Exchange 2010 Push Mail W/ Outlook Anywhere,Alias's, POP Forwarding, NOW w/ POP3/IMAP

I just need everyone to re-send me all their information in THE BELOW FORMAT:
First Name:
Last Name or Initial:
E-Mail address requested: [email protected]ztek.com
Alias: [email protected]
Password:
For those of you from now on, I will require a $5 monthly donation to setup an account (this will be done through a subscription and paypal). I feel this is a fair amount for whoever wishes to donate. I will keep the old link for those that wish to donate above what I already ask for.
It will include an alias and Outlook anywhere access (use Outlook with this account). With each account you can have an alias setup so that your recipents see your email address as anything you like! Also, for an extra $5 per account I can automatically forward your pop3 or IMAP e-mail to your new exchange account.
Go to http://zteknology.com/paypal.html to make your donation. Make sure to use the subscription link.
The Outlook Web Address is now https://mail.getztek.com/owa/.
So if you like the service and feel that you can contribute, please send paypal payments to [email protected]. Anything helps, even if it is just $1.
If you do not know what Exchange 2010 is or offers, please google it before making any decisions about e-mailing me.
Also, please give me at least 24 hours to set up your accounts once I receive your information. Usually it will be far less than 24 hours. Thanks.
MOST IMPORTANT: do NOT e-mail me directly. All communications about Exchange 2010 must go through PM. If I receive an e-mail I will simply ignore it. This is done to simplify everything. When I have to spend extra time to figure out if you e-mailed me or PMed me, it just slows me down and e-mail's are easier to lose. Thanks for your cooperation.

Here's the setup info...I feel it's pretty thorough, but if anyone wants to add anything just let me know.
Setup on Outlook 2003/2007:
If you have an existing Outlook profile, follow steps 1-4..otherwise skip to the next section. These steps are for XP based machine. If you have Vista it will be similar but not exactly the same.
1. In Outlook, go to File --> Import and Export --> Export to a file --> Personal Folder File (.pst) --> click on the root folder in this window and choose “select subfolders” --> Click Next --> click browse and choose a location and file name for your .pst file. I suggest the desktop. --> Click Finish --> Click OK.
2. Let Outlook finish exporting your data. This make take anywhere from 1 minute to 30-45 minutes depending on how much data you have (e-mail’s, contacts, calendar).
3. On your XP Machine, go to Start, Control Panel.
a. Make sure your Control Panel is set to Classic View (Upper left hand corner of the window). If it says “switch to Category view” then you are good, but if it says “switch to classic view” then you should click it.
4. Double click on the Mail Icon within the Control Panel.
a. Click on “Show Profiles”
b. You should see your profiles here, most people will have one one and it will be called “Outlook.” THERE IS NO NEED TO REMOVE THIS!
c. Click “Add” --> Type in a Profile name (e.g. Exchange 2007/10) --> Then proceed to step 1 below.
-----
1. If using Outlook 2007/2010, At the prompt where you choose manual. If using 2003, ignore this part and proceed to the next step.
a. add a email account and choose Microsoft Exchange.
2. Microsoft Exchange Server: server.getztek.com or ztekserver.ztek.me if using Exchange 2010.
3. Username: Full Name given at Signup.
4. then hit More Settings

7. then type in mail.getztek.com for the URL or mail.ztek.me if using Exchange 2010.
8. make sure SSL is checked
9. click on fast and slow networks, and choose basic authentication
10. Click “OK” twice
11. Then click Check Name
12. And the username/password box will pop open
13. Type in GETZTEK/User or ZTEK/User if using Exchange 2010. (this user is your e-mail address. For Example: your email address is [email protected], this is johndoe)
14. Type in Password
15. Server Name and User Name should now be underlined.
16. Congratulations! You are finished!

Can I be the first to say thankyou to Denial for this service! Just re setting up all my stuff, but from what I've seen of the new OWA it looks really good!
Thanks!
EDIT: Can you please turn off enforcing security policies on mobile devices (eg PDA's). I don't want to need to have a password when I switch on my phone everytime.

Exchange all set up
I got exchange up and running smoothly. It seems to be working awesome... Will post more over the next few days as I use it!!! Thank you so much!

I turned off the security policy. Just soft-reset your device and then turn the lock off. Isn't the new OWA awesome!?!?

Thanks for that! No more fumbling around trying to remember what I put as a password. And yeah, the new OWA seems really good! I'm actually thinking about ditching Outlook later on and just using the web interface.

I plan on the service being around for a long time seeing as how I use it myself. At some point I might have to close registrations if I run out of accounts I can give out., but the service should keep on tickin'.

