Hi, I have set up my Mobile Outlook for Exchange Server e-mail (Push mail). There is a setting to set all attachements to be saved on "Storage Card". I have clicked it. But, they are really storred at "Store" location which is the empty Extended ROM (10MB only). There is no way to set it up to save the at "Storage Card" itself. Some ideas how to solve it? Maybe something in the registry?

Hi, im setting up flexmail as an alternative to the built in email client on wm5 and I cant seem to find how to change messages/attachments to be saved over to the storage card instead of on the main memory.
Everytime I try to pull mail, my device runs out of memory and slows down to a crawl.
Also, another slight problem I just hit... I set all the options exactly as it said in the gmail config help... and Now, when I try to send mail via flexmail through gmail, its asking for "account credentials" ...
I set my username: [email protected]
I set my password: *************************
....but when I hit ok, its just stuck in a loop as if im providing it the wrong info. Anyone else experiencing this? I have not yet been able to send mail via ppc through gmail. All clients have done similar stuff.
I'll try to answer both the questions at the same time...First delete your present gmail account in FM 2007. Then set up a new version of the account following this process: When you start thru the menus to set up a new email "Account" and enter a gmail address FM will ask you if you want to use the default settings for gmail.com. Answer Yes to this. Now move thru the dialogs; the only thing that you will need to change/add is the gmail password. Do not change any of the other settings for gmail. You will eventually come to a dialog titled "Account Name and Storage". This is where you select the card as your storage. Enter the account name that you want, uncheck the "Store the mail messages...in local folders" and hit Next. You are now at a directory browser. Navigate to where you want the emails stored and/or create the folder for the storage and hit next. There will be a speed warning, acknowledge it, hit Finish and you are done.
This should work for you. I have never had a problem setting up gmail on any of my PPC's using this process. Now, if this still does not allow you to download mails I would haver to wonder if you are running thru a proxy that is causing problems.
Also, remember that gmail is not a "real" POP3 service, so there will be some problems using it (ex: I currently can only download emails 10 at a time...no idea why, and it worked fine 1 week ago...go figure)
HTH,

Thank you. Its working now. ^_^
is this a general problem? i've read the MS article on it, and have done "manage folders...ticked box by sent items" etc, but it still doesn't save the contents in the sent items folder.
anyone got the same problems or seen a fix?
ric
workaround!
The trick or workaround I have discovered is to set up a new mail rule in outlook:
Tools->Rules & alerts->New rule->Start from blank rule->check messages after sending. Now select "through the specified account" and select your imap account. Now select "move a copy to the specified folder" and select your imap sent items folder.
This works but you still have a copy in your old sent items in your personal folder.
HTH, Shaun
I don't have rules and alerts on my tools menu
IMAP sent mails should be saved by the server. If you are using a compatible server, then, it will work. See my IMAP Bible at http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=1247&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1 for more info.
@100thMonkey sorry, you have got to do this in outlook on the pc. If sending email from PPC then it will be sent using your operators smtp server. Using the above workaround you can still view sent emails from your pc on your ppc.
Hi,
I have a Treo 800w Windows Mobile 6.1 device that I am currently synchronizing via Exchange ActiveSync with an Exchange Server 2007 email account. I just recently needed to be able to also get email from an Exchange Server 2003 SP2 email account, so I set it up to access that account via IMAP4. It is set to pull email from the server every 30 minutes, and right now it set to download the most recent 7 days worth of email (although I'll probably change this to 30 days). I also need to be able to see my sent items, so I configured the account to also download my sent items (via "Menu" -> "Tools" -> "Manage Folders"). However, I'm having a real issue (which others have also experienced, see: http://forums.microsoft.com/WindowsMobile/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=3355528&SiteID=65) in that whenever I now send an email from this account, it shows up briefly in the Sent Items folder on my device, and then disappears. Further, when checking the actual Exchange mailbox (via OWA), it doesn't show up there either. It seems to disappear permanently. If I disable synchronization of the Sent Items folder and then send another email from this account, it obviously doesn't show up on my device, but now does show up in the Sent Items folder of the mailbox. This is a real issue, and I'm hoping someone can offer some advice.
P.S. I do have the "Keep copies of sent items in Sent folder" option checked in the "Message" tab when you go to "Menu" -> "Tools" -> "Options"
Any help or information is greatly appreciated! I'm wondering if this is a bug that we need to bring to the attention of Microsoft (and how does one go about doing that if it turns out to actually be a bug?).

When I sync my s710 with my PC, the email messages are saved on the s710 memory instead of the memory card. Is there a way to change the standard settings where to save email including attachments?
Yes, there is a way:
Thanks that works great!
I'm looking for confirmation or correction regarding my observation of a folder synchronization problem I see with ActiveSync.
Menu | Tools | Manage Folders | <hold stylus on folder to invoke pop up menu> | Folder Options
for ActiveSynch, Folder Options is not enabled, whereas with IMAP, it is.
This means that with IMAP you can choose FOR EACH FOLDER how many days of messages you want to download, and more importantly, the folder will not purge the messages on the client when given number of days pass. The benefit is obviously being able to move items to folders for safe keeping while the inbox stays lean.
With ActiveSync, it seems that all the folders obey the "download past x days" setting in the Email Sync Options set during the Outlook Email setup wizard, and all folders are vulnerable to the rolling "x-days" purge.
This difference forces me to keep an IMAP account for email while using ActiveSync for just contacts and calendar.
Is anyone else aware of this? Does anyone else agree or disagree?
Thanks in advance.
