Hi,
I am using Galaxy 3 I5801 with Android 2.1.
I browsed the internet and found confusing opinions about push email on my device.
All I want to know is:
1. Can I use Push email on my Galaxy 3 just like I use on a Blackberry
i.e. I pay a fixed charge for unlimited email receiving and sending to my service provider(airtel) on my device. However, this charge does not cover any Internet browsing (GPRS) charges.
2. Can I configure my corporate email account (not gmail or yahoo) on to my phone using push mail?
Hope my question is valid and understood.

yes you can, in the email app. i have my college email configured (had it on eclair and have it now on jpb)
there are also other apps that support corporate accounts, like k9. though i havent tried any
thanks for the reply
thanks for the reply mate.
what I understood out of this is that
1) I contact Airtel (my service provider) and ask them to activate push email on my connection and tell them the plan that I want.
2) configure my corporate email account on my galaxy 3 using K9 or like application
Is this the way to go?

Im not sure about step 1, since I am not in the same situation (I dont have a special service for email - I use "regular" internet). I do think that if you are already paying for it that you dont have to, but you there is no risk in contacting airtel, is there, so why not contact them?
I am , as well, facing issues configuring my corporate exchange email account on Samsung Galaxy 3 I5801.
1. I have a monthly GPRS plan (from Vodafone).
2. In order to configure the email account, I entered the email id and password,
3. I opt for the exchange account option.
4. I enter the domain\userid and password ( password is pre-populated)
5. I then enter the outlook web acess URL of my corporate exchange server and then it tries to get the incoming server settings. Doesn
t work - Get an error message " Unable to open connection to the server"
6. I then re try with the exchange server details ( as configured in my PC outlook client), it tries to get the incoming server settings. Doesn
t work - Get an error message " Unable to open connection to the server"
7. I have tried with all combinations of uppercase / lowercase - no luck at all.
8. Interestingly the google mail which gets auto-configured works well !!!
Can I get some help please ?

My experience:
in the email app:
1.add account
2.email addres:
[email protected]
Password:
********** (you are not getting that )
3. next-> exchange account ->
4. I then get:
Domain user name:
\borisivan.babic
Password:
**********
Exchange server:
student.fsr.ba
use secure check
accept all not checked.
5. I change
domain user name to
[email protected]
and
Exchange server to:
pod51007.outlook.com
and it works for me.
Dunno about your exact server setup, so you might have to put something else instead of pod51007.outlook.com however, if it is from microsoft try that.
Thanks mate !
Tried the "pod51..." server details too , unfortunately it doesn't work, I will have to check with the system admin team within my organization to get the server details.

I have an xda2 and was always able to collect my email from our Windows SBS2000 exchange server using VPN. Now we have upgraded to Windows SBS server 2003 we cannot get mail.
We are able to log onto the VPN.
We can even use the terminal services and see the server screen, but we cannot download mail.
If we try to get mail we get the following message:-
"Messages cannot be downloaded to your mobile device. Make sure you are connected and your e-mail account settings are correct . Then, try to download messages again"
The email settings we are using are the same as those that worked with SBS2000 server.
Can anyone help please
Thanks
Sam
From what you wrote I have gotten this...
1. Using VPN to connect to work network.
2. You can access resources on work network, proving the VPN is working.
Now, how are you connecting to get your mail? POP, Exchange Mobile???
I am going to assume you have a reason for not just using Exchange Mobile via Internet, such as don't want external access to Exchange box etc. etc.
sbs2003 mail access
I am using pop3 to access.
This was the way I accessed with SBS2000 with no problems.
The settings of my XDA2 are:
email address: [email protected]
user name: [email protected]l
password: mypassword
account type: pop3
incoming mail: servername
outgoing mail: servername
When I ask it to get mail GPRS is loaded and then VPN is loaded
then I get "connecting" then after a period I get the above error message.
If I leave the email prog and go to Terminal Service I connect and see my login and I can log in.
Sam
pop3 isnt enabled by default in sbs 2003, check settings in exchange admin and in services to make sure youve got the pop3 service running
sbs2003 mail access
Thanks for your help. Pop3 was not started, and WILL NOT START I do not know why. It says look in the Event viwer but no errors appear there.
I have started Imap and that has worked and I am receiving my mail. Thanks for your help.
Sam
PS in your first email you refer to Exchange mobile via the internet.
Isv this a big deal to setup and what are the advantages.
Again thanks for your help. If you are busy please do not bother to answer the PS. I am gewtting my mail so all is ok
Thanks again
Sam
I had it working pretty much straight away, OMA is another thing. Ultimately, we moved on from Exchange Mobile as it didn't offer real-time push capability (unless using SMS).
We now use Pylon Anywhere and couldn't be happier. Not only does it do everything you want, it only costs $654 US for five users. It works with Pocket PC, Palm and Symbian (amongst others) based devices.
Mail2Web Live is having a beta testing for their new exchange PushEmail for mobile phones account: http://services.mail2web.com/FreeServices/m2wLive/
I tried signing up but in the process it tell me "You're too late"
HAve you managed to sign up? If so how please?
>>>Actualy I managed to sign up using internet explorer. Firefox kept giving me the "You're too late " message.
It seems to work great. Give you Opinions on the services
i have an account but i signed up ablut a month ago.
i have an account but i signed up ablut a month ago.
If you spend too much time on the page filling out the form, you'll get the "too late" phrase. Just fill out the boxes quickly, type in the security card and you're off to the races. Push works flawlessly BTW.
work for me
works great, thanx!
Hi, where is the push email bit? I can only access teh standard web based email service.
Thanks

