Inbox does not download images by default in HTML emails.
You always have to click a link to download images.
Is there a way to download images by default?

i have been wondering this too, it drives me crazy
Can anybody help?
come on. some clever person must know the reg tweak for this?
any luck with this?
if i am not mistaken HTML E-Mails is only supported
1. if you have "Push" set up through an exchange server
2. if your exchange server is running Server 2007
hope this helps
good luck
Nope. HTML email is supported with normal pop email. No exchange server required.
that is correct on your desktop, however on your mobile phone i am pretty sure you need WM6.0 & Server 2007 to make HTML e-mial work. theoretically it can work through a POP account but your hosting company needs to run server 2007 & you need to be running WM6.0
good luck

i receive html email on my mobile phone, but the internet pictures do not automatically download...i have to manually do that...
that is the point of this post, the original poster is asking how to view HTML e-mails within the e-mail pane NOT to have to click a link to see them. to do this you need WM 6.0 & Server 2007
i will see if i can get access to an 07 exchance server and see if that works...
you need WM 6.0 also
Guys I am the original poster.
I do not use exchange - just a regular pop account.
When I download email, it downloads in HTML format: eg the email is in pretty colours and full of links etc and some images. However, sometimes a link appears that says "Click here to download images". After you click the link the images appear.
All I want to do is to enable all image downloads by default.
I am assuming it is a simple on/off toggle in the registry.
It is not a simple toggle and it cannot be implemented in WM5. In WM6, however, you can do this.

I am using WM6
HTML email is not part of WM5!
great we are all agreed now it is only WM 6.0, however i still contend your e-mail host/server needs to be running Server 2007. someone correct me if i am wrong?
thanks

No, Exchange is 100% not needed.
I don't use it and my received emails are HTML not plain text. I just need to click the link to download some images.
Not downloading the attachment is the default setting to save your bandwidth.
If you are using Exchange server, then you can change the active sync settings on your phone to download the full message instead of just the first 2kb.
If you are not using Exchange then I think you cannot change that but I don't know for sure since I am only using Exchange 2007.
UM
Just set the phone to download all messages and not just the first few kb. Problem is still there. There is a link that says "Internet Pictures Blocked". If you click it they download.

Unless I am misinterpreting, the original post was asking how to download the pictures automatically.
IMAP from ANY provider (yahoo is GREAT for this, by the way) will allow picture viewing in your wm6 device. But WM6 does NOT display images by default. In addition, there is no way to chose a selection and download pictures embedded in email automatically.
However,
There MUST be a registry setting that will allow just that: download pictures automatically in html wm6 email.
Can someone find it?
I found this amazing application
The following text is taken from it's web site.
http://www.melsam.com/outsync/default.aspx
OutSync is a free Windows application that syncs photos of your Facebook friends with matching contacts in Microsoft Outlook. It allows you to select which contacts are updated. So you can update all contacts at once or just a few at a time.
The main benefit of OutSync is for Windows Mobile users. Updated contacts are automatically synced with Windows Mobile devices by Exchange server or ActiveSync. Thus new and fun photos appear during calls and other places where contacts are used.
OutSync is compatible with Windows XP, Vista and Server 2003. It requires Outlook 2003 or 2007.
Sorry for reviving this post, guys. But Skydrive is being a damn cow at the moment, i can't login nor do a thing on it since three days. Can please someone post a mirror link to that app here, or online at a fileshare site?
[deleted post]
Please.
I am merely asking for a mirror of the file. Why? because I can't download from Skydrive (and the file, outsync.msi is only on skydrive) for a reason unknown. I'm very sorry if I wasn't clear enough.
So if anyone with the file in their computer could please upload that file anywhere else than skydrive, please help me out.
Your message wasn't clear enough.
I attached the file for you
Thanks a lot!
It's good to have people like you around here.
It doesn't work for me.
It closes everytime I try to open it and starts the windows error report.
Any idea?

