[Q] Hotmail folders in mail application (HTC DESIRE HD) - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

HI,
wondering if it is possible to see all the custom (user created) hotmail folders in stock mail application in htc desire hd.....
tried everything, but it only retrieves mails from inbox...
i know other way is to go via internet, but i would love the mail application to show all the hotmail folders

anyone plz?

would love to know this also

Answer = no
POP emails only ever support standard Inbox / Trash / Sent folders.
Anything else is kind of considered IMAP which allows full sync of all folders and PUSH mail.
Apparently Microsoft has recently set up Exchange Activesync on Hotmail (ie: IMAP access, kind of...). Though HTC Mail app does not function correctly since GB 2.3.3 with Exchange Activesync / Hotmail for some unknown reason.
Try:
- Moxier Mail (recommend)
- Touchdown
- Enhanced Email

[Q]Reactivate native ActiveSync support

Hey Guys
I have a big problem... with android 2.1 i expected to have native exchange support and eventually Moxier in parallel.
i use Hotmail with Active sync as my main central for all contact, email and kalender sync.
the problems with moxier are:
- contact editing only in Moxier contacts and not the social phonebook
- low res contact pictures
- no external programs have access on my calendar
- no email widget
- no emails listed in timescape and contact card
so my question: is it possible to reactiveate the integrated EAS feature of android 2.1 and if yes, will the data be visible in timescape or at least in the Mail and calendar application and contact cards?
nobody with a solution??
I haven't tried the following solution but you can give it a shot if you want. You have to be rooted.

Can anyone help?

[Q] Pogramm to sync SMS with Exchange 2010

Hey Community,
I have an HTC HD running WM 6.5 and a HTC Magic running froyo. The HD syncs all sms via active sync with the exchange server.
Is there an app for android that syncs SMS with my exchange server?
The latest version of touchdown does it ...
I've also suggested it as a feature for Handcent on there forums!
thanks man, works fine now
Touchdown can only sync inbox, other folders can not sync even I selected them to sync.
So I want to use Samsung email client for my other phone,
I extract email.apk from /system/app,
But it can not be installed on other phone,
Just show installation failed.
I tested on HTC, Motorola, all are rooted Android 4.0.4.
Is there any limitation from install this Samsung email client to other phone?

[Q] Outlook Email to Android

I am new to Android and coming from a Blackberry. How can I sync the emails in outlook with my new phone? I don't have an exchange server and I would prefer to do it with the mail app that came with the phone. I would like the emails to delete from outlook when I delete them on the phone and show as read when I read them on the phone and vice versa. I would prefer not to have the emails and information sent into the "cloud" also if that is possible, but if it is the only way so be it.
I know that I can have the two different email addresses sent to my phone through the included mail app by setting them up separately, but would the emails show as read, deleted, etc in outlook if I did that?
If it makes a difference I have two email addresses that feed into outlook. One of them is pop and one is imap. The phone is an HTC Amaze.
Could I just convert my pop email to imap and set up the two email addresses separately on my phone? Wouldn't that make it so when I delete email from outlook or the phone, it will be deleted on the other?
The problem with this is my isp does not offer imap so I will have to use google email to sync with it and make it imap.
If I do this I will have to add the gmail account to outlook and my phone, but wouldn't I have to delete the pop account from outlook and the phone in order to avoid duplicate emails showing up? I think this might happen because right now if I check the pop account without using outlook the emails show up that were received after I last opened outlook. The issue with deleting the pop account from outlook and phone is I still want to be able to send emails from that address.

[Q] Stock Email Client Deleting Emails

Hi all,
Recently purchased a Samsung Nexus S. The stock email client (not the GMail app), using POP3 will delete mails once they have been downloaded, or when I next sync. Occasionally it will not delete all mails, just some. The option to delete from the server is not ticked and no other clients are pulling from the server, so its not the case that another app is deleting them. To confirm, emails aren't being deleted after say 10 days, they are being deleted within minutes, and I'm only downloading a handful of mails.
Any help much appreciated- all forum posts seem to relate to other clients consuming from the server and deleting mails, which isnt my issue. Cheers.
Andy
If I remember correctly, POP email servers are linked between the mobile device and the regular computer. If you delete something on the computer it will be deleted on the phone and vice versa. If this isn't the case, are you sure they're being deleted and not hidden do to being marked as read? Check the trash to see if they've been sent there.
Thanks for the reply.
Messages are not being moved to any visible folders, and no other client (ie Outlook) are accessing this mail server.
Thanks.
OK, I kind of resolved this, if it helps anyone.
Firstly, I tried a different POP3 and also an IMPA provider with the mail client - both work fine, no problems. Then I recalled that my mail provider (Virgin Media UK) have recently advised that it is necessary to put 'recent:' ahead of the POP3 username, making it 'recent:[email protected]'. Now the default mail client won't allow this format of username, presumably some internal validation on the client side does not permit it.
So I tried K9 Mail - this behaves the same way with the standard POP3 username, but with the 'recent:' prefix (which it allows) my mails aren't deleted every time I pull from the server. My thoughts are that without the 'recent:' prefix, Virgin Media only returns the new mails - as the default mail client syncs with the server on a 1:1 relationship, it then deletes all old messages (even if they are only a few seconds old). With 'recent:' I think Virgin Media supplies a whole chunk of recent emails, not just the new ones, and the client app essentially doesn't delete the older mails until the time I happen to sync and they are no longer classed as 'recent'.
So in summary, there is no fix for the built-in client - but a workaround is to use K9, which seems a better client anyway. What's most ironic is that Virgin Media's email service uses Google Mail. Oh dear...

[Q] Microsoft Exchange vs POP3 vs IMAP

HI,
i am using htc SXL and wondering which one of the above is the best (quick) one to receive emails? (push email).
thanks,
You can google the differences between POP3 and IMAP.
Basically POP3 will delete messages from the server once they are downloaded to your device where as IMAP will keep them on the server but mark them read. Only if you delete them youself will they be removed from the server. So if you also read your email on another computer/device and want to see all your messages new and old, IMAP is the better choice.
Exchange works similar to IMAP as far as mail goes but also allows you to sync calendars as well. I use a calendar for work in Outlook via an Exchange server and it syncs nicely with the Android calendar app.
