I have a problem entering my Email Account information.
After I check "other Email Account" I enter everything necessary, but HTC Sence saves wrong values. eg. let's say my Mailaddress is [email protected] but the server's name is imap.sherlockholmes.com. Then HTC does save the correct Emailadress but it always saves "jack" as User name instead of "[email protected]" which does not work with my Mail Account and the password I enter is always saved wrong, no matter what I try.
This problem did not occur with ROM 1.43 but it does since flashing to 1.48 GER, respectively.
Any help?
I found out that the problem does only occur when email address and user name are identical. But that's exactly what I need to have. I have to log on the mailserver with my email address as user name.
The only way around this Bug is to go to WM's email app and enter the information but leave the password field blank until the phone connects to the server for the first time. Then you are propted for user name and password by WM's email app. Enter the password and check "save password". From then on it works fine with the mail app in Sense.

On my Prophet I would like to use my Gmail next to my Hotmail account. I've enabled POP in my Gmail account and I tried to set it up on the phone. However, Gmail requires usage of port 995 for pop and 465 for smtp. There is no setting for the port on the Prophet. I tried inputting pop.gmail.com:995 and smtp.gmail.com:465 for the servers but that made no difference (it 'connects' but asks me for my login info while 'loggin on...' and yes I've tried it with and without @gmail.com and retyped my password several times).
Does anybody have a work around? Or.. an option I've missed? Or.. an hack to make it possible to use a different port? Or.. a name of an e-mail application that works on Windows Mobile that provides this feature?
Here, this is the way to set up GMail:
In the Server Information, click Option, and in the "Require SSL connection" box, check/enabled that option. Also, below it, check "outgoing mail requires authentication."
With these two enabled, GMail will work fine.
One last thing, you can only select "Get message header only". If you select get entire mail, once you download your mail to your PPC, you cannot download the mail anymore in your desktop via Pop3.
For Wifi connection, I would recommend you specify larger size of header to download, I use the max 999 KB of message body.
For slower connection like GPRS, I set mine to only download 10 KB of message body.
Hope this helps.
That's weird.. I tried what you propose but as I said it would keeps asking me for my login information? Since those are correct I assumed it was due to the fact that I didnt set the right port number anywhere?
Anything I'm overlooking here then?
Not sure what you miss. I will recommend you just delete that mail box and re-create it again. If it does prompt you for login information, I guess there is a chance you typed the wrong pwd.
But it should work fine. You can use your login without the @gmail.com
Does it work for you? On your Prophet?
Here's what I do @ Outlook E-mail:
* Menu | Tools | New account
* Enter e-mail address: flyingd*[email protected]
* Auto configuration (never goes past Download..) --> Next
* Your name: Full Name
Username: flyingd*tchman [or] flyingd*[email protected]
Password: Password (includes one capital)
* Account type: POP3
Name: gmail
* Incoming mail: pop.gmail.com
Outgoing mail: smtp.gmail.com
Domain:
* Options
Connection: The Internet (= T-Mobile GPRS)
Checked SSL connection
Checked outgoing mail requires authentication
* Finish
Then it goes 'connecting' followed by 'loggin on..' and it keeps asking me for my incoming E-mail username and password?
yes, i just verified my config with yours, line per line.
I have also my password saved there, and limit to 10KB header of message to download over the GPRS link.
Um, this is not a free solution, but you can also use Flexmail 2007, which is an excellent client and supports port changing and everything under the sun.
Does everything under the sun include checking for new e-mail say every minute and reporting new e-mail to the 'today' screen?
It can check for new email every minute.
It doesn't have a Today screen plugin which is one of the main faults of the program, I guess. However, it has the ability to stay minimized in the System tray next to the Wifi icon and it has the ability to notify on each new email so I guess it can tell you when you have new email.
I don't check for my mail every minute and usually use it with my Wifi connection so its perfect for me.
But it can do those things which you mentioned
Hi guys,
Im having a frustrating time trying to get my outlook to send email. I can receive just fine.
Just a note, my computer sends/receives fine and i use the same settings on computer and phone. I never user activsync because ive never been able to get the linux version to work for me.
My server requires authentication however i get this error when i try to send: "The message(s) could not be sent. Check that you have network coverage
and that your account information is correct. Then try sending again."
If i uncheck the option for authentication, the email bounces as it should saying relay is not allowed.
Im using the same settings as my computer, but I just dont see whats wrong. Im a linux user and built my webserver so i feel like i should be able to figure this out which leads me to thing outlook sucks lol
Any suggestions to try?

