Sending attachments through web email

When I use pocket explorer to check and send email using my web-based email accounts such as yahoo or gmail, the button to attach files to the messages doesn't appear when I create email messages.
Is this a natural problem of pocket IE? Is there any way to attach files to messages using web-based email and pocket IE?
most likely this has to do with how much PIE supports scripts/java and other things. I'm not so informed of exactly what the problem is, but suffice it to say that it is not supported in PIE. You might want to try netfront.
sorry, you can use a webmail like gmail which supports pop3 and then you can simply load those settings onto the Magician and work from there, that's what I do and it's far more convenient. If you don't have a gmail account and want one, PM me your email address and I'll invite you.
aha, thanks for the info Xilicon! Thanks for the offer as well. I have a gmail account already, but I haven't set it up for pop3 yet. I'll do that soon as I can. Thanks again!

Newbie questions - M5000 Email Options

Hi,
I have just upgraded from a very tired SE P900 to an Orange SPV M5000/HTC Universal and so far am loving it.
I run several email accounts and would like to be able to monitor at least two or three of them from the M5000, collecting the emails seperately as opposed to forwarding them all to a central inbox but there doesn't seem to be any logical way of doing it.
Also, what is the cheapest way of setting up some sort of push email functionality - I have only just started to look into this and see that Orange charge extra for the service.
I have updated (after problems with the Country ID error) to Orange's AKU2 ROM and have Exchange Server 2003 installed and have access to fixed IPs on the web, etc so can do a lot of things from my end.
Most of the time I will be using it at 3 different sites where I have wireless access and then occasionally would want to use either 3G or GPRS, whatever is available.
Any pointers would be appreciated.
For three seperate e-mail accounts, I'm not sure how to do that with normal POP email.
However, I myself run an IMAP server instead, and it keeps the IMAP emails in a seperate folder for each account. And as a big plus, everything you do is automatically synched between your email clients (e.g. when I read something on my phone, it's also marked as read on my PC)
I hadn't considered IMAP, however how do you deal with sending messages so that they go out of the different messages?
I need to ensure that the messages from the three accounts are kept totally separate with no confusion between sending addresses.

I'm not sure with multiple IMAP accounts, but I do know that if you press "New", it'll just start the message with the current account you're browsing. So if I'm browsing the SMS inbox and press "New" it'll send as a text message, and in IMAP it'll send as an email.
Think your best option would be to test
Sorry, I am a newbie to this. Would you tell me what is IMAP?? and how do i set it up to check my email account?? is it sort of like the push email??
Thx

The two main protocols for collecting email on the web are POP3 and IMAP - with POP3 your mail gets delivered into a POP3 mailbox at your ISP and you then login with your mail program to download the emails to your local machine.
IMAP was developed on the basis of leaving your emails on the server and then only grabbing the headers or message bodies that you are interested in reading.
For example I run my own Exchange server and connect to exchange from my desktop to read/send emails. I can then use IMAP from my Universal to connect and give me a view of my message on the Exchange server - it downloads the headers and shows the ones I have read/not read. When I read a message on the Universal it is marked as read back on the Exchange server and appears as read on my desktop and vice versa - this way I don't have any duplicate messages.
Sorry, a bit long winded, but should give you an idea of how handy it can be - the biggest problem is that few ISPs openly support it due to the message store overhead.
Thank you Julian. What program should i use for Imap???
I wanna give it a try. Is there any other softwares out there which givesyou the blackberrry function??

Windows live and pop3?

Hello again fellow Touch 3g owners,
So ive come across this article and i was wondering if anyone has tried this. Im not able to try it with the standard email application for the touch 3g. I have been using the windows live application to sync my emails but i dont like it because it only syncs emails i havent read and i think its kinda stupid to have to open another application just to sync ur emails. Would gladly appreciate any input on this.
EDIT:
Ok so ive got it working by following one of the comments of the article. The email program automatically detects settings for these 3 domains: live.com, hotmail.com and msn.com. You do not want this to happen, so what you have to do is enter a fake domain like [email protected] and then enter the settings found in the article. Remember to tick the box for ssl and authentication for both ingoing and outgoing in the advanced settings. when ur done you can change the accountname to ur real email. this worked for me (accessed my emails, havent tried sending yet but i dont think that will be a problem).
just an update
So ive got it working, however its not to my liking. It works great exept for a few things. One is that i cant preview the messages in touchflo, it shows when and from who but not a preview of the content. Second is that mails already read elsewhere it downloads as unread. And last but not least, it takes a long time to sync. So if any of you has found a workaround pleas let me know.
Why don't you just configure all your pop3 in the mail tab. There you can easily and quickly send/receive or sync.

I configured my mails (including hotmail) using the Mail Tab. Once configured it gives the icons on the right as to which accounts I am looking at. And when I tap Menu - Send/receive, the individual icons (accounts) shows how many e-mails have come in (still unread) for each account (if any).
Follow this link http://www.ghacks.net/2009/01/22/enable-hotmail-pop3-in-all-countries/ for hotmail configuration.
When first configuring, do not put [email protected][U]hotmail.com[/U], put something else (e.g. [email protected][COLOR="Red"]zzxxyy.com[/COLOR]). Configure manually, do not let it search. The rest follow instructions from above link. Once completed, then update - which gives fail. Then Tap Menu-Tools-Options-tap the hotmail email acc - and input all the correct info from there (the actual account login name, password.) Tap send/receive... Wallllla !!!!

Well, it depends on the beholder. I configured it in less than 5 minutes, just once. Well that's the only way now, that I know and would like to share. Others may have a much more simpler, easier and less complicated way. I don't know.
