Email Synchro - Help needed

Here's the scenario:
- On my PC I have Outlook 2000 with my Gmail POP account.
When I synchronize with Universal, it puts all my messages to "Outlook-Email". But when I set up my Gmail POP account on the Universal, it doesnt let me use the synchronized message folders to store new retrieved messages. It only allows me to create another set of inbox called "Gmail". Which is annoying because I might have some messages on my phone which I dont have on my PC.
I cant even move messages on the Universal from Inbox (Outlook-Email) to Inbox (Gmail)....
Any help, or anyway of merging and using same pop settings as Outlook on PC to send mail from the Universal??
Please Help, and Im sure some people are facing similar problems.

Outlook Email issue

I can not get my Outlook Email to sync or operate at all. I don't know how to attach my hotmail account to this. Can anyone help? I was unable to find any solutions in this forum.

I'm very new to pc phones & data access (have had my AT&T wireless data and 8525 less than 2 wks.) and I recall having to do a little poking around to attach my hotmail account. But, what I did to get things working initially was to go to http://mobile.msn.com, enter my username/email address and password, and then hit the 'Hotmail' link whilst signed in to see my hotmail email.

Thanks Jefson, but on the device under Messaging, you can view Text, MMS, and Outlook Email accounts. This is the method I want to view my emails because it provides a little more options in sending and receiving emails rather than going to the mobile MSN account through the IE browser on the phone. Thanks though

I should add more information on my phone. I have a Tytn phone and I just recently upgraded to the Dopod version of WM 6. It's great so far, but just the Outlook Email is giving me problems. I was able to sync this with ActiveSync and my hotmail account on WM 5..???

outlook - contacts sync
I have the same problem. Using active sync I can sync everything apart form my contacts - (Im guessing this is because contacts are sync'd through outlook which is also not working). I took my HERMES to the orange shop where I baught it and they said to download a newer version of active sync. Although I cannot find active-sync for download anywhere.

Do you sync to a company server or is it only to your local PC?

hot mail
if you install msn it will ask you if you want to associate your mail account also
click yes
hey presto
off you go

rwcozens - I sync to a local PC, my own laptop
blowfeld - Is MSN avaliable to download to non USA users? Where do I get it from?
thanks
scot

Here you go.

msn
its actualy the windows live that comes with the schaps 54b rom
initialising that will set up the contacts and email for hotmail
it works in uk

mobile messenger / mobile msn live ??
I have not found a place to download windows live or messenger that will allow me to transfer my contacts from my HERMES to messenger/hotmail. Can someone post a link to the appropriate download?
thanks
Scot

Great stuff!!! Just what i was looking for and nicely set out too love the the today page !!!!!

How to sync e-mail!?

Hi. Im new to WinMo completely, and there is one thing i dont get. I cant sync e-mails as it says it does. For example, in my phone there is this Outclook E-Mail account which has nothing and cant be configured ot nothing. Why is it there!? i can configure other account individually like, from Gmail. But then what is this email sync that doesnt sync my emails, its nonsense! (Im pretty sure im the nonsense one here, but thats what i want you to plaz explain to me)
Ive read guides and searched on internet but nothing. I really thought that Outclook email would be reserved for the config account on my PC Outclook, but nothig happens!
Need heeelp!! Im really stressing out. Forgive my ignorance hehe

outlook mail == the mails the pda sync with outlook on your pc
activesync settings deside how old mails it sync to save space
it can't be removed
it can only be filled with mails from your outlook mail

You can use this for syncing mails with a Microsoft Exchange Server too. I use it for getting my emails directly ("Microsoft Direct Push") everywhere. If your Company (or your Administrator) doesn't provide this for you, there are some hosting provider which are providing these accounts for everyone.
In addition it syncs contacts and calendars too. With these abilities and the special features like Remote Desktop Client, Putty and VPN the Xperia ist my real mobile office .
But one thing is weird: too many people have my tel-number, so often the X1 gives strange sounds out and i have to break my relaxation...ähhmmm ...work

[Q] I don't want my Win Live Messenger Contacts

Title pretty much explains!
With facebook and secondary email accounts, under settings you can disable them from importing contacts into WP7's contact area... but with the main Windows Live ID you use to activate the phone, there's no tick box to disable the importing of messenger contacts.
Now my phonebook has like 300 entries of people who don't even have phone numbers... help?! Please!

