Hi,
Just wondering if anyone has been able to get push/exchange email working via the HTC Mail app and google's exchange server.
No it is not working with my googlemail account either. I already tried hard and read a lot about it but I didn't get it working. It always hangs in a loop as soon as I start the mail sync after configuration.
Regs,
P.S.: I use MoDaCo 2.8 Rom

Thought as much, so I can't use the HTC Mail app or the unbuilt Gmail app (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=588547) for push mail
Shame about this, I've become pretty dependant on Gmail and google calendar.
I'm waiting to upgrade to the Hero.
At the moment I'm using m.google.com with Touchdown on a Magic, works fine. Hopefully I will be able to port the Touchdown licence to the Hero.
Yes, I have.
My settings are:
Email address: <email-addy>@gmail.com
Server address: m.google.com
Username: <email-addy>@gmail.com
Password: ********
This server requires an encrypted SSL connection: Y
In the Send&Receive menu:
Set download frequency: As items arrive
Hope this helps as it works fine for me.
regards,
Dave

What did you pick? I only tried to sync mail as I use a different email account for calendar/contacts etc and I use the Gmail app for that address.

Initially just mail, but I've tried all manner of configurations since.

Has anyone used Yahoo Messenger on the XDA? I have it installed and running, but can't connect to the Yahoo server. Any advice?
I have used YM (on the XDA in the UK on O2), you need to set it up using the proxy server.
It does work but the software itself seems to close itself, apart from sometimes getting offline messages, i didn't see any increased benefit over MSN messenger

tried the settings here in the Philippines.. but still it wont work!
It won't because that IP address is for a specific provider. Try searching at your providers website for proxy server adresses and subsitute those.

I would love to get Yahoo Messenger working on my XDA with o2! Is this possible? I looked on the Yahoo site for a download but doesn't seem to be one there.
Any help appreciated

I am having the same problem also.
I have entered the Orange DNS server settings as the Proxy: these are 192.168.071.035 and port 80.
Has it worked?? Not a chance.
Anyone know the correct settings for Orange UK?
BTW - there is a piece of software called IMOV which is a single IM environment for Yahoo, MSN and AOL. Get it here: http://www.movsoftware.com/products/imov/imov.htm
The only yahoo messenger client for Pocket PC I found is an old old version (for wince 2.11)
http://messenger.yahoo.com/messenger/ce/downloads_ce_msgr.html
I can connect sometimes, but the software seems to close itself :?
I don't know if yahoo developers plan to develop a updated version ?
Would be great as all my contacts are under yahoo messenger.
Yahoo for PPC 2002
visit www.yahoo.Co.uk click on the messenger link then look at the left of the screen. there is a link to wincE versions and open that will show you 2 versions. 1 for ppc 2002 and 1 for older wince versions.
However the problems listed above regarding servers and ports should be noted.
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?

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.
I am new to rooting but been reading over the last few days and took the plunge. I have successfully tried several roms and currently have GSB4.1 installed but I cannot get my gmail account to sync up. Some of the other roms just ask for the email address and pw and everything worked fine. This version is asking for domain\username but everything I try I get a: "Setup Could Not Finish Error...Unable to Open Connection to Server".
Can anyone give me some direction?
Thanks.
I had been searching for this info for some time with no luck. Wouldn't you know, as soon as I posted the above, I found the answer:
Domain\Username: \(user)@gmail.com
Password: (password)
Server: m.google.com
Sounds like you're using the stock email app and not the gmail app maybe?
Sent using my 666th Inc from remote regions of hell
Hello!
I have LA2 firmware on my phone, and until today I used the stock email app with no premium accoun. Today, I deleted the account, and after (to get push service) I've set up as a premium account. I have an email adress like this "[email protected]".
So...setting up the account I filled up those settings:
email adress: [email protected]
password: ******
I've checked "set as premium account (POP3/IMAP)"
After, I have chosen "POP3 account"
After, incoming mail server: mail.domain.ro; port: 110, unchecked the SSL
After, outgoing mail server: mail.domain.ro; port 25, unchecked the SSL.
But it doesen't get any email in inbox, and if I try to send, it doesen't get out of outbox.
What have I done wrong?
Thank you in advance for the help...

