Activesync HTML Email issues - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development

hey ppl
big thx to Ivan!
Im using his V3 orig ROM, and cant get Pocket Outlook to display HTML Email from Activesync.
it is happy to display HTML from a POP3 account I have set up
however the option to choose HTML is greyed out for the activesync outlook whenever email is selected under Activesync connection settings. When I disable email, it will let me choose HTML, but re-enabling it looses the change
According to this: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb158527.aspx
ya should be able to view HTML email msgs synced from the PC
I was wondering if anyone could kindly please help.
thanks

SOLVED
w00t!! Microsoft released an update to Device Center that just appeared in my Windows Update list 2 days ago.
It has some small UI improvements, including the ability to change delivery format of Outlook Activesync email to HTML.
Im a happy camper now

Please help

Hello,
I am new and experiencing dificulty configuring my email with outlook, I have read past threads but none seem to cover the specifics of my dilema.
I use outlook 2003 to access my email, the email address is my own domain, I have outgoing mail SMTP and Incomming POP3.
I can sync my pc ok with outlook (so my emails, contacts, tasks etc are added to my orbit) but it doesnt let me configue my email settings (incoming and outgoing settings etc) under the outlook tab of the orbit, to send or recieve emails.
To make this clearer I when I set the email settings I have the choice to chose either POP3/IMAP4 or Outlook, If I chose outlook then it takes me to a wizard to configure exchange server (which I dont have) So therefore I have to chose POP3/IMAP4 which works but it sets up a different folder to the synced outlook folder.
So as it stands I can send and recieve emails from a pop3 account on the device but not the outlook account unless it is connected to my pc.
I hope this makes sense, however if you need any more clarification please ask.
Please please please help - I have little enough hair as it is but am losing more by the second trying to work out how to do this.
Thanks in advance.
Steve
outlook mail == using outlook on your pc to send the mail using what ever type of mail system outlook on your pc is set to use
if you want to mail without being connected to your pc you need to make a pop3/stmp setup on your phone
not all isp's who offer pop3/smtp mail accounts will you access them externaly though with other then webmail
Thanks for the response.
I can set up pop3/imap4 on the device easy and it sends and recieves no problem via the gprs network.
My problem is that if I want to synchronise any emails that have been sent to my device with outlook on my pc (so I have the same inbox on both) it doesnt work?
I hope this makes sense.
Thanks again
Steve

PushMail client

I have Qtek9000 with the latest JW ROM. I use the Outlook Mobile exchange PushMail. It works well, but I am wondering if there is any better PushMail client that I can use instead of Outlook? Now, I cannot receive Today notification if I recieve an e-mail which is filtered by Ruls to another than Inbox folder... I cannot open several e-mails simulteniously, there is no way to ask Read/Delivery confirmation, no way to change the current view of the Inbox and other e-mail forlder, .. the Sent items are sorted by "From" (i.e. my e-mail), not "to".. etc.
hhmm.. I am still trying to find any Push Mail client, but no success.... any ideas?

Flexmail 2007 is THE only client in my opinion. www.webis.net

I will try it.. but as i read, it use activesync acount (there is no way to set up separate exchange server)... and in order to use it, I must keep both - default outlook mail and Flexmail, which is not so good).
If it is possible JW to make some changes in the Outlook Mail in order to be able to sort the e-mails by "TO" (there is only an option to sort them by "FROM"). I need it when looking at "Sent" items
I just mentioned this article: http://blogs.msdn.com/outlook_mobile/archive/2007/03/13/wm6-messaging.aspx and found the Outlook in JW ROM is a littje bit diferrent from the shown pictures! On my device I cannot find the menu for Exchange server searching... If the Outlook in JW ROM is the latest WM Outlook version?
Exchange Sync - strange problem!
Hi, I use PushMail on my PPC (Qyek9000, WM6) to sync with our company
Exchange Server 2003SP2. It worked fine till 01st May 2007, when I suddently
stopped recieving any e-mails/contacts/tasks from Exchange server to my PPC!
It is still connected, it found and synchronizes the Folder list (only), it
count the number of e-mails inside the inbox, but DOES NOT retrieve ANY
e-mails/contacts. It just shows me "0 items". At the same time, I can send
e-mails and if I change something on my PPC (ex.new Task/contact) it
synchronized on the Server and I can see it on my desktop Outlook.... The IT
guys checked the server, but nothing found! I have deleted and reinstalled my
PPC exchange mail settings, but the same problem. Please any idea how to
solve it. Thanks!
You can actually set your pushmail exchange email account to sync outside of your inbox:
On your device:
Goto Messaging
Outlook Email
Menu
Tools
Manage Folders
You'll see a folder browser.
Inbox is default synced
You can now enable more folders for synchronization (for example your sent items)
This way you can sync your inbox and a couple of your selection of folders for specific people

I can and I did it! But the problem is that I still not recieve any e-mails on my PPC. In fact, it synchronize one-way - from PPC-to Exchange server, but not vice versa! I can see the folder list, but it does not "send/push" amy e-mails... Last week it worked normally!
The IT guy
Mine is working great (I am the IT guy), Make sure that you have the correct certificate on your PDA, or ask you IT guy to give you the certificate and reinstall it.
Then make sure to try your account with and without SSL.
Good luck, let me know…

The certificate is fine but the problem stil. I tried another PPC - Nokia, with Symbian, but the same problem. The result is that I can synchronize ONEWAY only - from PPC to Exchange, but not vise versa (from Exchnage to PPC). The IT department guys cannot find any reason and do not know what to do. I suggest tham to restrat/reset the exchange server... but still waiting
Problem Solved
The problem is solved! The reason for the problem was the Exchange Server's antivirus software (McAfee). We had to switch the mail scanning from "on demant" to "background scanning". Now it works
Sound complicated.
I am using live.mail2web.com and receiving mail at Outlook and is ok. Just need to set the exchange address, thats all.