I can't find the beta push area either. Hmmm...
looked around...
only can see the web-based mail portion...
is the push e-mail a purchased add-on or something?
Since the device has push capability with the AKU 2.0 ROM, there is not a "push" section on the site. It is simply part of Exchange 2003 SP2. If you'll open active sync and hit the add server option, then you just type in mobile.exchange.mail2web.com. Fill in your user name, password and check the secure connection box and you'll be set to sync whatever info you want. Then go to the Comm Manager and push the button with the envelope on it. This is your push function. You'll see the GPRS connection start and any message sent to your account will immediately be pushed to your device.
Is there a way to change the reply-to address using this account? Also, is there any way to forward hotmail to mail2web? Thanks a lot!!!
MJB
I think you have to pay for that through Hotmail or other provider.

Sorry to appear thick, but do I need to set up any account on the XDA ??
I've registered with mail2web, set up the active sync and enabled the push mail icon on the phone
Sent a test email to the new mail2web account, but nothing pushed to the phone ??

Thanks, man. Working great now.

One drawback is that the push only works with data connection (GPRS) but not WIFI.....
I think they have some agreement with the service provider to make people spend more for GPRS.

I recently got this email from att yahoo:
Dear AT&T Yahoo! Member,
We're making some security improvements to your AT&T Yahoo! service. These changes will affect members who send or receive email from a desktop or mobile client program, such as Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Outlook Express, Eudora, Apple Mail, or Thunderbird.
To help us ensure the security of your email, you will need to change the settings on your desktop or mobile email client program.
you may take the following steps to change the settings on your desktop or mobile email client program:
Open your email client program.
Locate the email account settings for your particular client.
Change the POP server to pop.att.yahoo.com.
Change the SMTP server to smtp.att.yahoo.com.
Check the option labeled Use an encrypted connection (SSL) and change the SMTP port to 465.
Check the option labeled Use an encrypted connection (SSL) and change the POP3 port to 995.
Confirm the above settings then click OK.
I already tried my first comandment "Thou shalt not ask before search!" but alas I can't seem to find how to change ports on e-mail set up. I'm running wm6 but I don't know if wm5 had this abbilty as I didn't need it then. Any help would be great!
So, mabey I should have posted under wm6 & titled the post photon question. At the very least somebody would reply to flame me or something. lol
I had the same problem. Turned out to be the operator. They do not offer full Internet services, only WAP and unencrypted e-mail (i.e. no SSL). The problem sorted itself out after switching to another operator . . .
Add a colon then (port #, no spaces) after each in/Out server. That is how I have it set up with my 8525/ wm5
Thanks, I'll give that a shot. If not I guess I can open a hot mail account and forward email till att fixes the auto set up in August (per the "help" desk)
Can anyone or has anyone successfully set up and sync'd to a pop3 acct with their HD yet???
I use the same settings as on my desktop computer and get a message in outlook
"Outlook cannot be downloaded to your mobile device. Make sure you are connected and that your email settings are correct. Then, try to download messages again".
This cannot be, I am connected VIA wifi, I can browse the Internet ( using Opera ) and made sure the password was correct ( pullin' out the Stylus )
Any SOlutions ???
You do know pop3 messages are not left on the server after you downloaded them on your desktop, don't you? So unless you have checked the option to leave a copy on the server in your e-mail client you cannot download messages again.
For a more conenient use you should get an imap mail server. With imap the messages are server based, so whatever you do with the messages in your mail client (mark them as read, delete them) will happen to them on your mail server. This way you can have the same messages on every device you use to view them (desktop, phone, laptop).
Thats not IT

Yes, I am very much educated in the process of retrieving an email. but even if My Inbox was empty, I would get an empty INBOX, not an error message.
This is just a guess but how are your network choices set for Outlook, ie Work ISP etc?
Are you on contract or PAYG? I've never been able to use my phone's IMAP or POP3 client, regardless of model, due to the way that PAYG WAP works...
unless 'syncing' with pop three is different from what I think, I have accessed my pop3 account without hassle on my xda2i. (not bought the HD just yet )
I've used it with IOL and GMAIL wthout too much hassle on PAYG vodafone UK gprs.
This is my config :
I am on T-Mobile WNW - Free Internet HSDPA, ( I have unlocked the content restrictions to view all websites )
I have the following pop3 Settings:
Email : [email protected]
Your Name : Name Here
Account Display Name ( Greyed out ) : Name Here
Incoming Mail Server : [email protected]
typeop3
User Name : [email protected]
pwd : ********
Save Password : Checked
Outgoing SMTP ( Requires Auth & Use same usr name and PWD )
Advanced:
--------------
Network Connnection : T-Mobile Internet
AutoMatic Receive : 2hrs
Message Type : HTML
This is the total config, It is exactly the same as my outlook on windows XP machine, which can sync. I am however unable to on my phone.
I am asking if anyone who has a HTC Touch HD has successfully setup a pop3 yet ????
Hi,
I has a similar problem and I am on T-Mobile,
I unchecked the proxy option in Setting / Connections / Proxy Settings and it seems to work now
Tom
In network connections you have T-mobile as the internet access network?
He stated that he is using WiFi, the internet connection setting should not be relevant. The proxy setting mentioned by tombradshaw above may be problem.
I'm having the same exact problem, using the internet connection, did anyone find a solution for this pls?

