E-mail help!!

I have a problem with email:
if I try to send an email (not from gmail) with one of my accounts the email doesn't start.
But if I use a wifi connection it start correctly..
The same thing when I try to configure a new account: with the 3g connection I can't configure it, but if I use wifi it works.
it always says Impossible to connect with the outgoing server at the end of configuration, but the server is correct (in wifi it works)
I receive emails but I can't send.....
with any builds also the original
any suggestions?
thanks!

not really a fix to it but another email app that will work for you without all this hassle is the "K-9" email app via the market. Its free and after I was having this same problem with the email app that comes pre-installed with the G1 I downloaded this and it works and is even better looking then the original app.
hope this works for you.

Did the K9 mail app get removed? I am looking for an app to replace the mail app that comes with the phone but I'm coming up empty.

[Q] Connecting to enterprise domain email requires certain security features to be on

So my company's corporate email requires certain security features on my phone be enabled when you connect to it via the mail app. I'm guessing this is exchange.
It requires my lock screen to be pin-protected. It also has a disclaimer that they can access my phone remotely and delete email.
I don't like this feature at all. Is there a way to "trick" the network into thinking my phone actually has these security features enabled when they really aren't? I just want to be able to pull mail down and read it, I don't want the network to have access to my phone remotely in any way, shape, or form. I also don't want the network requiring any sort of configuration on my phone.
Thanks in advance!

You can try this .apk
I dont think its a bad feature especially if you lose your phone you can wipe it via your exchange server. I have that option via my OWA

Thanks for the help. I'm supposed to install this on my Captivate? I have mine rooted using Cognition, but for some reason I can't install it from Astro, it seems like Astro thinks it is already installed and just allows me to run it. When I run it, it looks exactly like the Android Mail app. Is this accurate?
Also when I setup the exchange account, it says this account needs to remotely control some security features of the phone. Do I allow this? Does the program fake the network into thinking that it has control over those features when it really doesn't?
I just need some help understanding how I'm supposed to use this. Thanks.

Goto your system/app folder and drop the apk in there. Reboot and then reload your settings. I believe it does bypass the security like you say. Accept the prompts as well.

so ???? will that save all my saved apps , whats the process to change my primary gmail to another gmail account ? ,
awnser was verry vauge .

you will have to root and back up all your apps with titanium backup, any app that requires an email address check(meaning it wont work without the email that purchased it) wont work but i dont think there are that many that do that..
then you will have to do a factory reset, set up your new email reroot and then restore apps....

What if you added a second Google account onto your phone with your new address and then just stopped synching the email, calendar, etc from the old one?

Any purchased apps are tied to your gmail account.
I don't know how to move that to a new account, or if it is even possible.
This is probably a question that needs to go to a broader audience than just captivate users, if not straight to Google's support forum.

ok thanks for the help all , i will try posting in a general section ! , apreciate it.

Disable Exchange Lock Screen to Use Google Now

I love the idea of OK Google Now, but have been told that it won't work if you are running an Exchange email account. Apparently, when you talk to it, you have to manually unlock the screen before it will do its thing.
Here's my question. Is there a way to disable the lock screen, so OGN can work hands free?
Thanks in advanc.

Use touchdown for exchange instead of native email app... even if it didn't do this I would recommend it.. Best exchange integration since leaving Blackberry..

Do you, in fact, know whether Touchdown doesn't require a lock screen?
Thanks.

Touchdown has it's own pin screen separate from the phones lock screen. So it still fulfills the Exchange requirements without locking up your phone.

So, "OK, Google Now," will work hands-free without having to manually unlock the Moto X if I use Touchdown?
BTW, I'm buying a Moto X tomorrow, thus the questions.
Much appreciated.

On the topic of the email client and Exchange Active Sync, the only OK Google Now function that works with a PIN or password lock screen is to make phone calls. I have the Moto X with an Exchange account set up using the default client and all I can do hands free at the lock screen is make phone calls. I'm no expert but one would think an Exchange Active Sync policy to enforce a lock screen PIN or password is determined by the account set up and not by the email application used. Just my 2 cents...

Touchdown sets up its own little sandbox that all the activesync policies will be applied to. So you can use the rest of the phone without locking if you choose. There are also Exchange policy bypass solutions out there if you have root.

I found that I could select None in the Security settings to bypass the lockscreen. So, now I can just say OK, Google Now and everything works flawlessly.
Problem solved!

For those who have enforced security settings, like me, selecting None, or anything your IT guys don't allow, won't be an option. In that case you can root, install Xposed, and then one of the Exchange security bypass modules within Xposed. If you already have the security restrictions in place, remove and re-add the Exchange account from your phone.
I went through all this just so I could use a NFC Skip tag in my car's holder with Google Now. I still use a PIN as only an idiot would walk around with a completely unlocked phone all the time.

I use the stock Exchange app and don't love the restrictions that it put son my device (because it takes the functionality of the phone away). I looked at Touchdown as a replacement, but it doesn't seem to integrate the calendar. I don't really care much about reading my email on my phone, I mostly just delete stuff I don't need or see if there is something real urgent to go to my PC for.
What I do value a lot from it is my calendar. I have my Outlook calendar synced as well and it merges with my Google calendar (and my girlfriend's Google calendar) in my agenda widget on my home screen.
That said, are there any good apps (free or pay) that can do an Exchange calendar only, and potentially don't require the same restrictions as the full setup? OR, can I get the calendar from Touchdown to integrate into my Google Calendar app/agenda widget somehow?
I suspect it probably isn't possible, but I'd love if it was.

Touchdown emails notification truncated

I'm running Gear Manager 1.5.120903 and Software UAMK7 on Note 3. I'm considering returning my gear because i don't not get full body notifications from Touchdown, my work email exchange client, I do get the title of the emails but to see the full body I have to go manually into the app on the watch. On the other hand gmail works just fine. Any fixes?
I understand the Sony SWII gives full email content notifications.

I believe that it is because your Outlook server has security settings that make it that way. Mine did. Also made it so I had to have a lock screen with a pin code to unlock.
I Google searched Outlook no pin for android 4.3 and found a solution that worked. I had to flash a zip file.
Anyways. I think the issue is with your email server. Not the watch...

Thanks but can't root my phone as IT can tell. However why does Sony S2 work? Just bought one today and the touchdown email comes thru as a notification complete with entire email body

My company changed over to requiring Maas360 and TouchDown for accessing the 2010 Exchange Server. I poked around through the TouchDown settings to find the new server address and was able to setup my work account using the stock email app. TouchDown is still installed but pretty much disabled. I have had no issues with my work email account and get most of the email body on my gear. Don't know if this will work for you, but it's worth a shot.

I'm fairly certain that this is because Touchdown isn't specifically designed to work with the Gear, and as a result it's just trying to do its best. If Nitrodesk updated their software to specifically communicate with the Gear it'd work ok. You may want to send them a request email, I'm probably going to.
