Anybody else using Gmail and the build-in mail client? It works... ok. But because the mail client only has a 'send/receive' button (and not two separate buttons), trying to send an email results in receiving ALL email since the last pop3 check. Frustrating since gmail won't recognize accessing the web mail interface as a 'check'.
Anybody got some tips?
Hi,
i want to use it but where can i get it?
thanks in advance..
well just enable pop3 in the gmail settings, open your htc universal, go to messages > new account > fill in the settings (auto config) and you're set.
If you are talking about something like google notify, that I don't know - I don't think it exists.
Or you can use Gmail through Pocket Internet Explorer on the device, it works moderately well now. They detect that you have a small screen device and present a cut down version of the "full" interface.

You're absolutely right, but what bothers me is that Opera 85 mobile could handle the 'proper' gmail. However it won't, because gmail detects the user agent string which can't be changed from Opera. Terribly frustrating, because it would work really nice alongside the 'fit to screen' opera feature.
I use the personalised homepage of Google (http://google.com/ig) and this will show me if I have any new Gmails along with several other RSS feeds and interesting snippets.
When I click the Gmail header I scroll down to the bottom of the page and there is a link to Basic HTML which makes life a whole lot easier.
The /ig page trick kinda works (but google once again pushes that ugly 'mobile' version rather than the 'normal' one. What would be perfect is a gmail notify -like client for PPC.
I've downloaded last version of Lotus Easy Sync Pro (4.2.3), but it doesn't support WM5 and i seems to me, that IBM stopped development of further versions
Does anybody know alternative products, which can synchronize data between WM5 device and Lotus Notes, particularly phonebook and diary.
Try this http://www.ianywhere.com/products/xtndconnect_pc.html
I would encourage you to try mnotes at www.commontime.com. I've used it for a couple of years with great success.
I've used Intellisync to link my Wizard with Lotus Notes 5.

Hello,
Do you know where I could find this intellisynch version plse ?
Thx.
Commontime mNotes works the best IMO.
I did try...
I did try, but for an unknown reason, the mnotes server does not start. I have the status : "mNotes Server: Error".
Would you have an idea ?
What is more, in the Communications Tab, the method is TCP/IP on the port 603. I cannot change it knowing the pocket pc (rw6828) is connected through active sync USB. I am lost. Thanks for your help.
I use Doublelook by Companionlink Software, it syncs the notes address book & calendar with MS Outlook. Changes made in either are reflected in the other, then outlook is synced with the MDA. Works well but only at your desk, it's not like a Blackberry where all this is wireless, in real time, that's a whole other kettle of fish.
I think commontime's mnotes is by far the best solution that I've worked with. Provided me with the fastest and most robust sync with lotus notes.
Lotus Easy Sync Pro 4.2.4 Beta support WM5.0 now
http://www.zenithcomp.co.th/application/discuss.nsf/85255e6f0052055e85255d7f005ed8bc/ea6e387bf63f7645472571c700345806/$FILE/Setup.rar
Thanks. I installed it and I am told when I start synchronizing that:
"Unable to connect to device. Verify that Activesync is running"
Useless to say that Activesync is running and that the device is seen as connected. Is there something more to do (on activesynch or easysyncpro) ?
Thx.
Can someone give me a link where I can download commontime plse, with a serial nbr ? I did from the commontime web site and it does not work. I am running Lotus Notes R5.0.12 and windows mobile 5 on my rw6828 ?
Thanks for your help?
While we're on the topic of Lotus Notes, does anyone know if it would cause harm or headaches to synchronise with notes at work (I don't know why we ever got rid of outlook! ) then, synchronise with Outlook at home?
I'd like to get my work appointments synchronised, and contacts (I have loads of friends email addresses at work but not at home).
Would be very handy - but I'm too scared it'll all go horribly wrong! :lol:
The only issue I had was making sure all the private items were tagged private. I didn't initially check for this and after the sync all my misc stuff was posted on my calendar for all to see, took some time deleting it all. But I do this now all the time & sync Notes & Outlook via Doublelook to my laptop at work and then to the home PC. No real problems other than our brain dead IS department won't let us acess the blackberry server to do it in real time but that's another kettle of fish.
Any help on my post plse ?
Would appreciate a link ;-)
Thanks !
Have anyof of you run into the problem where Outlook refuses to open because of this error " Unable to open your default e-mail folders. Unexpected error has occured. MAPI was unable to load the infoemation service nwnsp.dll Be sure the service is currently installed and configured."
I've tried most of the fixes that made sense that came up on google.
I use mnotes and it works perfect except for the email sysnc from Lotus. Thanks in advance for any help.