Hi.
Does anyone know or use FTP client program on his/her Vox what is working perfecty?

Resco Explorer is the answer. Try Resco 2007. It has got an FTP client. I use the same on my Vox. I do connect to my webserver and do upload/download successfully.

Try Total Commander. It has got a Registry editor and text editor aswell as FTP and file explorer. It's free too.

Resco can only download from ftp server. I need upload too.
Total commander doesn't connect to my server. Some port problems:O Everything on ftp server is just like casual (port 21 etc, very simple).
Does anyone use some other application to upload files to ftp servers?

Using Resco, you can definitely upload too. There is no upload command. You need to use Edit -> Copy and Paste Command. In detail:
1. Select the file which you want to upload.
2. Select Action Menu. Then chose Edit -> Copy.
3. Now go to Menu -> Favorites -> My FTP Locations.
4. Connect to the Server, which you may have already configured.
5. Go to the folder in server, where you want to upload the file.
6. Then select Action -> Edit -> Paste.
The file gets uploaded. That's it. It works for me.
did not know resco could do that...
thanks.

Welcome mate. In fact, I found out this capability of Resco, in desperation. Once, I had left office for the day, after sending a confirmation email to client, thinking that the shipment (software) to the client is completely done and uploaded to the server. After half an hour, while sitting in train I realized that I forgot to upload some of the required files, without which client wud have hardly been able to do anything with the shipment. Luckily, I had taken the backup of the project in my Vox. Opened Resco and tried to find out a way somehow. Finally, just tried the above mentioned practise and I was thru. That day realized, if you are desperate, there will always be a way to success.
Thank You.
PS. I just figured out it myself and came here to tell my story about resco and uploading but like I see I am too late
so I've been trying to figure out this whole "cloud" concept.
(1) Using Windows Live Mesh 2011, I'm able to keep folders on my pc synced in the cloud on my skydrive. However, am I able to access these documents from my handset?
(2) Do I have to manually upload documents onto my skydrive or is there some option in microsoft office/word to upload them?
(3) I guess it's impossible to upload document files from your handset to your skydrive
so what I don't get is, why did they decide to go into this whole "cloud" concept, only to have the "cloud" not work the way it should?
SkyDrive
I've been able to access SkyDrive from my WINDOWS 7 PHONE (HTC HD 7) I can view the files in SkyDrive, open up a document and read it/view etc. But I can't download them onto my handset, so i can edit them and such in MS Office on my phone. According to MS Office on the windows 7 phones, you gota use something called sharepoint.
Hope this helps.
:/
they don't have it properly intergrated into the office hub at present but rumour has it that it will come as part of the update. what you can do however is in IE visit skydrive.com, and from there view your skydrive, open files, edit them, save them, and they auto update on their own. i am not sure if it will allow for adding though.
from reading around here, onenote can sync to skydrive though, so i'm pretty sure that with the right setup at present, you can get that going at least.
Hmmm, I can't seem to Edit them. I'm on skydrive now,
just googled skydrive, got windows skydrive up, logged in and viewed all my docs on there. I can click them and open them, view and read, but i can't edit them :S
Unless I'm missing something haha, don't get my wrong i like the fact i can open them from skydrive and read them. But i want them on my phone, in MS Office so i can edit etc
i don't think you can edit the files on skydrive directly
you can save them to your phone (bring up the menu in your file and select save as) and then edit them
and then you can upload to skydrive using the same name...
unfortunately there isn't an easier way to do it.
in answer to the questions the OP asked
1. yes
2. you can set up a network drive and use it as you would a normal drive..copy/paste/save etc
3. yes you can.
i actually like the whole cloud thing..
the only thing is that i am on a 500MB a month tariff (orange) so i worry about going over that..
but the cloud system means that everything is in sync and you don't have to fiddle around with USB sticks etc for small files.
i have all my contacts synced onto Google and windows Live and same with my calendar.
I personally prefer Google because its cloud products have more features and is a lot lot faster...i find windows live very slow..
Ya, i just added my Skydrive documents folder to a mapped drive, so now i can just drag and drop files... nice
Thought i would give it a go dropping a word doc in the Onenote folder to see if it would sync to the phone... but no lol... worth a go though.
At least now i have a nice easy way rather than going to the website and using an upload box. be it ok... this way is much nicer.
thanks for all the replies
what I need to know now is, is there anyway to access folders OTHER than the one marked documents on skydrive via my wp7 handset? When I sync my pc with skydrive there's a dedicated space called "Sync Folder"
I can't seem to access it with my handset
going to have to wait till they release office 365... sharepoint doesnt even work with our phones right now unless you happen to have a dedicated quad core server running sharepoint on that or something. I fiddled with it all for DAYS trying to get it so I could access work documents on my phone from sharepoint but NOPE! Pretty radiculous. Office 365 isnt even going to be available probably for another year! *sigh*
Originally SkyDrive and LiveMesh were products that had nothing whatsoever in common (except for being Cloud services). Lately Microsoft decided to merge them a little - so now you got a 25 GB SkyDrive AND a 5 GB Sync-SkyDrive. Those two can't talk to each other and if you got a Word Doc on the Sync-Drive you can't open it in office Web. If it's on the REAL Skydrive you can access it.
Unluckily only the pictures hub and OneNote currently integrate with the real SkyDrive and there is no integration with the Sync-Drive.
My guess is that doc/xls/ppt, etc. access from the office hub to SkyDrive is coming with an update.
When Microsoft is gonna clean up the mess of the two different SkyDrives is an entirely different matter - would like to see them merged (even if I afterwards have only 25 GB instead of 25 + 5).
Would you mind sharing your method

