I've had no problems to date sending/receiving email with my TyTN and now TyTN II/Kaiser.
However, this morning I discovered that I could no longer do this. Pocket Outlook reports "Error Synchronizing ... check your settings" message almost immediately when I try to send/receive emails.
None of the settings have changed. Just to be sure, I changed "WAP" to "Work" and "The Internet". The last two settings no longer produce an instant error, but the email just says "Connecting..." and then does nothing.
Which makes me ask the question - have Vodafone UK started blocking email? Anyone else having problems? The Internet and other applications can access the net with no problems.
Just tryed vodafone in the netherlands and it works fine.
Which email service?
I would guess its more likely a problem with the mail server.
I have no problems with Vodafone UK and connecting to my company Exchange 2003 server.
Hi freenfast!
I want to connect to my uni's Microsoft exchange Server.
I am not successful though.. and have read and searched!
I get an error message - error / support code - 80072ee2
I am wondering if I need some kind of certificate....
I was hoping to find a way to synch with the Exchange Server using,
1. my PC via a cable,
2. my PC via WiFi,
3. via GPRS when I am out and about,
4. via WiFi when I am out and about.
Should I be able to achieve all of these? OR am I expedcting too much !
Any help appreciated!

I believe if you go to https://(your university mail server)/server.cer in your Pocket IE, you will be asked to save the certificate. After you save it, you should be able to access your school's exchange server directly.
Hope it helps,

I have added a screenshot below. The message is
the requested url/server cert was not found on this server !
My servers address for email logon in is http://owa. uni name. co. uk
But I did type https://owa. uni name. co. uk/server.cer in Pocket Explorer !

hmmm I guess it works differently for servers running Microsoft version of Exchange Server. But I run a Kerio Mail Server that also has this exchange capability, I can simply get the certificate over the air. Let me check if my university gave any instructions on how to download the certificate (it there is any). Let me get back to you as soon as I can.

Thanks very much tariq_niazi !
I was told by the university that they do not use certificates but their information setting up a XP Laptop to work with the new server clearly states that you need to "check here" to Vaildate server certificate.
Then there is certificate called GTE CyberTrust Global Root !
As I had typed before, my hope is to be able to do these,
1. my PC via a cable,
2. my PC via WiFi,
3. via GPRS when I am out and about,
4. via WiFi when I am out and about.
Thanks for your time !

My university (Cal Poly Pomona) uses a certificate from Thawte Premium Server CA which is already in my Pocket PC by default. That is why I am able to sync with their servers using SSL. You can check and see if your school uses a SSL certificate that is preinstalled in your device by double clicking on the security icon in your browser when you go to your email login page. There are ways I remember to export a PC version of SSL certificate to Pocket PC certificate using a tool. I cannot remember but if you google around, you should be able to find it. I believe the file format for that SSL certificate for your Pocket PC will be der instead of cer in my case.
Hope it helps,

Yes, I just checked tools -> Internet Optons -> Conten -> Cerficates
and sure enough the GTE CyberTrust Global Root is in the tabbed list of Trusted Root Certificates.
There is also an 'export option' which then launchs a wizard.
There are now 3 options for the format to choose
DER Encoded binary x.509 (.CER)
BASE-64 Encoded x.509 (.CER )
Cryptographic Message Syntax Standard PKCS #7 Certificate ( .P7B )
I can then see if I choose, for example, the first one, that I have to name the file, choose a location etc and save it!
I guess I can save all 3 types, then find the directory on my Kaiser to copy them to!
Maybe device/windows/system/certdtls ?
Ofiaich !
Let me know how it goes, I am interested in seeing if this method works or not.
- TKN
I will ! I will post here!
Do you think I am correct with my choice of directory on the Kaiser?
I am search for info on that now.
Tomorrow, I might not post........... busy day... but Wednesday, I will definitely post..
thanks again !

As far as I know, you should be able to click on the cer or whatever file you got and it will install automatically. That is what happened whenever I downloaded the server.cer file directly from my mail server. I am not sure of placing those files in the folder you have mentioned but it does not hurt trying and see if it works.

Hi!
I got the certificate on my Kaiser now! Thanks! Imported it to the Kaiser through ActiveSynch
Now I have changed the ActiveSynch settings for calendar and mail, so it checks on the server..
I left Contacts Tasks and Notes on the PC,
I would have thought synching would be quick..
now I get the error message - error / support code - 80072ee2
again............ Hmmmm... nearly there....
I have a new question..! Any ideas what a 'device sms address' is ?
Sleep time for me !
Thanks again!

Hi!
I am still not successfull with this!
I can synch my Kaiser to the PC and synch contacts, calendar, notes, emails etc but still get the error message - error / support code - 80072ee2
I read elsewhere in XDA Developres to turn off the firewall. I know this is not a good idea, but tried it, no luck with synching, so switched it back on again.
I am frustrated that I can only synch when at home with the PC via cable !!

FIXED
I managed to fix this in the end. Turns out that Vodafone UK were not blocking emails after all
Go to Connections \ Settings and select "Select Networks".
I changed "...connect to the internet should connect..." to "My ISP" and then it all worked.
This has really puzzled me, because I have not installed any software, or changed any other settings. It just stopped working. I had a similar issue with other software getting data from the internet, which again involved changing a setting in Connections.
It's all a ball-ache to be honest, and probably one of the worst things about Windows Mobile.
Hi!
I tried that to see if it sorted my problems too....
But I still get error / support code - 80072ee2
I am sure the university is doing something with their server !!
I am out of ideas....

Hi!
got the Microsoft Exchange Server working now....
Outlook 2007 PC address on the PC was different to what I should use for synching with the Kaiser...!
Strange but T_r_u_e !
Attachments in Hotmail still do not work, but don't care...! The email throught M.E.S. gives what I need !
Ofiaich
Glad to hear it!

Hi
can anyone please help me in the setup of hotmail email on the touch diamond i am having great difficulty with this as not familar with these handsets i have tried to access it via internet explorer and through setting up a new email account under the messaging section but neither is working
any instructions you can give me would be great
many thanks
Do you have internet access via either activesync, WiFi, GPRS, EDGE, or 3G? If not, then you have found your problem. If so, then a little more information about the problem would help everyone to help you!
Click the live icon on your start menu and set that up
thanks for your responses yes i have the internet set up i have the wi fi and
3g ( which also changes to the h and g icons at times not sure what those connections are called)
I have managed to set up the windows live messenger and have tested that out which is working fine but not the accessing the emails part
many thanks for the help
Hotmail is really hard to set up now in Outlook 2007 because they made a paid subscription to have this option enabled. I think. I know i tried a few months ago and failed.

im unable to connect ot the net using pocket IE receiving a msg number 0x80072f78, but facebook and skype applications are working well. please help me
What ROM is this? And have you verified that you connection settings for what apps use which connection are all correct?
Goodmorning to everyone, i search all the threads but i didnt find nothing similar to my problem.
I use htc td for about 5 months, i dont use vodafone internet but only wifi.
I have serius problem with applications which use automatically internet to connect.
Such as Fim (facebook instant messanger), weather applications, xda facebook, midomi etc.
These applications seems that they cannot connect to the internet so they dont start.
All i get is some messages : dont find internet connection and things like that although i am connected via wifi.
Ps : internet exlorer also dont open (i get message internet explorer cannot find the page), although i can serf easily with opera 10.
Have anyone the same problem with those style of applications to support me?
I have to do some special settings?