[Added 30Euro Bounty]
Hello Everyone,
I seem to have run into a shortcoming of both WinMo 6.1 and 6.5.
Apparently (I have searched the forums for this quite extensively) there is no way to have a notification (sound or vibration) to notify the reception inform of an email that has been pushed from the exchange server directly to a subfolder of the inbox, based on a server side rule (i.e. having all the emails sent from my office go directly to my inbox subfolder that is labeled Work Emails).
I am sure plenty of people have exchange accounts with subfolders and would like to see this issue resolved. Moreover, I cannot understand how this feature is present on email clients for Symbian devices but is not supported in Microsoft's own Pocket Outlook (RoadSync for Symbian has this feature).
I am not a programmer, but it would appear bizarre that there is no way to associate a notification to an email, simply because it does not appear in the inbox but in a subfolder of the inbox. From a logical point of view, all that is required is to exted the notifications that apply to new emails in the inbox to ALL new emails both in inbox AND subfolders.
I am willing to pay 30Euros to whomever develops a hack/registry tweak/cab...whatever, that can:
1) make WinMo notify an email that has been pushed to a inbox subfolder;
2) integrate the solution in TF
So far the only solution that have been suggested are:
1) FlexMail 4, that is not compatible with TF or SPB shell
2) http://www.blackmonlabs.com/faq.html. However even this solution is not what I am looking for.
3) CheckMail 2.0 (http://www.soft32.com/download_234983.html) is an app that does exactly what I am looking for, I am now testing if it works with TF3d
Please help,
[I honestly cannot understand how this issue has not been addressed yet]
did you try second today or similar software that allows wmToday and touchflo to run at the same time?
it may work with http://www.blackmonlabs.com/faq.html.
Let me see if I understand this correctly.
I install second today, and for that today screen I install blackmonlab application; therefore, on my second today screen I would get subfolder email notifications.
However, if I understand correctly, I would still have no form of notification when in TF3D today screen. I would still have to switch to my second today screen and verify whether I have received new emails or not.
I don't know....this appears to be so strange. I cannot believe all the Microsoft Exchange users have not in some way addressed this.
Let's see if the addition of a small bounty attracts some good willed programmers.
I am sure there must be a number of people who could use this fix.

yeah dude give it a try before dismissing the idea. it might work well for you
also, whats the name of the app that adds today screen as a tab in touchflo. it might work better than second today or mtoday
I don't know.
In fairness, I am new to WinMO as I recently moved from a nokia communicator E90; I also have some Blackberry experience, since my GF has one.
Honestly, I just love WinMO so far. However, the whole messaging system is pretty weak compared to other platforms and I am rather unsatisfied.
I have not tried SPB mobile shell 3.0, as of yet.
I have mainly used TF Rhodium version and Titanium.
I really like TF, however, I would get rid of both the SMS and Email tabs and replace them with one unique tab that incorporates a fast smooth messaging client. For someone who receives 30/40 SMS per day and about 80 emails, the TF is just very inefficient.
If there was a way to integrate a POWERFUL messaging client in either TF or SPB I would definitely try it. By integrating I mean a Messaging client that:
1) notifies me about SMS, Email (and subfolder emails) vibrating/ringing;
2) Visually modifies my TF3DHome/TitaniumToday/SPB now/ screen showing an envelope and the number of unread messages;
3) provides a pop-up preview (not necessary);
4) one finger tap from Home/today/spb now/ straight to the new Message (no scrolling/clicking to the tab, then clicking on the envelope).
Perhaps there is something like this and I am unaware of it?
hi, does the check mail 2.0 supported TOUCH FLO3D? i went to the description link it says only displays on Today screen.
CheckMail 2.0 does not support touchflo or any other Graphic shell.
Ok someone just messaged me with a solution which appears to be rather interesting.
Using BBconnect and BIS service from phone carrier or alternatively BBconnect and BES (for those who work in a company that runs a BES server).
Apparently BB connect can be integrated in TF3d without issues.
Can someone confirm perhaps?
Did you ever find a good solution to this problem? I too am dumbfounded that this is not natively supported, even in WM 6.5 which I'm running on my Fuze (Energy Rom 8/1 build).
Come on people, there has to be a solution!!!
that feature has never been supported by pocket outlook, nor the PC version of Outlook. ALthough the PC version finally gave the user the ability to create reminders based upon new email into a folder or email specifics. Likewise, PC version of Outlook will not give reminders on flagged items that are not in the inbox and you used to have to use an Outlook plugin to get to do that.

