I have two e-mail accounts set up on my iPhone one pop3 and the other imap. I'm having problems with both accounts. They work for a while and then all the sudden they stop receiving mail. They will not fetch every 15 minutes (like I have it set) and when I go into the mail application it just says "Connecting" and never connects or changes to "Receiving Mail." I can fix it by powering off the phone and powering it on again, however it just happens again after some time (usually less than a couple of hours). Anyone seen this problem or have any ideas on how to fix it?

had similar problems with my pop account, always said cannot retrieve mail and is unable to connect to network, but no problems with my imap account

anyway, delete the mail account and set it up again. this worked for me
