Ok, here's the deal. I've started an Exchange 2007 server that I've been offering for very low rates to the users of this forum. Specially the Hermes users, although other people have managed to find their way to the Hermes forum. Long story short, now that I have a Kaiser, I am re-posting the thread here...also the previous thread is getting VERY long and I hope to open up new information here, because new people just don't want to read 57 some odd pages .
If you want an account, I will require a $5 monthly donation to setup an account (this will be done through a subscription and paypal). I feel this is a fair amount for whoever wishes to donate. I will keep the old link for those that wish to donate above what I already ask for. After you submit the donation, I just need everyone to send me all their information in THE BELOW FORMAT:
First Name:
Last Name or Initial:
E-Mail address requested: [email protected]
Alias: [email protected]
Password:
It will include an alias and Outlook anywhere access (use Outlook with this account). With each account you can have an alias setup so that your recipents see your email address as anything you like! (although this has to be a working e-mail address, e.g. [email protected]) Also, for an extra $5 per account I can automatically forward your pop3 or IMAP e-mail to your new exchange account.
Go to http://getztek.com/paypal.html to make your donation. If and ONLY if that URL doesn't work for you (some have reported problems) use http://getztek.com/paypal2.html
The Outlook Web Address is now https://mail.getztek.com/owa/.
So if you like the service and feel that you can contribute, please send paypal payments to [email protected]. Anything helps, even if it is just $1.
If you do not know what Exchange 2007 is or offers, please google it before making any decisions about e-mailing me.
Also, please give me at least 24 hours to set up your accounts once I receive your information. Usually it will be far less than 24 hours. Thanks.
MOST IMPORTANT: do NOT e-mail me directly. All communications about Exchange 2007 must go through PM. If I receive an e-mail I will simply ignore it. This is done to simplify everything. When I have to spend extra time to figure out if you e-mailed me or PMed me, it just slows me down and e-mail's are easier to lose. Thanks for your cooperation.
Here's the setup info...I feel it's pretty thorough, but if anyone wants to add anything just let me know.
Setup on Outlook 2003/2007:
If you have an existing Outlook profile, follow steps 1-4..otherwise skip to the next section. These steps are for XP based machine. If you have Vista it will be similar but not exactly the same.
1. In Outlook, go to File --> Import and Export --> Export to a file --> Personal Folder File (.pst) --> click on the root folder in this window and choose “select subfolders” --> Click Next --> click browse and choose a location and file name for your .pst file. I suggest the desktop. --> Click Finish --> Click OK.
2. Let Outlook finish exporting your data. This make take anywhere from 1 minute to 30-45 minutes depending on how much data you have (e-mail’s, contacts, calendar).
3. On your XP Machine, go to Start, Control Panel.
a. Make sure your Control Panel is set to Classic View (Upper left hand corner of the window). If it says “switch to Category view” then you are good, but if it says “switch to classic view” then you should click it.
4. Double click on the Mail Icon within the Control Panel.
a. Click on “Show Profiles”
b. You should see your profiles here, most people will have one one and it will be called “Outlook.” THERE IS NO NEED TO REMOVE THIS!
c. Click “Add” --> Type in a Profile name (e.g. Exchange 2007) --> Then proceed to step 1 below.
-----
1. If using Outlook 2007, At the prompt where you choose manual. If using 2003, ignore this part and proceed to the next step.
a. add a email account and choose Microsoft Exchange.
2. Microsoft Exchange Server: server.getztek.com
3. Username: Full Name given at Signup.
4. then hit More Settings
5. then click on Connection
6. then click on "Connect to Microsoft Exchange using HTTP" and then click on "Exchange Proxy Settings"
7. then type in mail.getztek.com for the URL
8. make sure SSL is checked
9. click on fast and slow networks, and choose basic authentication
10. Click “OK” twice
11. Then click Check Name
12. And the username/password box will pop open
13. Type in GETZTEK/User (this user is your e-mail address. For Example: your email address is [email protected], this is johndoe)
14. Type in Password
15. Server Name and User Name should now be underlined.
16. Congratulations! You are finished!
Setup on your PPC Device:
----
1. Start -> Programs -> ActiveSync -> Menu Configure Server
a. Server address: mail.getztek.com
b. Tick on ssl connection

