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.

Hi,
I am using HTC HD2. I can't send and receive email via outlook. I can receive email to my yahoo, gmail and hotmail accounts. But I can't receive and send via outlook. My email address on outlook are nameatmydomaindotcom but all use gmail servers. I have canceled email sync when synchronising, then chose again to refresh the settings, it made worse.
I would like to send email, receive email via outlook and also I would like to choose email I want send from via outlook. I could send email before canceling email sync. But it was going only from default account.
Can anyone help me please? Thanks.
As far as im aware you cant even edit the outlook accoutn settings, which is annoying as this used to work for me on older phones.
I have to send/receive via individually setup accounts, and then re-receive them to outlook on my PC and sync then over.
I have about 4 differen temail accounts, so this is the only way it works for me.
Thanks for reply. Sorry but, I am not good at using technology. Would you please tell me step by step? And at the end of this, will I be able to send receive via outlook on my phone? Or I will need to sync always. Thanks
no, as far as i'm aware you cant add an account for outlook on the phone, you will still have to sync

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But I also use outlook on my pc. Does this affect my outlook on pc to divert outlook emails to gmail? If it is just for phone, it is okay. Otherwise it will be confusing for me.
correct they both a using same settings.
Thanks.
I have tried to do it. But on the screen of my phone, "active sync" screen, i cant see any "edit server settings". there are just "sync" and "menu" on the bottom. and everything in "menu" is closed, i can't choose any of them. What shall i do now?
Hello- new to android, coming from a hd2
here is my set up:
I have a .mac account for my personal account.
I have gmail only for google voice.
I also am linked to facebook.
I use the phone mostly for work with ms exchange. I dont like the interface that samsung/2.1 offers so I am testing touchdown. So far so good.
issues/questions
I have both Touchdown and the android exchange set up so I can compare the differences. Not sure if this is recommended or not? also not sure if I should disable one or not??
1) contacts- when I am using dialer to call someone it - goes to the work fax # as default not the cell or even office #. How do I change the order for all contacts at once? I can do it individually but have 400 contacts. It doesnt give me an option to see all the #'s to chose from like in windows. Does this have something to do with the way it synced with ms exchange server's contacts?
Very annoying! any work arounds? any better way to quickly call or return a call? I typically use dialer and start dialing the persons name.
2) personal email- when I set up my .mac account it made a folder called personal email on my homescreen (great!) i mistakenly dragged it to the trash. Now when I add the email program to the Homescreen, when I open it gives mes 2 options. I want to get back my own personal email folder- any options?
3) I only use gmail to read my voicemails using google voice. Is there a way I can sync my ms exchange contacts (phone contacts) to the gmail cloud so I have them in multiple places?
Thanks in advance!

3. Export your contacts from Outlook (into CSV) and import them into GMAIL (Google has instructions on how to do it)
I've been trying to figure out how to add custom ringtones to certain contacts and no matter what I do, I haven't been able to find the option. Then I looked at one of my two contacts synced to my Google account, and there was the option. So it would seem for some reason, "corporate" contacts synced with my Exchange server can't be assigned indivdual ringtones. Does anyone happen to know why, and if there's any way to make it work?
If in the settings i go under ACCOUNTS & SYNC I can see I have two accounts for my gmail:
one named CORPORATE with a square symbol: this is used for pushmail settings and the options to sync calendar and contacts are not selected
one named GOOGLE with a "g" symbol: this has no pushmail settings but only options to sync calendar, contacts and picassa and they are all selected (but I have unselected picassa)
In practice I have a CORPORATE account for email and a GMAIL account for calendar and contacts, which is fine, but every time I try to add a contact it asks me if I want to add it to the CORPORATE or to the GMAIL account, which is annoying... Is there any way to set GOOGLE account as a default for contacts (like for email where if you have more than one account you can set one as default)
Please note that in case of calendar entries there is no prompt of which account to use
What if I remove the GOOGLE account and I use only the CORPORATE account for emails, contacts and calendar? Do I lose any feature?