I can definitely do this in the PC version of outlook with the built-in Desktop Alerts. It seems like it would be such a simple and useful piece of functionality to implement in WM. Anyone else heard of a good way to do this, especially in WM 6.5?
THe only solution I have found for this, that does not require a second today screen or closing down TF3D is a #rd party app called watch flag.
Here is the home page http://www.watchflag.com/
I used it with WM6.1, it did the job, I found the interface to be a bit clunky, and did not woirk entirely the way I wanted.
That is probably my fault becaue I could not get it to notify me on specific subfolders, I could only make it notify me on all subfolders.
In the programs defense it was over a year ago and has had revisions since then.
The other issues are the program is not free, but has a two week trial and while TF3D can be running , i think it just has regular on screen messages and does not integrate with TF3D message notifications.
Like i said I have not used it in a Year.
I've noticed that not has much been said on the Hero's exchange support in any of the reviews or user reports so I thought I'd let people know what it's like as, for me, this is a must have feature. I should say that I have not had an android phone before and so I have had no experience with Nitrodesk's exchange solution so I can't compare.
Well, I entered my exchange details during initial set-up and after my first attempt was unsuccessful (SSL needed and is off by default) it than worked. Asked me if I wanted to sync Mail, Calender and Contacts all of which I selected. After the rest of the setup had finished the phone told me I had a new e-mail arrive so I could tell it was working straight away.
Mail is fantastic. Downloads everything fine, has at least as many options as WM for choosing which messages to download. E-mails look great on the display and html e-mails show up fine.
Contacts are great, they all appear straight away in the people and the phone application. All the Facebook and Flikr integration works perfectly. Only niggle is that you can't group contacts by company which is something I used to do on WM.
Calender seems to work fine. Appointments showed up ok, including appointments sent by e-mail.
All in all, the exchange sync is way better than expected and in some ways better than WM. The integration seems very deep and integral to the OS rather than a bolt on feature.
I agree with you there Bud, just a shame that there is no task sync support yet - still looking
All was fine for me, but as soon as I've allowed it to connect my contacts to FB contacts, sync fails for conacts with a 'client/server conversion error' message.
I'm using exchange 2003, mail and calendar are syncing fine, and I too would love tasks to be added, along with a fix for contacts and I'm a happy hero user
Strange - I have had no issues with the Fb sync but i use Exchange 07
Just Exchange, or...
...also Outlook?
not tried to sync with outlook yet, whats the best app for that?
I would settle for an outlook connector that I could just set to sync contacts and tasks, as these two arent really changing so frequently I wouldnt mind having to 'plug in' to sync these.
I just use exchange so can't comment on outlook sync. Facebook linking worked fine for me but I also have exchange 2007 so can only assume it's a problem there. Not sure if the exchange functionality is all implemented by HTC or whether they've used part of Nitrodesk's Touchdown but I saw on the Nitrodesk website that they don't support exchange 2003 yet.

The only app is HTC sync which is included along with the hero's manual on the sd card supplied with your phonbe, word of warning i just installed htc sync on my vista pc and it caused windows explorer to continuously crash until i uninstalled it, not impressed
Tried to install the app ealier, drivers failed and the app wont work (win 7 32 bit)
Going to try the long way round for now - sync outlook contacts to my google account and keep the google contacts synced to my phone - would I end up with a duplicate of everyone then though?

