sites, however the widget should be able to load properly on the chumby devices. These previews are possible through the use of Ruffle ‐ note that Ruffle is still a work in progress, and not all Flash features are implemented, so some widgets may not perform optimally.

Yahoo: Server Name: pop.att.yahoo.com port: 995 pop3 has to be activated in the Yahoo Mail options(on the PC, not on Dash or Chumby)

@lvmykyds I was able to get this working with my AOL account using the following settings. Incoming mail server name: pop.aol.com Port: 995 Username: (Your AOL username, everything BEFORE the "@aol.com") Password: (Your AOL Password) The first time I loaded this up, I had to pin the widget as it took almost five minutes to load the entire inbox, after that it was much faster.

I love my Infocast and would love it even more if I could check my Yahoo and Hotmail msgs. These products are fantastic but the companies behind them aren't helping their customers.

No TLS/SSL = no use. Sad.

Chumby how about replying to the email also, instead of just viewing them

Hello. IMAP? When? It's stopping me buying more Chumbies...

One more vote for SSL encryption support for the e-mail widget. This is necessary for MS Hotmail/Live Mail.

My mail server requires an SSL connection. This doesn't seem to be supported or is there some way to enable that? Or is there a similar widget that supports SSL?

This was working well for me before the update - but now I get signed in and page display says 1/2, but no messages displayed.

I have AOL and have tried to access my e-mail from my Chumby-one. I need to know what server to put in and which port to list. thanks

It shows my Yahoo messages, but it shows (what I think is) all the HTML markup as well, making messages so difficult to read as to be more or less useless.

I customize my Chumby to read my Hotmail messages. It did it one time and since then, the Chumby no longer works with my hotmail account. The folks at Chumby need to look at this.

For some reason I get the oldest 5 messages. How do I at least see the last 5 messages?

Always get an "error opening mailbox". Since there is no option to configure the connection type (like SSL) and port I assume that's the reason.

Wow, looks like someone fixed this overnight. The error is gone and now receiving domain mail just fine. Thanks! :)

What about gmail domain name support? Please add this. It should be a simple matter of parsing the login for an @ sign and not adding gmail.com in that case. 5 min hack... ;) Thanks!

suzi9874, It's a POP3 reader and will not support IMAP servers.

Contact Customer support if you're having issues. They will help you get it working.

I tried it with a POP3-enabled Inbox. I just get a black screen and the widget tries to contact the box. Where is the problem?

I can't get this thing to load!!! If you ask me I'm gonna try the other programs or make my own. I think they can do much better!

I think it fails it fails on Gmail because gmail requires secure POP authentication.
tonygill99

I use this widget a lot and it's great, but it would be so much better if it would display more than the last 5 messages and could display the text of HTML messages. Plus it's quite unstable, and opening a message regularly crashes my Chumby. Please, keep working on it to make it better and more reliable!

The new message body viewer is a HUGE improvement! Next, how about adding a scroll bar to the inbox, to allow the display of more than the last 5 messages?
