Hi,
I have searched the site and found nothing that covers my question. The problem I have is that I tryed to set another email account up, it follows the normal procedure perfectly, as if it was setting the new account up. Then when completed I go into accounts and all I see is SMS and Activsync. The new account is not there and when I try to set it up again it states that the name is already in use. One other factor to consider is that I just upgraded from WM2002 to WM2003. I dont really want to downgrade or change my operating system as I have just got my XDA set up perfectly.
Rom version: 4.00.11 ENG
Radio version: 4.21.00
Hope you can help me out with this problem as I am starting to pull my hair out.
Regards,
Chris
Been there seen that, try doing a soft reset and then recreate the accounts. BTW we're talking POP3 email and not Hotmail, right?
HTH
Its actually POP3 and Hotmail. I bought the hotmail add-on from pocketgear, which allows the normal inbox to download messages. This worked brilliantly on wm2002
Just another bit of information, I've soft reset the machine and it still comes up with "That name is already assigned to another account. Enter a unique name and try again". But the only account I can see is SMS, this is really weird.

Yeap like I said been there seen that and I'm sorry to say that Pocket Hotmail 2.0 is not compatible with WM2003.
If I remember correctly to fix your POP3 problem now you must remove Pocket Hotmail 2.0 and then do a soft reset. If that fails your next course
is a hard reset unless you have a SD backup without Pocket Hotmail 2.0.
HTH
Oh yea I forgot to mention that OneMail will be in beta starting Wed. 10/22/03 maybe if its not to late you can try to get on the team.
Send email to: [email protected] a request to be put on the team..

I recently update my 3125 to WM6 and it is working great. But I do have one issue that was previously working when I was using my old ROM. I have my email synced with my company's Exchange server. I am able to get email contacts, etc. But I used to be able to delete an email on my 3125 and then it would also delete it on the exchange server (removing it from Outlook). This is the way I prefer it. Is there a setting that I am missing? or is this a bug with this new ROM (I used the CLEAN version by the way). Any help would be appreciated.

Deleted items won't get deleted immediately. It does take some time, because deleting items isn't as urgent as receiving. That worked the same way in Mobile 5.
HTH
Thank you, I may have not been waiting long enough, I see if I do a Send/Receive it works immediately. What setting would I change to do it faster?
you can see if there is a setting like in the professional version of Windwos Mobile concernig the Emptying of deleted items, the options are imediately, on next send & receive and another one is manually....
BUT I am not sure it is present on the Windows Mobile Standard, (sorry I am too lazy to go downstairs and get my startrek power it on and check...so you have to look for it yourself
No, I don't see that setting, that's fine though, I'll just let it take it's time I guess.

I don't know and don't care. Because if I delete an item on my mobile, than I'm away from outlook. And than I don't care if the item flushes down right now or later. As long as it is gone all is fine.
Bye
It saves battery and data not to "push" the "read" or "deleted" updates immediately.
As you say, you can send/receive to force it - but it will also be updated next time it syncs anyway ie when you get another email.
I configured my phone with Gmail out of the box, it functioned perfect for a few weeks, and now for some reason it will check and download my email, but will error when trying to send any emails.
Any idea why this could be?
Yah, that's happened to me too, I just deleted that gmail account, made another one that checks the same account, and it worked again...kinda annoying, but it's a 2 min process.

I have seen so many repoorts of this over at PPCG and from firends of mine with the TP.
Maybe a GMAIL issue? Not sure but your not alone.
i've tried remaking the account on the phone to no avail. good to know at least I'm not alone!
I started seeing this problem with IMAP servers on WM 6.1, have compiled some info on it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=374663
I haven't had to recreate any mail accounts after applying the MS WM 6.1 patch linked in that thread. A soft reset is all that's been needed since.
I've got my fingers crossed for WM 6.5 to be a real fix. I'd like to give that 5.2.21014 a try too if it ever comes around again...
go to mail2web.com create a free account (Exchange Support)
go to Gmail settings forward ur gmail incoming mail to [email protected]
now setup push e-mail on ur phone through active sync
ull get the e-mail within 5 seconds of it being received, and u'll save some battery juice cuz ur phone is not checking for new e-mails every now and then.
IMHO it works flawlessly, i have my hotmail and gmail going through push, as u can forward as many e-mail accounts as u want
MOE
As it turns out a second soft reset and delete>remake the account on the phone got my email working again.
anyway since mail2web is no loner free this free service could come in handy http://www.alol.net.br
if you get the following message:"the security certificate on the server is not valid. contact your exchange server administrator or ISP to install a valid certificate on the server."
Try to use without ssl connection. Or enter in https://win.alol.net.br and get the certficate file and copy to your phone and run the certificate file .cer.
Both options should work.
certificate attached below.
has anyone tried it ? i'm currently using windows live but i'm not too happy with it since i have to forward my gmail to my live acc...
anyway i have tried these services as well:
emoze - only 1mb attachment size
emansio - doesn't work with gmail when HSDPA is enabled (customer service sad that that will be fixed in their next release)
seven - service is unreliable , and too buggy for me (still beta).
WM live - doesn't allways sync (sometimes it takes up to 3hrs to sync my acc)
mail2web - no longer free
funambol - it doesn't exactly push mail.. it usually gets it within 10mins
imap pusher service - isn't stable , however a great and promising project
massaint direct push - http://dpush.massaint.com
It's free DirectPush , currently works only with gmail through ActiveSync
so does anyone have some more info on this alol.net.br exchange service - my main concern is if it's going to stay free and can i use a different "reply to/send" adress.
thanks
EDIT : added alol certificate
regards ;-)
I would rather use Chronobis ! Try that if you want Outlook emails on mobile !
It works perfect. Pushes in a second, 1GB space, up to 100MB attachment. Thanks for sharing. But looks you can't use different address.
This free service is exchange 2007 or 2003 server?