6. Password = ****
7. Exchange server = mail.getztek.com
8. Check that server requires ssl....
9. Uncheck everything under advanced.
10. It should now work!

did anyone actually pay for this? i had started one cpl of years back and everyone wanted freebies, so i gave up. good luck.
I had a quick look through the thread in the Hermes forum and it seems like quite a popular service. Can I ask what kind of connection it's running from? Also, the alias thing interests me a lot and would make it so much more useful than the mail2web service I'm using right now. How does that work exactly?
I currently use DeniaL's service and it's been great. I started using it with my Wizard, then my Hermes, now my Kaiser. Very little downtime and worth the $5 I spent on having an alias that I can now use for my work emails.
I do like having push & html emails. Having the 'remote wipe' function from Outlook Web Access could come in handy if I ever lose my phone.
I too use his service it works like a charm for me.

It's running from a FAST dsl line in my office. The alias is basically a way of tricking people receiving e-mail from you. Basically the e-mail client will show whatever "alias" you want, but the actual e-mail gets sent through Exchange. So if you have a gmail account, and you want people to see and reply to said account...then you can just forward your gmail e-mail to the getztek account and it creates a full circle of PUSH mail with WHATEVER e-mail address you want.

So it's just a reply-to setting, or something a bit more funky than that?

That's the basic jist. It's just a trick so that when people hit "Reply" it goes to your alias address instead of the getztek one. It's not super complicated.
Ah right. I was thinking it was something crazy where it somehow shows mail as coming from the alias, rather than just replying to it. I was wondering how such a setup would avoid spam filters and such.

Any comments on how much we can use up? 1 gb? thx
Noob question - so this will allow those of us who currently use BIS (through blackberry connect), to enjoy the full benefits of BES?
I'm on board with DeniaL and it works great on both my Treo 750 and my 8925.

You get 1 GB of space. Up to 5 GB total. Each additionaly GB is just a flat, one time $10 charge.

I'm not super familiar with Blackberry's as I don't particularly like them. But if you can configure a blackberry with Exchange access (I think you can through your carrier's website), then you can use this service. It is true push, usually takes 3-5 seconds to receive the e-mail, obviously dependent on the speed of your wireless device.
I'm very interested in this - but was just wondering what sort of battery life people get while using the Push Email service?
I'm specifically wondering about anyone that's using 3G for their data settings, as ideally I'd like to have emails coming in and still be able to make/recieve calls!
Is the Kaisers battery able to last for a day (16-18 hours between charges) while recieving/sending Push emails on a 3G data signal with the odd occasional call?

I've been using 3G on the tilt since i got it, and the battery life isn't great, but I get through the day with about 15% juice left around 8 or 9 pm. I usually unplug the phone around 8am. I use the device for lots of phone calls and I play a lot of monopoly while waiting for things, so I would think the battery should last 16-18 without those two factors.
Don't forget that discharging and charging the battery will condition it somewhat. These phones are pretty much brand new (especially the Tilt), so battery life will improve to a certain extent over time.
Hi everyone
I was just wondering about what are cool program that you could use on the wing using the Data plan ( internet).
I currently have http://www.palringo.com/ which is a messenger program that runs on with data plan. It really nice program and for people that like to chat with aim, msn messenger etc...It doesn't require TXT plan.
I was also wondering about my mail. When i go to the AIM site to check my mails only see text, not picture what so ever..Is there something wrong with my phone or is just not mean to be??
aad4321 said:
is it an @aim.com? im sure thats a pop3 email account. Google pop3 settings for an aim account, and you can set it up so it uses the mail application on the phone, instead of using internet explorer. you can also set it to check for mail automatically anytime you want

