I heard Hotmail now support Activesync. Have anyone tried using the P500 to synchronize with Hotmail?
I tried but it keeps trying to use POP3 of Hotmail Plus account.
Same here. Infaat even yahoo configuration fails for me
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
Don't think Yahoo supports Activesync. There is a Yahoo app you can use to synchronize Yahoo mail like GMail app. I couldn't find an official Hotmail app, so Activesync is my only option.
[RESOLVED] - How to use Hotmail Activesync with the P500?

To configure:
1 / Open the email client (not gmail), click on the menu, then Accounts
2 / click on the menu, then add an account
3 / Select MS Exchange and enter your Hotmail address and password, then click Next
4 / In the first field to your Hotmail address in the second password and the server field put: m.hotmail.com (even if your address is msn.com, hotmail.fr, ...)
5 / tick both boxes below and then click Next
6 / Wait for the verification of parameters and then choose the options you want, click Next
7 / Enter a name for the account and then click OK
8 / That's all, enjoy!

For me it doesn't sets automatically Activesync when i enter my Hotmail address.
On step 3/ you should select Others instead of MS Exchange, then you enter your address and password, and eventually don't click "Next" but Manual Configuration, then you can select MS Exchange and set the server to m.hotmail.com
Thanks guys.
To my surprise, POP3/IMAP works on my free Hotmail account but Activesync is so much better.
Does Yahoo support activesync? I don't like the Yahoo Mail App from the Market.

is there a way to have multiple email accounts on the tp? i have one of my hotmail accounts logged in. but when i try to go to add a new account for another hotmail account i have i go trhough the process. instead of adding it like my first email it goes online and i cant view pictures and it sucks compared to my original. i have to switch live ids if i wanna setup a different account in order to add gthe other email.
Is there a a program i can dl in order to do this? can i have a gmail account and hotmail account together or are we limited to 1 email that is tied directly to our tp?
Are trying to check your email through the web browser??
You can have as many pop/imap accounts as you want... you need to be using the built in copy of outlook... add each account separately
Makes sure you have pop or imap enabled in gmail or hotmail by checking the settings when you login over the web to each of those respective sites...
(ie: for gmail go to settings -> 'forwarding and pop/imap' -> enable IMAP)
From the Touch Flo 3D email tab tap Menu -> Accounts -> Accounts... -> Setup E-Mail. Add the incoming and outgoing mail server addresses, your username and password for the account, how much email you want to sync and you should be all set
I ran into the same problem. Have not figured it out yet. Evidently the built in email software does not allow two accounts under the same domain name. Ex" george @ verizon.net, and louie at verizon .net.
I have been able to set up multiple accounts, just not multiple accounts under the same domain name.
Is this what you are trying to do?
Yeah, it seems they don't let you have 2 hotmail accounts. But I do have more than one gmail account on there.
Here's one possible work-around:
Log on to your hotmail account on the pc. Then enable sending & receiving emails from other accounts as well. I have added my other hotmail account to it, and now get emails for both.

I have 1 hotmail & 2 gmail accounts, directly accessible and showing up on TF3D.
No problem putting 2 gmail accounts on, just a problem with 2 hotmail accounts, since you have to set those up through Windows Live App.
Has anyone figured out how to have two accounts with the same Domain Name Yet?
I didnt have a problem setting up 3 email accounts from the same domain. It's a personal domain. I unchecked find server settings automatically, set each as internet email, then followed the prompts. No problem with all three.
I've used BBC on My HTC TP2 for over a month and then WM Exchane sync with a gmail account also.
Although BBC provides a good option for push email, but it fails to provide
1. HTML mails
2. Links don't work within emails
3. In India with Vodafone in Delhi, HTC devices cannot have more than 3 email accounts.
4. You need to have multiple APN's at least 2, One for BBC, other for routine net surf.
5. With device like HTC TP2, HD2 etc without a D pad, next/ previous mail function annoying, close current email & then click next one to open
However I find WM Pushmail exchange better.
1. HTML mails
2. External links do work
3. PC type email interface
4. With devices w/o Dpad also, swipe across the screen changes to next email.
5. With a bit of work around you can have multiple emails on Exchange sync, with gmail, working as push mail
Create a new gmail account. In WM Activesync (disconnect from pc), in server settings create new exchange a/c with
Server address : m.google.com
u/name: [email protected]
password: your p/w
in Server setting choose only emails to sync.
You are done with creating exchange account to sync.
Now go to Schedule in Active sync
Set peak times as : As items arrive
Set Off-peak times as : As items arrive/ as per your choice
on bottom of this page Adjust peak times option is there, in which you may customize your peak hours.
Now on your PC login in your gmail account
Enter settings of gmail account
For the email accounts with pop/ smtp options available
go to Accounts and Import, here you can add accounts to
Check mail using POP3 option, select the desirable setting
For the email accounts without pop/ smtp options
go settings of that email, set forwarding to your this gmail id
Next step is to differentiate emails form different accounts say 5 accounts.
In gmail creat 5 labels indicating import/ forwarded email accounts name such as dinesh gm, dinesh yahoo etc.
Next in Gmail filter options create filter/ rule for each imported account
as
Matches: to[email protected])
Do this: Skip Inbox, Apply label "XXXX GM", Never send it to SpamCheck
Creat rule for all 5 accounts
In Gmail activate Multiple Inbox
Set pane 0 to Search Query as the label created " XXXX GM"
and same for rest of email accounts with respective labels.
Now Gmail stores all incoming msgs from different account with different labels, treated as folders by WM Exchange servers.
On your WM PPC go to Inbox of email exchange account created.
Click Menu> Tools > Manage Folders
(Sync at least once before this step)
You'll see all created labels for various email accounts on your PC in gmail account as separate folders in Manage Folder option. Check all the folders you want to sync
And VOILA you have multiple emails synced as PUSH mails to your WM device with any special Blackberry Connect service, no PINS etc.
Additionally it works on Normal GPRS/ EDGE connection delivering HTML emails
Any people say Windows Mobile or Phone now-a-days are waste of money. No they are the most customizable piece of design available.
Enjoy
Will you be notified of new messages?
I am forced to use Blackberry with my work because they don't let me have email on the exchange server. Blackberry is crap for many other reasons too....

