Hello everybody,
I'm a satisfied user of a MDA Vario, but I have some questions about tweaking the software. Is it possible to receive e-mail from pop3 accounts automaticly, like SMS? I don't wanna check it every time, I rather like it when it gives me an notification.
Thanks in advance,
Ruud
When setting up the email account there is usually an option to connect to the internet and check every X minutes for new email. X can usually be a value between 1 and 59 I think. That is what is normally available by default with the Windows OS I am sure there are other packages (that can be purchased) that offer more options. I use the same setup and it is fine for me
Yes there are others solutions as well. I'm using vgsmail for this. It's an imap client, so you need an imap account instead of a pop account. The software is still under development & not everyone is pleased with it. http://www.vgsmail.com/ppc/

One problem with this one though.
It doesn’t work from standby, your device has to be switched on to receive notifications.

Thank you, but I don't have an IMAP e-mail, I use DirectAdmin, and IMAP is not supported. I can't change the interval setting, I think there's no one.. could anyone give me detailled support?

On you wizard, open outlook, open your mail account.
Menu/tools/options
Select your mail acc
next (e-mail address)
next (user login)
next (acc type)
the server info page (page 4/4)
options:
Connect & check for messages every: <check box> <pick time period> <pick connection network>
Then it should use wifi/gprs/dun whatever you have set as the network type to check your mail to the frequency you require.
IF you only want it to auto check when on wifi, and not on GPRS (costs etc) you will need to edit your networks (you can add more to have 1 just for wifi) start/settings/connections/connections
Hope it helps
Thank you, this is where I'm looking for!

Trying to make a new profile for this, but wifi does not show up under "modem" connection. Am I missing something here?

in the advanced connections tab click "select networks" (this is where you made a new profile) set the new profile as "internet"
then it'll apear on the settings page, configure it as required then change back to normal network as required.
well, as the title implies, I have managed to get some of the mms features working on a telus titan phone
NOTE: as of yet I haven't been able to receive picture messages, but I can send them.
here's how I did it:
1. download then install the attached cab
2. under options -> advanced, then click the manual button and enter the following settings:
MMS Gateway: http://216.198.139.113
MMS URL: http://mmsfeplb01.int.eng.telusmobility.com:8088/mms
select which ever network profile you use for internet
and VOILA!!! half of the problem is solved... now if only someone could figure out how to receive them we'd be set, but I suspect that telus employs some means of the message being redireccted to their horrible online app to view the photos... which at present time, isn't displaying photos and they expire without me seeing them... good old telus, giving users the cutting edge while cutting out user support and features.
P.S. not too bad for my second post on these forums eh?

haven't been able to duplicate the results on arcsoft... I'm new to this whole MMS thing, is there anyway to run a trace and see how this program is doing what is does?
Well as you said it does work for sending, the receiving portion however, I don't believe you will be able to do it since TELUS' MMSC server is programmed not to forward MMS' to phones that have a specific user profile such as the P4000, instead is supposed to send you a net alert and have the pictures forwarded to telusmobility.com/snap.
Unless you somehow get someon to modify your user profile in the MMSC provisioning, there should be no carrier settings or registry tweaks that could help you out, unlike other carriers.
However, why don't you just log into telusmobility.com/snap, go to preferences and set it to forward a copy to your e-mail address. I assume you use e-mail on your p4000 and this will achieve relatively the same thing...
While we are at it, although it is much more convenient to naturaly MMS someone with ther telephone number, you could just e-mail them a picture to their phone, thus using your data plan and not having to pay 25 cents per picture message...
mms email address for telus phones: [email protected]
this should send it straight to a regular phone's wap browser and you just need to get the corresponding email address for Rogers, Bell and Fido

I've recently discovered that the e-mail forwarding function only works when receiving MMS sent from a Telus phone. MMS sent from other networks cannot be decrypted correctly so they're not forwarded to the specified email address.
The "save to album" also doesn't do anything. I've checked my photo album at https://photoalbum.telusmobility.com/index.asp . It looks like the site is still under construction or maybe it's just plain crappy. Nothing was saved there from my photo messages.
All and all, I'm very disappointed in Telus in handling (blocking) MMS. I'm searching for a working SMS2Email (or MMS2Email) services now. This way the person sending you the MMS can send it to your email instead. If anyone knows one that works in Canada, Please let me know. I really need to receive MMS somehow, and not on the crappy Telus Snap site (seriously, are they kidding?!?!?!).
Sorry to bump an old thread
This worked great for sending, but has anybody figured out a way to recieve yet?
I just installed it, used the telus server settings as described, but all mms keep getting rejected by server. I definitely double-checked the addys... anyone else follow these instucs with no joy?

this program is very hard to use with a non-touch screen smartphone. Anyway to get it sized for a smaller screen?

Make sure you always have a subject or it will be rejected.

I'm wondering if anyone here has tried these settings on Android. I can't make it work, and I've made sure to set a subject on the messages. I don't expect much of a response, but I thought I may as well give it a shot.

