Pocket Outlook and fonts - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Is there a way to change the font of SENT mail in Pocket Mail/Outlook?
Sent mails appear always in TimesNewRoman (yikes) if you retrieve them via let's say Outlook. Is there a way to change this? I'm not talking about the display at the phone, that's OK, I'm talking about the actual font settings for sent mails.

How does email sync with Outlook actually work? Plus syncing sent items

Hi there, I've searched quite a lot but there isn't much I could find regarding syncing with Outlook via activesync..
Like a lot of people I have a gmail account and download that via pop mail on my pc via outlook. I've also set up the same gmail account on my hermes. Now, how is outlook syncing meant to work exactly?
I can see that when synced, all my emails that arrive and are sent on my pc get copied to the "outlook" folder on my phone. Fine, I can view all my pcs messages on my phone.
However if I send any emails via gmail, these do not get copied to my PC's sent folder, and I can't see a way to get this to work. I cannot copy any messages from the gmail sent folder on the phone to the outlook sent folder on the phone. So I can't keep a tab or archive any messages I sent on my phone, on my PC.
If I use the 'outlook' account on my phone to send an email, it just waits on the outbox until I resync and then sends through my outbox email, right? Isn't that pretty pointless? I'm wanting the emails to be sent when I'm not ON my pc! So I can either send emails (but they won't sync) or get synced emails, but only if it sends when connected to my pc (pretty useless).
Does anybody have a way where I can send emails from my phone, using my gmail account so that it sends straight away, and the sent messages will be copied to my outlook sent messages upon syncing?
I realise that I could use an imap server to fix this but I don't really have access to one. I know google can keep a record of all sent mail, but there will still be holes in my outlooks sent items - I am looking for a solution that works with all pop mail accounts.
Thanks a lot!
FWIW, I usually get rid of my Outlook eMail account (it's so redundant ... I already received that mail in my OptOnline POP box) by first ensuring that the Messaging app is pointing to Text Messages, and then browsing to
HKLM->Software->Microsoft->Inbox->Svc
in a Registry Editor and deleting the entire key underneath that for "ActiveSync".
Then ... whenever I send mail (that I wish to keep a copy of) from my 8525, I BCC myself on it. Maybe there's a better method, but this procedure works OK for me.
Just remember (if you're gonna delete the Outlook Account through the registry edit) to make sure that Messaging is currently parked on a different account than the one you're deleting before making the reg change!
Hope this helps,

Gmail Imap POP3 Sent Box ? ? Help

This is what I"m Interested in. When I send emails from my Tilt, I want them to save to my Sent box, Just Like a regular txt message. I have Mail2web email but they dont provide this feature for the free Account. I love mail2web but the no sent emails in the box is my only Gripe. Now to remedy this I tried setting up Gmail, But for some reason when I set up Gmail using Pop3 any outgoing mail I send will appear back in mt Inbox as Well as my sent Box( This is Very annoying). If I set up Gmail using Imap, nothing will get saved in the Sent Box....
Any Ideas or can anyone help me with this Bug in Gmail or a better way to set this up ?
As of yet I havent been able to fix this.
In outlook 2003+ on windows you can specify IMAP folders but as of yet on Winmo I havent been able to do this.
Ok I thought I was the only Idoit not getting this to Work ! It's annoying and I've been working on it for about a week.... I"m Puzzeled !

I Dont mean Including the Orginal txt in the Email. I mean it will resend me my out-going Email As a New email in my Inbox ?
It Does this online as Well from an actually Computer ? I"ve never experienced this ?
Has anyone ever found a solution to this ?
sending is not handled by pop3 or imap both those protocols are only for recieving
both of them use smtp for sending mails
i'm using IMAP for my gmail access and the default is to not sync the sent folder, anything i send only resides on gmail itself, i don't get it showing in my inbox as well. Haven't tried setting sent to sync as well, i don't need to see what i have sent.
mail2web is aggrivating me, any other FREE accounts out there? It wont sync 2 save my life,...
OK, just gone into the folder management side of my PPC's gmail account and flaged Sent items for sync as well as my Inbox and hey presto they have all appeared. Had to make sure the folder at the top was checked and not the obvious sent folder but its synching my sent items.
To clarify my PPC gmail folder list looks like this:
Gmail
[Google Mail]​All Mail
Bin
Drafts
Sent Mail
Spam
Starred​
and below this i have folders for any categories i have created as well as the default Inbox. Checking the top Sent Itmes has synched it with gmail.