but I cant find about pushmail setting for alol.net.br...
It's on the first page after you create an account:

are you sure that you can sync mail? i know about calendar and contacts.
are you using something like nuevasync?
Works with your desktop Outlook 2007 and Outlook 2010
Very nice, but you can't use your existing Windows Live account for it. The only way to get those emails would be to foward them. Other than that, if you're looking for a new email address, this is fantastic!

I think you can add a GMail account to your Mail on your phone, but it doesn't use the Exchange server at all, it just goes through POP or IMAP or whatever it uses.
i use alol since 2 weeks now and i must sat that it is really reliable.
i sync ppc, tabletpc and desktop pc (mail,calendar,contacts n tasks).
the guy from alol was very helpful to configure all of this.
but if u want to also sync ourlook 2007 sp2 with alol (and any other xchange i guess), you will have to dl a hotfix for outlook, unless you configure the account before applying sp2. i did a lot of search and test before understandin and finding that.
u can pm if you need
btw, i recommand alol, it is working very well (i ger all my email from several addresses with gmail and forward all 2 alol; so that i get push for all boxes with 1 only account. little drawback: i answer all my mails with alol address)
@lezink
Can U tell me, which outlook hotfix it ist, because i´m having also trouble with alol an the Outlook 2007 SP2. I can´t connect to the server.
My mobile syncs without problems, but I want to sync my desktop pc also.
Thanx

Hmm that's true. Idk, I actually never thought about that. Bad idea by me, most likely. Well I'll tell you if anything happens. I noticed that they seem to be from Mexico or another Spanish speaking place, because all of their e-mails have spanish in the headers, like the to and from parts.

For the past few months, I have been trying to solve a problem with POP3 email. I have posted in the Ralph & Software sections to no avail.
The issue is how email gets sorted as it arrives. In outlook, email is properly sorted based on when it was sent to you. When using the Fuze and POP3 email however, the sort is all messed up. It sorts based on when you log in to check for messages, not when they were sent.
Take a look at the 2 pictures. One is the Outlook account and the other is the POP3 account.
You will see that they do not look the same, but they are for the same email address and both updated within a few seconds of each other. They should look the same, but they do not.
Does anyone know why this is the case? I need to use POP3 when I am not in the office and it does not really work the way it is supposed to. I have tried every imaginable ROM and the results are always the same. 6.5, 6.1 it doesn't matter. I fear that I may be forced to dump my poor beloved Ralph in favor of a BlackBerry if I cannot get this to work reliably.
I am still surprised that this does not seem to hold a larger disaffection. Perhaps not many of you use POP3 email accounts.
Thanks for any advice.
Doug M.
All my POP3 accounts get sorted by received date by default or I can change it in the TOOLS -> SORT BY menu. The pics aren't attached so I can't see what your talking about.
I am using aim mail and yahoo pop3 accounts and do not have this issue. As suggested previously, you may want to review your settings

Looks to me as though your POP3 server is timestamping the messages as you access them, not when they arrived. My POP3 mailbox looks just like your Outlook one.
Cheers,
Steve.
Sorry about the missing pics. They are now attached.
The problem for me comes in when you do not check the POP account on a regular basis. As shown in the picture, the time stamp on the POP account seems to be when I did the download; in this case 9:21 am. So all of the messages get sorted based on the same date & time. Outlook email is sorted correctly based on when it was sent.
I have tried to use Tools>Sort By, but the time stamp seems to be the problem. In the example posted, the POP emails on the list are mixed up over about 3 days but all show 9:21 am. Lower in the list are messages from today.
Any help is appreciated.

