I am trying to set up my college email on my phone(Samsung epic 4g) and the email is connected to Microsoft exchange. I have the information correct but it says "set up could not finish:unable to connect server" any ideas on what is wrong or I did wrong
The fields look like this:
(I am going to use anonymous info because I do not want to give out my email)
Domain:username
\username
Password
password
Exchange server
school.edu
these fields are correct
The email is powered by Microsoft Office Outlook
I figured it out by using this link www.library.uams.edu/mobile/android-email-setup.pdf and then just changing the info to my needs

I am trying to set up my college student email account, which is hosted by google Gmail, on my dash running WM6.
The email address is "myname"@students.kennesw.edu
I tried the same pop settings as my gmail account, incoming server pop.gmail.com : outgoing server smtp.gmail.com. I also tried the server settings as pop.students.kennesaw.edu and smtp.students.kennesaw.edu.
When i try to connect to the email account from the phone i get an error to check the account name and the password. They are both correct but it will not connect. It gives me an error that it can not connect.
Any help with how to set it up is appreciated. I have my personal Gmail set up on the same phone and it works fine and i have my school address forwarding to that email but i can not reply from that address.
Thanks
I'm not sure about this but it might be students.kennesaw.edu for both POP and SMTP
have u tried using ur email addy as username, and smtp should be that or your mobile carrier

Hello,
Thank you for your report.
Configuring POP access for your Google Apps email account is very similar
to configuring it in Gmail. However, any time you're asked for your
username during the configuration process, you'll need to enter your full
email address, including your domain ([email protected]_domain.com). All other
settings are the same.
However, please note that we haven't been able to test POP access with
your mail client yet, but we're working to make our service compatible
with as many mail clients as possible. We look forward to announcing
additional compatibilities in the future.
Sincerely,
The Google Team
yup, me too
I'm having the same problem, also with students.kennesaw.edu. Love to see more info

I apologize right off the bat for this thread if this is a repeat, and I surely hope it isn't as I searched the forums looking for a fix, but I found nothing.
I'm having issues setting up my bosses Outlook email account on her new captivate. I enter in the email address, the password, the server/domain name, all the info that I have, and it says that connecting to the email server has failed. I'm unsure if this is a limitation of 2.1 or if this is a user error.
If anyone has had success setting up Outlook email with the captivate please help!
Do you guys use Outlook webaccess?
in my case I clicked on the manual setting and had to do the following:
domain\user name
password
server address (ex: mail.theplaceiwork.com)
and selected SSL
this routed it through the outlook web servers instead of the internal exchange servers which are behind the firewall...
make sense?

Are the email admin? Does your company use Exchange? Do you support mobile devices connecting to Exchange?
Hi, I'm a noob. I have a work email that I think uses exchange (it's a big corporation and we have outlook/entourage in the offices). I can also access my email from anywhere via https://webmail.*****.com/
I can't figure out how to sync my mail app with that email. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Try the "Exchange by TouchDown", I'm sure will help
Are you using the default Froyo Email app? or something else?
your username/password combo should be your normal login credentials to login to the webmail service. If your company requires you to append the domain to the user name then it will look like this: domain\username
The server address will be the url of the webmail service for OWA. You may need to also allow all SSL connections for this to work properly.
Hope that helps.
there also is a chance that your company has not provisioned you for Exchange ActiveSync. If none of the above work, give your IT department a call and verify that youre mailbox is enabled for EAS
in the default htc app choose for exchange and put these exactly like underneath
e-mail adres [email protected]
server adres webmail.*****.com
password the password you use to log in to webmail
yes, your server requires an encrypted ssl connection
No domain name is required!!!
Hm. I tried everything above and still cant get it to work. Will talk to IT, thanks guys!
Hi Guys,
can anyone guide me to configure outlook for my business email. I know the Exchange server address, username password and all details. But whenever i try to configure, its not happening.
i have my office mail configured in my office laptop. That laptop is in the particular domain. So its working fine. Its that has to do something ?
i read some threads saying we need to install a certificate in the mobile in order to access secure business email. Can anyone list me which certificate to install and how to get that.
Thanks for your time.

I think Business Outlook installs the certificate on it's own with the password lock etc and enforces the security policies.
My business outlook is set with following details:
Username - the one I use to log in
Password - the one I use for my username
Email ID - the business email address
Domain - your business domain that is generally a prefix to your username i.e. domain/username
Server address: if domain/username can't automatically find it. (mostly it does!)
That's it! It took Outlook literally 2 seconds on 3g network to find the server and start pulling my calendar, emails and contacts.
I am trying to set up the best handling of email-on PC and remotely on Android devices.
I am a long time user of Comcast for my email address, so I am hesitant about giving that address up. I primarily access my email from a PC and like to download and back it up (using Carbonite). I also like to set up folders to store and sort my email.
However, I would also like to be able to access my email from the Android devices, deleting, replying, sorting as I do on my PC and have the work done on one device sync with the other 2.
I recently purchased the Samsung Galaxy S3 and just got the Galaxy Note 10.1 2014.
So, my question is: What is the best means of doing this, from the standpoint of best PC email client and best Android app? Is this possible with Comcast or would I be better off just transferring over to using my Gmail account?
Am I being to overly simple by suggesting that IMAP is exactly what you are looking for?
Maybe I'm missing something too, but Gmail (and most other web based e-mail services) allow you to retrieve e-mail from your preferred e-mail account and also let you use that account as your "sent from" e-mail address. As noted in the previous response, you should be able to accomplish this via IMAP. Just sign up for a web based e-mail service and follow the instructions for retrieving e-mail from other servers,

This is true. I have 3 different accounts mapped through Gmail. I can respond to each account as if it were coming from its native email.
