E-Mail application

Is there an e-mail application that has an option to leave the e-mail to the server? I mean not to delete them? Like Outlook Express has as an option?

Use an IMAP server - this leaves the messages on there unless you delete them and then synchronise on your device.
Also, you can leave them on the server whilst using the Pop3 protocol - it should be something like "delete messages immediately" - make sure this isnt ticked and it should work.

the mail account I have is just POP3... There is not such an option...
Anything else I could try?

Are you serious? The standard email application doesn't have an option to leave email on the server for POP3?

The inbox for Pop3 does not delete messages. It defaults to leaving it on the server. Unless of course you delete it and resync.

nPop
Why don't you try nPop (http://www.nakka.com/soft/npop/index_eng.html)
Theres is a version for Windows and a version for Pocket PC

To tell the truth I haven't set up an e-mail account yet because I have a problem with the sim card.. But since there was no option about leaving messages on server I assumed it didn't!!! So, am I wrong? :roll:

No problem
If you are using Pocket PC Outlook (Inbox), you don't have any problem: it does not retrieve the messages from the server anyway.

Try WebIS Mail - I've used it for months now and find it really good. As an additional bonus, it's available free right now from Handango:

Thnak you all for your answers... I am OK with the e-mals, since it doesn't delete them from the server!!! :lol:
Is it possible to sync the contacts on a certain address book folder of the PC?

Sync POP desktop Mail box with PPC POP mailbox
Hi all
I feel that I am missing someting when it comes to the revolution of portable mail.
I have a desktop with outlook that picks up / Sends mail over pop.
I have a MDAIII with pocket outlook that picks up mail / send over pop.
I have activesync that puts my desktop mail on my MDAIII in pocket outlook.
now all this is fine since I can send and recive from both devices.
The porblem arises for me in the concept,
When at home I do my mail, then go out and check my mail over MDA then I reply to a mail and send.
If I do this over the activesync account it stays in the outbox untill I sync which is logical.
If I do it over the pop account it sends it.
What I would like to find is a mail program that lets me sync my mail "Sent items" from my MDA with my desktop.
In short how can I sync my MDA pop acount with a local outlook PST file to incure that I can send / Recive and have my sent items uptodate on both the desktop and MDA?
PS: I am a privat user thus dont have a exchange server.

is there a software which checks emails via HTTP.....caz i wanna use a software which can download emails from my hotmail account on ma pda ...........ne ideas guys ????
thnx in advnc

My understanding of Hotmail is that it is a web based mail system. I think (but am not sure) that you can upgrade for a fee to pop which allows you to download your mail to a e-mail client such as outlook. This would then work with the built in e-mail client on your PDA after you set up your pop account.
Mail itself can be sent in HTTP or plain text.

exchange. all folders

hello, my name is Borja, and i´m from Spain.
i want to buy this HTC Kaiser.
but i have some questions, maybe you could help me.
my email works on a exchange 2003 server, and y use in my computer the microsoft outlook RPC over HTTP.
1. could i have all the folders that i have in exchange? so, if all my email have for example 1 GB, can i have all my email in my future Kaiser? not only inbox, i want to have inbox, all folders tha i have in my microsoft outlook.
1.a. with all the windows mobiles can i sincronice all folders? or only with the profesional edition?
2.i need to work recieving all day emails, i think pushemail is the perect solution, but do you think is the kaiser good for this? i say that if the batry y so good for all day.
3. if you dont think the kaiser is good, could you tell me any HTC (or other) that it could be good for me? i use to have 1gb in my account of exchange
thank you so much for all
regards

Yes, yes and yes.
As long as you have Exchange Server 2003 R2 or later and outlook web access on your server, you can have direct push syncing - with all folders.
The only issues are: if you use rules to move email to other folders, you wont be notified about new mail for those folders - only the inbox; and you dont want 1gb of mail on a mobile device... but thats easy to fix - a) set a date limit on the emails you want to sync and b) a size limit it syncs.
If you then wish to download a bigger email or attachment, you just click on it and select it to download.

thank you
thank you!!
i need have all my emails, so i can download the first 5kb of all emails and if i want to read the all email or the attach... i´ll donwload all message.
ok.
could i download all the emails to the SD card? or in the phone?

You can route the attachements to SD card, but not the emails.
Still, most space is used by the attachemnts anyway.

Microsoft Outlook Web Access help needed.

Hi,
My law school uses Microsoft Outlook Web Access (OWA) for e-mail exchange and I am having a bit of difficulty getting it to connect to my ATT Tilt (w/ 6.1 default rom).
The main problem is that unlike my Gmail, the OWA doesn't have any options for enabling forwarding/POP/IMAP.
A faculty member of the IT department had sent out an e-mail last month with instructions on how to sync the OWA with IPhones and I tried to follow his instructions, but the problem I am now running into is that the Tilt requires a server name (I believe it is mail.uchastings.edu) and a domain name (?????).
I would appreciate any help if someone can help me with this. The server will not get the settings itself since I can't enable POP or IMAP.
I set almost everything perfecting, except when I tried to to connect to download mail, it would take me to the page that requested my username, password, and domain name. So i believe I am putting the domain name incorrecting since I tried a variety of my login.