Hi i kind of follow about what you said and instead of me cheking my emails on the internet explorer(My wing), I set up the email on my phone..So now i get my message on my phone directly but most of the picture theu dont display.. So i told my friend to send me a picture to my email, when i got the email and the attachment. I couldnt download the attch. or view it.. So i told him to send it as when you insert a picture . When i got the new messg. i saw the picture but i wasnt able to sae it to my phone.
** is there any plug-in for these **
i tried to use chit chat the application was good and the voice was clear. but i found that its pre configured with a specific service called "weepee", i went to their website its in non english language. aslo i found a directory called chit chat in my sdcard contains a file called "profile" i edited this file to my asterisk server username and password using sip protocol it didnt work then i tried AIX protocol it works. so guys you can use AIX through this program just go and edit /sdcard/chit chat/profile put the server, username and password and here we go.
i really need voip, thanks for info
can you tell more about your discovery? (for noobs) i couldnt find any application called chit chat
i currently use google voice for int'l calls, any way to call for even cheaper?
Best VoIP client for Android is a little app called sipdroid. Get it from the dev's website as the one in the market does not allow calls in 3G or edge. It was one of the first apps i got and i've never paid for a call again. You have to create an account with Pbxes and configure there (read their tutorial) but once is set up is the most incredible app ever! like i said, haven't paid for a call in months!
hey, thanks for an answer
afaik sipdroid and pbxes isnt enough to place an int'l PSTN call, you have to have a sip provider e.g. Gizmo5, but gizmo's rates are higher than on GV, so not interesting
any other reliable sip provider? i tried voipuser but they want a non-free email address - what is that i have no idea. im not giving them my work email
I use Guava, pretty cool with googlevoice and a gizmo accounts work good. Sometimes there is a problem but most of the time it works.
Guava isnt on the market but can be downloaded at http://gizmo5.com/guava and trandferred to the sdcard.
@hihik as StreetGuru said Sipdroid is optimized to work with pcxes as I imagine same people took the lead in writing sipdroid.
Dont worry about giving them your email as they dont or very rarely send anything out. Why work email? How about your ISP email?
Anyway has anybody tried Crolix Communicator from market. It supposed to work with GTalk for voip calling gmail contacts.
I am waiting for Nimbuzz to inpliment voip but I assume they are having difficuly in codecs department.
Well, Google hasnt given us voice call feature in Google Talk application, I wonder why!
I have never understood why people have such a hard time coming up with email addresses. Get a dyndns address, register it to your public IP address, and put an email server on your home computer. Done. Unlimited email addresses with unlimited (aside from your hard disk space) storage.
Here is the configuration with sipdroid www.ippi.fr for opening an account (free with geographic number in 01.02.03.04 ou05 depending on where you live) test on android magic 32b and it works as well as in 3G wireless, to test my SIP number is 05 81 31 42 75, and my laptop that sounds (ca surprises people! ") think of you for sponsoring the opening of the account by putting in the box Rouhaud parrainnage. thank you in advance Here are the parameters to put in sipdroid Download link: http://sipdroid.org/ Go to the Android Market and are looking Sipdroid. Install accepting the warning. Sipdroid Start / Menu / Settings SIP Account Settings: Username: Password IPPI username: password IPPI Server: ippi.fr Port: 5060 Options: Use WLAN: Use 3G/EDGE check: check if your operator authorizes and s 'report thereon Preferred Call Type: SIP when available Advanced Options: - PBXes Features: - A green icon in the top bar will inform you that Sipdroid is connected to the network IPPI.
Sipdroid not working for Pennytel
I follow similarly for pennytel account (sip.pennytel.com)
I got the green icon but when I tried to call to the pennytel account, it says the user is not available.
It is a working account when used with Nokia E71 SIP setting.
Not sure what breaks.

@priyana,
Sipdroid is developped by PBXES.org and is fully optimized to work with pbxes. So creat a free account there and configure pennytel account within pbxes. You can have upto five sip registration with a free account.
There might be a beta of Fring for Android in a few weeks! Check out post #77 here:

I have exactly the same problem as yours. PennyTel works on my wife's E71, but not on my HTC Magic.
I would really appreciate any helps.

