Is there any way to get push hotmail, i already have activesync for my work exchange mail? will the mytouch 4g support two activesync servers?
Actually my exchange doesnt seem to pushing at all. When I check mail it will download.

Did you set the frequency to push ? You need to scroll up above the list of times to set it to push.
Yes i double checked that one.
got push hotmail working perfectly by using, Vanilla 2.2 mail .apk.
settings
email: [email protected]
server address: m.hotmail.com
SSL enabled
accept all SSL certificates enabled
username: [email protected]
password: password
Domain: \[email protected]
still cant get exchange working properly even with touch down, must be our server.
I have tried these settings, but i get an error everytime I get to the last screen to selet a name for my account and the process never completes.
Has anyone been successful in getting Hotmail (Activesync) configured on their myTouch ? I already have another exchange activesync account setup for work email.
On the G2 & N1 I was able to setup multiple Activesync accounts ?
Is that broken on the HTC mail client ?
Do I need another mail client for it to work?
Thanks

How'd you get vanilla 2.2 mail app on your mytouch 4G? I'd like to get Hotmail exchange active sync working on the MT4G.
i found it somewhere on a forum, it installed as an apk. it might have been of a desire rom cant remember. but it made hotmail work
Working well. Thanks!
No HTML which is weird since POP3 with the default HTC mail app supports it.
Please post questions in the Q&A section.

Hello,
i just got my Hero and I'm now trying to setup my POP email account using HTC mail. I'm using the same settings which i had on my HTC Diamond but for some stupid reason i cannot setup the outgoing SMTP server on the Hero.
No matter what I do, i always get a
"550 Administrative prohibition" from the outgoing mail server.
However, i can receive email using the same account information, just sending does not work
Any hints?
have you turned authentication on for the outgoing server?
that error suggests you haven't and it is blocking you because of it!

Yes, i have. Actually, when i turn it off i do not get any error messages during account setup but then again i cannot send any mail in the HTC mail app
The above error occurs when the HTC mail setup prog tries to verfiy the settings with the smtp server.
Do you use a different username for your smtp server? That flatout refuses to work for me in HTC Mail, I would suggest you try K-9 a much better email app.

No, it's the same username (=email address).
ok, next one to try, i know on my server, the username is the email address bbut with a + instead of the @. Usually i don;t have to use it and the @ sign works, but some programs i have to use the +
could that be it?
Nope, sorry. That didn't do the trick as well.
Meanwhile i read on some other forums that it depends on the mail server, that's why some work and some won't. As it seems the HTC Mail app is sending a "script" (whatever) during account setup that is treated as malicious by the server and ignored therefore.
The last email I received on my Hero via HTC Email app is at 8.46am.
If I sync by wifi or Tmobile 2g I dont get any more emails.
The Gmail app does, my ipod Touch does. I have deleted the email account and recreated but no change.
Any ideas.
Just checked my yahoo account with HTC Mail and this works fine.
Has Google got issues??? I have all the correct imap settings
imap.gmail.com SSL port 993
smtp.gmail.com SSL port 465
I configured a gmail account in HTC Mail and it has been working fine. Only had to enter my accountname (mail address) and password. And HTC Mail configured everything else. Maybe you shouldn't configure your Gmail account manually?
Works fine for me. Both accounts I have set up are refreshed properly. I'd try deleting the account and setting it up again to see if this does the trick.
I have already deleted account.
Can you tell me if the Google email auto account settings by HTC are POP or IMAP?
If its pop3, then I wont be able to view the folders.
What I dont understand is this email has been working for nearly 2 weeks no issues.
Baffled.
Just deleted any did the HTC auto setup. Gmail setup as IMAP will same settings as I did manually, but still the newer messages from today are not showing.
This is really p*ssing me off.
Just come off the phone from HTC UK Technical support. I was speaking to a lovely lady who was very helpful. It took 30 mins but we solved it.
In a nutshell from my laptop I deleted some emails from my inbox , 5 in total out of 13 and suddenly the HTC Mail app was taking ages to sync and then voila.
It appears as if the sync status on the app got corrupted. But all working.
Happy now, and I must say a big thank you to HTC support
Hah, this is weird. I deleted and re-created my both accounts (IMAP) to check if I could reproduce your issue, but they were still syncing fine for me.
Glad you got it all sorted out.

