Mail Settings - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin

I've searched the forums, checked the wiki and still can't find were the mail settings are stored on a Tytn. I want to make a cab file that contains my IMAP mail settings to speed up reconfiguration post rom upgrading. Anyone know where it's stored. The settings don't seem to be in the registry.

This is for directpush exchange accounts, same can be done for pop3/imap but I don't have it, you'll have to digg =)
Code:
<wap-provisioningdoc>
<characteristic type="Sync">
<characteristic type="Settings">
<parm name="BodyTruncation" value="1024"/>
</characteristic>
<characteristic type="Connection">
<parm name="Domain" value="put-domain-here"/>
<parm name="Password" value="put-password-here"/>
<parm name="SavePassword" value="1"/>
<parm name="Server" value="exchange.example.com"/>
<parm name="User" value="[email protected]"/>
<parm name="URI" value="Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync"/>
</characteristic>
<characteristic type="Mail">
<parm name="Enabled" value="1"/>
<parm name="MailBodyTruncation" value="1024"/>
<parm name="MailFileAttachments" value="1024"/>
</characteristic>
<characteristic type="Calendar">
<parm name="Enabled" value="1"/>
</characteristic>
<characteristic type="Contacts">
<parm name="Enabled" value="1"/>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>

Here is what I did to create a cab that will build mail settings:
1)create a text file for the provisioning of the account. Name the text file _setup.xml
Here is the provisioning document that I used for IMAP. (note the characteristic type is a GUID that I made up) You need to edit this doc for youir server/user settings.
<wap-provisioningdoc>
<characteristic type="EMAIL2">
<characteristic type="{12984356-1211-3753-6011-103170112174}">
<parm name="SERVICENAME" value="Account Name"/>
<parm name="SERVICETYPE" value="IMAP4"/>
<parm name="INSERVER" value="inboundmail.yourdomain.com"/>
<parm name="OUTSERVER" value="outboundmail.yourdomain.com"/>
<parm name="NAME" value="yourname" />
<parm name="AUTHNAME" value="yourmailloginname"/>
<parm name="AUTHSECRET" value="password"/>
<parm name="DOMAIN" value=""/>
<parm name="REPLYADDR" value="[email protected]"/>
<parm name="LINGER" value="15" />
<parm name="RETRIEVE" value="2048" />
<parm name="KEEPMAX" value="300" />
<parm name="DWNDAY" value="3" />
<!-- "DWNDAY" value="3": retrieve messages only retrieved on inbox within last 3 days-->
<!-- "KEEPMAX" value="25": max of 25 email will be retieved -->
<!-- "RETRIEVE" value="2048": only 2k of each email will retrieved at the begin, aftherwards automatic download of the email
(it's also possibe to set retrieving to: header only) -->
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>
2) you then need to create the cab file using _setup.xml.
You need to have makecab.exe from the wm5 sdk. If you don't have it...google to find it.
Here is the command...
makecab /D COMPRESS=OFF _setup.xml mail.cab
I turned off compression....from what I read PPC does not support it.
3) Move the cab using Windows explorer or Memory cards. The MS docs state that Active Sync should not be used.
4) run the cab.
If you need POP3, google wap-provisioningdoc and pop3...you'll fine more examples.
Once again...thanks to Pof for pointing me in the right direction.

Did you get it to work? I get the message that installation was unsuccessful. Any pitfalls to watch out for?
Tahnks,

I have this working with out a problem.
I can build one for you quickly if you need it. Or I can PM you a copy of mine and then you can extract the xml file and edit it to your needs and then you can re-create the cab.