The solution is already posted as well on other threads.
Turn off the proxy server option and it'll work.
No that didn't make it for me
The asnwer is very simple
your setting:
Email : [email protected]
should be:
Email : example (without the rest the account knows this from the POP and SMTP )
This should make your email to work!
Has anyone come up with a solution for this yet? I am trying to connect to a pop3 e-mail account belonging to a privately owned domain and have everything set up in the same way to the original poster, except I am connecting via my provider's (Orange UK) data tariff.
My Internet connection does not have a proxy specified, I can connect to a hotmail account without issue, and I know all of the details are correct as I have just set them up fresh on a different computer.
Any suggestions not already mentioned will be appreciated as I have read through the entire thread and none of the suggestions so far have led to me being able to connect.
The message I receive is:
Messages cannot be downloaded to your mobile device. Make sure you are connected and that your e-mail account settings are correct. Then, try to download messages again.

Is there really no one out there who knows how to solve this? I really don't want to be stuck using hotmail when I am travelling half way around the world
Hello,
I also have the same problem:
While my first pop email account works fine, the second (pop.gmx.de) doesn´t synchronize any more. For the first two weeks everything worked fine, but a couple of days ago, the second mail accoutn stopped working.
Of course I checked the logon data sevral times, re-entered the complete data as a new account, soft-reseted my Touch HD, etc.
I also checked the same POP mail account at the same time from my notebook without any problems - so it cannot be a server problem.
Strange: When I you the web interface from GMX it tells me that there have been several unsuccessful logon attemtps to my account.
So it seems as if the Touch HD scrumbles the POP password, that I re-entered unnumbered times.
Any ideas or solutions to this?
Greetings,

Hello,
I have an HTC Ozone. Purchased about 2 months ago. I have been unable to send email through a company mail server since I have got the phone. I can log on and download my messages with no problem. When attempting to send mail I connect to the server but my phone sends no authentication information and I get a message bounced back saying no relay access allowed. I have tried the microsoft fix but my phone would not install it. I am currently using the most current 3VO 6.5 rom, I have also tried the official rom. With all three roms I have been unable to send mail. I have also tried multiple email clients.
I have tried to send mail through our server over wifi with outlook mobile and profimail. Same resault error 504 relay acces denied. I know for a fact our server supports relay access with authentication, I have no problems sending mail with my laptop using my verizion air card.
As i noted earlier I have had this problem from day 1 with stock 6.1 rom, with the official 6.5 rom and with the 3VO rom.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Brian B.
Ok more testing. Tried same account information with my wife's phone same resault. I was thinking verizon was blocking port 25, cause I have tried other outgoing servers. Our IT guy says logs show phone connecting but not sending the login information. This baffles me. As anyone with an ozone had these problems. I have searched all over everything I find says use an alternate smtp server but this doesn't work either. This phone is really making me angry.
Of course, you are using your phone operator SMTP ?
Do you have the same probleme with GMAIL and IMAP protocol ?

What do you mean? I'm sure I have a T-Mob mail account, but I don't use it. I use my Internet provider's SMTP email. I cannot get my folders on my phone, "deletes" don't get sent from my phone, and every once in a while I cannot send email.
Not all pop server work well with pocket outlook. For instance, I cannot get my gmail mails synced correctly using the pop protocole, I need to activate IMAP (that may solve your sent mail issue).
As far as other accounts go, in order to be able to send mails, I need to use my mobile operator SMTP (and username / login), i.e smtp.orange.fr. (still keeping my e-mail provider's pop account, though).
Is you problem permanent (you never manage to send any e-mail) or odd (sometimes it will, sometimes it won't) ?

The sending problem is intermittent, but the folders issue and the deletes issue are permanent. Plus, if I read and/or delete an email from my phone and do not read it on my email server it gets re-sent to my phone as unread mail.
Btw, the incoming server is a POP server, the outgoing server is SMTP.
All right. Although I do not have a precise idea of what your problem is, I would suggest the following:
- Call you provider (T-mobile if I understood well) and ask them what is their smtp server address, and what is your login / password, and try to use this config to send mail.
- Try to switch one of you webmail from pop to imap and to sync your mails using the imap protocol.
Another solution would be transfering all you mails to a live mail account, as these of course are well integrated in WinMo.