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,
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.

How to synchronizing & send/receive msg from WM together?

Hello
Firstly, sorry for my english, it's not good, but I think you understand me.
PC: Outlook 2007, 1 mail account.
Pocket (Raphael, doesn't matter now) with WM6.1 and standard mail program from MS.
And now, I can do 2 things:
1. Synchronize mails from Outlook on my PC to WM device via WMDC (Vista).
Effect? I have all mails from PC in my phone, but I can't send/receive mails directly from mail program in WM.
2. I configured email account on my phone, I can send and receive mails, but I can't synchronize its with my Outlook on PC.
Both situactions don't answer me, I want to do all operations together.
Can I do this in WM?
Maybe another, alternative software can do?
If my "problem" is solved here, sorry for that and please copy here link to proper thread.
I will be thankful.
sorry for short answer, but im quite busy.
Do not sync mails via activesync
Set both your computer and phe pda to fetch your mails through IMAP4 not POP3.
You have to delete and recreate the acount in outlook ...
but then, you select the mail as read in PC, it gets marked as read in next synchronization on the pda and vice versa. same with deleting. And if you send the mail from pda, it gets to send items on PC.
hope it helps
Wow, thanks. That is it! Ingredible and... simple Works perfect to me.
Thank You once again!

Exchange email account in HD2

Hi,
I created an outlook email account in my HD2 to synch with my exchange server email. sync is running ok, but I can read the message in plain text format only not HTML. When I configured the account I chose HTML but once you make your first sync, it changes to Plain Text and it is grey out so that you can not change it!!!
any idea how can I download the emails in HTML format?
btw, if you create a POP3 account, then you can read HTML but the sync doesn't work the way the active sync do...
Regards,
Tamer

It is a setting in the email sync. You can do it from WM or from desktop (if you activesync to a desktop.
On HD2, it is not easy to get there: Settings -> Wireless Controls -> Microsoft Direct Push (click the words, not the switch) -> Menu -> Configure Server -> Next and you are about there.
Exchange 2003 or 2007
Full HTML email sync is only available if you use exchange server 2007 or 2010.
Thanks for the information Woffel.
and Alex, thanks for your help, but that only works if you sync with your PC not with exchange server.
I found some threads in the internet saying it is a bug in MS active sync software and it is been there for years.

Why? I am usually syncing with Exchange over HSDPA, although I also sync to Exchange via PC. However, my setting (for mail, contact etc) is "with Exchange Server".

probably you have exchange server 2007 or 2010. Do you know what is the version of exchange server that your mail server uses?
Your are right. It is Exchange 2007.
attachment problem
I have other problem, my outlook can't sync (download) attament - phone writes me that attachment will be downloaded in new "send/receive" but it isn't.
Settings of outlook client seems to be OK - "donwload size limit=> entire message; checked options Ïnclude attachment", without restriction of size. I'm using Exchange 2007 with "default policy" with settings checked "allow attachments to be downloaded to the device.
And for more info i can tell you, that with my old kaiser(WM6.1) it worked succesfully. All users with iphone have not problems with their outlooks too - so it seems, that exchange server setting is OK.
Help me pls, i can't live without attachment .
When you get a mail with attachments, don't you get the links in the mail header? Click it and you'll get the attachment.
Or do you want it already downloaded before you open the mail?

Ok so i Need help with this.. I sent myself an email with an attachment and when i get the email on yahoo on my phone, I can see the attachment picture next to the message but once i open the message i no longer see the links in the header.. how can i fix this??/
Have you enabled attachments and enabled the download of full emails in your mail account settings?

Thanks for the reply..
I dont see any option to enable full download of emails. Its my Yahoo account. However i think i found the problem.
I think its the account im sending the attachment from.
I logged in to my XX yahoo email on my pc and sent me attachment. HTC doesn't pick it up. The i logged into my AA yahoo email and sent myself same attachment and it picks it up.
I noticed that on XX account I have a stationery enabled (background on outgoing emails) so when i sent myself emails from here I see the background but no attachment.
I took off stationery and resent attachment and now i see it on HTC HD2!!
Thanks!
I think it's a certificate problem. I couldn't download attachments when synchronizing my HD2 with Exchange 2007 too. You should get root certificate from your adminstrator or, if you can access your server, start mmc, add new snap in (choose Certificates), find your company exchange certificate, export it and send it to your phone. When you tap on the certificate file on HD2 it will be installed as root certificate. Now you should be able to download attachments properly.

Did you read post#3? In an Exchange activesync push mail connection, HTML mail is only available to Exchange 2007 and later (although you can have HTML mail if you use a POP3 connection to your Exchange 2003 server).
hi alex,
the problem is fixed. The problem is version of exchange server 2003.
