[Q] How do I stop Exchange sync pulling in other account emails? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
My colleague has just bought a Galaxy S3. He's set up two email accounts: his work Exchange account and his personal AOL account.
He's found that emails sent to his AOL account keep getting synced to his Exchange account (i.e. he can see the AOL emails in his Outlook inbox on his computer).
Does anyone have an idea why this is happening? And how can he solve it?

[Q] Email Configuration allover the place -PLEASE HELP !

Good Morning,
I currently have several email accounts set up with K9 email but I seem to have a bit of an issue here and there.
I have;
Two Hotmail accounts ; I am receiving emails that come to the Hotmail addresses into both my hotmail account AND into the K9 accounts on my droid. NO ISSUES.
then
One Gmail account which is my business email. I have my @gmail.com configured to forward to my @.customdomain.com. I am receiving all emails sent by people to my K9 account on my Droid but it does not arrive into my outlook . When I send an email to my @custom.domain.com account from my own outlook package, it does arrive back in my outlook inbox . So gmail seems to be routing my own outlook mail ok but not anything coming from third parties via gmail.
I am guessing it is a simple setting but where ? I have all the "delete from server" etc UNCHECKED in the account settings ....
Can anyone shed a light with what info I have given >??
thanks very much
Ok may be when k9 gets updated it sets email as already poped or read to your domain that's why outlook doesn't retrieve them. But when you send them through outlook may be due to internal routing it comes to your inbox and not through server. Try this deconfigure your k9 and see if it pops in outlook or set outlook to retrieve all mail read unread deleted poped. I don't know how.

[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] 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.

[Q] Outlook e-mail

I changed my hotmail account to an outlook account. The only problem now is that the stock android e-mail app doesn't accept my outlook account, it wants to know if it is a IMAP POP3 or EXCHANGE e-mail account... I don't know this stuff. Could anybody help me please?
Thanks in advantage

Syncing GAL to Contacts

Hi,
Is there a method to sync Exchange GAL to contacts? Maybe a plugin for a new account type to sync it?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
When you add an Exchange account, is there not an option for you to sync contacts?
Side note: for me, I do NOT have my Exchange account contacts synced, so my Exchange contacts do not show up in my Contacts app. However, when composing emails, the Intellisense in Email still auto-finds my Exchange contacts. So I find I don't need them synced anyways.