Trying to setup my mailbox again after the upgrade, but it seems the exchange server doesn't support connections using entourage 2004 (mac outlook) anymore?

i´m really tempted to sign up have you got somekind of email aggregation so i can fetch pop3 mails from other accounts?

This is a great service and is far better than the previous Exchange version I was using.

I just forward one of my pop3 e-mail accounts to my exchange account. I'm not sure if this is what you are asking. There is no way for the Exchange server to automatically download pop3 mails from, say gmail. You have to forward those e-mail's.

Actually, there are third party connectors you can use, such as POPcon, to pull POP3 and IMAP email. Apparently you can also use Fetchmail to accomplish the same thing. I'm attempting to set that up right now for myself.

Hotmail not working

on my hd using opera i go onto www.hotmail.com. i sign in as usual. i see that i have some new e-mail. so i go into inbox and when i click on a email, it doesnt open. there's no vibrating telling me that i have clicked it. it used to work before but now it dosnt. i have soft reset the phone a couple of times but no result. i know that i can check my email through the email tab but i dnt want to. any solution guys

Same here...wouldn't mind knowing if there's a solution.

tries mobile.live.com

That's the page I'm in. Message in inbox can be highlighted but it will not open for me...
EDIT: meant to add this works fine for IE just not in Opera.

same problem here. I get logged on but can't click on the inbox. Does someone know the solution for Opera? (except IE).

i have the same annoying problem!
but then again, will stick back to IE for hotmails..

same here. I can't even log on or register my details through the touch flo tab. is there an apple rights type thing going on here?

Have you guys tried to open in another tab??
Grtz,
Degake

ive tried setting hotmail up throught tf3d and it allows the username and password, then it says settings found, please click next to continue, but as i do, it take me to mobile.live.com rather than the next step??
anyone know whats going wrong?

I had the same problem, so I did a back up, and a hard reset, to wipe everything, and when I came to set up my email hotmail account, it works just fine now.. I get the messages as they arrive..

so after the reset you were able to continue the registration and settings without it directing you to windows live page?
unless you enter an alternative email provider it won't let me enter settings manually

Yes. First I had the emails downloading to my phone, and showing in the inbox.. Then for some reason, I messed it up and tried to re set up an account, and every time I was being directed online to Windows live page..
I did a hard reset, not a soft reset.. It tells you how to do it on the HTC support page. That wipes everything off the phone, so make sure you back up any information or programs you want.
After I reset the phone , I tried my hotmail account again, and it works fine..

ok thanks very much. been reluctant to do the hard reset as its taken forever to customize and tweak to my liking. and that's just the shortcut menus.
here goes...

Hope it works for you like it did me..
and I kinda enjoyed tweaking mine and getting it set up again.
Good luck. let me know how it goes.

ive only just done a hard reset because i could install Framework 3.5, it there any other way to setup hotmail again, registry edit maybe?
also how do you get them delivered straight to your phone, a friend of mine who also has a HD says you have to manually sync.

did you guys know that you can set up hotmail into your mail tab now yeah?
to set it up, go to the mail tab > Menu > Accounts > New Account
when asked to enter your email address, enter your hotmail address, but with an error after the "@" sign. for example, if my email addy was "[email protected]", i would enter it as "[email protected]" (notice there is no "l" in "hotmail.com"). Enter your hotmail log-in password here as well.
Insert your name as you would like to appear on outgoing messages, and an account display name to show for your own navigation (mines is simply called "Hotmail", since i only use one hotmail account).
For the incoming mail server: pop3.live.com
Account type POP3
your username will be your hotmail email address (the correct version this time), and your normal password, as you would enter on the hotmail login page.
For outgoing mail: smtp.live.com
tweak other/advanced settings to your liking (and data plan - orange UK data plans suck).
Once you've set your account up, click on Start (top left corner) > Messaging > [your hotmail account] > Edit Account Setup. Now correct your emaill address that you originally inserted incorrectly, and continue pressing next till you get to the end.
Now your hotmail should be working fine.. no need to use opera at all

hi. I followed this advice from another thread which I can't find now.
but after I do all that and I go to Menu > Send Receive, there is an error in syncing and have to check my connection settings.
where am I going wrong?
in the process of backing up atm..

if your trying to do send/receive through TF3d, you can try doing send/receive through windows itself (i.e. go to start > messaging > hotmail > menu > send/receive)
see if that works. if it works fine, then automatic updates should work fine as well. I also get an error sometimes while trying to update via TF3D (only on hotmail), but it works fine if i do an update through windows.

phew! thanks for all suggestions so far. managed to set up using wifi. works perfectly.
problem is.. it only works with wifi.
when I attempt to send/receive through my t mobile connection it says I have to check my service provider etc. which I'll probably do tomoz

Gmail settings on HD

This is my 4 th HTC, always used a gmail account.
Used the same setting as my diamond on the HD, but still asking for a username when trying to connect.
problem in orginal rom, flashed dutty's, still my gmail account wont work.
What am i missing here

I have a gmail account and the HD set this up automatically.
Looking at the account settings I have:
Incoming server: imap.gmail.com
Account type: IMAP4
Outgoing server: smtp.gmail.com
Any use to you?

