Microsoft Direct Push

Has anyone been able to get direct push working on WM6? I am looking for a way to get email faster than every 15 mins. I cant use BB Connect because it does not support attachments (jpg, pdf, mp3). I need something that does.
Any suggestions?

Yeah, works great. Not much of an update from WM5 though, unless you're using Exchange 2007 (which I'm not).

Works fine for me also..

Yup working here as well from my Exchange - 2003 so no HTML mail over DP yet.

is there a link to download (I looked in the wiki)? Can someone send me the CAB.
Does it support all file types?

There's nothing to download as directpush is built in to wm5 roms (post AKU2) and WM6 roms.
BUT you either need to have an exchange server 2003 sp2 account (or exchange 2007 !) or you can rent one. There's free ones but they're not that great. If you want a really good hosted solution - try 4smartphone.com

I keep getting sync errors with this version. It allows me to set it up, but direct push does not work. I set it up for 5 minutes and it syncs fine. When I plug it into the laptop, it gives error messages that it cannot find the server, but it syncs. This is strange.

Works great for me as well ! Have no problems at all !

I will check it out. But it seems like the computer has to always be on. Thanks for the recommendation.

Direct Push not working in WM6 LVSW
Direct Push is not working for me either - WM6 LVSW Pro (Cingular) - Exchange 2003 sp2
All of my Exchange information syncs perfectly, then I get an error message:
"Your current sync schedule requires a cellular data connection. Please setup a cellular data connection as described in online Help or change the sync schedule."
Support Code: 0x85020013
The only way I can get emails while using "as items arrive" setting is to force send/receive. I have been using Direct Push on Exchange 2003 sp2 for almost a year with no problems, and there is no way I can go back to every 5 minutes.
I noticed some people are having the same problem on WMXL 2.0 Even using the Fit4cat solution mentioned in that post did not work.
I did setup My ISP settings using this Cingular CAB file . Could that have something to do with the problem?

I'm using the same CAB file and syncing with Exchange Sp2 and it works fine with WM6 LVSW...

@ DenaiL
After using that CAB, did you have to go in and manually enter username/password into the Cingular GPRS connection?
I still had to go in and enter this information.

Nope, it just worked...as is.

Hard Reset > Redownloaded and reinstalled the CAB from your sig. Now Direct Push is working. Thank you!
For some reason the first time I downloaded and installed the cab it did not setup my connection properly.
Now I can go to sleep.

Does this direc push use alot of data. I am on a 500mb monthly plan (crap i know) but HSDPA is so expensive in AU (telstra, nextg).

Depending on the network, directpush itself uses between 5 and 15mb a month - just for the heartbeat and occasional syncs. If you set your email to sync only first 5kb and no big attachments, you should be able to keep the actualy email traffic down.
I have Orange's unlimited (with a 1gb FUP) and use only 100 or so mb each month all in.

Messaging and Security Feature Pack
Question: I need to get the Messaging and Security Feature Pack
My understanding this can be integrated into the ROM. Is this correct? Any chance of getting this to work with WM6?
Push is working but encrypted mail does not synch and addon does not install with message Feature and Security Pack not installed. Any Ideas?
Thanks

Can only receive emails, can't send

I used the proxy settings at the HTC Wiki to setup my Dash with my T-Zones internet. Internet works fine. I'm having a problem with sending mail. I can receive mail fine. When I go to send I get this message:
"The following errors occurred while sending and receiving messages:
the messages cannot be sent . Be certain you have network coverage and that your account information is correct and then try again."
I have a strong signal, get all my emails, can browse the internet.This problem just started happening. WM6 Beta worked fine. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

I'm having a similar problem. I just tried to setup windows live mail, and it only works over wifi. I get that network coverage error every time I try and sync mail over edge.
I didn't use live mail frequently with the beta, but it definitely worked over edge when I did use it....Seems like something is up.

T-Zones service doesn't included email, sounds like they're starting to close up the loophole that allowed you to use it with the T-Zones plan in the past? I think you'll find some other things not working as well, like Messenger?

Incoming v. Outgoing Servers
Your incoming and outgoing servers need to be different. If you can use your home wifi, but not edge to send, that means that you have your isp's info in the settings.
I originally made an IMAP account that could receive anywhere, but could only send when I was using a wifi network for which iIknew the outgoing server (ie. my home wifi). I used the "set up my email" option that tmobile offers, it works pretty well, since it configures the phone to send and receive. I pay for the 5.99 T-Zones plan, and this function works for me. Just make sure you log into your my.tmobile.com account and turn the text message alerts off (they send you, and charge you for, a text message every time you receive a new email).

They're definitely doing something. I can now send and receive from my aol account, but my .mac account keeps asking for my username and password. I can't login.

