Is there anyway to change the "Reply From" email address on the handset? The Windows Live website allows me to utilize an alternate email addresses to set as my default 'reply from' address. However, the handset only has the default Win Live logon ID as my reply address. I don't see any selectable email options at all. Is this a limitation or a bug of Win Live on the X1 handset?
Anyone has any idea on this?
would love to know the answer to this as well
Cheers
except im on a hermes using win 6.1
but its the software that matter eh

I recently got this email from att yahoo:
Dear AT&T Yahoo! Member,
We're making some security improvements to your AT&T Yahoo! service. These changes will affect members who send or receive email from a desktop or mobile client program, such as Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Outlook Express, Eudora, Apple Mail, or Thunderbird.
To help us ensure the security of your email, you will need to change the settings on your desktop or mobile email client program.
you may take the following steps to change the settings on your desktop or mobile email client program:
Open your email client program.
Locate the email account settings for your particular client.
Change the POP server to pop.att.yahoo.com.
Change the SMTP server to smtp.att.yahoo.com.
Check the option labeled Use an encrypted connection (SSL) and change the SMTP port to 465.
Check the option labeled Use an encrypted connection (SSL) and change the POP3 port to 995.
Confirm the above settings then click OK.
I already tried my first comandment "Thou shalt not ask before search!" but alas I can't seem to find how to change ports on e-mail set up. I'm running wm6 but I don't know if wm5 had this abbilty as I didn't need it then. Any help would be great!
So, mabey I should have posted under wm6 & titled the post photon question. At the very least somebody would reply to flame me or something. lol
I had the same problem. Turned out to be the operator. They do not offer full Internet services, only WAP and unencrypted e-mail (i.e. no SSL). The problem sorted itself out after switching to another operator . . .
Add a colon then (port #, no spaces) after each in/Out server. That is how I have it set up with my 8525/ wm5
Thanks, I'll give that a shot. If not I guess I can open a hot mail account and forward email till att fixes the auto set up in August (per the "help" desk)
Is there a cheap/free Directpush package that can be installed on your own Personal non-business Exchange server?????
I have Windows 2000 server at the moment.
yes, like I have...
U must use Exchange 2003 SP2, otherwise it won't work. this in combination with Windows Mobile 5 or 6 with the Ms Direct Push functionality in it you can configure your PDA to receive instant email on your device..There are white papers abou this which can be found on Microsoft.com...

Dont know whether that is somethink for you "emoze"

Hi there,
take a look at OLXMobileAccess on http://www.gangl.de. Works perfect for me (private) an for my company. Single licence is about 120 Euros. But this solution works better than ExchangePush. Provides you the ability to decide which folders to push an which items (new, changed). Works even for Outlook Notes. And, you can directly access your exchange and change items on the fly !
Best regards,
Jochen
In case you are wondering if you need to install the hotfix Microsoft released yesterday for the deadly SMTP "bug" in WinMobile: You don't need it, since HD has 6.1.4, and patch is only needed for up to 6.1.3 . Only remedy until now was hardreset, for pre-HD.
Link to MS hotfix page: http://bit.ly/Kv5b
This behavior is associated with a feature that was introduced in Windows Mobile 6.1. It provides a way for users to send e-mail through an alternate outbound e-mail server provided by their mobile operator in the event that the default outbound e-mail server becomes inaccessible.
The problem occurs if a mobile operator doesn't use this feature, and therefore doesn't supply a value for the alternate SMTP address. When the mobile device fails on any attempt to connect to the e-mail provider's default SMTP server, Windows Mobile 6.1 automatically loads the value for the alternate SMTP server—which in this case is blank. The e-mail account configuration details are then corrupted, which results in loss of the ability to send e-mail with that particular e-mail account.
With this fix, the feature is patched to ensure that Windows Mobile 6.1 takes appropriate action when it detects a blank value for the Alternate SMTP server.
TT and Garmin did work, but now not getting gps fix, advice please.

