This is more an Office question than a Tilt question.
Is there any way to accept a calendar invitation from the device itself? I get emails all the time for appointments and the only way I have found to get them on my device is to accept the invite through Outlook then sync my device. If there is another way I would appreciate knowing how to greatly! Thanks in advance.
I accept calendar invites all the time directly from my device. What kind of email are you using. I'm connecting to an Exchange 2007 server and sync'd via PUSH for everything. Not sure if that has anything to do with it.

When i get my kaiser, i will be setting it up to sync with outlook at home (via a gmail server). This will sync all my mail with outlook, but I am wondering, is there any way to actively send and recieve mail, that would be reflected in outlook at home, on my Kaiser (without using gmail's website).
I believe this is a no, where i can compose messages, and they would be sent next time i sync at home, and where i will only recieve messages when i sync at home, but I am hopeful that there has been some change with this, as the last time i used this type of stuff it was with a windows mobile pda, with only wifi (i.e. not a smart phone).
Thanks for any and all input.

I think (and others here may have much more elegant solutions) that the easiest way to do what your asking (or at least what I think your asking) is to simply set Activesync on your phone to sync manually (and sync it only when you are at home). If you can elaborate on what it is exactly you are trying to do a better answer will be forthcoming.
this is what i have set up now:
My home comp, set up with outlook 2007, vista, etc.
My HTC Kaiser 3G via AT&T.
They sync when i am at home, so any messages i have composed on the Kaiser get sent, and any emails i have recieved since my last sync get updated on my phone.
If i set up an email account on the phone, it will use push email, and then i will be able to activly send and recieve messages trough 3g while on the go.
Is there a way (other then Exchange Server) to be able to activly use my Outlook Email account on the go, and have those changes reflected in the Outlook on my computer, without setting up a seperate account for email only on the phone?
Hosted Exchange?
These questions are specific to the Kasier but more to how ActiveSync works.
The only way that I know of to sync contacts, calendar and email with Outlook is to use Exchange. You can certainly sync POP email accounts and Hotmail accounts, even Gmail accounts one your phone and the contact info with Hotmail but not calendar entries.
To me the most comprehensive solution would be to get a hosted exchange account and then sync with it. You can install Outlook on your computer and connect via RPC over HTTPS (if using Exchange 2003) or Outlook Anywhere (if using Exchange 2007) Hosted Exchange services are not very expensive and they work well. Simple google search will give you all the details.
There is even another Microsoft Exchange thread on this Kaiser forum that mentions 2 different "free" hosted exchange servers

Hello
Firstly, please accept my apologies if this question has already been answered elsewhere.
I have recently purchased a TyTN II or Kaiser or..... and have the following problem. I have a pop3 email account and at present my emails are downloaded to Microsoft Outlook on my desktop pc. I have installed Microsoft ActiveSync and subsequently have synchronised my emails on my pc with my phone. I have recently set up the pop3 email account on the phone so now have two email accounts: the first being 'Outlook E-mail' and the second is 'Pop3' (as named by myself).
Is there any way that I can have one email account on my phone that will allow me to download my emails and synchronise this with Microsoft Outlook? What I really want to be able to do is download emails either to my phone or Outlook, and synchronise the two.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. I'm sure someone will have the answer!
Thanks.

I've looked around a lot but I can't find this specific issue mentioned.
My Diamond currently syncs well with my outlook, which receives emails from a few accounts and aggregates them in one inbox. This is good because I'm able to take them with me anywhere.
What I want is for the Diamond to also be able to download mail from my gmail account - which it does without a hitch - but this means I won't get that email in my desktop inbox. When connecting the device and starting activesync, it will pull new messages from my desktop index, but instead of moving the gmail stuff to the desktop, it just deletes all messages completely and there's no trace of them anywhere.
Is there a way to attach an account to the "outlook inbox" so that the gmail mails I download are added to it instead of to a new account? If not, is there any way to synchronize that new account to my desktop inbox instead?
This sounds very trivial, but I can't get it to work.
I am using Dutty's latest ROM (3.6b).
Email settings...
Have a look in your email settings on your device for your gmail account. At the bottom of one of the pages you'll see underlined 'Advanced Settings'. Tap on this and change the setting to 'Leave on server'. This way, you can receive it on your device, but when you check your mail back at your desktop, it will be there too.
Look under Send/Receive Settings?
That's the option currently set, and it does indeed leave the messages on gmail, but they are not automatically downloaded to my desktop if they were already downloaded to the Diamond.
I don't understand why it doesn't synchronize them with outlook on my computer...
Oh?