I, like you (not I like you!), have synced up this way. I too cannot get HTC sync to work. I am sure Orange have bundled the wrong version.
So, I export Outlook to a file, then import contact file to google cal, then sync gcalendar to hero. Job done.
No duplicates, google calendar seems intelligent enough to recognise the dups
I would like to share my experience
Booted up.... would you like to set up exchange?
HELL YES!!!!
enter the details..... (internet accessible exchange server)
<entered>
What you wanna sync my boy?
EVERY GOD DAMN THING
oooooook here we go.......
<done.>
Sweet!
Thinking about an Adriod as my next phone, since I think WM is really falling behind everyone else! I use it mostly for work so a couple of questions if you don't mind....
No tasks syncing so far?
How does the calander work, are the views easy to see, day and week stuff?
Meeting requests work?
Can you flag email messages? This is a must for me and I hate that WM 6.5 can't even do it!
How do you find the keyboard replying to emails?
Can you open Word, Excel, PDF files?
Any other features it has for work that WM doesn't?
Thanks
Exchange
I'm having probs with exchange.
It will only sync my main inbox, not any of the subfolders I have, and will only sync via mobile network - fails on wifi ? ?
Then again can't get ANY web stuff on wifi ? ?
Word and excel fully creatable and editable with Docs to Go, and Open Office I think does let you read different docs though not sure which. Best PDF Reader seems to be RepliGo Reader which is good for books as well.
I'm only just getting to grips with Google Calendar but seems to have a great deal of flexibility for appts and stuff.
Widgets really just getting going, so I'm not sure of all those available...
Daisy - Magic owner, so Hero may be slightly different xx

I have reiceved my G2 touch and havn't been able to setup exchange sync over the air. It goes past first option i.e. to show me what i want to synch mail, contacts, calendar and than when I click on finish setup it fails with message unable to create account try later! Any idea what is going wrong. How can I fix it?
Sachin
Anyone have any experience with exchange sync where the server requires you to set a password/pincode for the phone?
Heard some people saying that this was not supported by the Hero. A pity if true, as I need this to work in order to be able to use the Hero as a work phone (in other words, if I am to buy a Hero).
The out of the box exchange support is really very good. It just needs the ability to authenticate via password or client certificate.
I much prefer it to WM, but only because its completely finger friendly.
Yes you can flag emails, and they show up under the flagged emails tab at the bottom.
I really really hope the update within 10 days or September will affect this thing? Need to be able to sync more than one folder at the time.

works for me on vista 64 with orange branded HTC Touch. I believe there is an update on the HTC website, not sure if that enables win7 support
I certainly didn't notice explorer crashing after I installed it, chances are it's another explorer extension interfering (either a media codec that is failing at showing thumbnails, or a right-click extension or similar)
Hi all,
Not sure if this is the right forum to post my issue.
I have setup my work email (Lotus Notes 8.5.3) using the Exchange option. The setup is successful and I can see all the folders (including custom created) that are part of my email. The issue is that all the folders (including inbox) does not show any emails. Message appears No messages from the past month and changing option to download all emails shows "No messages"
I can send email out successfully but the send folder on Windows Mail is empty. Contacts and Calendar do not sync as well.
My email gateway page shows following message:
WindowsMail: Offline and these sync requests from the server are pending: mail:add/update, calendar:add/update
I have no issues syncing my HTC (Android). Is this something that can be resolved by changing some config on my Surface 3 or do I need to take this up with out Lotus Notes Mail admin or Is Lotus Notes 8.5.3 is not supported?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Wow, didn't know lotus notes was still around hehe, you may wanna consider a slightly less ancient email client. (personally i was quite pleasantly surprised by how decent 'Mail' is in Win8, maybe try that)
If you like to stick to LN (or IN as i guess its called these days, for IBM Notes) then know this; the latest stable release is 9.0.1 FP3 from January the 21st this year, so you should prolly try install that.

Thanks for the advise, unfortunately the company I work @ uses pre-historic fossilized technology (9.0.1 is 100+ years in future for us ). I am having issues with 'Mail' app in Windows 8, my bad did not specify in the post.
Thanks again.