Hi mwako
Would you mind sharing your method for mapping a Skydrive folder?
Many thanks

Actually I'm trying to figure out how Skydrive is supposed to work, but I don't understand the idea...
Its limitations ruin the whole concept:
- Impossible to upload folders to Skydrive. This is insane.
- Each transfer is limited to 50MB.
Therefore I find Skydrive useless for business purposes, especially compared to other systems such as Dropbox.
In my daily job I need to transfer folders of office files. And they need to stay organized as such.
If I cannot upload folders to Skydrive, or if I can only upload files without any organization. what's the use?
Hi all!
I would discuss with you what can be the best way to use a tablet for a typical business day.
Today I'm used to use my netbook during travelling for:
- read/answer email messages (I receive at least 120 mails/day)
- look at some excel files (typically only read, sometimes also write)
- look at some pdf
- show some PPT presentation through my screen or the VGA output
I'd like to start to use a tablet (currently I have a Samsung tab 7'', in the next future the 10'').
But... how to get access to my outlook mails? Not only what I receive day by day but also to look at what I received 1 months ago or previous.
Also how to have access to my PDF db? or PPT db? Should I use some sync program to sync storage tablet space and PC's storage?
What do you think about?
- Outlook: I can't use IMAP because I organized my mails in many,many,many folders and IMAP is really slow in syncing those...
- File Folders: do you know any nice app which can work nice on wifi (at least).
Maybe I could start to think to dropbox...
Any comment?
No one answered me... and this is sympthomatic of one of:
- my question is not so interesting (maybe)
- there is currently no answer
But I think many of us have my same question because want to buy a new technology gadget but can't find the right way to use it.
I am still a newbie on Android, but will provide some inputs which I am currently using on my XT3 ( not a tablet though)

- Outlook: My company have Microsoft ActiveSync configured so I use native Email Client of Froyo. I have my mails synced only for 3 days. With this you can choose which folders needs to be sync'ed. Looking at the volume you are trying to use I doubt if the default mail client can handle that load. You can give a try on alternates like RoadSync or TouchDown etc.
- File Folder: I use ES File Explorer. Its a free app and works like a charm on both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Have tested only with Windows machines until now.
Hope this helps here.