hi there
i just want to make clear that the smtp bug is NOT fixed on WM 6.1.4 . I recently bought the HD
and it has like mentioned before
WM 6.1.4.0 running on it, but still i cannot send emails,
it wont connect with the smtp server. Can anyone tell me wether an un-
official fix is available for the smtp bug on WM 6.1.4.0?
i looked everywhere but found nothing.
thanx in advance
same problem
6.1.4 is not fixed, smtp fails... and you can't install the fix that works only until 6.1.3
please help, I tried anything but I can't find any good tip or patch around..
thanks
I do a lot of email on my HD, before with SMTP. But I prefer Push (receiving email on my HD automatically), so if your provider supports Imap maybe Imap Pusher Service is for you:
http://www.codeplex.com/ImapPusherService
The program is no longer supported, and has a bug freezing it when it cannot connect to the server for a prolongued time (no signal), but it works fine in major coverage areas. I use it with Gmail and German GMX.
Well, since the bug is basically that your operator has not set a secondary SMTP server in the registry, maybe this reg entry suggested by ButtonBoy from this forum here could help you.
1. Add the reg key “Operator” to \\HKLM\System\Inbox\Settings
2. Add the reg key "OutgoingServer" below Operator key.
3. Add the reg val (reg_str) "OutgoingServer" below Operator key- “127.0.0.1”
4. Soft reset
Of course this is not a working SMTP server, but maybe your Outlook Mobile will be happy with it.

I tried buttonboy fix...
doesn't work
smtp settings from my provider are:
incoming:
mail.xxx.com ssl activated
smtp:
smtp.xxx.com ssl activated
username and password different from incoming
Ok, just to make sure, and since the smtp/imap bug corrupts your mail account and settings, did you try the buttonboy fix with a new mail account, not an already corrupted one I hope.
The Outlook Mobile team on the blog says its working on a fix for the fix, but only covering problems with the initial fix not being validated by a certificate on the mobile. Doubt this will cover problems you have.
In the meantime, maybe you could try out Flexmail trial client as an alternative to Outlook Mobile messaging.

thanks...
I'm trying flexmail
my provider told me that maybe the bug it's depending on their server not running windows but linux.
Hi,
I have a strange problem with the config of Outlook on my Windows Mobile 6.5 which I hope someone might be able to offer some help with. This is on a HTC HD2 with standard ROM, v 1.48.405.2 (71294) WWE.
I have configured it to connect with our work Exchange Server, and all is well, except for the "from" email address. On our exchange server I have several smtp email addresses associated with my account, for example:
[email protected] ; [email protected] ; [email protected] (a total of 5).
My main address is [email protected], but for some reason when I go to send an email from my mobile device the from address is [email protected], and I cannot find any way to change this.
I checked the device registry and found an entry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ActiveSync\Partners\{xxxx}\EmailAddresses
The contents of this entry showed all my smtp addresses, and had my main address as the final entry, and [email protected] as the first entry. So, I thought it's worth a try to swap them around - I did this, and did a soft reset, but the problem still persists.
Has anyone any suggestions ? Any help appreciated.
(Hope I explained this clearly).
Regards, Jon.
Resolved - using correct default smtp address now
Managed to resolve this, in case anyone is curious / has similar problems. I cannot be 100% sure which action resulted in it working, but I did the following:
- had our IT admin delete then re-add the smtp email addresses to my account, ensuring correct one was marked as default / primary
- deleted the Outlook account from my HD2.
- Created the Outlook account as new on my HD2 (I did this on the phone itself whereas last time I created using Windows Mobile Device Center)
It picked up the correct default email address immediately, and checking registry (location in original post), only the default email address is shown now. Previously all smtp email addresses were listed.
I am suspicious of creating the Outlook account in Windows Mobile Device Center as causing the problem in the first place - my Exchange Server account was previously working fine with a Touch Pro. But cannot be 100% sure without going back and retrying, which as I have it working, I am not going to do at the moment.
Anyway, I shall stop replying / talking to myself now.
Jon.
I have the same problem..
How is it possible to change the adress which you want to use for sending the email?
My Exchange pushes all incoming Emails I receive from different accounts, but sometimes it would be fine to answer with the right Email account.. But I found no solution yet..
Any news from your side jh9957?
Thanks and Regards,

I have purchased a HTC Shift from Ebay. It has Windows 10 pre-installed. I'd like to Liberate it and understand the guides but the issue is it is not possible these days to use the Shift email as no email servers seem to work due to SSL V3 being deprecated. Also as I am on Windows 10, Mobile Device Management does not work so it is not possible to form a sync partnership (unless someone knows how).
This leads me to not being able to find a way to get the liberated files actually on the Shift.
Does anyone know of a way that I may be able to do this ?
Just posting to reassure you that once you have liberated you Windows Mobile side, Windows Mobile Device Management will work with Windows 10.
Sorry this doesn't help with your initial problem. Have you tried different permutations of setting in the email account setting of Snapvue, or are there no setting available?
Thanks for the reply but no ability to change settings in the email account settings of Snapvue.

Sorry to hear that.
Install a quick and dirty email server on your LAN, send yourself email using that server just for this purpose. I'd do that if I were stuck. Good luck?