Email Icons

Hi
Does anyone know of a way to change the email icons displayed on the Windows Mobile 6.5 interface?
Hotmail has it's own Icon and Outlook has the Outlook Icon so there must be a way of doing it.
Anyone?

Alternative email apps - Exchange Sync

Hi I am looking into alternate email apps. I use exchange server 2007 and would like to ability to search all mail for my account on the server not just those downloaded to the handset).
I believe Active sync on WinMob does this already.
Also is there an app or a way to change the existing app to store all mail on the SD Card so I can sync my entire mailbox (sent items, sub folders etc.) and not just the inbox?
I can recommend you Touchdown for Exchange from Nitrodesk. In my opinion there isn't a better soft for using Exchange on Android.

Have you got this running on the Desire ? Can't find it on the market, only the license.
Activesync or Outlook 200-
Hi all
I'm trying this app as Iwanted to be able to access folders. Whats the best to use Activesync or exchange 2003 ?
Many thanks
Yes, it works on Desire. Paying for licence is also needed, but worth of it.
Search for "Nitrodesk" on Market and you will surely find it.
Goodluck, Michael

Also take a look at RoadSync from Datawiz. The best looking app, with the best integration.
If you're using Exchange, what exactly is the problem with the default Mail app? It syncs to Exchange, and syncs contacts, mail, and calendar.

Apparently it depending on your MS Exchange version.
We have 2003 and the default doesn't let you search the GAL. Also no ability to remotely wipe the device. I also had strange issues with sending mail either failing or being sent multiple times.
I think Nitrodesk is butt ugly.
Try MoxierMail
Looks like the default mail app so fits the theme of the phone, the widget is VERY pretty.
And unlike the default mail app like someone asked, you can sync tasks!

I have a 2007 exchange server and use Push. When using the default mail app, mail disappears from the Desire, it's still on the server and shows up in Outlook. I've lost 100's of mails at a time. It happens when a sync is in progress and you move from one data connection to another i.e. GPRS to 3G or to Wi-Fi or back again.
I've been using touchdown for about 10 days, and it's working much better - no missing mail but read and deleted mails aren't always updated, but that's better than them disappearing.
Thanks for theheads up on Moxier.. not heard of that one.
Q. which of these, TouchDown, Moxie, RoadSync handles Subfolders the best. ie i want to be notified if any email goes to any folder and not just the INBOX. ideally id like to quickly see UNREAD emails in one place (regardless of which folders they reside).
At the moment the default HTC client doesnt sync subfolders until you go into each one

I was getting annoyed by exactly the same thing! I had set up filters and labels on my Gmail account, but on my Desire I would only get notifications for mails arriving in my inbox.
I installed Touchdown the other day, and after a bit of fiddling with the settings have found that it does exactly what I/we want! It will alert at any mails that arrive (you select which folders to sync in the settings and it checks them all at) and you can set it to view all mails, regardless of the folders.
Would definitely recommend so far!

[Q] How to change outgoing fonts in Email?

Hi,
Having a Galaxy S4, when i send an email from my stock Email application (using Activesync service), in Microsoft Outlook and for all users, my email is reading with "Times New Roman" font.
I verified, there is no way to change the font in outgoing emails.
Is there a solution or other application email that can do that?
Thanks.

I would like to know this as well, my employer specifies that all outgoing email font be a specific font. I am very surprised there isn't an obvious/solution to this.
It seems that we have to change the CCS sheet associated with mail apps.
However, I do not know where to find it!
If anyone knows how to change it then we could change the font