Using a 10.1" Viewsonic Viewpad 10s with internal 3G.
I have no answer for your email problem. I use GMail as my company is using GoogleApps. Access to older emails is a pain from the tablet, and like you I have organized my emails in folders and subfolders (called labels in Gmail). I can access them while out of office, but its not really fast.
For the files, I use "Documents to Go" as it gives me access to my Google Docs account. I can get Word, Excel, Powerpoint and PDF files from my account, read them, change them. It can sync files with your PC as well.
I have the GTab and I use Logmein to view my outlook emails. Granted, I have a desktop PC in my office that remains 'on' at all times so that I can always remote-in to it.
Here's a short list of my business apps installed on my tab:
Citrix Receiver
LogMeIn
WebEx
Evernote
Dropbox
Thinkfree
...plus others.
K-9 mail
Never live in the past but always learn from it.
Why not set up an exchange Android's email client supports outlook exchange.
"ColorNote" "DropBox" help a lot at my work.
I have a galaxy tab, but i use the ipad for on the road business things, its really handy for showing the pdfs i make to explain things to clients and such, there's also alot of excellent business related apps that just aren't on android yet.
A excellent one is like a "minutes" app, and you record everything discussed in the meeting that you can look up on for future reference, it has like a contact lists in it for all the different clients.
As soon as Android matures ill switch to a 10inch tablet
K9 mail has outlook/exchange support (although I've not tested it).
I use IMAP with K9 mail. The beauty of it is you can select which folder to sync. You may have many many folders, but maybe you don't need to sync all of them.
For all your other problems, I guess there is a solution:
There is MSOffice for android (read and write), PDFreader for android.
You should be able to browse through your work file through 3G/Wifi using a combo of cifs manager and ES File explorer. Assuming your work IT let you access to there network from your personal mobile device (they could decide it's forbidden for security reasons... my work would not let me do that).
Another option (not so convenient) for sharing files : Dropbox
Hope this helps

Thanks all for the answers!
I think mangus7175 focused the problem.. we need full PC access (through LogMeIn or something like) especially when looking for business mail access.
A PC is compatible with all kind of environment, I mean:
- do you have Exchange? taaaac.. use Outlook synced with it or another client
- do you have POP3/IMAP access? taaaac.. use Outlook synced with it or another client
- ...
I can't understand why this is not available with a tablet with a so big storage space... it'd not be a pst storage problem and with a dual core cpu not a performance one.
I mean that for business access we can't ask our companies to change the environment only because we need that. Tablet are still seen as gadgets.. some companies are going to give to account managers tablets to be more fashion while showing catalogues, documentation, etc.. but it's quite far to be a so common business device, yet.
So in the meantime we can use a lot of PC-like apps but when necessary we still need full access to our PC in the office. In this case the bad thing is that we need a lot of bandwidth and here in my country it's not so available and stable and RDP is not so comfortabel. However also in fast access without a mouse it's quite hard to use.
I'm sorry to say I'm trying a lot of scenarious but unfortunately I still prefer my netbook when travelling, with data manually synced through LAN/USB.

The main i use is called "Mobile business" by resco, but if you have an iDevice, just have a look in the business section, you'll be amazed.
I'd like to mention "Blue": https://market.android.com/details?id=com.cfcwireless.blue
Good for checking stocks on the go. Offers more possibilities than Google Finance...
Hello,
I use a Gtab for my business since 5 months. If you use Exchange in your business I advise you to use Touchdown. This application is for Mail (Exchange), Meetings, Tasks and Contact.
You can use a lot of settings for mails and meetings.
I use Dropbox, Catch and COL Reminder.
for iPad...
I saw there is an app to see and work on a saved .pst file...
Is possible there is no equivalent for Android?? I can't believe this... but I can't find anything surfing the web!!
