Hi,
I use Intellisync to synchronise my HD2 with GroupWise at work. IntelliSync synchronizes e-mail, calendar, tasks and notes.
IntelliSync has to be installed seperately on the phone. It synchronizes on it's own and puts the synchronised e-mail in the main Outlook account on the phone.
HTC sense notices that e-mail is received, as it shows the unread e-mail count next to the little envelope in the sliding bar. However, it does not understand that an e-mail account is active and asks me to configure one.
After i configured other accounts it still does not process the Outlook account. I can not configure the Outlook account with false data, intellisync removes the configuration options.
Does anyone have a tip on how to get sense to process the Outlook account aswell? I take it sense has to store which accounts are configured somewhere in the registry. Perhaps Outlook can be added manually?

Help on this issue is very much appreciated? I have the same problem and it would significantly help to use the sense mail app for the most important mail account... .
I couldn't find much info concerning the email accounts within the whole registry. Only at a single location, which should mean:
1) last synced account - here Outlook is not recognized
2) The number of unread messages - here outlook is included.
Here are the registry details:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\State\Messages\OtherEmail\Unread]
"Text"="Web.de (36)
Google (2)"
"Count"=dword:00000026
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\State\Messages\sync]
"Account Name"="ActiveSync"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\State\Messages\sync\Unread]
"Text"="Outlook-E-Mail (18)"
"Count"=dword:00000012
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\State\Messages\TotalEmail]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\State\Messages\TotalEmail\Unread]
"Count"=dword:00000038
Does anybody know where the sense / vanilla / HTC mail application gets it's info where to look for emails? The "regular" messaging client (tmail.exe) has access to the outlook folder where the vanilla / HTC / sense application has not.

As configuration via PPC does not work I got another idea which I couldn't try out so far:
- Do an initial sync of email data via active sync by pairing PC and HD2 (be carefull as this might result in double entries, so have your inbox/sent/draft folder pretty empty and do not sync calendar, contacts, tasks etc)
- After this outlook mails should be visable with sense mail app (somebody showed me!)
- Use intellysnc again (probably with the option to overwrite mobile data with server data)
- check whtether sense is still seeing outlook mails
- don't forget to remove the active synce settings in PC active sync to prevent double syncs in the future
I cannot test this by my own during the next 2 weeks until I can connect to my PC again. Feedback would be nice.
Another question: What about the sense calender App. I have many entries where the sense calender App does only show title/time/date, but no detailed infos like participants, note etxt etc. Any solution for this?

I've just started using the Outlook Domino connector to enable me to use Outlook to access our Lotus Notes server, and more importantly, sync my Notes inbox, calendar etc with the i-mate without other third-party software (I was previously using mNotes from CommonTime which didn't totally satisfy my needs).
Whilst I'm now thrilled with the Outlook/Notes/i-mate sync scenario, which is working beyond my expectations, I'm a little hesitant to set up my Activesync to Exchange Server Account (from Club i-mate) which I also use for private email because I'm unsure whether this dual server via Activesync scenario will work (and I can't jeopardize my Notes mail / calendar integrity to check).
So, has anybody tried using Activesync to syncronize with their PC's Outlook inbox / calendar etc, PLUS a server sync with Exchange? What happens? Do you just end up with two Inbox items in Activesync? Does all your email etc from all accounts end up in the same PPC inbox (and then both accounts)?
Any first-hand experience would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Hi,
it is not possible to do both with ActiveSync. If you configure ActiveSync for server sync it no longer synchronizes with Outlook locally.
You can use IMAP or POP3 for your additional accounts, I am using Exchange for my main account and IMAP for other accounts and it works fine.
Okay Softworkz, that's what I was afraid of.
Unfortunately Clubimate don't allow POP (or IMAP) access for member email, so it's one or the other for me then.
Thanks for your comment.
Ooooh interesting - what was up with mNotes? =) Version 3.5 is out soon by the way - and I'm working on some stuff for our new website..
Hi Madkat,
I used mNotes on my original XDA and now my i-mate with great success for ages, until I made the mistake of creating categories for my contacts. Once I happened mis-type a category name and that was when I discovered that I couldn't delete them - at all.
No matter what I did I couldn't stop rogue categories from appearing in the drop-down list. After removing all contacts from the rogue category, and then deleting it on the i-mate (or Notes, it didn't matter), the rogue category would still appear in the drop-down list, and in the add / remove categories sceen as [category name] (not in master category list), or words to that effect. I also played around with the mNotes config app which is installed on the device (which was just about all I could find in the user manual relating to categories), but the manual didn't match what was installed (guess it hadn't been updated for that section), and I wasn't successful.
I actually posted a question on xda-developers about it, but wasn't able to sort it out. I just became frustrated in the end. I'm not sure I'd go back to it now because I'm so impressed with the Outlook Domino Connector and not having to use Notes for my e-mail at work - I hate notes as an email client, especially with all the 'customisations' our IT jerks have done; we don't have rights to do anything - can't even create rules to move mail to other folders based on content anymore. It's a shame they don't upgrade to Notes 6, but there you go.
TBH I hate Notes as a mail client too!! If I didn't have to do any Notes development I'd be using IMAP on the Domino server & Thunderbird on my PC.
I think it is worth mentioning, though, that during your 30-day evaluation you are entitled to full tech support by email and/or phone - bit late now though! D'OH.
i just do not want to open another topic....
i have a pc with win xp and ms outlook... ms outlook is set up with an exchange server for all items (email, calendar, tasks etc)
is it possible to sync, via activesync, my windows mobile device with the content of ms outlook on my pc? the purpose is to have the same calendar, tasks and contacts on my phone WM device also...
thanks
Hi guys
I'm wondering whether it is somehow possible to override the limitation of Activesync in WM and sync mails with more than 1 server?
I use mail-push for corporate mails, but would like of course to sync also my private mail2web - account.
what's the latest on this? sorry to revive such an old topic.
As far as I know, you'd have to use an alternative client to sync with multiple servers/
What if I want my handheld to sync to one exchange server just for email and another for contacts, calendar, and tasks?
At this time ActiveSync only supports 1 server.
mail from one exchange server, calendar/contacts from another...
Thanks to zim2323 on ppcgeeks:

Thought I would share it as i've been trying to figure out how sync my corporate email & calendar via one activesync server (company) and google contacts via another (the google server). So now I have both personal email (gmail IMAP) and work email (Exchange) and my personal contacts imported into the native contacts list.
Hope someone else finds this useful.
BTW, I also set HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ActiveSync\EnableNonLocalCrossPollination to "1" instead of "0".
And now???
No news about multiple accounts setup?
As gmail is now provideing push access this becomes more than frustrating to be limited to one push server!!!!!!
You're too lazy MS!
Activesync does support multiple servers if you are not syncing the same items with both.
For example:
I sync my calendar and contacts with google sync and sync just my email with the company I work for.
You just have to go into the pocket outlook and create a new account as if you were creating a pop3 or imap account and then select Exchange Server. You however can NOT sync contacts or email or anything with both.

Hi all
I have a personal smartphone (WM 6.5) I use mainly for private things. But I am allowed to use it for business purposes as well and I can connect to my business exchange server.
Now the question is how to do it the correct way.
At home, I sync with my Outlook using Activesync.
For business, I can connect straight to exchange or I can use IMAP.
I don't want to sync contacts, appointments and tasks to the main database of my smartphone. I just want to have another account for my business e-mails as I have if I add an additonal POP or IMAP account.
Is it possible to have an additional account on my smartphone that sycs directly with exchange but doesn't interfere with my private account? If so, how do I activate it?
Thank you for your ideas!
zanthos
In activesync you can "add server" to configure the exchange server of your work.
the only problem is that with activesync you can only sync 1 email account. so either the one for your work or the one for home.
best is to set up active sync for the account where you also sync contacts, task, calendar,...
the other one you can add an email account. there you can schedule the frequency of send/receive.
+1 for adding your work account as an IMAP email account from the Messaging application.
Emails, contacts, calendar, tasks are stored in a specific file (pim.vol).
Your WM device can only use one pim.vol (at a time).
Activesync, by default, will sync only with one Exchange server source (tasks, contacts, calendar, email, ...).
But, you still can synchronize a Windows Mobile 6 device with multiple Exchange mailboxes. In order to do so, you will need to edit some reg keys...
Microsoft introduced this as "non local cross pollination" (HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ActiveSync\EnableNonLocalCrossPollination)
It will allow you to synchronize your device with more than one Exchange server or ActiveSync source (office, home, ...).
For more info, you can refer to http://www.bitshift.ch/eng/support/kbase/000003.asp
Hope it helps.
Hi, I have used standard Outlook contacts synchronization through Windows Mobile Device Center on my WM 6.5. However, as this is not working with WP7 and I don't have activated version of WP in order to synchronize through live, is there any other way to get my contacts into WP7? Thanks a lot.
Hi,
For contacts and calendar sync I use hotmail account.
First I installed small app called Connector. After Outlook restart you will be prompted to configure Hotmail account. After it is finished you will see in Outlook new tree with your hotmail. When you add there contacts and calendar tasks they will be synchronized with hotmail.
On WP7 device you have to configure Hotmail Exchange server with the following way:
Server / URL: m.hotmail.com
User name: Enter full email address, for example: [email protected]
Domain: Leave this blank
SSL: Enable this
Mail, Contacts, Calendar: All can be enabled
For me it works!
Yes. Export from Outlook to a CSV file. Then import CSV in Gmail. Sync your phone with Gmail and you are done It's funny how good MS supports Google services. Even your Google calendar will sync fully
I've used Google Sync App to sync MS Outlook with Google (both Contacts and Calendar) and after that I've imported Calendar and Contacts by setting Google account on WP.
Does anyone know how to get my contacts out of HD2? I suppose there will be more WP7-ROMs coming and I don't want to synchronize again with GMail and delete all the contacts I'm not interested in at all - a simple tool for backup would be enough for me, thanks in advance (and if not simple tool, please just tell me what's the easiest way to achieve my goal).
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?
