Hi!
after OTA update, connection to my exchange server (2007) does not work at all.
alternative email clients (very strange, but fact) does not work at all, also.

Why has it taken so long for them to offer an exchange server protocol for hotmail for windows mobile??!! Well finally I think it is happening with the new role out of Live Wave 4.
I Have searched the forums for this new development and have not seen anything here.
The closest I have got to getting direct push mail for hotmail is currently is by two ways.
Either through the Windows Live client and selecting as items arrive under options (which can be really slow - hit and miss)
or forwarding your hotmail to another provider that offers this service. I use to have mail2web until it became a pay only service. I then switched to Googlemail (gmail) which does offer this for free. (although this can have its issues - email forwarding is slow etc)
(Nothing new there!)
The good news is that with the role out of the new Windows Hotmail (live wave 4) there should be.
There are a number of links that confirm it and other if you google it:

Has anyone been lucky enough to test this or have any further details on setup be leaked?
I think it would be interesting to see what people think of this as it is implemented. It due anytime.....
They shut it down again!!!
This is sad as I need it for Android, unlike Windows Mobile's client, Windows Live has push capabilities.
it's working again as of yesterday.
What setting are you using?
It's being rolled out gradually. Be patient. (or buy a windows mobile phone) It has worked on 6.5 for some time.
The settings I have used for push mail via active sync are:
Email: [email protected] or [email protected]
Server: m.hotmail.com
SSL: Enabled
Username: @live.com or hotmail.com
Password: password
have configured hd2 to these to test if this works on activesync and via android. No Success...
Hello all,
I bought my Transformer last week. I've already installed 3.1 on my tablet. I tried to add my exchange account to the stock e-mail client, using a manual setup (in both versions). For some reason however I don't seem to be able to connect to our Exchange server. The error message that I'm getting is: The exchange ActiveSync server requires security features your phone does not support.
I know this was a problem with older versions of Android. But starting with 2.2 these issues should have been solved. Also, some colleagues of mine own 2.2 and 2.3 devices. And they can connect to our Exchange Server without any problems. Unfortunately I can't with my brandnew Transformer .
I've installed Touchdown for Tablets. This app has no problems whatsoever. But I'd much rather use the stock e-mail client, because it lets me read my mail from all my e-mail accounts in one tool.
The security policies Touchdown lists as being requested from our Exchange server are the following:
allow simple password: No
Password/PIN required
Failed Attempts 8
Min Length 4
Timeout 600 sec.
Password recovery
Oh - and an odd thing is that in Touchdown I have to put in my pincode. Could they're be a problem with exchange not recognizing the "pincode" setting in Honeycomb?
Perhaps someone out there can help me out with this problem, because it's freaking me out.
Regards, Perenor.
I haven't had a problem with my Transformer connecting and syncing with my Exchange server...actually have been surprised how quick it does connect...
..how far into the setup/connection process do you get before it gives you the error?
I get the error when I press "Next" on the page where you enter the "user/domain", "password" en "mail server" entries. It then tries to get the settings for incoming mail, which takes a couple of seconds. After that I get the aforementioned message.
I have sent in a bug report at code.google.com. Its Defect Id is 17987. Perhaps others out there with a honeycomb tablet who are having this problem as well, could leave a message there: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=17987.
It s been like it since Android 1.0...
Android does not support Exchange security. PERIOD.
It is sad. The only ROM supporting it are SENSE ROM... as far as i know...
But for HC, so far nothing...
Updating to 3.2 resolves this issue
Update didn't help
Updated to 3.2.1 (WW) but I still get the same message that my device does not support the security features required.
Running stock and un-rooted TF101 (no G) B70 series.
Any ideas/pointers?
And no, I don't want to install touchdown regardless of how good it is.
(Funnily enough, my dirt cheap HTC chacha has replaced my blackberry and works flawlessly with our Exchange server).
For the record, we're on Exchange 2010 but not sure which exact requirements activesync comes with (happy to report them if someone points me to how to gather them).
Our tabs built-in email app is perfect for me. Only problem i have is that I cant get my corporate mail to work. Gmail and Ymail works fine. Our office uses MS Exchange but we can only access through OWA (even my PC Outlook is configured to go through OWA).
I've been using Seven Mail for quite some time now but recently its not updating my emails well.
Any help would be appreciated.
Btw. Tried Touchdown, K9, Kaiten, Moxier, Maildroid but did not like them.

I use the native email apk for corporate exchange email and it works fine. I prefer it over touchdown.
In my case, I entered the email address and password for my account, selected exchange, then I had to change the user name to my corporate domain\userid. I also changed the server name to owa.company.com. I had to select accept all SSL certificates.
Our exchange service requires some security controls on the device so you have to set a screen lock pin or password.
Same experience for me as for grogzero.
Technically speaking, as long as you can access OWA and your company is not using Exchange 2010, the email client will work. Specifically, the client uses ActiveSync (technology used by Microsoft) and this protocol works over OWA. This emans that as long as OWA works, your tab default client should work as well.
In Exchange 2010, mobile access must be enabled on top of OWA to allow ActiveSync to work. Otherwise, you should email your support and ask them about it.
Can you give us more specifics on the specific situation you have to deal with?

Same issue
I am having the same issue.
My company uses exchange 2007 with SSL and has some security features requirements also. (pin requirement for example) The settings I have set up fine on my iPad but I really want to use the SGT instead of the iPad.
I am currently using TD and it has worked but I love the split screen on the native email app.
Any suggestions?
the solution to that issue is upgrade to 2.3.3, actually this works for me.
call your internet provider and ask for pop3 port. For ex mine is 26 instead of default 25

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.
Hello,
I recently got a Lumia 800 - had i iPhone 3GS before.
And there you can sync your calender with ActiveSync.
But for some reason it doesnt work on Windows Phone 7.5
Any of you got it working or have some idea how to get it working?
Everytime i try - it just keeps asking for user and password, like it doesnt send it correctly to the server. Even got my username changed to [email protected] cuz I had an idea that it used <username>@<domain> you type in the account info. But didnt work either.
What server are you trying to connect to? I've used ActiveSync with several versions of Exchange, plus Google's implementation, and they've all worked just fine (including calendar sync). The most trouble I had was my office's Exchange server, which required that I provide a certificate on the phone... but the error message told me that, so it wasn't hard.
Note that username, domain, and server are all different fields and my have nothing to do with each other at all. Use the same settings you used on your iPhone and it should work, though.

Its a FirstClass mail server - that has a ActiveSync feature. I dont know much about the server part. Mostly schools and similar that use it as mailserver
There is no SSL support - so a certificate error it can't be?
I've been using ActiveSync for years with Google on iOS/Android. But I guess its the service that provides ActiveSync on our server that is the problem.