In 'Edit Server Settings' where it has your User name, Password, and Domain how do you have that set up? when i first did mine i set it up with all three, but it didn't work, and what worked for me was setting the username to be [email protected] leaving the Domain field blank -- so that is something to look into, and if it is different maybe try setting it up the other way just putting your email as the username and the domain in the domain field.
How do i find 'Edit Server Settings'?
In my inbox, i click the Menu button bottom right, click tools and options. then i click on the email account i created, which sends me through all the email settings in the following order.
Note: i never used Outlook email as it never let me specify pop or imap so i added New Account.
Email address -- [email protected]
Your name - james
Account display name -- greyed out
incoming server name lwp.ca
account type -- greyed out (its set to imap)
username -- [email protected]
password
outgoing smtp server: lwp.ca
requires authentication checked
use same user name and password for sending mails checked
Automatic send/receive -- set to manual
download messages set to from the past 30 days
message format : html
message download limit: headers only
download attachments: do not download
I am having the same problem with Alltel PPC6800 and I found out (by tethering with my PC) that some of their IP addresses are listed with Spamhaus.
If I keep trying it will eventually go through when the IP Address switches to one not listed.
Hope it helps?

Ive never tried tethering.. Ive been using the built in wifi or the data service with no luck.. I think its a crippled outlook issue..
Does anyone have suggestions for a free mail client that uses IMAP? If only thunderbird could be used

sorry when you said you use outlook to send i assumed you were using an exchange server -- since you are using IMAP what i said is irrelevant.
When you are at the point where it asks for the outgoing SMTP server, there is a link to 'Advanced Server Settings' at the bottom of the screen. clicking on that will allow you to require SSL for incoming and outgoing -- that would be my only other guess.
but i do find it strange that your incoming and outgoing mail servers are the same and not IMAP.lwp.com and SMTP.lwp.com or something similar.
ok so the only way I could get my hotmail to reciece emails on htc mail without it redirecting me to hotmail.com was to put in a false address in the username. now I recieve my mail but can't send as its really rubbish software and won't let me change it back.
can't find the registry address to change it.
is there an address in registry or a way to actually make htc mail work without just redirecting you to [Whotmail
thanks
When I used the HTC set-up wizard I had to manually enter it (seems that HTC don't believe hotmail to be one of the bigger mail servers)
If you add the account through touchflo. select manual setup after you entered your e-mail and password... then use
pop3.live.com
smtp.live.com
Otherwise you can add the account through Windows Live. Providing you have the most recent version, it will add the account rather than direct you to the website.
HTH
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.....
hmmm so how do i do this? will this sync word docos etc

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

check your smtp settings
When you are entering the email account, please use manual configuration. I use ATT-yahoo and the configuration of the servers are as follows:
pop: pop.att.yahoo.com (this is incoming)
smtp: smtp.att.yahoo.com (this is outgoing, where you problem seems to be)
both are security type: none (in both cases username and password is used)
Good luck

I tried but still not working " cannot connect to the mail server to verify your account information. Your server is not responding".
believe me I tried many variations and nothing worked
verify account information is good.
I do not know the extension for Rumania, but should be something like this:
1) configure the e-mail manually and use type pop
2) Once you enter you see protocol (pop)
3) e-mail (your complete email. [email protected]er contry extension I think "ru" (without apostrophes)
4) username (same with the @ yahoo.ru)
5) pop server: pop.mail.yahoo.com.ru
6) security type : None
7) server port: 110
on smtp:
1) check login required
2) username (same as in pop your [email protected]
3) smtp server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com.ru
4) security type: none
5) server port 25
Note in the US is without the ru at the end.
This should work. If it doesn't the problem is in your username or password
I tried but still not working. what problem could be from my username or password?
If using another email account works without problems.
Same problem here. i tried everything, stil not working
I realized the problem is coming or from yahoo servers or from htc because if i trying another mail account is working very well with nativ mail only with my main account i have problem and another thing the yahoo mail app from market it working very well with all my account including the main account. :-(
anyone find a fix? Yahoo & gmail NEVER notify or load new e-mails (stock mail app)...