Are you trying to use active sync? That is what it sounds like

I don't mind using activesync (although I prefer to be able to use the internet to access my mailbox).
I know you can access it through the web because when I attempted to get it working, I followed the following steps:
1. Clicked on Outlook e-mail
2. Server address: mail.uchastings.edu
3. Fails to obtain settings
4. I tell it that it is an Outlook server, not internet e-mail
5. Username: myusername
6. Password: mypassword
7. Domain: ????? (don't know what to put)
8. Asks me what items I want to sync (Mail, Contacts, Tasks, Calendar)
9. I click on Send/Recieve and it takes me back to the screen which asks for items 5-7.
That is the problem I am having and I believe it is probably the domain name that I am messing up on since I have tried to do a variety of my username and it won't work.
The e-mail server (OWA) is Microsoft Outlook, but it is inside a webbrowser. When I click on options, it won't give me a Pop/Imap option so I have to set it up as an outlook e-mail.
Hope that clears some items up.

You cannot sync Outlook Web Mail with Pocket Outlook in standard POP3 style. You would have to setup either Exchange Push Mail, or just log in to OWA using Pocket IE (gag).
The iPhone is able to sync using the Exchange protocol with its latest firmware that shipped at the launch of the 3G iPhone.
-Edit-
You need to uncheck the option for Outlook to auto detect your settings, and then select Exchange server from the options. I would then contact your school's IT department and ask them for the settings required to setup your phone to sync.

by active sync I meant wireless active sync through exchange. I would confirm the server address with the IT department and you will also more than likely need a certificate if SSL is used which it should.
domain I would imagine would be uchastings
From my experience with wireless activesync the certificate is 99% of the problem

Thanks guys for all the help. There is a guy at the IT which I have been e-mailing who is helpful, but the problem is he doesn't have a Tilt so he doesn't know the actual set up. I can post his set-up (which shows the servers, etc step by step) if that might be a bit more helpful to you guys also. I am hoping that once I get a chance to go up, I could meet him in person and see whats going on.

wireless active sync is all the same for windows mobile devices. The only thing that is different is that on wm6 devices importing the ssl certificate is a whole lot easier.
what is your the url for your owa?
the server name should be the same url minus the /owa part
for example if its blahblah.com/owa the server would be blahblah.com
be sure to ask for the certifcate

The url for the e-mail is owa.uchastings.edu.
When I got my first e-mail from the IT department exampling how to obtain access to the e-mail server, I was told that for the first time, my username for the e-mail would be uchastings\username. However, now I just user the username without the uchastings\ part to access my e-mail.
Also, would the server be owa.uchastings.edu? The IT rep told me it would be email.uchastings.edu.

Try This
For username just type the username without the domain.
For the domain try uchastings.local and see if that works.
And make sure that the box for SSL connection is not checked.

you might also try a program called Chronobis to sync Outlook OWA to your device.
Its very basic, but gets the job done

Not sure where you get this idea? POP3 and IMAP would work just fine if it's enabled, and more importantly, is exposed to the internet. It's not as nice as push email and most companies would not bother to expose it to the internet, but that doesn't mean it can't be done. He may not have access to it on his server but there's no technical reason it can't be done. It's just a standard pop3 and imap server using the standard protocols.

I would like to thank everybody for all the help and I was able to fix the problem with some help from a OWA forum.
The problem I was having is that the username should have been the username alone and then the domain name was just uchastings. That was it.
I have one more question I am hoping someone can help me with.
I use Microsoft Outlook 2007 on my laptop also since I can just connect my school mail and Gmail on there.
When I first connected my ATT Tilt to my laptop, it asked me what I wanted to sync and I choose Contacts, Calendar, Tasks, and Notes. Then I setup my Tilt with the school's outlook web access. It also asked what it should sync and I choose Contacts, Mail, Calendar, Tasks, and Notes.
Now on my Outlook 2007, when I choose Contacts, Calender, or Tasks, it gives me two options for each. For example in contacts, it has Contacts and Contacts from Personal Folder. Same for Calendar (Calender and Calendar from Personal Contacts) and Tasks.
Now my question is that are these two connected or is one from my Tilt and the other from Hastings OWA? If I choose to delete one, say from the OWA, will it affect the other? I am asking because all the items in each place (ie Calendar and Calendar from Personal Folder) are the same.
Thanks for the help once again.

Help me figure out how to synchronize emails properly

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.

Q: Exchange Email goes as Text / How to access Exchange Address book.

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.

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.

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.