In the past in the settings of a pop account you can go into email setup and choose "Network Connection: Wap", in wm6 final there is no choice for wap. I think that is what is causing the problems

I noticed this as well, both on my Dash and my Vox. My Vox can use T-Zones to get on the internet with the proxy settings. Email had been working fine since I got it on Friday. The strange thing is is I can send email and receive with my aol accounts fine now (this morning they weren't working, only being able to receive).
My. mac account on my Dash now only is getting incoming mail, I can't send out. Earlier this morning I couldn't even log in or get incoming mail.
T-Mobile is definitely doing something because my aol accounts on both phones send and receive fine, now (hope it lasts)
Gmail is also working now, sending and receiving messages.
Hopefully they are just updating their servers since the official release is coming Friday, at least I hope this is what's going on.

as of 9pm EST even connecting Via WiFi I can't send out mail using my .mac account, only receive.
I get the error "the message cannot be sent. Be ceratin that you have network coveraage and that your account information is correct and then try again."
I can' t understand why I'm getting this using WiFi
Gmail, aol still work fine on both T-Mobile EDGE and WiFi.

Uh-oh... looks like I might be going back to WM5.

Easy fix.
Use the proxy, except for everywhere it says use WAP Network under GPRS and Proxy settings, use Work.
Then make sure your IE uses work and your email uses work.

If you can get your IE working but not your email, here is your fix.
for each email account, go to tools>options>select your account> keep going through your email setup until you get to advance server settings.
click on advance server settings, and under network connection, select the same connection that you use for IE.. (should be anything except The Internet)
select it, then hit done (but you aren't done)
it should take you to the previous screen, then hit next, until you get to finish.
You have to make sure you hit finish to save your settings.

Usually if you can't send from your device you might not have set smpt relay on on your webmail account or enabled pop/smpt in general. I had that with a secure server account that I use for buisness and once I had set the settings to turn smpt relay on I had no problems - except it usually works better if i input the password manually. Gmail I have never had problems with after enabling pop.

"error synchronizing" when trying to sync IMAP e-mail

Hi, I'm running the Kavana ROM, it works fine except I can't send or receive IMAP e-mail through USB.
I'm on T-Mobile prepaid, no EDGE or GPRS for me; I just want to check my e-mail over Wi-Fi or through USB. Internet Explorer works fine so data is getting through. But when I set my e-mail it says 'error synchronzing' straight away.
any ideas...? I delete all the connections (under settings, connections, GPRS) so as to try and not confuse the device. IE still working but no e-mail.
this is really frustrating and I've spent a long time looking for a solution, without success. Can anyone help...?
thanks!
Richard

You would have to use Outlook to grab your email then when you plug in your device it will sync the email from Outlook to your device.

Thanks for the reply. It actually started to work by itself...I think all I did was enable and then disable the advanced USB functionality somewhere in the options.
No need to use Outlook, I just pick up mail directly from my server. I hate Outlook and now use Thunderbird on my PC. This, in combination with https://www.nuevasync.com/ means I am finally free from having to sync with Windows!

Pls, HELP

Push And Pull Hotmail Account......

Ive been trying for ages to try and set up push and pull Email on my device.
Ive been trying for weeks now with no luck.
Is it even possible to get push and pull email with my Hotmail account and my HTC HD?

Hello
Yes its possible and for free .
Try this service here.
http://community.seven.com/main.php
It works very well and its free.
Enjoy!

Hi There!!
Thanks so much for that!! Ive downloaded it and its all working brilliantly.
Exactly what i was looking for......
Ive only got one question-
to recieve Emails to my WM device, is my device constantly roaming to recieve them, or is my Email only triggered and sent to my device by the SMS?
In other words, is it costing me (constant) roaming time to keep this app running?

hotmail accounts
Hi, im not sure if this will help but use the following method for your mail accounts. Hope it helps. Goto mail and settings then new accounts.
Where example1 etc is written enter your actual email address.
when it asks for your email enter it as follows. [email protected]. your actual password. follow the settings and do not use the net to get settings. put in pop3.live.com for the pop3 screen. and smtp.live.com. on the smtp screen. check the box to allow smtp. and advanced settings. Modify as necessary. Continue and complete other features as you wish.
Once its completed go to settings then the account u just setup. change the last part of ur email from live.com to either hotmail.co.uk/hotmail.com/live.com or live.co.uk.
In the settings for the email you can change from the connection type from Wifi to 3gprs or anything.
If you have mutiple accounts one the first screen of the new account setup enter your password, but for the email add enter:
[email protected]2
[email protected]3
[email protected]4
follow setup as previously.
Notice the numbers 2, 3, 4 on the end this can be changed later if you have several accounts with a provider.
took me a lot of reading up2 do on this mostly thanks to guys here at xda and ppc geeks.
Hope this helps.

That sounds cool, ill give it a try!
but again would it be best to have an unlimited data plan as the phone is constantly roaming for the emails, or is the phone only triggered if i get an email??

unlimited would be better but in the settings when u go into the settings menu for that specific email acc. you can change from "the internet" which would be a wifi connection. or your network internet. mines is tmobile so i can swap when at home an out. but its completely up2u.

Thankyou!
Thats great help. Brilliant.

ur welcome.