Interesting. Could u please explain step by step how to make it work on Rhodium? TIA
Nice,
I have this but....
Mails will be duplicated between your Inbox and the 'labeled box'.
Beware, when you are replying a mail, you are always use your gmail adress and not the one from the 'labeled box'

You dont need to configure outlook/exchange settings. That wont work if you did. Reason is that the mailserver of Gmail isnt in your own domain.
Just configure your 2 Gmail accounts, just select Gmail instead of Outlook, HD2 got standard serttings for Gmail.
Push mail is a service provided by exchange server.
If you do not have exchange server, push-email will not work.
On the other hand, you could just configure your gmail accounts (as POP accounts or IMAP accounts, your choice) en periodically send/receive.
Hope this helps.
You may have to go into your gmail settings on your pc to configure imap or pop, i use imap on my device and pull every 10 mins

Not sure what you mean, if you go to add account and click on other, its all pretty straight forward and you shouldnt have any problems.
I have an exchange mail, gmail & hotmail accounts all set up and work fine.
Let me know if you have any more problems.
hi all,
just got my grubby hands on an S2 yesterday. was setting up my email accounts and realised that i can only set up 1 account. i have another account, does anyone know how i can get round setting up the second account.
thanks in advance...
I set up a gmail account, a hotmail account and 2 yahoo accounts. Since it has accepted 2 yahoo accounts, i don't see why it wouldn't accept 2 hotmail accounts.
oh, that's a lot of accounts...how do you get round doing it...i'm a newbie on android and can't figure how to create another email account...
I use default email client from Samsung, it's called Social Hub. There you can set all types of emails. If you don't like it, you can download an email client from the market, K9 or others.
Sent from out of space using Thuraya 2 satellite !
I set up 2 hotmail accounts on the standard email client. Both were set up as exchange accounts.
I used the standard email app because it is the one you already have. The enhanced email app that I use already has 2 yahoo (IMAP) accounts on it.
To set up hotmail as exchange:
Add an account - Settings -> Accounts -> Add an Account.
Put in your email address ([email protected]) and password, then select Manual.
You have 3 options - POP, IMAP and Exchange; select Exchange.
You will now see 3 boxes, Domain/Username, Password and Server.
Domain/Username: \[email protected] (you will have to add the @hotmail.com)
Password: (just leave it)
Server: m.hotmail.com
Tick the SSL box and then the Next button.
It will then contact the server, then you can set you preferences.
Repeat for the other hotmail account.
Hi everyone. I've had a look around and couldnt find the answer to my question.
Basically I have a website and I use Google to provide a custom email address. For example if my website was XDA then my email address would be [email protected]
I've tried and failed to add my email address to the email app on Android. My previous two phones were iPhones and they had no problem with the email address, they added the custom email address easily.
It seems weird to me that Apple's iOS accepts Google's custom email addresses as standard but Google' Android doesnt seem to. Could anyone help me set this up? I'm sure I'm not the only one!
hey there
just add a google account and use your personal settings should be good to go.

I know it works in Gmail but I wanted it to work in the default email app. I found a way to do it.
1. Put in your email and password
2. Select imap
3. change imap to imap.gmail.com
4. Security type SSL
5. Press Next
6. Check it's set to smtp.gmail.com
7. Security type SSL
and then it works in the default app
