I thought someone had told me, WM5 supported 'push' e-mail that meant you got your e-mails like text messages, when they happen, not when you chose to download them?
Anyone know what I'm talking about? Anyone know how to get it to work?
Thanks.
This needs to be supported by your email server... there was a lot of talk about Microsoft Exchange supporting 'Direct Push Technology'
See http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/exchange/2003/sp2mobility.mspx
or http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/business/5/ for information about the windows mobile software
hope that helps!
Hi!
Here's what you need to get it working using ONLY MS components:
1. Exchange 2003 + Service Pack 2
2. WM5 + Messaging and Security Feature Pack
Everything except the MSFP is available today, it's released to OEM (HTC...) and is probably available to the public jan/feb or march through an OS upgrade.
Cheers!
Hi,
I'm pretty lost here, trying to pull information from the net but don't seem to be heading anywhere..here's the problem.
I'd like to sync my contact information on multiple PCs using my Hermes on Black X WM6, currently using a free exchange account with Mail2web.com, however I can't allow activesync to sync with both exchange and outlook, and if i try to switch between the 2, i often get duplication of data..anyone can advise if there's anything I can do?
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
I have the same problem and curious to the solution. Can anybody help?
Thnx
Hi. I currently have an 8525 and have been using Outlook + Activesync
for a while now.
However, I recently downloaded Thunderbird and find it much more
intuitive than Outlook.
I wanted to know how to are sync thunderbird to my 8525.
I'm not very familiar on setting up "servers" so I would really
appreciate the help.
If you need, my AIM is "samz465".
A response back is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi Sam,
You may download a funambol plug-in for WM5 on their website and install it on your WM5 / 6 device, then connect your WM device to your computer which installed Activesync and able to make your device online, and make sure all your thunderbird PIM information sync to your Funambol v6 server already, at final - you start the Funambol plug-in on WM device and sync all information from Funambol.
BTW, I am using Funambol V6 on my WM6 HTC-Touch and my Vodafone 1210 SP also, found it is a pretty good solution for non-M$ push mail and wireless PIM sync solutions.
Ok, but how do I configure the client?
It's asking for like "server name" and stuff.
I have everything installed, I just don't know how to configure the client and DB setups.
Birdie Sync is a very easy alternative. It's cheap, updated almost weekly, and there's a good trial period. I love it, keeps all my thunderbird/lightning information synced and backed up.
I've used BirdieSync before.
I really liked it, but my trial ended and I don't want to pay $27 for something to sync my computer to my cell phone.
That's why I looked into funambol.
Funambol killed my phone
My phone had been fine since I flashed it in January, but I installed Funambol on the 11th, and the 12th my phone was dead. I can't access anything and no programs work. Has anyone else had this problem?

Dear all,
I set up an email account (my workplace's) for my jade today. I am able to receive emails. However, sending emails is not possible. I will get an error message sayin that "message cannot be sent... check if there is network coverage..." I use WIFI and i am sure that there is network coverage.
Can someone please advise on the solution?
Thanks.
Delete your account definitions and try again.
Try also to configure a gmail account for example...
Hi, i tried all means i could to no avail... the error message kept poppin out...
i installed the official microsoft hotfix (tried both the msi and cab versions), to my disappointment, it did not work.
i gave up on my company email account and tried my personal yahoomail account. i seemed to have a prob with the username, i tried enterin [email protected] or just simply XXXXXX as the username, but the system did not recognize it and gave an error message.... at the end, ya, i gave up again...
can someone please enlighten me?
i bought this smartphone with the purpose that i can send/receive emails on the go... but this bug is drivin me crazy.
somebody, help... and thanks.
Can U send emails using yahoo mail (or gmail, hotmail) through normal browser ?
For company emails, sometimes a certficate is required (especially outlook). Check with your administrator.
and try to set up the email account with the program http://www.mymobiler.com/ to be very sure not to mistype anything.
af the end, if nothing works, maybe a hard reset can help? be sure to backup contacts and calendar!
Mail
An Yahoo account is html based and if you want to send and recieve, just visit the website. On the other hand if you have an account from your isp you have to configure the pop and smtp server. Just follow the instructions on your Jade
If you are using POP or IMAP looks like your SMTP options are not correct. Check with you email account company
Dear azahidi, DaM79, hadimassa and colonel,
Many thanks for your posts... however, i gave up le... now i use opera browser to send emails...
By the way, will HTC release a Windows Mobile Pro 6.5 update for Jade? If it does, then upgradin to WinMo 6.5 might solve the problem.
I have seen people flashin their PPCs with WinMo 6.5. Is it tough and dangerous? Anyone can share?