I'm sure why that is then. I use Tiscali email, and that downloads to my desktop whether I've already viewed them on my device or not. Perhaps someone else who uses gmail can help you... strange
in gmail, even if u leave the emails in the server, they wont be downloaded more than once. i know that, i am using a gmail account with my office pc as well as my home pc. and if i download an email from gmail using one of the two pc's, i cant download it again using the other pc, unless i go into the gmail server and "refresh" all emails making them as new. Same of course applies if you use a win mobile system.
Solution? yep and pretty simple. Have a new account in an exchange server, which can sync with your diamond. Have all your emails forwarded to this account. My diamond syncs only with my push-emailing exchange server, whilst all other accounts of mine are set in order to forward copies to the exchange server.
dunno if i made myself sufficiently clear... ?
How do I uhh.. set up an exchange server?
Is it seriously impossible to synch email I receive on the phone with desktop outlook? This is stupid. :/ One of the reasons I got the phone was that I could get emails everywhere, but it's useless if not only it doesn't synch it with the computer, but it deletes these mails automatically.....

i opened an account in a microsoft exchange server, to which i forward all my emails from other accounts. Also all my contacts and to-do list are in this exchange server, and are sync together with outlook in my other two computers (+diamond). I do so not just for sync but also because this is the best way for getting push-emailing... meaning my diamond gets the email right in the moment i receive it.
btw u can get a free email account in the following exchange server: http://live.mail2web.com/
Do you have imap enabled or just pop3? If you let the phone automatically setup your email then it will automatically chose pop3. Don't enter your email adress when configuring your gmail because it automatically sets up everything. Just enter something like [email protected] and it should give you the option to choose imap.
And make sure your computer also uses imap.
Hi Guys
When i get email on my topaz everything works fine but when i go home and check email on my pc whatever email i received durning the day is repeated but when i look at the mail on my pc, its deleted automatically off topaz next time i send and receive is this right?.
What if i want to keep a email on my phone.
HELP !!!!!
Yes that's right. If you want the emails on your phone then synchronize them with your PC's outlook. Consider your email account on your phone as a temporary store, and your OUTLOOK inbox on your phone as your permanent store.
Ok tks for that.
Is there no way to change like the iphone if you receive it stays on phone till you delete it.?
Tks
What email are you using? POP IMAP exchange or hotmail?

Knowing that i am using Pop email, can I keep the mails on both units? the phone and the pc? i need to have the control over the emails so i can delete them when i need.
Thank you
If you set both your PC and your phone to leave messages on the server when you delete them it should work ok. You'll have to keep on top of your mailbox another way though, deleting the messages via web mail or moving the mails in to folders or something.
Matt.
If you synchronize your Outlook email between your phone and your PC, then you will obviously have copies of your email on both devices and you can manipulate them to your heart's content.
Tks
Thanks Guys all sorted !!!!!!
Hello guys, I have a quick question. I am using Outlook Web Access to sync with my work Exchange 2003 account.
When I draft a new mail and send it to my exchange account. The mail is received normally (I meant Rich Text or whatever you want to call it). In other words I have all the Font formating options available when I reply that email.
But when I reply to an email via my device, it is sent as plain text. I hope you guys can understand what I am saying here.
Is there a way to make sure that my emails always go in rich text instead.
My other question is... How do I search my Exchange address book. In WM6.5, compose new email in my exchange account and I hit on the 'To', it use to open up the Exchange address book. I am not sure what is the process on the WP7.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
If I send an email from the phone to my Exchange mailbox it arrives as HTML when opened in Outlook 2010.
Also, when sending an email from the phone, as soon as I start typing in the To field I get a list of matching names in a box below as well as the option "search Outlook Directory" - which actually means search the Global Address List

Thank you for your response.
I am not getting the option for Search Outlook Directory when I start typing a name in the address book. I just get the list of names from my phone book.
Is your Outlook Sync via Outlook Web Access or directly with your exchange via your company's support?
Regarding the HTML mail... Well, If I'm sending a new email from my phone, it does send the mail in HTML format. But when I'm replying to an email, it sends it in Text format.
Can you clarify the above. Thanks.
I'm connecting directly to Exchange 2010 using Exchange Activesync.
Outlook always honours the format of the original email when replying - is this maybe what you are seeing with the email client on the phone ?

Hmm... I think thats the difference. I set it up by selecting the Outlook option instead of going Advanced and Using Exchange Active Sync. Actually I did not even know that option was there until you mentioned it.
I'll try that route and get back to you.
EDIT: Well, the issue is the same. I still cannot get to search the Exchange Address book / Global address book. The only difference I see from your set up to mine is, that you are syncing to Exchange 2010 while I am Syncing to Exchange 2003.
No, I also chose the Outlook option.

Exchange 2010 has many changes over 2003 and support for mobile devices, you probably cannot access the GAL in the same way as 2010 presents it to mobile devices.
My HD2 never integrated it but I could search it - the EAS client for Andriod allowed me to search that address space on Ex2003/2007 - I assume 2010 improves this support in WP7.