For step by step using pbxes.org, maybe you can follow this page:
http://seethisnowreadthis.com/2009/...-with-any-sip-provider-on-your-android-phone/
I think it should work with pennytel, but I have not tried.
Not too comfy putting my user credentials in pbxes.org.
What do you guys think? Is it really 100% safe?
100% safe? I should think so. But this question is not appropriate here as there may be just a handful sip users here. You should visit forums of voxalot , sipuser etc where you will meet nearly 100% sip/voip users.
PBXes is good and running like any other business?
If you are a free user than questions like are they trustworty or not seem hyprocritical. Buy their paid service ans see how good they are when it comes to receiving help and support.
Finally I figured it out how to call out through PBXes from my HTC Magic.
Thank you.

tested and working
Hi all, I'm self employed and receive most of my work via email with the details in a pdf or doc file.
If at home I just transfer the details to calendar on my PC which syncs with my google calendar and then onto my note calendar. From the note calendar I can tap the location field and navigate to the customer with google maps and, if necessary, tap the contact number to call the customer easily while on route.
The problem is this requires manually typing the data from the document into the calendar. Easy on my PC but a pain in the butt if I'm on the road at the time.
Does anyone know of a way to automate this so I can do it easily from my note?
In summary I want to be able to get the job details into the calendar (stock at moment but not set in concrete), specifically the address into the location field and contact name and number into the description field.
Would it work if I got them to send out as a calendar invitation, I assume but don't know for sure, that they use outlook.
Sorry for the long drawn out question, I hope it makes sense. Any ideas greatly appreciated. Love using the note for my jobs but need to be able to streamline it's use when jobs come in on the road. At the moment I have to open the email, download and open the attachment, write down the details and either enter them into a diary event or type them directly into phone/navigation as appropriate. Not exactly high tech

imo the simplest solution would be if customers would send you invitations from google calendar - when accepted would automatically get into your note calendar,
Thanks p107r0,
I think it will also work if they create a diary event on their system and invit me as an atendee. In theory I then get an email invite which, if I accept it will populate my calendar.
Just messing with it myself and seems to work. I'll have to get my companies to try it out if I can convince them.
genious question, brilliant idea for an app, someone should make it

What if you did some sort of mashup where your clients go to a google hosted google apps page with a google spreadsheet that is acting as a form,
in this they can type the requirements.... and perhaps can select / type who they are (or perhaps type their UID which does a lookup to prevent data protection act) that has an action of add to calendar + email alert for you with the attached PDF that they select in the form?
I might have a look in to this myself as it seems kinda fun!
Edit: Found this example, that is kinda close
https://sites.google.com/site/drupa...usiness/apps-script-examples/calendar-service
Second edit
Perhaps http://www.jotform.com/ can help.
Thanks fooby, at moment I'm working on getting them to set up a calendar event and inviting me as an attendee as I think that will work with a few tweaks.
Trouble is getting them to play with me

If you look up accounts in your setting I believe you can add another email to your phone.
Not sure if you can change it totally without loosing info.
If you're just worried about the email address, I think you can change the address associated with a given Microsoft account. You can also just stop synching email on the current account and add the other account as a normal email account (as opposed to the phone's primary Microsoft account), if you *really* only care about email.
Otherwise, though, I'm not sure if you have any good options. On WP7, your purchases and such were attached to your Zune Tag / Xbox Live Gamertag (same thing) and you could move those between accounts, then hard-reset the phone and set it up with the "new" account to have access to all your old games. It *probably* works the same for WP8, but I can't promise that.
This kind of DRM bull**** is one of the reasons I don't "buy" apps if I can help it. If you actually owned a copy of the app, you could just re-install it on your own device after changing the primary ID no problem... Same goes for Steam and such, of course.

So,this is the story.
When i bought Lumia 520,i wanted to sign in with my e-mail address hotmail.com. I received error,tried with a new alias(same error), so i had to make new e-mail address(outlook.com)..Few days ago, i reseted my phone to factory settings, then i tried for curiosity if my first e-mail work and worked .Now i want to move apps/games to old e-mail address hotmail.com (or merge e-mail addresses).but i can't..I know that in wp7 you could change in registry something( i read somewhere )...
I can change gamertag for free(first time),but e-mail address no.I've been talked with support but they didn't helped me. They gived me a free t-shirt for xbox avatar.....I think there is no other option..just buy again apps/games in old e-mail address.

I believe that if you go to live.com and log in, there is an option under accounts to link different addresses to your account, as well as set the primary. As I remember, would be able to use any/all of those to log in. I had this issue before when I set up a new email. Only problem I had after that was my phones address and the primary weren't the same and FB chat through the native messenger app would not work. I reset the primary and no issues after that. Try it and let us know.