did you try to do a hard reset? maybe you have some software installed which blocks the config... dont give up! via opera is not very comfortable, right?
wm6.5, we will see. i think i remember to have read about update possiblities on http://wmpoweruser.com or on http://www.1800pocketpc.com. the general message was, update yes, but it depends - in our case - on HTC if they will release an official update.
hi DaM79,
yes, sendin emails with opera is troublesome...
i actually had tried a hard reset, but the problem persists...
still, i thank you for your help.
winmo 6.5 looks cool... i think i will wait for an official ROM or at least, when a stable and bug-free custom ROM is available.
by the way, i love Jade, it is very useful.
are you using the stock rom? what does htc support say? i mean this cant be possible somehow. i had a wm5 device before, ipaq, and email setup was more difficult but worked.
hi Dam79, i did not consult htc support and i dun think i will. does a stock ROM mean the original ROM that comes with the phone? if so, yes.
Can't send out emails too!
I have EXACTLY the same problem! I can receive emails from my work and from yahoo, but can't send out. The same error message appears and when I try to configure the email settings again, the password saved by my phone is always different than what I originally set. In the end, I also gave up and just used the browser. It would be good, though, if this problem's solved.
I bought my jade from Singapore; maybe it's a ROM problem?
Can't send emails
Is there anybody who has encountered and solved this problem?
Hey guys,
I've searched the web and this forum but wasn't able to find an answer to my question.
I own a jade since 10 month and since 2 weeks I have a data flaterate due to my job. Since then I'm using push mail to sync my phone with our Exchange Server (push elemets if they arrive).
However, it's not working well and I'm not sure if it's a wm6.1 or jade problem.
- Sometimes my phone does not receive Emails, even if push mail is actived. I think sometimes it tells me that it is connected to the server and does not deliver emails anyway.
- The connection to the server inactive for a very long time, i. e., sometimes for hours! I only receive new mails after a reboot. This really sucks 'cause I need some mails quite quick and I don't want to sync manually all the time.
- My phone crashs, i. e., I see the green light flashing but the display is staying black or it is frozen.
- When turning on WiFi additionally, it's even worse. My jade turned off for 3x times last week at one day.
Has anyone the same problems? Is there anything I can do about it? Updates for wm 6.1, does wm 6.5 solve the problem? Or is it the jade hw?
Btw, at my company blackberry is not supported, so I need a solution working with exchange. so this is not an option. ...there doesn't seem to be many people outside using the jade like I do.
Cheers,
Ratsche

This is a problem because most people use blackberry in your situation.
I also have no experiences with push-mail and so I can not help you, sorry.
One solution might be to use a web-based email client that allows your email to be viewed via the web. Some corporate and government servers allow users to get their email that way. Basically, you would login to the appropriate server and see your email just like you would at Yahoo, Google or Hotmail. It becomes a question of whether your IT department wants to support a web service like this.
BTW, I know that with Yahoo Mail, it can be "forced" to a push/pull type service. You have to google how it's done and set up some things on your computer and Yahoo.
Another possibility may be to forward your business mails automatically to such an web-based service.
I was thinking about forwarding email as well. But I like to receive mails automatically and to get a notification.
But I'm still ****ed up about the push-mail solution. Can't believe that it is not working properly. I mean I can live with it, but is sucks...
Thanks for your answers anyway!
I thinks it's very much dependant on the Exchange Server (at source) and connection band status as opposed to Jade's capability. My experience is the same. I do not rely much on direct push, but more on ActiveSync by scheduling (Menu - Schedule) more frequent, e.g. every 20 - 30 minutes or so.
it is working on mine....
Hi!
My Jade running on 6.1 is synching fine with the companies exchange. No problems at all.
When the synchronissation is not working, is the internet connection ok? (can you open any webpage?)
Regards and good luck,
Stefan
I have no idea about the Exchange configuration, have to ask our IT guys about it. I'm usting using the outlook-web-access adress to connect with my jade.
I just don't understand why the connection is sometimes interrupted for hours and sometimes only for a few minutes.
Has anyone experince with wm6.5? Is it better for push-mail?
I have a similar problem. I have this phone too due my job, htc brand its more like a work-phone. I can recieve hotmail and outlook emails without problems. but can't refresh and sync my contacts!!!

I have no problem synchronizing my emails and contacts either way, phone to server or server to phone. Logically if you can receive outlook email, synchronizing should not be a problem.
I can confirm that the Jade 3G (WM6.1 & 6.5) works a treat with exchange 2003. Besides, configuring the Jade for exchange push/pull is absolutely no different from any other phone running 6.1 & above.
From what you've said, it sounds more like you phone has a fault on it. I can't remember the last time my phone crashed and it's running a cooked 6.5 rom.
i've been wanting to get that to work with my UniSA (University of South Australia) email. But doesn't seem to work, if anyone can help me would be a great help.

You need to be sure of the UniSA server name (usually webmail.xxx.com.au). And you need to get the certificate (filename.cer) in order synchronise.

You'll have to get your IT dept to assist in setting it up. There's more to it than just configuring your actuall phone.
Similar Prob
Hi
I have a similar issue but not with Outlook\Exchange. I have setup with gmail for IMAP and pull every 5 minutes using 3g operator connection. My problem is, which I guess is where issue is similar, when my phone in sleep mode I can wait anything from 30 minutes to 2 hours for the pull process to kick in and download mail (notification alert tells me). Now, if I turn phone on within that time, bingo, sync's and pulls. So seems the process isnt working as should when in sleep mode.
Any idea's or is this the norm? Again, I been thinking about flashing to 6.5 cooked ROM just to test. I know my mate has a Palm with Windows 6.1 and he has no trouble so seems Jade build issue.
Opinions welcome!
I have exchange working well syncing contacts, mail, notes etc and it pushes as soon as I get a maiil (infact faster than my pc when i am infront of my desk) and use the JADE for my company emails. I had the stock rom and now 6.5 and both work without an issue. It sounds to me like you have some software issue or conflict in your device that is causing it to crash. I would hard reset and perhaps install a stock rom to make sure its clean. Have you got your server address as owa.something.com. If you set up exchange its not an IMAP or POP service so you should not see that option.
