Not 100% sure of the ins and outs, but exchange 2003 has to have SP2.
Also, check this http://thelazyadmin.com/index.php?/archives/409-Configuring-Direct-Push.html
Might help!
Good luck!
Hi,
forget the native MS Push, try OLX Mobile Access from www.gangl.de. Been using this since 2005 and had no probs at all. Absolutely recommended !
This really depends how you want to sync your e-mail. If you want Push, you will need to have exhange server 2003 with SP2 install and have WM5 with Push technology. If you just want to download e-mail everytime you connect your device to the internet, you can do it with any version of exchange 2003 and almost any version of windows mobile.
Also, to get e-mail directly fro your exchange server will depends on your server settings. But you will at least require the following informaton:
1) Server address
2) Username (this does not necessary be the same as your e-mail address, it is the actual username that let you log onto exchange server. Usually it will be the same username as your Outlook Web Access for Exchange 2003)
3) Password (for the above username)
4) Domain (this domain is necessary or else your pocket pc will not be able to access the proper location where your e-mail is located)
Once you have all of the above information, you can either set it up on Active Sync on your PC or on your PPC. To do it on PPC, open Active Sync, Menu, Configure Server... enter all of the above information (remember to click SSL encryted if your server is encryted {most likely it will be}). Then go back to Active Sync, Menu, Options... change all of the data that you want to get from exchange server (ie: Contacts, Calendar, etc). Now you are all set. You just need to connect your device to the internet, open Active Sync, click on the Sync button, it will automatically fetch the information from your server. For Push to work, simply leave your internet connect open, go to your Comm Manager, make sure the Push symbol is Green (or On). Your e-mail will automatically be downloaded to your PPC once it arrive to the server. I will not leave Push on if you are using GPRS or HSDPA as e-mail send to your mobile device will not have been SPAM filtered (unless your server admin has the SPAM filter turn on but it is unlikely as this will restriction user control, normally SPAM is filter by client software like Office on PC), so your internet connect charges can ge quite big!
Anyway, hope this will help. Ciao.

One more note, if you are using Vista, it is about 100 times easier... you just need to have your Microsoft Office Outlook setup to connect to your Exchange server and it will automatically know what settings needed to put onto your pocket PC :O)
And setting it up on Outlook could be quite easy as well if your Exchange Server has auto-configure utilities to download (ie: allow you to download the .prf files for your account profile and you can just import that to Outlook and everything will be automatically setup.). Hope this help and not too too complicated for you.

Hi folks,
you don't need exchange. Although i have one, i mentioned OLX Mobile Access which also supports MS Outlook without Exchange, it's called OLX Mobile Access Personal. You can download a 30 days trial.
And you should, for this one is really cool. It even supports Outlook Notes !
Setup and configuration is in english, so don't mind the german website.
I have my polaris setup with my @o2.co.uk email account and it works well. Instead of setting outlook to check for new messages every 30 mins or so I would like to get push email working. What do people recommend? In the comm manager, the microsoft push email option is greyed out
Thanks
Allan
I'm hoping to use push with Exchange 6.5, is this viable over O2?
Push emails are only available on exchange 2003 onwards, as it's a microsoft technology. You can use push emails with a windows live account using the windows live program

We are using Exchange 2003, so fingers crossed.

o2.co.uk only supports POP3 email protocol which is not compatible with Push email. Only the MS Exchange protocol supports Push.
You can setup O2 email to auto-forward to an MS Exchange acount if you have one available.
If you don't have MS Exchange already you could look at BT Business Email (£7.50 + VAT per month) or mail2web.com Personal Exchange (€4.95 per month).
Or you could use Emoze - free for personal use
Works well on my TC
Why don't you use HTC mail? easy set up in less than 2 minutes and you can access all your POP3 IMAP mail as well.

I had a look at emoze but I cant find a version to push pop3 for the HTC range. When I go to the website all of the phones avaiable for pop3 push are Nokias, an LG and a Samsung.
just access the mobile emoze site (m.emoze.com) and you be able to download the client. another option is to use mobipush it doesn't install any client uses activesync.
I use mail2web. You just forward all your other email accounts to it, and they appear in your mail2web account which is push email. There is a free version of this, and it's very good. That's the one I use. Been using it for over 6 months without a hitch.
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,
tsfnet
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:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmob...ketpcphone/email/company/exchangeoverair.mspx
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
M
No solutions?
Maybe using another email client?
thx

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.
Hi I just downloaded windows live onto my verizon xv6800, but when i go into setup new email account in outlook and enter my email address and select automatically get settings, it then says found settings for msn.com, but then it just transfers me to windows live. I cannot get outlook to send and recevie messages. Any help you can offer would be greatly appreicated.

