Outlook webmail app?

The company I work for doesn't support android phones for our corporate/enterprise email server, but I can access my email account on my phone through the outlook webmail site. Are there any apps that can use outlook webmail site to pull emails from? Anyone have any other suggestions for me?
Thanks!

Exchange for Android v2.x?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

What I did was create a work Gmail and then added it on my phone and have my work Email (exchange) forward all my messages to my Gmail work one, it worked for a while and then they changed security policies or something. I tried forever for a work around for it but nothing came about until I actually talked to the boss about it and he asked the IT guys if anything could be done about it, and sure enough I can now connect and use my work email
Have you asked your manager/boss about it? I wasted like 2 hours trying to get find another way to do it and but a 5 minute conversation with the boss sorted it out lol.

Yeah, I spoke with IT a few times and all we came up with was either getting an apple device or Blackberry to use on our exchange server, or use outlook webmail. Strangely, they support the droid incredible but won't let any other android device on the server. I can check everything just fine on webmail, but it would be cool if I could get notifications, or at least have a mobile friendly interface I don't have to keep zooming in and out on.
I tried that exchange for 2.x and just can't get it to connect. I have the correct server info from my blackberry and from what I use everyday on my work pc. Verified by logging in on the webmail site.
Thanks for the help so far.

For Touchdown (Exchange for 2.x) try inputting your settings as if you were setting up an iphone to connect to the exchange server. The address should be sync.domainhere.com or something like that. It may work then.

I posted this in another thread.....try Seven, it's been working great for me.
I can't post links so.... (www).seven.com

I used the default froyo email program, just set the owa address as exchange server (without h**ps://), ssl encription, my login (without domain/) and password and It has worked well .

Yeah, none of that's working for me. I've spent the day trying to configure 5-6 different apps to use the webmail exchange server with no luck. Guess I'm stuck with using the website until the IT department starts supporting other android devices on the server.
Thanks again.

[Q] Advanced Gmail client?

Im looking for an advanced version of the gmail client. Paid or free, it doesnt matter.
I need the basic functionality currently on offer (just for gmail addresses really), but with more options. Landscape view like in touchwiz would be nice, as well as better attachment options, etc..
Pretty vague but you know what i mean

Why not just use the stock Samsung email client?
Regards,
Dave

that k-9 mail is meant to be good

maildroid looks promising to , one free and one expensive version..

Try Moxier... thumbs up from me. Only cost 20 bucks

Nonsense! I get push email from my GApps account using the stock client.
Hint: Use Exchange ActiveSync, which Gmail supports.

hi,
in stock email app, i will to add a account for my *****@gmail.com
later, in account options, is possible to specify the "scan new messages timeout" that
implies the email protocol is pop. imap don't poll for new messages.

First of all you are wrong in that IMAP doesn't poll - it can use poll at intervals if you wish. IMAP IDLE is a pseudo push, and that is what you are thinking of, but it is still a form of polling in essence.
However, all of this is immaterial!
In the stock email client, when you set up a new account you enter your email address and password. At this stage, you could click next and it would set up your Gmail account as IMAP. However, if you click Manual Setup, you get 3 options:
POP
IMAP
Exchange
Select Exchange account and then enter the follow:
Domain\Username : [email protected] (or [email protected] if you are using GApps for Domains)
Exchange Server : m.google.com (for both regular GMail and GApps for Domains email)
Press Next, and then you get the option to change the "Email Check Frequency", which by default should be "Automatic (Push)".
Job done! True push on stock email client.

Dave

Wow, just wow. I didn't know about that exchange stuff. That's insane! Thanks!

hi,
i have configured my gmail account in order to send emails using another identities.
in gmail is possible to select the identity of the sender, but not in stock email app.
it's correct or i'm wrong

Thanks for the info, I just set this up on my tab and I can use the account to send mail but it seems like it's not receiving; also when I click the sync button it says unable to connect to server. very strange.

Thanks. It work perfectly in my tab.