Because Snap doesn't work right. Never has. When the wife and I first got the HTC S720, a Telus tech tried to get her going on Snap... even pics HE sent to it never showed up. With mine, maybe 30% of pictures sent to me ever arrive at Snap, let alone get forwarded on.
Furthermore, viewing in Snap itself has always been an exercise in futility. The password is about 2,000 characters long; the only way to effectively enter it is cut-and-paste. The only way to get it is to have the server email it to you, and the last time I did that (after I flashed my phone and lost the password), the password *never* arrived. I requested it four times, and never got a response.
And IF you do get a long, the pictures you get there are tiny. My wife ended up returning the S720 and getting a KRZR, so she could do MMS properly... she sent me 1.3MP pictures that only ever showed up as QVGA on the Snap site.

I've tried this with Rogers and Fido phones... the recipient gets a text message from my phone's email address, containing a string with the picture's filename, but not the actual picture.
Frankly, Telus's implentation of this is uttery broken and always has been. I've heard a dozen different "explanations" of why MMS won't work on their phones, and every one of them rings as bull$#!t. The most common one for them to give is simply that "no PDA-type phones support it", which I shoot down immediately with the fact that my Rogers Treo does it just fine.
When my wife's contract is up in another 16 months or so, I know she's planning to jump to Rogers so she can get a Blackberry and still do her picture messaging. Telus will lose a 20-year customer if they don't fix this issue; they will have NO chance of keeping her if they don't get MMS working. My contract will be up a year after that, and I won't be far behind her.
Hate to bother, but where is this "options" to put in the information. How do you get to it from the today screen?
Okay, trying this... but I get a "Not enough memory to complete this operation" message when I try to send even the smallest picture. I'm showing 51MB free RAM and 8.8MB free device storage memory...

Look for a new "SMS" icon in your Programs... launch that, click Menu on the right softkey, then Options... go to Advanced tab.
There must be more info required there... maybe the OP could share his settings for Message Center and Email Center numbers?
HOLY CRAP, IT WORKS!!!!
Well, partly... like the OP, I can send, but not receive (yet). The Palm app doesn't want to run on my Omnia (I get the "out of memory" error), but an older Arcsoft install (PPCGeeksSprintMMS) does.
I followed the time-honored hack for that one to enable the server editing (HKLM\Software\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\UI\EnableServerEdit -> change 0 to 1), then plugged the OP's server settings into the config:
MMS -> Menu -> MMS Configuration -> Servers -> tap the server name to edit -> enter full Gateway and Server Address entries listed above, Connect via: The Internet, WAP: WAP 2.0 (Port will change to 80).
Now, Arcsoft, at least this version of it, is pretty clunky and doesn't integrate quite as nicely as the Palm app - the Palm one actually re-retrieved the last couple weeks' worth of incoming SMS messages as well(!!). This one keeps a separate inbox that so far is extraneous.
Update: okay, it worked... like, TWICE. I tried replacing the clunky ancient version of Arcsoft with a newer version and I haven't been able to get it to go since. I've even done a hard-reset and reinstalled it all clean... went through a bout of not being able to remove the WM6_threaded app as well.
If the OP is still reading this... could you maybe post your related registry keys? Thinking there must be some other string that I need, something that's either incorrect or missing... *sigh*
So near, yet so far away...
This is my 4 th HTC, always used a gmail account.
Used the same setting as my diamond on the HD, but still asking for a username when trying to connect.
problem in orginal rom, flashed dutty's, still my gmail account wont work.
What am i missing here
I have a gmail account and the HD set this up automatically.
Looking at the account settings I have:
Incoming server: imap.gmail.com
Account type: IMAP4
Outgoing server: smtp.gmail.com
Any use to you?
Yep have the same, very strange. Wont work, keep asking for a another username/ww

Sorry, can't help any more - try deleting the account and setting it up again (Sorry!)
k, thx for your help.
still searching, did a hard reset, made a new account, still no go.
My gmail account works normally. I have the spanish original rom.
I'll try to write all my settings. Maybe the name of the fields are different in english, but I think will be easy to understand.
- email: [email protected]
- Name: Any. Account name: any.
- Incoming server: pop.gmail.com Account type: imap4 (yes, the server is pop, and the account type is imap. Don't ask me, the HD configured these settings automatically).
- User name: [email protected] Pass: yours
- outgoing server: smtp.gmail.com. CHECK "outgoing server requires authentication" and "same username and password for sent".
- Advanced server configuration: UNCHECK SSL connection in both incoming and outgoing mail. Select appropiate connection.
- The remaining configuration don't matter.
Hope it helps.
Regards.
Nacho.
tried >> chanced incoming to pop, and unchecked the ssl. That where the only 2 thing different to my old setting. Stil asking for a different username/ww
No! Gmail requires SSL. Follow the instructions here

It will ask for your password also if you mistyped anything in the settings, check that.

Did this already several times, again did it on the diamond. Working great.
The HD with the same as above in link gmail wont work.
cant be the gmailaccount settings, they are right, must be something else.
btw im happy with the fast responce you are all giving thx
Wierd,
My HD just asked for username and set everything up automatically for me.
I think that was on the original ROM and I have used SPB Backup to restore everything after flashing to Dutty's ROMS.

