How to connect Megafon Mail

There are several ways to connect Megafon Mail, both light and full versions. Let's take a closer look at them.

The option can be connected on the Internet resource https://wap.megafon.mobi. In addition to activation, here you can configure other email settings.
Connecting the full version of mail - send an empty text message to service number 5656. You can enter “P” in the text field, which will also activate the full version.
Connecting to the light version of mail is done by sending the text “L” to the same number.

The text in the message can be typed in Russian or Latin letters, and the case of characters does not matter. After activating the service, you will receive a response notification that will contain a link to go to your email address.

In addition to the above methods, you can connect Megafon Mail by sending USSD requests using the call button:

Connecting the “Light” version of mail - * 656 * 2 #.
Connecting the “Full” version of the mailbox - * 656 #.

Features of the Megafon Mail service

In any of the offered versions of mail, you can view attachments in letters. The mail server optimizes files for correct display in the browser of a mobile device. The attached file can be viewed if the size is less than 1 megabyte. This feature is also limited by the memory of your smartphone.

In addition, there are the following features of the service:

You can use Russian and Latin letters and symbols in your email password: ! @ $ % ^ & * ( ) _ - + and numbers.
The Megafon email login cannot be changed; it must be in the form of your phone number.
If you have forgotten your email password, there is a “Remind password” link on the mobile portal of the site https://wap.megafon.mobi. By clicking on it, you will receive the password in a text message.
After deactivating the “Full” version of mail, the account settings on the server are deleted and cannot be restored.
Messages may not arrive from some mail servers for the following reasons:

some mail servers that operate on a free basis require additional connection and installation of POP3 in your account settings;
Some servers provide access to POP3 only for money. If you need to use a mailbox, you should check with support about how to access the server.
The Megafon Mail server selects new mail receipts only from the incoming folders of mail servers. It is possible that your email ended up in Spam or another folder.

You can add corporate email to this service if it works with the HTTP, POP3 and IMAP4 protocols.
To determine the port number and address of the mailbox server, you need to select the desired server from the list. If it is not on this list, contact your system's help desk for advice.
To determine the IMAP4 or POP3 server address, as well as the port number, go to the “Help” section of your server.
Messages about new letters contain information about the number of letters, the subject of the letter, the address, and a link to the letter. By default, notifications arrive as text messages. They can be changed to push notifications.

Other Features

The work of Megafon Mail involves many nuances that you need to know in order to use this service correctly.

Many phone models support push notifications. If there is no such function on your phone, you can receive notifications via SMS, as well as through the web resource https://wap.megafon.mobi of your mobile device and find out if there are new emails.
When the box is 80% full, you will receive a warning.
Mail contacts do not sync with your phone's address book.
In your mail settings, you can set the time range for receiving notifications. Select the desired time of day to be notified of new emails from the options provided.
In the settings, set the time range for checking emails.
You can temporarily disable the email notification function for each mailbox separately.
In the mobile networks of foreign operators, you can also use Megafon Mail, if these operators are partners of Megafon on roaming, and there is an agreement with them on this issue. When you are in roaming, payment for Internet for mail is made at roaming rates. Before traveling abroad, check the price of services on the Megafon website.
If you purchase another mobile device, the service settings remain the same. You just need to connect the Internet and data transfer.
If you cannot log into Megafon Mail, your login and password, server address, and port number may be incorrect. Some mail servers require a POP3 connection. This information can be clarified in the settings of your mail server.
If you saw a new letter, but did not receive a notification, the letter may have just arrived, and Megafon checks letters at a specified interval. The notification will arrive after the specified time. If the letter is read, there will be no notification; the service checks unopened letters.

User reviews

Most often, subscribers use the light version of Megafon Mail, since it is provided by the operator for free, and there are more positive reviews about it. Subscribers express the opinion that this is a convenient service; the login is easy to remember, since it corresponds to their phone number.