AWSOME!
just tested this on my tab i like the mail app a little bit better then the gmail IMO

so it seems I'm the only one getting this connection error when I attempt to setup gmail exchange on the samsumg email app =(

Has anyone tried this with more than one exchange server? When I try to add an exchange server, the exchange button is grayed out. I'm guessing it's because I already have a different exchange e-mail setup?
Edit: Interesting - I deleted my other exchange account and I'm getting the same "Unable to connect" to server error message everyone else is getting. I even changed the domain to Google (using some old knowledge I used to do something similar to this to sync my contacts with Google on my old Windows phone devices: http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=138636).
Any ideas?

I had set up several gmail exchange accounts, and they all worked. However i think that app is memory hog, it's slow, with buggy notifications and in the end i switched back to the standard gmail one. Did you notice that there isn't really any alternative email client on the market?

Best email app?

Can someone recommend an improved email app to me?
I currently am using the default program on cm7. I want one that downloads the messages as well as headers (default takes time to load each.) Also one that lists more emails at once and let's you search them. I really just use pop3.
Thanks

I Personally use K-9 Mail. Can anyone tell me though, does IMAP accounts support PUSH notifications?
Because I set K-9 to only update every 1 hour on the server, but if I send a test email I get it on my phone INSTANTLY. So is this constant polling, or is that push?

Yes, K-9 supports IMAP push(IMAP_IDLE) although it might still be a good idea to have it poll periodically as a backup. Here is a list of K-9 features with push holding down the first bullet.
One annoyance, which is not a K-9 issue but rather a google issue, is with gmail's implementation of IMAP push as it fails to sync read/unread flags. An email you've read in K-9 won't show up as read on your computer(or vice versa) until a poll is done or an email is deleted from the server to update other devices. This works fine with my school IMAP account so it's no fault of K-9 but rather google not pushing read flags for gmail.

[Q] Email app?

What's a good e-mail app for multiple accounts?
I have 2 msn accounts - one personal and one for school
I really can't find anything in the app store. For some reason, K-9 isn't letting me create a 2nd e-mail account. Maybe I'm doing it wrong

I agree, I've tried them all, maildroid, enhanced email, improved email, seven and K-9 is the best. I've got 5 imap email accounts all set up to push. Never miss an email, even when traveling internationally.

Yeah but with K9 how do I set up msn? Because it won't recognize it?

Ya I'd have to say k-9 is good. I've never used maildroid. Is it good.?

no PUSH mail!!

Hello everyone
First of all, very very nice forum, a great place to learn and read.
I am having trouble with the stock gmail app.
itf not as push as should be!
does anyone have another app to sync gmail and get it push to the device?
Cheers !!

Stock Gmail should do the trick as it's the best there is for gmail sync. Mine pushes straight away everytime.
If you really must look for alternatives then try the Samsung email client as that pushes promptly or K9 mail for third party fix.

Are you sure that Samsung Email is able to push?
For me it does not push my mails, but I didn't try to fix it, I'm using my providers App.

the stock email app will push gmail as long as you set it up correctly through activesync...just google gmail activesync settings and put those into the email app

Absolutely I had set up my Hotmail (before official app) and it pushed every single email to me (although i had it set up via imap settings). It even showed all my folders that I had set up on my mail account.

I used both and neither pushed properly, they would sometimes and sometimes not.
You want a good mail app that will push? I can strongly suggest K-9 as one of the best out there.

and for using push gmail, I need to create an accout with which type of account??
POP3
IMAP
Exchange (WebDAV)
??
thanks for the help!

I'm using Gmail with K-9, when i first loaded it up, it configured it automatically without having to set anything specifically.
All I did from there was adjust my polling/fetching and push settings.
I've noticed even K-9 doesn't push instantly and sometimes not at all, but at least it's a better overall program I find then gmail and the stock samsung app.
I've read that it seems to be an Android thing, I suppose just another caveat you have to live with like not having a voicemail app.

Use Exchange and set up manually. Server for gmail is m.google.com.
The best e mail client is enhanced e mail available on the market.
