No 2 way hotmail syncing on Android, but available on WiMo, why?

Hi,
I've searched high and low for a anwser but I have not been able to find one. Why did I have perfect 2 way syncing of my hotmail account on my WiMo Touch Diamond but not on my Legend. I know hotmail is pop only but if for whatever reason it works on WM, it should also be possible to get it working on android right? Being able to read mail is one of the reasons I buy phones like this but deleted messages by pc, read/unread messages not properly syncing between the web interface and the android client is really annoing.
As there seems to be no solution for this, and it doesnt seem there is any hope for a ''fix'' all I want to know is how and why it can work on wm but not on android?

I'm on the same page as you. I have a motorola cliq xt and my hotmail only syncs new messages, not my deleted ones. Also, theres no support for syncing all your folders or support for outgoing mail servers that require authentication. Is there anyword if this issue is addressed in android 2.2?

the reason is that is how POP works. POP mail isnt like IMAP. POP is you just pull the new data and whatever device actually stores the email. POP protocol is more of a temporary storage. When new mail comes in, it sits in the POP inbox untill a client picks it up and then it is deleted from the POP server. Hotmail POP acts a little differently in that when the POP email is reteived, it does not delete the email from hotmail inbox. But it is deleted from the POP server. Why could you do it with your WinMo, because microsoft allowed activesync access for there devices. Kinda like how Googles Android is the only mobile OS that has full 2way push support for gmail.

icloud email on android

hi
i've tried various android email apps on my samsung galaxy 3 for my icloud email. Except for inomail, none of the other apps show the email folders on the icloud server - wondering why? has anyone configured their android phone to show up all the folders on the server to show up ?
pls help..its driving me nuts!!

Most things apple don't work well with android. Apple doesn't want other OS to use their stuff so they most likely gave only min access

Any answers to this? Inomail shows all the folders whereas other email apps don't. Both are configured via imap for the icloud mail

Non-Gmail Synch query

Hi
I have configured on my device my personal G Mail and also through the default android mail app my work emails. Are any of my work emails being copied or backed up to any kind of server as part of the whole Google thing,
All I have to do on a freshly built laptop with Windows 7 is log into my G Mail account and logging into facebook the username field is already populated. nice!!
Is there any way of me ensuring that non of my work emails are being copied anywhere or is it simply ruled out as an Android feature!!
Thanks for your help

[Q] Shared Calendar on Mobile Phone with Exchange

Hi,
I have been googling for days trying to find a solution, but I haven’t really found exactly what I need. What I’m looking for is app or program that can share an outlook (exchange) calendar to multiple Smartphone’s, android, ios, and blackberry. There is apps that can do this, but it only shares your personal calendars, not a mailbox created on exchange and share its calendar. Also I would want to be able to remove access to the smartphones if they are not longer working at my company.
This is the hard part, having the control when people bring in their own device, to be able to give them access to the shared calendar and revoke when needed. Without actually physically having their phone.
The only example is, create a Google account, then create a shared Google calendar, have all users make their own Google account, and share it to them, when they leave, just remove access. But because I’m in a Microsoft environment with Exchange, I want to have all the control in house with the ability to have it on smartphones(active sync cannot do shared calenders). Any help or suggestions from the community would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dachari

Does anyone know of a solution?

[Q] Managing email

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.
