got it working mate. thanks
I have followed these instructions carefully, setting up the "work connection" as instructed. This works to give me internet access - good.
But it doesn't give me email access over GPRS. If I try to use email I get the "cannot connect with the current connection settings" error message.
Does email access expects to use "my ISP" instead of "work connection"? Does anyone have a solution to this?
Julian
PS Agile Messenger also fails to work with these GPRS settings.
A nice man at O2 data support just answered my question fully:
The "work connection" settings should be wap.o2.co.uk, o2wap/password with proxy settings 193.113.200.195 (WAP port 9201).
The "my ISP" settings should be mobile.o2.co.uk, o2web/password, and DNS 192.113.200.200/192.113.200.201.
Now I've set both these up correctly GPRS access now works as I would hope - both email and web access nice and fast.
The man also confirmed that wifi takes precedence over GPRS - if you have a wifi connection that will be used, with a GPRS connection being made only if a wifi one is not in place.
Julian happy again
The HTC email setup seems to be missing the Advanced email settings button for configuring SSL for IMAP4/POP email etc. How can I set require SSL on the HD2??
Also is there a way to get to the older Win mobile settings basic GUI interface under HTC sense?
Many thanks,
Richard.
when setting up a new email account, its there on the outgoing (SMTP) mail server page.
near the bottom, click "Advanced server settings"
if you want to access it after you have setup the account, click on the e-mail icon in the start menu and then you see your list of email accounts, click menu, options, then click the account and click "Edit the account setup" and "next" through to the outgoing server page again.
Ah I was looking in the wrong place. Found it now, thanks for that!
Cheers,
Richard.
Hello XDA members,
I've been trying really hard to get this setup work but it's just not happening
I keep getting error like "authentication methods are not supported by server"
Here are the settings.
http://email.vsnl.in/WebSMSAlert/popmailsettings.htm
I tried to follow these settings but when it comes to outgoing server settings, the port number is given 2525 which doubts me is the wrong one as I get the error "unable to open connection to server"
Before you start:
* Please ensure that you know your user name (this is usually the full email address) and password.

Hi all,
Has anyone managed to get their hotmail to sync so that when you delete mail on the DHD it deletes it from your hotmail inbox? I've checked the box in the settings but the mail stays in the inbox (on web hotmail, not the DHD).
i've only got a hotmail and gmail account - the gmail works fine, btw - but it would be interesting to see if this is just my DHD/hotmail account, or if its happened to others with hotmail or any other mail service.
anyone?
I've almost the same problem. If I delete mail on my phone then it will also be deleted on hotmail but if I mark mail as read on my phone, on hotmail it is still unread
Try this:
-go to mail,
-hit menu,
-tap more,
-then tap settings,
-then acc. settings,
-leave your email as it is (so tap on next)
Protocol: POP
Email: Your email
User name: Your email
Password: Your pass
POP-server: pop3.live.com
Security type (or something similar): SSL
Serverport: 995
Hit Next and check this:
User name: Your email
Password: Your password
SMTP-server: SMTP.live.com
Security type (or something similar): TLS
Serverport: 25
Hit next and check for any difference
Temp. solution..

its really quite frustrating to go through a few days of handling mail on my DHD only to have to repeat it all again in my inbox.
I tried it out just now and it works for me. Did you check both "Sync deleted items from server" and "Delete mail on server" boxes?

of course. this was the first thing i checked.
just download the original mail program. You can find the apk with google. HTC mail has a lot of exchange problems with hotmail(sadly, the standard mail program is a bit basic).
Same problem here too. I gave up trying to set up hotmail, so I just added it as an account in my gmail. Now my hotmail gets forwarded to my gmail, and I don't have to worry about checking two different apps. I'm actually glad I had the problem. Much easier now to keep track of emails.
no luck on Anoniem's solution,
hope something can help with this issue,
*sigh*