Would be excellent as mine has stopped pushing consistently recently and only works when it feels like. Does this now work for you? I have a .co.uk address and run rooted 2.1 stock.
Sent from my HTC Hero using XDA App
I have not test it on Android 2.1 but it is working with .co.uk addresses
I let Gmail get my hotmail, and label it as such, and even reply from Gmail as from my Hotmail account.
Does the Hotmail ActiveSync also sync calendar events?
Yep and contacts
Hello All! Forever I've wanted my mail combined in the stock app, but Yahoo! IMAP wouldn't work over wi-fi without using K9, etc. I tried again and have success thanks to mtwebster's git commit: http://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_packages_apps_Email/commits/froyo
If you want your Yahoo! mail in the stock email (vanilla email client, not htc) app, add your IMAP account manually as usual and use the following incoming and outgoing servers:
Incoming server: imap.next.mail.yahoo.com
Outgoing server: smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com
I've tested it and it works great for me! I now have a combined mailbox with my Exchange (work) mail and my yahoo mail and can access both via Wi-Fi or 3G!
Enjoy
i dont know about the "next" command in ur first string..but ive always used :
INCOMING : imap.mail.yahoo.com
OUTGOING : smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com
im sure ur way works..but theres an alternative if the first way doesnt work for anyone for some odd reason

Hey SoCal. I saw your other post about ordering your Dinc. I think you'll love it! Welcome!
As for the servers, the ones you listed are the ones I had and they will NOT work via Wi-Fi (except if using K9 mail and I hate that ugly @ss icon and wanted one mail client and one inbox for all of my mail) but work fine over 3G. That's why I had to find the others. Give it a test and you won't even be able to add your account to the stock client while connected to a wireless access point. It will keep telling you "The username or password are not correct". When I'm at home or at work, I'm always connected to wireless, so not being able to get my mail is unacceptable.
Thanks for the reply, though!
awesome catch then eh? kudos on that!
and thanks for the welcome. being on an HDPI device is gonna be a bit of a learning curve as far as development goes..but im sure with a bit of the forum help ill be able to find my way just fine.
not working for me...

This is the regular plain-jane HTC mail app? I tried using these server names to set up my regular yahoo (not y-plus) account...left SSL and default ports unchanged. I had to switch to 3G-only even to get past the incoming server page in manual setup. I got the account set up, but with WiFi active I get the same old errormsg.
Is yours still working? I wonder what we did differently.

No, that was on the vanilla email client when I was using Ruby. I tried with the htc client and got the same issue that you did. I might have to restore my ruby backup and see if it still works and what the ssl settings are.
EDIT: I just verified that this works on the vanilla email client, via wifi, with security set to none but won't work on the htc client.

I've an HTC Hero with the 2.1 not rooted.
I tryed to use the mail from HTC to configure hotmail with push but doesn't work.
I also tried k-9 mail with the same result.
There is a way to make hotmail working with push?.
no solution available for this problem?
I couldn't get it to work reliably either. Worked at first but then stopped and couldn't rely on it. My solution was to send all hotmail to gmail and use it from there, to be honest once I got used to it I wish I'd done it sooner : )

I use hotmail on my 2.2 hero and it works fine. You have to set it up as an exchange activesync account.
Username: your email ad
Password: your password
Server: m.hotmail.com
Make sure the 'accept all ssl certificates' is checked and use secure ssl.
Thats what works for me!

It doesn't seem to work on the HTC Mail client for some reason.
What you need to do is download and install the Stock Google Mail client for 2.1 and set up your Push Hotmail on there and use that as appose to the HTC one. I've got it working on mine and it's full Push mail
You can get the Stock Mail client from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=668043
You'll need to:
- go into Manual Setup
- ActiveSync
- Username: full email address
- Password: you password
- Server: m.hotmail.com
- 'Use Secure Connection (SSL)' is ticked
- 'Accept all SSL certificates' leave it unticked.
This is a good application, configured and work on Push mail. But I uninstalled it because I already have two clients, one "Google Mail " and the other HTC default client. Now I'm using 3 accounts, hotmail,gmail and my office mail on the default client. And it is connected to the mail widget on home screen.
Is it possible to remove default / pre installed Google Mail client. I no more need it. It's just an overhead.
Thanks
