In the Atrix, the corporate sync option for exchange emails is located under the MotoBlur accounts.
I was wondering, with this corporate sync, are the emails going through Motorola's server and then to the phone ?
Or will this establish a direct link from the phone to the exchange server ?
(like Touchdown, for example)
Wondering about the security aspect of having company's email going through another server before hitting the phone.
Thanks.
Direct to your company's Exchange.

None of the email account options use the Moto servers.
I've always thought the emails would go through Moto's servers and get pushed to the phone like Nokia's Ovi mail service.
Thank you for the clarification. That's good to know.
When I forward emails from my phone the email text that I am forwarding is not visible to the recipient.
If I try to view on my phone a forwarded message is not visible at all, if I view in Outlook I can view the forwarded email as a conversation, but other people that I have forwarded emails to have not been able to see them at all.
Thanks for any suggestions to sort this out.
..same problem here. Forwarding an email from my premium account leads to an empty mail. Any other account works fine.
I know 5 people with an S2 and the same issue. Anyone here with the same experience or even better a solution?

Can you guys send an email? Seems an outgoing server setting problem!
Sent from GT-I9100
Sending emails is fine, the problem is only with forwarding them. I've searched on Google and it seems to be a common problem on Android phones.
I rang Samsung who originally told me to delete all my email accounts and reinstate them and then told me that upgrading to the latest firmware would resolve it, however I think this was just a ploy to get rid of me, the employee didn't ask what my current firmware was and when I asked if this was definitely a fix for this in the latest firmware he said he didn't know!
everything is fine..except the forwarding. it's just with the 'premium' accounts. all other accounts work as expected. the server is a straight forward imap server. the same in fact i use for the second account that has no problems at all.
the issue is definitly on the mobile side... i am on KE2 - rooted.
if this issue is not fixable i will delete the premium account and reinstall it manualy. only workaround so far..

I'm having the same problem, ithehappy! No mails are being sent from my gmail account from the phone. Sent an email twice from my main gmail account to another yahoo account, and it has not even got sent! What exactly is the problem? Is it India specific problem?

sorry to say..but you have a different problem. sending mails is not the problem of this thread.. the forwarding of a received mail leads to an empty email on the recipient side. sending mails works fine.

I meant my problem is the same as what ITheHappy was referring to. I didn't mean my problem is same as yours. If somebody can answer why email is not being sent from my SGS II, it will be helpful to me. I was just trying to send one attachment of a pic in the email (total size of 131KB) and it just isn't being sent. There is no notification of whether the email is being sent or not! Does anyone here know the answer or I'll put my question in a separate thread.

Check you Outgoing Server settings, something must have messed up there.
I have just upgraded my firmware to KG2 and that does resolve the problem.
updated to KF3...now it works. root gone ;(
Hello,
I only have one email account set up to sync email. It is my MS Exchange account. I have it set for push.
Yet for some reason the icon on my home screen is almost always showing an incorrect number of new messages. If I open up outlook - then it seems to sync - not always synced even during key work hours - 8-8 (when I have it set for push).
I'm not sure if this is a glitch with the 3D or android something I'm doing wrong or if there is a work around. I know 3 other people with the 3D and they all have the same issue.
I'm new to android so I'll give you what info I think might be important.
I have both background and autosync checked.
I have mail, contacts, calendar, update when opened checked. I have update schedule set for push between 8-8 every day.
I tried making both peak and off hours push - unfortunately that doesn't help either.
Weird, I've been using my gmail account on exchange (I like the HTC Mail application better than the gmail one) and have yet to have any issues. Hope you get it resolved since my gmail is working fine though I'm thinking it might be something on the ms exchange server's end.

You use your gmail account on exchange? You forward your gmail email to microsoft exchange? Then have your business exchange server forwad to the 3D instead of just going direct from gmail to your 3D mail app?
I have multiple email accounts, most are gmail. I chose to access them through exchange because that allows me to use HTC mail, which has a unified mail box.
Regarding your initial problem, how many aspects of your email account are you syncing. For example, is it Inbox only or do you also sync outbox, sent, trash, deleted, etc. If you do the latter, I have noticed that the new mail count is off, because the app, after initial set up at least, will count mail synced in other folders that have at, some point be marked unread.
Going through the various folders and marking everything as read fixed the problem for me.
Hope this helps.

I am confused by those saying you are using exchange - I'm talking about using an MS Exchange SERVER. Are you sending your gmail to a microsoft exchange SERVER? I'm not talking about a gmail server or hotmail server but an actual server set up for a company that runs Microsoft Exchange. A server that when you access it from the web it says Microsoft Outlook Web Access or Microsoft Web App- Connected to Microsoft Exchange
I have only one email account I'm syncing which is on an MS exchange server. The only folders I sync are inbox and sent items. The only unread mail items I'll ever have on the server are items in my inbox. I'd like to have the icont on the home screen for mail messages show me the number of unread messages I have which are on an MS exchange email server (not forwarded from gmail or hotmail). I know other people using exchange servers that also have the incorrect number of items showing on their EVO 3D. My guess is people using gmail (direct from gmail servers) won't have this issue so I'm asking people who use MS Exchange servers. WM devices, WP7 devices and iphones from the same exchange servers show the correct number of messages.
i think it has something to do with the number of days you sync.
in outlook, mark all of your email as read (if you can do this).
hit refresh on your phone. it should say 0 unread for both.
from here you can figure out what is going on.
Thanks, I should be clear. It can be temporarily correct. FOr example if I open email on the phone and it syncs, and I open emails etc and go back to the home page and it shows no new messages which is correct.
But if I get a new email, then I open it on my computer and delete it. Hours later it will still show 1 new message on my home screen on the phone. I'd expect that sort of half assed issue if I was using pop but this appears to be something not implemented with sense or android.
That is normal for Android. Your phone notification will still show that you haven't read the e-mail from Exchange until you open e-mail on the phone and it refreshes. Annoying, I know, but it's like the notification function just isn't integrated as well as it should be.

Ok, first off, I don't have a 3D. I've got a Sensation on Tmo but I think they're pretty much the same phone.
I also had a few glitches when I tried out the Android Exchange client. But mainly I didn't like the draconian way it implemented my company's security policies and I said "screw it". I found a different client called Touchdown and gave it a whirl. I liked it so eventually I bought it. I'm not used to paying quite that much for an app when most of the others I use are cheap or free. But I use it a *lot* and it works very well. It's *much* better than the Android client imho.

Thanks for letting me know this is normal for Android. I hope they fix it as it is one of my ONLY major issue with Android. This is my first Android phone and I like Android a lot. The phone as a phone sucks but that isn't Android's fault.
I can not figure out how to access my corporate address book. We use gmail for corporate email and contacts, and I have contacts checked to sync, but the nothing. Anyone having these issues?