I'd go with that too. I have an account on university mail, another gmail and one company account, the most sensible thing to do is to get everything delivered to one place i.e gmail. A lot less effort that way
Change the days to sync to 1 day when using activesync and hotmail.
App: Improved Email solved the problem
Hi guys, I have been using one app from marketplace called "Improved Email" (free) and it does good job in syncing hotmail account.
Hotmail does not support imap, so if you use pop3, when any email is deleted or marked as read/unread on you mobile, the change won't be reflected to the hotmail account accessed through webpage.
However, hotmail provides a solution by using exchange/activesync instead of imap. I have tried several apps including android/htc default one, "Improved Email" works the best but unfortunately it only display text based email instead of HTML version (this may be the restriction on hotmail exchange server).
How-To:
Start "Improved Email" app, put in your email address and password, select "MANUAL Setup" -> "Exchange".
Domain\Username: email address
Server: m.hotmail.com
check "User secure connection(SSL)"
then "Next"
Then, you should see "Account options" page where the checking frequency and others could be set.
"Next"
Then, define colour for this account
Last, give a name to this account.
Done!!
Now you should be able to see all your account folders, to delete emails, to make it read/unread, while the webpage one keeps updating.

You can try my solution, using "improved email" app. It works greatly and I just realise it is also the default email app on Nexus s.

Has anyone had success trying to set up their outlook account with the stock email app ? How did you do it
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
By outlook do you mean exchange account? If so you need to open outlook and edit accounts. Copy settings into the mail account setup fields on N4. Its pretty straight forward.

By outlook i mean the "new" service microsoft rolled out as the sucessor of hotmail, I dont know if outlook its exchange, it should be since microsoft made it right? or maybe imap?
In the email app, enter your username/password, select exchange, and then on your comp log into your outlook account, then on the top right corner select options, then select 'see all options.'
Once you're there select 'Settings for POP, IMAP, and SMTP access' a little window should pop up.
Back on the phone. What you do is enter your email again where it says username and password.
On the server blank field copy the server under 'pop setting' in the little window.
Then hit next and follow the directions after.
Shouldn't even need to do that. Once you type in your email address it should auto populate just like if you do an @live.com or @Hotmail.com. That's the autodiscover service on an Exchange server which is usually at https://autodiscover.outlook.com (or.live.com or whatever).
I fill out with my outlook address , then select exchange, and on the next screen it auto populates but when i press next it says username or password incorrect, and i'm sure its the right password :/

Don't manually click manual setup, just click next and the email client will run off to the autodiscovery server and get the proper settings.
I haven't tested it with Outlook.com emails but with Live.com it works just fine.
if you do manual it should be:
\[email protected]
password
the server can be a few different ones but generally m.hotmail.com
SSL should be enabled.
I put my username / password then exchange server, then it goes:
domain/user
server
(here I added at the beginning "mail.")

just do add account, fill in your account and password then click next. don't check manual.. it'll sort itself out. I did that just now with my hotmail account and it found the settings itself and just went ahead and set it up. don't choose exchange or corporate. just choose new account.

Maybe it works automatically for hotmail but not for outlook. trust me im not choosing manual settings i just fill out my mail and password and press continue and then it asks me which type of account it is :crying:

There's no "options" just the settings icon and then when i press it, all that resembles see all options is "more mail settings" and inside "more mail settings" there's no "'Settings for POP, IMAP, and SMTP access'" option
hmm that is weird. I just found this page: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-GB/windows/outlook-to-go#1TC=t1 and under android it has either.. get the hotmail app or visit the website. that doesn't seem to suggest there are some settings does it? weird. I hope it is supported natively as that sucks if not.
not a heck of a lot of help from me on this sorry, but good luck.. sure there must be a work around
I set it up the following way by manual:
Domain\Username: \[email protected]
Password: obvious
Server: col-m.hotmail.com
Use secure connection (SSL): Mark
Accept all SSL certificates: Not marked
Client certificate: None
Port: 443
For an MSN account which I used with my own domain (not live.com, hotmail.com or outlook.com email)
Here I have as server: bay-m.hotmail.com
Hope it helps

You could also try changing the server adress to "snt-m.hotmail.com". Worked for me.

Thanks, this worked for me also.
Update: It worked on my Motorola razr xt910, running Android 4.0.4, but the setup isn't working on my Cube U9GT2 tablet running Android 4.1.1. I tried most everything else suggested here on the Cube, and nothing has worked so far. I don't know how significant the ICS vs JB is, but the problem also could be related to the obscure Renegade rom I am running on the Cube tablet.
These also work fine with an outlook.com address...

Why has no one answered the question directly yet? As from what I've played with, I can't figure how to make it the default mail app on your phone. It would be nice to be able to use one, easy mail service for ALL your emails rather than the stock email service, gmail, ymail app, and be limited in those apps. I know what you're saying, but it doesn't sound like anyone else in the comment thread does.