Yep have the same, very strange. Wont work, keep asking for a another username/ww

Sorry, can't help any more - try deleting the account and setting it up again (Sorry!)

k, thx for your help.
still searching, did a hard reset, made a new account, still no go.

My gmail account works normally. I have the spanish original rom.
I'll try to write all my settings. Maybe the name of the fields are different in english, but I think will be easy to understand.
- email: [email protected]
- Name: Any. Account name: any.
- Incoming server: pop.gmail.com Account type: imap4 (yes, the server is pop, and the account type is imap. Don't ask me, the HD configured these settings automatically).
- User name: [email protected] Pass: yours
- outgoing server: smtp.gmail.com. CHECK "outgoing server requires authentication" and "same username and password for sent".
- Advanced server configuration: UNCHECK SSL connection in both incoming and outgoing mail. Select appropiate connection.
- The remaining configuration don't matter.
Hope it helps.
Regards.
Nacho.

tried >> chanced incoming to pop, and unchecked the ssl. That where the only 2 thing different to my old setting. Stil asking for a different username/ww

No! Gmail requires SSL. Follow the instructions here
https://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=78886
It will ask for your password also if you mistyped anything in the settings, check that.

Did this already several times, again did it on the diamond. Working great.
The HD with the same as above in link gmail wont work.
cant be the gmailaccount settings, they are right, must be something else.
btw im happy with the fast responce you are all giving thx

Wierd,
My HD just asked for username and set everything up automatically for me.
I think that was on the original ROM and I have used SPB Backup to restore everything after flashing to Dutty's ROMS.

Gmail issue
Also on my touch hd ( i change rom very frequently and so i set my gmail account different times)
i use EVERYTIME the same auto-settings, some times it makes the synch of the emails and sometimes it "seems" to work but nothing happens
the only way to solve the issue i found is to re-set the account, or to change rom

Gmail Password Weirdness
I have all the settings put in correctly.. what is happening is that Im inputting my gmail password in the account settings, then continuing saving everything, click on "send/recieve" and get the "cannot connect" error.
I go back and check my settings and my password has changed! I know this because my password length is ******* but when I go back to check the settings its always *********************
For some reason its just NOT saving the password as it should and its driving me bonkers!
Could someone please enlighten me as to what to do?

Back door email setup:

just wondering if there is a way to backdoor setup an email account. as some of you may know, the G1 has some kind of pop up that comes up when trying to setup emails.
something like SPAMHAUS or something. anyone ever get this?
anyway to backdoor or turn off the filter for that, or something?

Manual email setup (was: back door email setup)
To bypass the account setup wizard in android mail, and configure the account manually, you can use the 'Manual Setup' button.
To get there click 'Next' when you are prompted 'Welcome to email setup .... email accounts in two steps'.
On the next screen, the 'Manual setup' button appears at the bottom left of the screen. The 'Manual setup' button is disabled until you enter an email address and password.

I always use the manual way anyway. That's not what I'm asking for. Because the wizard still does silly things for certain accounts. So I was trying to see if there is a way to bypass all of that and do it thru root.

Is anyone else here having trouble setting up there yahoo account on the new jf 1.5 adp? It keeps coming up as wrong user and account. I don't have yahoo plus, but this worked just fine on jf rc33. If anyone knows what the put in the manual set up that would be cool if its even possible.

I remember reading some sort of disclaimer when you first set up the yahoo account on RC33 that you can only access your yahoo free account if you are a Tmobile customer... maybe since the 1.5 is currently ADP, it won't let you into the free yahoo account unless you have the tmobile version. Just a thought.

Mine used to act this way when I had the standard T-Mobile RC33 OTA. Ever since rooting, I've been able to access my Yahoo email just fine, even though i DON'T have Yahoo Plus.

what does this mean? it only happens after i hit continue for the Outgoing mail server:
SETUP COULD NOT FINISH
cannot connect to server.

anyone have any idea what this is?

Hi.
I have a adress with the ending @googlemail.com. Active Sync didn't work for me when I only used my username. Therefore I would suggest you try [email protected] as username. Usually there is no need to give a domain. For further instructions have look at the google homepage for 'googlesync'. Unfortunately I'm not allowed to post any links.

Thaks, it helped...
