I am having difficulty setting up K9 email for my corporate email account. It is a Microsoft Exchange (and I believe 2003).
I keep getting an error:
Cannot connect to server. (Error with code 404 during request processing: HTTP/1.1 404 Resource Not Found)
I can use Touchdown and normal Android Email to sync just fine. I use K9 for my Pop email account, and I like it better (not to mention Touchdown requires you to use their calendar app and widget).
I can even log onto my Exchange account through the web, by using https://mail.serverXXX.com and my login ID and password.
Here is my basic setup:
USERNAME: mellojoe1234
password: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
WebDAV (Exchange) server: mail.serverXXX.com
Security type: SSL (if available)
Port: 443 (prefilled)
WebDAV (Exchange) path, authentication path, Mailbox path all left blank.
When I log into the webmail account I use:
https://mail.serverXXX.com, which gives me a pop up login box.
USERNAME: mellojoe1234
password: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The resulting website is https://mail.serverXXX.com/exchange
What am I doing wrong? Am I missing some info that I would need to get from the IT department?
any K9 experts lurking?
There are a few different instructions here:
http://code.google.com/p/k9mail/wiki/K9MailAndExchange
But even with this I still can't get it working and I've tried lots of different combinations.
The stock app links to Exchange to easily its a shame k9 doesn't as its a much better email app.

Hi, how do i get hotmail on wm6 without having to go through hotmail.com on explorer. Don't like using MSN messenger either. Entourage for mac lets you use Hotmail like an IMAP/POP3. Can this be done on wm6? Windows live?
Cheers
if you have the pop3 smtp setting for a mail box
you can access it from any device which support those
settings it would be transparent for the device that it
was hotmail rather then a mail server at your isp
Er, looks like you can't get hotmail details. If you can if you subsribe to the premium hotmail service.
Found these but not sure?
Settings are:
incoming mail server: 195.137.042.007
outgoing smtp server: 195.137.042.007
port: 110
user name: your hotmail user name
password: your hotmail password
think gmail let one get access regardless
is it possible to configure two different hotmail/windows live email accounts??? i can only set one account bcuz only one may sync with my messenger. i dont need for my other email account to be used with my messenger. i just want to be able to send/receive with my other email account.
Easy...
for the second account, enter in email address like
[email protected] (not hotmail.com)
This will prompt you to enter pop3 and smtp servers. For hotmail, use the following
pop3.live.com
smtp.live.com
username: [email protected]
voila...
How do I set up the email for Windows Live hotmail? I have a college email with it, and I can't figure out the pop3/smtp servers. Is it easier to use an app instead? Anyone tried one?
I tried pop3.live.com and smtp.live.com and they don't work.

Under accounts/sync, add a server you mean? Only options are corporate, facebook and google. I tried just adding under corporate anyway, and it can't connect to server.
If it's windows mail then it might be outlook. There's an option in your email where it shows you the settings you have to enter on your phone.

Use the email app not the gmail app, and just sign in
or you can use k-9 email app
Try this. i use this for my windows live email that my school has provided.
ie. choose only one from pop and imap. smtp you need that for outgoing emails.
your username could be your whole email address.
POP setting
Server name: pod51000.outlook.com
Port: 995
Encryption method: SSL
IMAP setting
Server name: pod51000.outlook.com
Port: 993
Encryption method: SSL
SMTP setting
Server name: pod51000.outlook.com
Port: 587
Encryption method: TLS
Fixed it, set it up as an exchange account and m.hotmail.com. I just had to change my username to my entire email address. It's working now. Thanks. Now if I could just figure out why my gps my location stopped working. That's another thread.
I am new here, and im sorry if i should not post this here, if this is a dumb question or whatnot, but i came here for help and hopefully this is what i will receive.
Now, im currently a student @ York University in Canada. They have an email service, which can be installed with IMAP. I was on the last step when it gave me an error code.
"Can't safely connect to server.
(javax.net.ssl.SSLProtocolException: SSL handshake aborted: ssl=0x1a53070: Failure in SSL library, usually a protocol error: 140770FC:SSL routines: SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO: unknown protocol (external/openssl/ssl/s23_clnt.c.6830x40268cc3:0x00000000))
I am using a rooted HTC Sensation 4G with Virtuous Quattro A3
The university IMAP:

Thanks... but the problem is still there. It's entered correctly, otherwise it would tell me "Could not connect to server" because the info was wrong...
So still not solved
Anyone with an answer ?
Hoping someone can help with this..
I'm using:
Server: webmail.company.com
Login: domain\user (not same as email)
Email: [email protected]
SSL (checked)
Accept all SSL (checked)
This has always worked in the past but recently stopped. When setting this up now I get an error: "You typed an incorrect server address or the server requires a protocol version that Email doesn't support".
Using all these settings in K9 mail I get a similar error. With K9 mail however I have the option to add a "Mailbox Alias". When I add [email protected] into the Mailbox Alias field it works.
Ideally I'd like to continue using the default Email app and Calendar but since there doesn't appear to be anyplace to add a Mailbox Alias in the default client I cannot. I am using that mailbox alias as the email address I enter when setting up the Email client.
It's not a company issued phone so there isn't much I can do as far as having changes made on the server. I believe they must have done an update or changed some setting, as there was an email that the OWA server was being restarted which preceded these problems.
I tried setting this up on an iPhone this evening. It didn't give the same error but rather just wouldn't connect to the same server. This previously worked as well as I had tried an iPhone briefly a few months ago.
It seems that no one else at work that collects email with their stock Android Email.apk is having any issues. I would assume at this point it is some kind of account problem, but I am using the same info as listed above in my work laptops Outlook client for collecting mail via https when not connected to VPN. I'm also using those settings on a Macbook in Entourage to connect to exchange, though I believe that uses webdav. Both of those clients continue to work, and as mentioned above, k9 works when adding my email address to the Mailbox Alias. I was also able to get TouchDown working though I'm not that interested in buying it.
If anyone has anything I'd love to hear it.
thanks!
This appears to be the issue that I'm having.

It seems to be an account/permissions related problem though I don't really understand why adding a mailbox alias with K9 resolves the problem, though the above OP mentions his worked with Touchdown when it wasn't working with default email.apk.
