I followed these directions to the letter multiple times and still cannot get email to work on my Google phone.

I'm still getting the error message, "Couldn't Open Connection to Server". No matter how many of these forums I follow, my phone will simply NOT add my optonline emails. They used to be on this phone, but they were acting up so i was told to remove them then add them again and that was the last time I was able to see emails on my phone