Perfect, thanks for this.
And I'm from the Isle of Man so no charges for the texts. God bless tax cuts for companies

Thanks so much Bayhas! My work E-mail is a live.com and my personal is a hotmail account, I couldn't figure out how to get them both on my phone. This tip worked perfectly

It's awesome isn't it

i can't seem to find the option that lets me use only wi-fi (ie in the settings menu you mention above).
i get the options "messages from past xxx days"
and truncate mesages at xxxx kb
am i looking in the wrong menu?

I've been using Seven email client for quite sometime and it works great however I've been recently testing several leo based rom's which have manila 2.5 and now Seven no longer works I've tried new and old version of seven none of them work as I'm dependent on the seven push email I've reverted to manila 2.1 based roms!
anyone have any suggestions or alternative to seven that works well with these newer leo based roms?

Touch Pro 2 and gmail

I have had my TP2 for a few days now and i love it, except for the fact that I cannot send or receive email from my gmail account
I can access the internet fine, and use the youtube app fine, but whenever i try to send an email or hit send/receive i get this error message
"CANNOT CONNECT WITH CURRENT CONNECTIONS SETTINGS. TO CHANGE YOUR SETTINGS, TAP SETTINGS"
When i set up the email the only things i was required to supply were my email address and password....so i am assuming the problem lies with the way my handset is trying to access the gmail account, ie. trying to use wifi or something? (i dont have wifi, so i will only be using the "unlimited" interent provided with my t-mobile UK tariff)
has anyone else had this problem or do they know how to get around it as i have finally got myself a decent handset where i can (allegedly!) check my email on the move, but yet i somehow cant get it working?!!
Ihave tried both hard and soft resets to get this sorted but it just wont work and i feel like pulling my hair out!
n

I know it's not much consolation but it just worked for me...
I have a SIM free TP2 and UK T-Mobile Web'n'Walk.
Incoming mail server is imap.gmail.com
Account type is IMAP4
Username is my full gmail username
Outgoing mail server is smtp.gmail.com
outgoing server requires authentication is ticked
All this was set via automatic configuration.
Hope this helps,
Richard

This is what i have done to recieve and send Gmail trueout the standard email client on my Pro II.
First of all you have to enable imap at your gmail account which you can find under settings.
Then on your phone do the following settings.
- make an new account in your email client
- fill in your gmail adress
- fill in your name
- fill at incomming mail "imap.gmail" and account type "imap"
- fill in your account name (gmail adress) and password
- fill at outgoing mail server smtp.gmail.com
and those two checkboxes must be checked
- auto recieve and send is up to you
hope this will help you

ther's a known bug in windows mobile poutlook...
sometimes the autoconf for gmail doesn't work...(i had the same issue on my omnia)
you only need to enter the account details by hand..
to do that, in the first screen where your address is asked, enter [email protected]
leave it without the final m.
after that fill in manually all the account details, then when finished edit the account and put that m in the domain...
that should work...at least in my omnia was the only way to get gmail working...

I used this guide en it works perfectly

hi, thanks or all the replies, most appreciated.
however, i have now established that i can get my gmail account working - but only over wifi!?!? when the wireless router is turned off i get the same message as before, so there must be a setting or something that is telling my TP2 to look for a wireless connection when performing a send/receive, rather than using the "internet" (if thats the right term) that is included in my contract..AAAARGH...
i have had a look but cannot find any settings for this so i must be going mad?
can anyone shed any light on this for me before i go mad??!!

Disable proxyserver, don't have the place where you can find this. I have a dutch rom

I have a gmail imap connection on my HTC Touch that was working great but has failed to connect for the past two hours or so.

I found that to change from Download 30 Days to 7 days and it worked fine.
Oddly I returned my TP2, and switched back to my VarioV, same problem (had worked fine until then). New TP2 is now here, so will start with 7 days and try expanding to 30 days later.

does anyone know how to do this? i cannot find this option anywhere?

is there any way i can see how my tp2 is trying to receive data from my gmail account, ie. if it is trying to use internet or wifi?!?
also, does anyone have any details for the settings that their tp2 (on t-mobile UK) is using when trying to retrieve email (not by wifi)??!
i'm also assuming that t-mobile wont be able to help me as i got my phone/contract via a third party and t-mobile themselves dont seem to stock the phone themselves....

I had this problem, it drove me nuts until I worked out what it was, if i was already connected it would work but it would not establish its own new connection.
To fix it go into the email settings for the account, then select:
Edit Account Setup
Next
Next
Next
Next (Outgoing (SMTP) mail server screen)
Click the “Advanced Server Settings” Link
In the “Network connections” it defaults to “The Internet” but if you have gone through the “Connection Setup Wizard” when you first installed your SIM it renames the connection, in my case to “T-Mobile Internet”.
Change “Network Connections” to the correct one i.e. “T-Mobile Internet”
hey presto, you can now get your emails
hope this helps everyone

if the connection has a proxy in the setup, than you can use that connection only if selected like above...
if you leave "The internet" the proxy settings are ignored...you have to select the exact connection..but this will prevent the gmail to connect with wifi