That is the strange thing. When you open the message, it has the correct "Sent" date. But when viewing the Inbox Header list, it has the wrong date. Take a look at the attached and you will see what I mean.
Thanks for the help.

I thought I just saw a cab that fixed that over in the Topaz forums:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4766831&postcount=1831
It's an SMS Timestamp fix but perhaps the bug also effects emails, which would make sense. The cab posted is in that link.
Problem Solved - Sort of...
Thanks for the replies. I tried the timestamp CAB to no avail. To experiement a bit I loaded a few other POP accounts from different hosting sites. They all worked fine. The problem must be with my work POP hosting account. I switched it to IMAP (which I did not know we had) and all is well.
Thanks again for the assist.

So my problem is simple.
When I upgraded to latest official ICS ROM (I had to use Odin) I have this connection error in the stock e-mail client.
I'm using an Exchange 2010 server, I've removed account, and added it again, it did sync and retrieve new e-mail for about an hour, but suddenly it stopped working. It keeps coming back with the connection error...
Can any-one please help me?

Ok,
It's already done syncing... yesterday (when the trouble started) it synced very slowly.. Let's see if it stays like this now...
hi,
have the same problem.
tried what you suggested, it ectually cleared the account and i had to re-enter and reset it up.
did not work, it synced some emails and then stopped with connection error
i use exchange 2003, samsung galaxy s2 ics 4.0.3
any suggestions ?
thank you
addition:
--------
bow, after a few hours it did sync, VERY slow and when reading the mail the sync back to mark as read either not done or will also take hours...
where is the problem ?
i can avoid thinking of going back to 2.3.6 as this version really sucks.. it has so many problems.
same here
Hello,
Same problem here, on Android 2.3.3 no exchange sync problem, after update ti 4.0.3 connection error ...
Samsung Galaxy S II (Black) - Android 4.0.3
So I haven't had any problems since my last post until now :S
About an hour ago it synced an SMS messages over 3G, when I came home, I received an e-mail on my Outlook client and tablet at the same time, so I kept looking to my Galaxy.... nothing!
It's not my exchange server (2010 SP2), everything, including my tablet on android 4.03 using the ASUS client work perfectly fine...
Using POP3 or IMAP is not an option, even not as a temp workaround... I really need the activesync :S
it's a "known" defect affecting some Exchange accounts (f.e. google mail's ActiveSync): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1545986
there are some people that claim they could get it to work by changing some settings, but that only helps for some exchange servers. the ASOP 4.0.4 exchange service & mail client seems to work tho.

The last post on page 10 of that topic seems like a working solution... To bad i don't have the time to root my phone and try it atm...
So replacing the e-mail and exchange apk's made it even worse for me... now I can't even start the mail app anymore
Issues with Exchange and other syncing with ICS
After reading lots of post and trying to resolve issues I believe I have resolved my issues using pop & Exchange accounts.
Try the following:
1. Edit every email account to the lowest retrevial size for emails.
and leave whatever email accounts you have setup as is.
2. Turn your phone off, do not restart.
3. Hold down the home button and press the power on button, keeping the button held down until you are at the full menu screen or pin code for your sim.
4. The if phone doesnt refresh, go to email settings and refresh each individual email account. Mine did automatically.
Hope this helps all the poor suckers out there that have spent hours on their phone trying to resolve issues rather than being the guinea pigs Samsung has made of us!
Good luck & god bless.
Liz
This doesn't work either...
Samsung has to fix this very soon... Some people try to use this thing for business, and the exchange feature is one of the most important features imo... I have to have a fix soon becaus this is soo ... annoying
I guess I have a good temporary fix, by setting the retrieval size to headers only it seems to work fine....
I am having same problem on galaxy s2. Recently upgraded to 4.0.3.
It syncs sometimes with exchange 2010 but most of the times it gives error as
'Connection error '. I have tried everything that you guys suggested. Nothing seems to work.
please help!!
Hope it help to solve
Changing the maximum email size to '100KB' from 'All' also solved my problem.
It Solves the problem for some time. When I reduced to size to Minimum, it worked for 3-4 days just fine. Altough 'Connection Error' Again started coming.
It stayed like that for couple of more days and exchange started working again.
Just to make it clear, our exchange is working fine since all others are getting updates.
Really strange!!!
Email client started working
Hi guys.
I updated to 4.0.4 on my skyrocket yesterday and faced this issue till today morning. Just while being in the email app.. go to the settings of FONT. It has not been selected and hence we do not see our mails.
Select any size.. and voila the mail appears.
