Hey scribbclubber,
- First, why did you change to outlook? is not mandatory and if u want you can revert back by options on web page of hotmail
- Second, did you get any error when tried to configure automatically using "@outlook"?
Regards

try manual set up....
usually when selecting incoming select SSL security and out going its TLS

Go to add the exchange account, and when it takes you to the additional details page make sure your user name is \[email protected]
Then the server should be snt-m.hotmail. com, NOT what he has in the screenshot.
Leave everything else default and it works!

@ why did i change? absolutetly no idea
tried to revert back as you said but nothin to do... solved now, followed link given by ace10134
@ace thanks man it works

Great info, for future other inquiries
Regards!

Synchronize Hotmail

Hi Guys,
I am running the Phoenix 3.0 Rom based on WM6.5 I believe.
On the boxed rom I could sync with my hotmail account fine. Now with this ROM, any attempt to use hotmail as your email account forces you to use windows live and web interface to your email (horrible).
I got around this issue by using the help from this forum and not putting the word 'hotmail' into the email address and then telling the settings to use pop and smtp servers that are the ones used by hotmail.
However, now I get copies of my hotmail emails to my phone but not a proper sync. ie. I get the same emails on my phone as I do on the web but if i read or delete them on my phone, I still have to do the same on the web. Can anyone tell me a fix for this or am I stuck with having to manage the same emails in both places?
Thanks.

Hello! I set my gmail account at my hd2! When I hit send/receive button to check if I have a new mail, all previous mails on my database dissapeared! Leo shows me only unread messages but I want to be able to view my "old" mails at my database too! What can I do to solve that? Any help please? Im with Energy rom

Use IMAP rather than POP3 should resolve it.
If you want POP3 only option is a software to move mail to another folder within that mail account as it only removes mail from inbox.
I use POP3 & POMO to move my important mail to folders created by me & delete junk or leave it in inbox, works well for my usage requirements.
Thanks but gmail is already IMAP as far as I know! Am I wrong? So what can I do? To set again from the beggining my account and choose IMAP server? In what software did yoy refer to? sorry for my bad english

default setup is IMAP.
when I used IMAP all mail stays present in inbox.
I use POMO to organise mail with simple rules & move mail to another folder in my POP3 accounts so they are not deleted on next send/receive.

I managed to fix that! I didnt use that programm but with many "magic" and with little bit luck I fixed that prob in gmail an hotmail too! Thanks for help

If you gMail set as an IMAP account, you can use it as an Exchange server. In ActiveSync on your HD2, select 'configure server' and enter 'm.google.com'. Use your gMail account details as the user. Remember to de-select calendar and contacts etc unless you want to sync those with Google as well. The advantage of this setup is that you can set the email schedule to collect mail as it arrives. It does use more power so I use it during work hours only.

problem with emails loading (MSN)

My emails from my msn account sync fine when I first add the account to the touchpad email client. After I close the program and go back to it though it stops syncing new emails. The refresh icon constantly is revolving as well. I tried setting up the account through the auto setup and also through the microsoft exchange and the same thing happens either way. New msn emails show up on my iphone and then I wait and check the touchpad. They never show up. Any ideas?
I googled the problem and found one instance of someone having the same problem as me. Follow the link http://forums.precentral.net/hp-touchpad/295126-proper-hotmail-settings-touchpad-help.html
No one there seemed to be able to answer the question. Anyone here have any ideas?
My MSN mail syncs just fine along with my Yahoo Mail. WebOS set up a POP folder in my MSN account the first time it linked. Not sure why some are having issues. I just thought I would let you know that, at least for some of us, the MSN mail works fine.

Is your account an @msn.com or @hotmail.com. Mine is @msn.com. Not sure if it makes a difference or not.

problem solved
If anyone else is having this problem, it is solved. A user from the HP forums gave me the correct settings on how to set it up. For the server name, make sure you leave the https:// before the m.hotmail.com. These settings worked perfectly and I have not had a problem receiving MSN emails since.
"Is this a hotmail.com or live.com account? If so you need to set the account up as an exchange account with theses settings:
*
Account Type: Exchange
Server Name: m.hotmail.com
User Name: your entire email address
Password: your password
*
Under accounts you need to choose the items you want to sync: Mail, Calendar, Contacts, GAL (address lookup). I would delete out the account and re-create it fresh."

I read that if you set it up as an exchange account your emails will be shown only in text and not in html (with images, etc.), which sucks.

Yeah that is the one downfall but if you read the initial post I couldn't receive any emails at all. So I guess this is the next best solution until something else surfaces. Let me know if you find a better way to get msn to receive emails on the touchpad.

Maybe you have to remove the Google account and re-create it again.
Try to configure the Gmail account for mail sync with the default settings of ICS.
Do not use the manual configuration on the first try.
If the (push) mail sync works fine after automatic configuration, then try to create a second account for your Google Apps Enterprise and configure it manually.
Maybe this can help.
Good luck !

[Q] Hotmail - Non deletion of email on Server

Hi all,
I have set up my hotmail account on my Samsung S3 however, when I delete an email on my phone I do not want it deleted from the Hotmail server. Is there an option to do this or is it just tough
Thanks
No takers?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA
You set it on the Hotmail account itself. Log in from a desktop computer and go into POP3 settings - you should be able to find a setting in there that allows you to decide whether to delete emails from the server when they're deleted from the device.
Mmmm thanks for the reply but I have tried that. Seems once you delete them from the S3 they are deleted from Hotmail also. On most other devices there is an option to stop deletion from the server.
Any other help?
Depends what sort of account you've set up on the phone. If it's POP3, the method I've described above will work - however if you're using Exchange / Activesync, since that sort of account is direct sync, there is no option to leave mail on the server when you delete from the device as far as I know.
That's the one. Thanks chap. Now I've done it I am not sure I prefer the POP3 setup BUT at least I have the option.