Do you have a service (or work) that provides Exchange or push email?

Yes my dear we have "lotus v 7".

I might be completely off on this one, but it is my understanding that you need an e-mail service running on MS Exchange Server to support Push Mail on the Windows Mobile platform (e.g. mail2web.com or emoze.com). I don't think Lotus can be used in place of MS Exchange Server.

I think you are correct. I believe Lotus users need to install a 3rd party solution for push email. I could be wrong though.
Yep we use lotus notes at work and its a complete nightmare. There's a lot of 'workarounds' but I've not found anything reliable. The fact that I can't sync my data as well as I could with Outlook is putting my off getting another windows mobile phone.
Seven software has a product that lets you do push from a Domino-based mail server but it requires software to be installed on either your Domino server OR on your desktop. If you install it on your desktop, then you can only get mail pushed while your PC is logged into the network. It's called a "workgroup connector". It works great, but it isn't quite a simple as if you had a Exchange, POP3, IMAP, or OWA accessible mail server. If your Domino instance does have POP3, then you don't need that, and and can simply use the phone software.

Seven is otherwise great software. Works like a charm.
Kerio Emailserver has activesync enabled, and is superior to Exchange.

Check the first link in my post above. Its for Seven software. It works like Blackberry for alot of different accounts and is simply awesome IMO.
What type of account are you trying to push mail from?
I got my orbit 2 yesterday and don't know how to make it talk to my exchange. any ideas?
To the people using push email... how much time your battery works.
I just bought a polaris one week ago, and if I activate push email my battery deads after around five to six hours.
The same happens with my previous phone (an N95).
I wonder if this feature is really usable at all.

Hey guys,
I'm on Windows phone temporarily while my HTC OneX is being fixed.
I'm having a frustrating problem with my email on a Nokia Lumia 610.
Using a POP account the windows phone downloads my emails without any problems. But, once I download the same emails on my PC, the windows Phone decides to remove(from the phone) the same emails rather than leaving copies like both Ios & Android. This is highly frustrating when forwarding Airline tickets or schedules you want to save for later reference. Today I missed a bus because of it. Thanks Microsoft
Anyone know how to fix it? The email settings seemed too dumbed down to be of any use.
Cheers.
First suggestion would be to use an email protocol that is merely old, instead of completely obsolete. POP3 is from the 80s, and it shows. Does your provider seriously not offer IMAP access? There are plenty of perfectly good and free emails providers which do... Some of them will even pull email from other inboxes for you.
Second suggestion, if you absolutely must use POP3, would be to make sure that both the phone and PC are configured to "Leave a copy of messages on the server" when downloading. My best guess as to what's happening is that your PC is configured to download and remove the messages from the server. Then, when your phone syncs with the server again, it sees that the messages it had previously downloaded were deleted from the server, so it deletes the local copies as well.
That's exactly what is happing. I just think its the wrong way. Even my old Nokia dumbphone from 5 years ago left copies of downloaded emails on the phone. As does the Iphone & Android.
Thanks for the help anyway. I don't think Imap is an option.
Gmail, as one example, supports IMAP (for free) and I believe it can retrieve mail from a POP3 server for you too (although I haven't tried). Alternatively, you may be able to set up your POP3 account to forward mail to a Gmail account. IMAP really is just a superior protocol.
Is there some reason you're not keeping the messages on the server after download? I guess I can see why you'd prefer that the phone not remove messages that were removed from the server, but given how little synchronization is possible in POP3 anyhow, I actually think that behavior is better than nothing (although perhaps it should be configurable and for some reason isn't).
I was able to switch to IMAP, but my WP is still deleting the mails after the PC downloads them. UGH.
If I let my PC email client leave the messages on the server, it will constantly re download them. (I think).
I'm sure this is a WP problem/oversight as multiple other devices work correctly.
If your PC email client constantly re-downloads message that it itself has chosen to leave on the server, you're using a truly outrageously bad email client! Even with POP3, it's quite possible for a client to list the messages on the server, and then only download the ones it doens't have. This is how all major email clients work (Outlook, Windows [Live] Mail, Thunderbird, Apple's Mail app, the WP7 email client, etc.) Even better, though, would be to also use IMAP on the PC client, as that way you could truly keep things in sync between the phone and the PC (for example, if you read a message on the phone, it would be makred as read on the PC when you got home, and if you send a message on the PC at home, it would be visible in the Sent Items folder on the phone too).