Yeah! I've got the solution for you, i run into this problem as soon as i got my activation code and got my hotmail account up and running, all you got to do is go to your mail account and delete all the contacts in the contacts page then re-sync your live account from your phone and *bam* unwanted contacts are gone!

Then all your contacts store in Hotmail are gone?
I have just posted this against another similar post, would it work?
I posted this elsewhere and didnt get any real work arounds.....
(I returned my OE WP7 and returned to HD2 on WM6.5).
However, just a thought.....
MyPhone is only for WM6.5 but using ActiveSync you can sync mail, contacts, calendar & tasks with Outlook. I read on the Microsoft forum that you can download Hotmail Contacts to Outlook, and export from Outlook to Hotmail.
If I were to return to WP7, which no doubt I will do:
Contacts:
I would Sync WM6.5 with Outlook, then upload them to the Hotmail account I would be using on WP7. I remember (and may stand corrected) that when you register the Hotmail account on the device, the Contacts are automatically downloaded.
WM6.5 using Windows Live allows you to download Hotmail contacts to my phone, so I guess they would also sync.
Doesnt cure my original issue that I wanted my Phone and Hotmail contacts seperate. I may have to create an additional Hotmail account for that?
Calendar:
On my version of Outlook, I can have two calendars showing - one for the PC which is synced to my phone and one which is my Hotmail. I havent found a way to automatically sync them, but its easy tp drag an appointment from say my PC calendar to Hotmail and therefor on to WP7.
Regarding texts, theres no way like MyPhopne, just copy what you can to your sim card I am afraid.
Does that sound like it might work?

[q] want to migrate to android, but want to keep hotmail (full html) please help!!!

I am tires of WINMO 6.5, and WP7 is not what I want. The only thing is that I can't give up my hotmail, and NO I don't want POP3 version, and the exchange trick won't show me attachments..... not html etc.
I want hotmail to behave like any an regular email client.
As of now this is how I am setup on winmo 6.5:
1. PH#s (contacts with PH#s) + Calendar = Gmail, synced via microsoft exchange (I do this because I use Google voice)
2. Email (Hotmail) + Email contacts - synced via windows live email client
Any advise will be greatly appreciated. Also... I would like to combine somehow all my contacts in one directory that will be synced somehow between gmail (for google voice texts and calls) and hotmail (since I use this all over my PC's and add contacts from different locations. Can I do all this and use ANDROID?? Please help!! Thank you!!! - Peter

lol you already have the right parts. Just finish adding your contacts to Gmail. Sign in to your Gmail account as your Google account on your Android phone and you can automatically sync your Google calendar and Google contacts. You can even auto sync your contacts so that as soon as they're in your phone they'll be added to your contacts. If you're worried about all your email only contacts showing up in your dialer, then you usually have the option to only show contacts with phone numbers.
Gmail (as with most e-mail clients) supports HTML.
You've just reminded me what a PITA WM6.5 was. It was workaround after workaround to get the last workaround to work. There's a reason Microsoft dumped the old "Windows Mobile" name and start fresh. 6.5 compared to ANY modern smartphone software is just dumb. Sorry for the rant, I think I was getting flashbacks @[email protected]

In Gmail you can add your hotmail, yahoo and others through an interface(PC only). When you have your gmail account open in a browser(PC) click the gear in the upper right corner and select mail settings. Then select accounts and imports tab and it's the second option. Super easy as I have done it. As for mail, there is a @mail app built into android. Just google hotmail android and you'll find pop3/imap/exchange settings everywhere. And I do believe that @email android app is HTML viewable.
There is no reason at this point to keep that old 6.5 phone, jump over to Android and you'll totally forget you ever had a lesser phone.

But.. still if I add Hotmail via exchange, it wont let me view attachments... Pop3 is not the way to go, since is not a complete sync with the server (I check Hotmail from different PC's and add/remove contacts constantly. Pop3 won't sync that)

So does this mean I will switch from Hotmail? And when I reply to an email received at hotmail will show my gmail as sender? Again, I don't want to switch from hotmail. All I want is an "email client" for android that fully suports hotmail with 2 way sync. I hope you understand.
P.S. looks like my post shows up twice. How do I delete the other one?
Thank you you guys for your help!!!

I believe "Enhanced Email" for Android does what you're looking for. It can use Exchange ActiveSync and has an option for HTML email.
Also, if you want to sync Gmail and Hotmail contacts, try Soocial.
