Activesync 4 and non-Outlook email - General Topics

Hello
I've been having a look at AS4 and it seems to me that it won't sync *anything* unless Outlook is the default e-mail client.
Is this correct?
AS3.8 lets me run other mail clients and syncs Outlook contacts and addresses, but obviously not the mail.
TIA,

Joining POP3 and Outlook Mail

Hi,
I've set up a Gmail POP3 mail account on my Alpine phone and it works great. The only thing is, that my Outlook at home is also configured to download mail from Gmail under POP3.
This creates the funny situation where I have Outlook Mail and POP3 on my phone (two different "mailboxes") that contain the same data (depending if I synced with my PC or retrieved directly from GMail).
Is it possible to unite the two?
Thanks,
Yoni

Send mails from "Outlook E-mail" account

Hello,
Is it possible to send mails from the "Outlook E-mail" account which is synchronized with my Outlook from Windows mobile phone ? When I want to answer to a mail, it is saved in outbox and then after next sync my Outlook sends it. so i always have to use my own configured mail account there. and answering on a mail from "Outlook E-mail" is not possible...
Hi,
for doing this, you need to configure your mobile device to fetch e-mail directly from your isp's mailaccount via pop3 or imap. that's something completely different from active sync.
be aware, if you configure pop3 you need to leave a copy of the mail on the mailserver for pop3 downloads messages. in that case you'll get your mails only on one device (mobile OR pc/notebook). the solution would be imap.
so you need to configure your mobile device just like your outlook account on you pc/notebook (server, username, password).
Plus, you'll need to have a look on your data transfer. if you access you mailaccount directly, the mails charge your dataplan. so take care of size limitations while configuring your mobile device (only headers prob, and limit size of attachments unless you do not want to download huge mails).
Hope this helps,

No other way?
I have my outlook account, synchronised with all mail downloaded at the office and an imap account to retrieve emails on the go. As the imap account is cleared after office download, there is no archive inside. Both accounts are linked to the same email address.
I would like to be able to work on my mails (outlook account) and then send replies thanks to the imap account.
In office 2007 there is an option to enable you to select the account to be used for repling or sending emails. No such option in WM6?
Thanks
Michel
Ps. On top anyway to retrieve several emails accounts in one go?
I think you are looking to sync your company email. You will need your IT dept to set up Exchange for you to do this:

Thanks.
Sadly I'm not using a Microsoft Exchange Server.
Outlook is directly retrieving emails from my imap server (sync with my Kaiser). When I'm roaming, I retrieve mails on the imap server directly.
I'm not able to reply to mails previously sync (outlook account) when I'm not at the office - This is an issue as I'm consultant and I stay days without coming back to my home base.
Thanks for your help
Michel
Message up.
Sorry & Thanks
hey man i hated that too i thought that m$ didnt make this a thing you can do out the box.. just download emoze or another similar app that will push everything to your phone and from your phone to your comp.. if i were you when you do this dont have it push your contacts because when you plug in to active sync it doubles
Thanks - I will give it a try.
But it is weird it is not possible to select the account to be used when sending/replying to emails.
I tried to copy/past my answer from my outlook (sync) account to my roaming one and this is not even working.
Any other idea?
Thx

No solutions?
Maybe using another email client?

pocket outlook is gimped without exchange... also, exchange 2003 has push enabled if it's up on service pack but lacks html email and some other instant sync capabilities that 2007 has...
if i didn't setup my own server i would def say paying for hosted exchange is worth it... ive messed with all those other sync/push clones but nothing comes anywhere near to the functionality/ease-of-use of having direct sync with exchange.
I will check for an hosted exchange server.
As a temp solution I will try FlexMail 2007: It is possible to reply to sync mail with another account.

Would this fix your problem? Set Outlook on your PC to "Leave a copy of messages on the server", and have your Kaiser retrieve all your messages from the IMAP server directly, whether you're in the office or not. If the Kaiser is connected via ActiveSync, it will use your PC's internet connection anyway, so no extra network charges.
That way all your emails are in one account on the Kaiser, and you could even turn off Outlook mail syncing in ActiveSync and reply directly to emails from the IMAP account on the Kaiser.
If you can't find "Leave a copy of messages on the server" in Windows Outlook, on my version (Outlook 2003) it's under Tools/Email Accounts/View or Change/Change/More Settings/Advanced (well hidden).
Can't confirm this option is there for IMAP - I use POP3 myself.

I haven't done too much looking at exchange hosting solutions but I think $10/month is the minimum you'll find... mail2web appears to have good hosting solutions.. you can try out their free service but it requries you to use their email address unless you upgrade to the $10/month plan.

Changing default mail account in M2d

I just installed M2d. Searched the forum, and cannot find a way to get it to display my gmail account, and not outlook.
Any help? I am on a XV6800 running DCD agps rom. Gmail is set up as another account.
Don't think it's possible
I am pretty sure that M2D only can interface with pocket Outlook so GMail won't be possible. I forwarded my E-mails to my Outlook address, so I get all my E-mails in M2D, but the actual G-mail account is probably not possible to access from M2D.
Outlooks handles Gmail via IMAP
The way I'm reading my GMail accounts is via Outlook. When I added the two accounts, outlook automatically detected the IMAP configuration. Therefore, I can "read" all my email accounts directly on Manila tab (Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail and Exchange)
I use push email with my gmail account through outlook, and so far its been working great for me.
I use mobipush to do that, here is the signup page if you are interested.
I have my Gmail account setup in outlook (two email accounts for that matter) and they both show in M2D without a problem. I have a BA running 6.1 build 20758...

Active sync and exchange

Hi all,
Have a question about Outlook 2007, exchange and activesync 4.5. If I set up an exchange email account on outlook 2007 am I able to still sync my outlook data (contacts, calendar, etc) and not the exchange data? I don't want to sync any of the exchange stuff to my PPC (touch HD) and only my regular outlook contacts, calendar, notes, etc. (not the email though since I have the HD already pulling the email from the exchange server).
Thanks,
Ho'okani