You can now setup Hotmail/Live/MSN Mail for push notifications and folder/calendar/contact sync using the Exchange Active Sync (EAS) Service and it works with stock "Email" Client. There is a dedicated Hotmail app for android, but I want all my Email in one place, and K9 Mail doesn't support EAS 2010 WebDav, which appears to be what the hotmail server is using. Not sure about Gmail app.

How to setup Hotmail on Android Phones http://windowslivehelp.com/solution.aspx?solutionid=f49bdf1f-8bb9-47e4-9633-e3a6ba15e2f8
edit: MS killed the detailed instructions link so that you'd be redirected to the hotmail/seven app, but this still works for now!
Instructions for default mail client
Account settings and their level of support will vary across Android phones. While the steps to configure push email with synced contacts and calendar will vary, we have found these steps to work across a number of phones:
1. Select Email client on phone.
2. Press menu and select Add account
3. Enter full Hotmail address: e.g. ([email protected]) or ([email protected])
4. Enter password
5. Select Manual setup
6. Select Exchange when prompted for “What type of account is this?”
7. Domain/Username, enter full Hotmail address: e.g. ([email protected]).
Note: If the device only says “Domain”, it should be left blank.
If the device says “Username”, then enter the full Hotmail address.
(On some devices, the Domain/Username may be pre-populated incorrectly and should be erased.)
8. Type in password. (may already be filled in)
9. Server name. Enter: m.hotmail.com for server name.
** Alternate Servers reported by others: bay-m.hotmail.com
(Note: this field may be pre-populated incorrectly depending on device, ie outlook.com).
10. Make sure box Use secure connection (SSL) is checked.
11. Select Next
12. Select desired account options for inbox checking frequency, number of days to synchronize, send email by default, notifications and contacts/calendar sync. Select Next.
13. Depending on device you may be prompted for account color and account name (e.g. “Hotmail”)
14. Select Next and your Hotmail is set-up and ready to go!
Yea, I still like MS. Win7 MediaCenter Multi QAM Tuner, Remote Potato & Remote Media Ctr android app rock. Don't hate me for it.

Also, di you know any free exchange server which supports SMS synchronisation?

The outlook .com service is brand new so I'm not sure about it. I would expect that it would use the same m.hotmail.com server and that the rest would be a settings issue but I could be wrong. Haven't seen enough info about it. I copied the settings in the op from Microsoft's site before the killed the link on how to do it. They want you to use their hotmail app which is poor.
As far as exchange SMS, I haven't heard of exchange being used for that let alone a free server.

I think Microsoft blocked support on Tablets or on some types of devices.
You may need to use the domain of debug-m.hotmail.com instead of m.hotmail.com

Outlook.com works fine for me. I use the same instructions posted here. No deviations.
For a moment I thoght this was Microsoft Outlook client contact synchronization and not the "online" @msn.com, @hotmail.com, @outlook.com, etc accounts.
Anyone has a good -free- suggestion on how to sync Outlook (client/application) contacts & calendar with Android?
Thanks,

I went through some headaches when I switched from my Winmo 6.0 Treo/Outlook/hotmail setup to Android/outlook/hotmail/gmail setup.
There isn't any decent free solution that I found. I did breakdown and buy "CompanionLink" to handle 2 way sync between Outlook & Google's server (contacts, calendar, & tasks) and it works well for that. I'm almost completely on Google services now (I only use hotmail for push email).
If I find a way to seamlessly sync contacts/calendars/tasks between Google/android/Hotmail/Outlook I will be all over it. Using exchange active sync (from the op) & CompanionLink are as close to a solution as I think there will be.
Note: Exchange Active Sync will allow you to sync hotmail calendar/contacts/tasks, but they will be completely separate from the phone/google info (like a separate directory) and not merge/update them together.

Some info i want to share, ITS ONLY MAIL SYNC!
Incomming settings:
POP3 server: pop3.live.com
Port: 995
Security type: SSL/TLS (Accept all certificates)
Outcomming settings:
SMTP server: smtp.live.com
Port: 587
Security type: STARTTLS (Accept all certificates)
If you set up the account as a POP email account, then yes, email (timed interval sync) is all you get without the push option.
If u set it up as listed in the OP (Exchange Active Sync), you get additional features.

The only issue i've found with this is that you can't view your emails in HTML. Can only view them in Plain Text and if you try to change the setting, the box to do so is greyed out and won't allow you to change it. Otherwise everything works great. Anyone have a fix for this?
