Email Questions and Problems with wizard

First, I have a question about the push feature of the new t-mobile release of wm5. I have read on forums about a G3 and G4 versions of the wizard. Does this affect the push email, because my icon in the comm manager is grayed out.
Second, does anyone here pop gmail? I have many problems when I try through edge or GPRS. I use the settings
pop.gmail.com:995
smtp.gmail.com:465
it downloads my sent and received emails in my inbox and everytime it reconnects to check for new mail it deletes the mail it downloaded earlier. Has anyone else had this problem or have any ideas? Thanks.

hey... ur icon is probably grayed out cos u dont have a push mail server configured... push mail needs a exchange 2003 server with sp2... mail2web is a free mail service that'll give u free access to push mail...
gmail settings are such that u lose any mails that u have downloaded earlier... i've forwarded all mail from my gmail account to my mail2web account and configured the mail2web account for push mail... this way i get all mails coming into my gmail account instantly n they stay on the phone as long as i want them to...
hope this helps...

It helps a great deal thank you. Normally I expect to be able to turn something on and off without having it configured yet. I will try fowarding my gmail too.

Outlook Email issue

I can not get my Outlook Email to sync or operate at all. I don't know how to attach my hotmail account to this. Can anyone help? I was unable to find any solutions in this forum.

I'm very new to pc phones & data access (have had my AT&T wireless data and 8525 less than 2 wks.) and I recall having to do a little poking around to attach my hotmail account. But, what I did to get things working initially was to go to http://mobile.msn.com, enter my username/email address and password, and then hit the 'Hotmail' link whilst signed in to see my hotmail email.

Thanks Jefson, but on the device under Messaging, you can view Text, MMS, and Outlook Email accounts. This is the method I want to view my emails because it provides a little more options in sending and receiving emails rather than going to the mobile MSN account through the IE browser on the phone. Thanks though

I should add more information on my phone. I have a Tytn phone and I just recently upgraded to the Dopod version of WM 6. It's great so far, but just the Outlook Email is giving me problems. I was able to sync this with ActiveSync and my hotmail account on WM 5..???

outlook - contacts sync
I have the same problem. Using active sync I can sync everything apart form my contacts - (Im guessing this is because contacts are sync'd through outlook which is also not working). I took my HERMES to the orange shop where I baught it and they said to download a newer version of active sync. Although I cannot find active-sync for download anywhere.

Do you sync to a company server or is it only to your local PC?

hot mail
if you install msn it will ask you if you want to associate your mail account also
click yes
hey presto
off you go

rwcozens - I sync to a local PC, my own laptop
blowfeld - Is MSN avaliable to download to non USA users? Where do I get it from?
thanks
scot

Here you go.

msn
its actualy the windows live that comes with the schaps 54b rom
initialising that will set up the contacts and email for hotmail
it works in uk

mobile messenger / mobile msn live ??
I have not found a place to download windows live or messenger that will allow me to transfer my contacts from my HERMES to messenger/hotmail. Can someone post a link to the appropriate download?
thanks
Scot

Great stuff!!! Just what i was looking for and nicely set out too love the the today page !!!!!

and it does not seem to work..
Please please do help me out here.
Thanks in advance.

If you want your Hotmail mails in your WinMo to be synced with Outlook -
1. Make sure that Email check box is checked i.e. when you are syncing - Email is shown in the list of items to be synced.
2. In outlook, you will find two folders, Personal Folder and Hotmail. The Hotmail folder is NOT synced with Activesync. Simple drag all mails in the inbox from Hotmail Folder to Inbox of Personal folder. That should work.
Unless you have a GPRS connection the link you have described will not work.
Hope it helps

Load up the messenger application on your device, it should ask you to log in and if you want to sync your email...
But in all honestly, you're better off setting up a gmail account and using activesync on your device - it will give live mail, and sync contacts and calendar all the time automatically.

I've made a Gmail account. And i've synced my Hotmail with Gmail. It will take a few hours or days. Then i synced my Microsoft outlook 2007 on my laptop with Gmail. Connected the USB and successs!! I synced my Gmail with my phone.
But i dont understand why i cant send out or receive any email? I'm using my WiFi. Is it possible to Send/Receive while using WiFi instead of GPRS Internet cause thats very expensive ^^
But anyways, thanks it works. If only i could send/receive mails now.. Hopefully not by GPRS.

Depends how you've set up gmail...
you need to set up gmail as an exchange server, with the address m.google.com, and sync mail, contacts and calendar only. Then you get true push email, you don't need to conenct activesync to your pc at all, should all work over wifi.

What do you mean? How do i check that settings?

Go into activesync, then congigure server. Try and delete the server source you have, then create a new one.
Username iis your full gmail address, server is m.google.com, leave all security settings ticked.

hi, i had the same problem, i resolved it this way:
when you want to configure your hotmail account like any other email in your mobile,
i think the problem is that the Touch 2 (or WM6.5) has some mail-server account settings pre-configured, and the hotmail one is wrong. i managed to use hotmail both as IMAP and POP3 by just entering a wrong e-mail address (like [email protected]), then entering the right serer settings for pop3 or imap (found in hotmail's help by searching pop3 or imap), and finally, after finishing the configuration, just edited the e-mail settings and altered the email address with the right one (@hotmail.com).
now it's working perfectly, just like gmail or any other mail service.
hope this helps.

unable to add hotmail email account

Hi ive recently upgraded to the new O2 rom and since cant add my hotmail email account, g-mail works fine but every time i try and add hotmail i go through the settings and it just launches opera and goes to log in over the web. i just want to look at my mail on the phone like i used to i dont know whats going on.........
tried hard reset still no joy?????

If you don't already have it on your HD2, search for and install Windows Live.
Once you have this installed, you can set it up in there, and it will display in your email tab etc.

[Q] Did anyone ever get hotmail ActiveSync work ?

I came to know hotmail connector in outlook might be the great sync tool between outlook and my Milestone2's contact
But I never get it Activesync done correctly on milestone2 to make sync start between my live.com contact to the phone.
anyone has good experience to share?

Just add a hotmail account to mail motoblur account setup, let the rest starting automaticly then...
Edit: ActiveSync in only for Windows Phone i guess...
Sent from 2nd age of the Milestone

I saw some posts on adroindforum.com to sync hotmail contact and schedule by ActiveSync in "cooperate exchange" setting on Android phone. But I just can't get it right with following setting
