Hello,
I am looking for an app that can synchronize my work mail (I access it on my PC with MS Outlook). Please tell me the name of a software that can at least do that, if not access calendars, schedules, etc.
Thanks in advance
If you even tried to setup the stock mail app it asks you for type of account. Select Exchange and enter your info. If it doesn't work your server needs to be setup to allow mobile active sync. Also depending on the policy on your server you might need to pin lock and encrypt.

K9-Mail has the option of working with Exchange accounts, and I believe it's the best mail app. Maildroid is another option, but you'll have to pay a fair bit to get access to all of its features.

Hello, you could use MyPhoneExplorer. Works fine with me.

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?

Thanks for your reply.
but I cant find about pushmail setting for alol.net.br...
It's on the first page after you create an account:
Mobile Direct Push Mail Configuration:
Exchange Server Address: win.alol.net.br
User Name: <your username>
Password: <your password>
Domain: ALOL
Google is also providing an exchange-service (mail + calendar + contacts)

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!

Really? Thought it was also syncing emails when i tried it.
I don't remember exactly, i'm only using calendar + contacts.

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.
Hi all,
I would like to access several hotmail and gmail accounts from my phone from a single app. I tried the standard mail app, which setup great. However major problems for me are
1) It doesn't allow you to specifiy how many emails to retrieve (only their age).
2) The emails are shown in such a horrible format, and you can't alter the format of your emails.
So I tried k9 mail which has tons of features but it doesn't work well with hotmail as I have to access via pop and hence all of my folders are missing. Also there's no "email read" sync.
So can anyone advise me of an app that has the features of k9 but the compatibility of the stock app?
Many Thanks
Give K-9 Mail a try, its free on market, and works like a charm.

Surely there must be such an app??
How does the stock email app access Hotmail?
If you can't access Hotmail through imap then you won't find an app that can provide what you are searching for.

I believe it uses Microsoft Exchange and as I said, it works perfectly. However k9 has limited access through Exchange so does not work.
Surely must be an app with equivalent compatibility but extra features compared to stock app???
I don't use Hotmail myself so I can't help you there.
Search the market there are a couple of (paid) email apps, perhaps one will provide what you are looking for.

When I use the stock mail app, or k9, for my pop account I get the mail just fine. However when I download the mail on my desktop the mail on my phone disappears. I'd like it to stay on my phone. I have turned sync off for that account and leaving the mail on server is not an option. Is there a setting I am missing to tell it to retain a local copy on my phone or is this just not supported?
I feel a bit stupid not finding it ;-) anyone help out?

Sounds like it might be your desktop mail application that is taking it off the server, not your phone. Have you changed your desktop mail app at all? I'd double check its settings, and make sure under the advanced, or account options on your desktop mail client, that don't delete from server, or the such is checked.

My desktop app does indeed download it off the server. I wanted to see if there was a way to keep the copy on my phone even when this happens. I was hoping turning off sync would do this. I had this ability on the iphone, so just looking for something similar.
So there are two email apps in the S3, Gmail and what appears to be the stock Samsung email client.
in order to use Gmail (push) it seems you have to keep "Sync" enabled in the options. the question is, is enabling this consumes battery by constantly polling/syncing, or is this Sync another name for Push (as in server notifies device rather than the device polling)?
I am trying to figure out what is the best way to setup push. using the Samsung email app, it appears to be true push without the need to have "Sync" on the device enabled.
the gmail app is the closest thing to "push" for all non-exchange email clients.
so i'd say if you use gmail and not exchange - use the app
both email clients can be configured for push, but gmail requires "sync" option enabled on the phone. the samsung email client doesn't require Sync to be enabled for push email..
i think i will stick with samsung email client.. seems better for push email without having to enable Sync (which might use more battery).
thanks guys
helped me also!
Guys, if you know what you are saying here, you have the solution I'm looking for since I got the S3.
The samsung galaxy s3 email client has no push option, at least I haven't found it. It used to have it in the S2. So enlight me please, how do you push gmail, yahoo, etc on samsung email?

someone posted this on another forum:
I am writing this because I want to help all these people who want to have push email when using the stock Email application on Galaxy S3 and other Android phones. I used to have a Blackberry and I find it extremely easy to use the push email option.
It is really extremely easy. This is the step-by-step process:
1. Go to phone Settings.
2. Go to Accounts and Synch.
3. Select Add Account.
4. On the screen that shows up, select Email.
5. On the next screen write your email account (eg. [email protected]) and
your password.
6. Click on Manual Setup (DO NOT CLICK ON NEXT).
7. On the next screen choose Microsoft Exchange Active Synch (yes, this is the correct one, do not be surprized!).
8. On the field Domain\user name, make sure that you have your complete email address, preceded by a \ (ie. \[email protected]).
9. Your password should also be entered (it is done automatically, but if it
is not, add it yourself).
10. In the field Echange Server use m.google.com (check with other email providers what you shoud use - I use a gmail based email service so I can not help you here, but I am sure that it is easy to find out).
11. Check Use Secure Connection and uncheck Use Client Certificate.
12. Click Next and OK if an information box pops up.
13. Change the Account options as desired and click Next.
You are all set. It works like a charm for Gmail accounts, you should make sure it works also for other services / email providers.
Good luck!

I personally use yahoo, and I still haven't found a way to make it work yet. But, gmail, according to what I've read so far, it should work just fine.
I already gave a try to the method above. It works, bute it has a few drawbacks:
1. It uses more data,more battery, more awake time than the push email client on the S2.
2. It works only for gmail, not yahoo. Because yahoo is greedy and wants money for an Exchange feature.

you can also give a shot to the yahoo mail client, it`s available on the playstore. not the best, dar face treaba
I'm looking for an email app that can connect to gmail and yahoo mail without necessarily connecting through accounts that are on the device.
An app that is independent of the information that is on the device. The same way an app from a website connects to your account on their site without having to go through the accounts set up on device (if i understand it right.)
Is there such a thing?

Are these options safe? Well what i mean exactly is, is my personal info and privacy kept from being sold and what not? Cloudmagic does use cloud services and i assume outlook works in a similar fashion. If these email apps do the same thing that the native gmail app will do with any information i summon use and keep on my phone anyway, then it's kinda back to square one. I'm using moboclean to keep as much info on my phone (mainly my contact list) away from these communicative apps. Since i have a couple of alternate email accounts, i would like to use a particularly different app for one of my accounts and not get it mixed up with all the info sharing the other apps do.
Now if there is something that i've misunderstood on how some of these apps work, let me know. There is still some learning i need to do, but i really don't like the idea that some of these apps have inevitable permissions to access account details stored by other apps on my device and what not.
I just need the email app to work literary like a browser, like how i would access gmail through google's mail.google.com web page, but instead, the apps will use my credentials to login to my inbox automatically and not tie my device to my account in anyway, nor tie my account to my device. And google or yahoo or whatever, will think i'm accessing my email through a normal desktop computer.
Maybe i'm asking too much in our "out of control" world of today.
But thank you. I do appreciate all your help.