Gmail issue
Also on my touch hd ( i change rom very frequently and so i set my gmail account different times)
i use EVERYTIME the same auto-settings, some times it makes the synch of the emails and sometimes it "seems" to work but nothing happens
the only way to solve the issue i found is to re-set the account, or to change rom

Gmail Password Weirdness
I have all the settings put in correctly.. what is happening is that Im inputting my gmail password in the account settings, then continuing saving everything, click on "send/recieve" and get the "cannot connect" error.
I go back and check my settings and my password has changed! I know this because my password length is ******* but when I go back to check the settings its always *********************
For some reason its just NOT saving the password as it should and its driving me bonkers!
Could someone please enlighten me as to what to do?

Hiya
Ok so ive had my x1 a couple of weeks now and love it to bits, however im really struggling with mms and wondered if anyone else has the same problem or if theres a tweak for it
Im on three network in the UK, and have got all the right settings on it .. I can send sms, and can connect to the internet via my network, but when I try to send an mms it will let me compose it but wont send. It just sits in my outbox looking pretty but refuses to go!
Any help would be greatly appreciated .. thanks
Mella
Go into you sms\mms folder (where your sms's are)
Go Menu. MMS Options
Goto the Servers tab and check that it is using the correct mms server
You have to create a new connection for mms, and set it to default for mms so it changes connection when sending mms messeges
Hiya
Yeh I have the three mms settings and they are set as default, but it still wont go .. any more ideas guys?
Check the following, but change telstra to three:
Go to Start, Settings, Connections, then Connections again.
Go to the Advanced tab
Choose Select Network
Change the second drop down box to Telstra MMS
Make sure you soft reset after making these changes
If you are still stuck give the x1 support hotline a call. They have fixed a few problems for me.
Most operators have a service that sends you the mms settings through a text message. The phone can then automatically pick that up and config it.
Some operators don't support the X1 yet though.
Hi buzz, thanks for getting back to me again!
It doesnt give me that option in that box unfortunately .. I debranded my phone using the uk rom
I dont get how it will let me browse the internet using three internet settings yet not send an mms through them, and ive checked my mms settings so many times. Aggghhhrrr its driving me crazy!
Ooooh wheres the help line number? I think thats going to be my next option ..

Yes unfortunately three dont support this phone so will not send me the settings, but ive found the settings online aswell as checking through my previous phone so im 99% sure im doing it right
Ok, you need to make a new connection in that menu for the second drop down box.
The first drop down box should say Three Internet (or similar).
Click the "new" button below the second drop down box and use these settings:
3 MMS settings
Access Point Name: mms.three.co.uk
Username: blank
Password: blank
Gateway IP (proxy) address: 217.171.129.2
MMS Message (Relay) Server URL: http://mms.um.three.co.uk:10021/mmsc
Then go into your SMS/MMS inbox and check that 3 MMS is your default mms server.
Last of all... soft reset and you should be right.
Woohoo it worked it sent it!
My last phone wasnt half as technical as this so its taking me a while to learn the ins and outs, but im determined to perservere as I love it so much.
Buzz your an angel .. Thank you so much for your help
Mella
No worries.
Make sure you keep these settings somewhere (especially if you are flashing new roms).
It took me a while to get my mms settings working (no thanks to telstra), but I'm always happy to help.
This may be old news but - if you're hesitant about activating your HD2 but still want to sync with windows live - you can use the hotmail-activesync server settings (m.hotmail.com) to access and sync your email(+push), contact and calendar.
Mate thats spot on. Just done that on my phone and it worked straightaway!
Many thanks for the suggestions, greatly appreciated
No problem. If you can live without the market place then this gives you the rest of the live services.
I'll activate once i know what MS decide to do, if anything.....

KrewsialNL: Thanks for adding the link.
rainsey: No not word docs just your calendars, contacts and email (incl push). For documents you could just email them to your hotmail account on your pc? not quite syncing but it will get the file on your handset without too much fuss.
I have a sharepoint 2010 account except the server uses basic authentication and i can't use the url to list the docs i use. I can assess them via webpage list for my docs but this is annoying it would of been nice to have the list maintained on WP7 or have sync like wm6.x.
Hotmail and skydrive is not the sync that i want to use or trust
I went to "Advanced Setup" under "Add an Account" and tried the following settings:
email: [email protected]
server address: m.hotmail.com
SSL enabled
username: [email protected]
password: password
Domain: <blank>
It won't let me click sign in with a blank domain so I assume that you just put a couple of random letters in there.
Then it keeps saying that the account information is incorrect, I've checked it 3 timees to make sure. Any ideas?
Nearly.... when you first set the account up put a couple of random characters in the domain field so you can complete the set up (the button to finish is not available until something is entered for the domain).
Once you've completed the set-up try syncing. It will fail and say theres an error with the account settings. but.... you're then offered a chance to change your username and password or modify the the advance settings.
Now if you go into the advanced settings you can delete the entry for the domain so it is completely blank - except this this time the option to complete the settings can be selected.
That should work
