Android :: An Exchange Mail Conundrum
Jun 23, 2010
I am trying to get my head around setting up email from Exchange 2003 SP2 in Android 2.1 (HTC Desire) but have some issues which point to lack of understanding (or faulty wetware). I wondered if anyone could help me out with this?
I can connect to our exchange server while I am in range of our internal WiFi hotspots. But as soon as I turn off WiFi or exit the building the connection fails. I am struggling to understand how this works when you are not near an internal WiFi spot. We use blackberry devices and they can get mail from anywhere in the world so how does the Android equivalent work?
There are a good many suggestions that you point your connection to whatever you use for OWA, but we do not expose our Exchange server to the outside world directly, but rather via a Juniper box. What I don't understand is that is the Blackberry users can connect using an internal BES server - so this has to work.

My IT got it to work anyway. Not sure how he did it, but it took awhile.
Anyone else get it to work?
The email interface kinda sucks, but it works without an app.

This was the most horrible thing ever on the Pre but luckily a simple patch disabled it. Now I got an EVO and 1and1.com pin lock is back. I can't stand this. How do I bypass it like I did with the Pre?

I have keep getting the error , "certificate domain name does not match outlook.com.
Outlook.com is my exchange server, i think. It always works when i enter it as the server with the default email app on android. I can send emails though. configuring exchange for k9 is such a pain!
Anyone know what this means?
Main reason I want to use k9 is so i can save attachements...so if anyone knows a better email app that supports exchange (not touchdown) or a way to download attachments with default email app.. that would be nice.

I have moved from the Motorola Droid to the HTC Incredible. I had no problem connecting my work e-mail to the Motorola Droid but when I try to connect it with the HTC Incredible it doesn't work. I am using all the same information as the Motorola, so I'm not sure what the issue is. Has anyone else experienced this issue with the Incredible?

Here's my issue: Came from a windows mobile phone. However, one area winmo is obviously good at is exchange support. Here's what I mean:
I regularly receive and forward large attachments (PDFS - usually 10 megs or so), and the winmo phone made it easy to do so when out of the office. I'd just hit forward and away it would go. The phone would tell the exchange server to forward the mail, and it was done. The phone never actually downloaded any attachments to forward, unless of course I wanted to download it for viewing.
I've found this phone instead of just telling the exchange server to forward the message actually has to download the attachment, then resend the attachment. This is stupidity in it's fullest when working with a 10 meg attachment. Instead of taking a split second to forward something it'll take minutes to download, then minutes to upload, and obviously shorten battery life considerably. So my question is - am I missing settings, or is the installed mail application not able to do so - and are there any android mail applications that will forward attachments off an exchange server without actually downloading the attachment first?

I have the option if I want to convert my main mail account to an Exchange account or keep it as an IMAP account. So far I have the phone setup with my IMAP and it's pretty decent, messages appear as unread if I've read them on another computer, I can switch to different folders I've setup, etc. The only thing is that it checks mail every 15 minutes (i could change it to 10 but the polling technique is still used). Is Exchange ActiveSync any better in Android or is it buggy? I'll switch if the push email really is instant and non buggy.

I just got the EVO i synched my mail, and everytime i get a new email, i am not kidding it takes almost one minute for the email to display. everything takes an insane amount of time in this program. everything else is speedy and fine but the mail program.
Gmail comes in and can be read quickly and easily but not the Activesync Exchange Mail.
Anyone else experience this same problem and if so is there a solution for this?
If the email is downloaded already how come it takes so long to open or reply to an email?
Anyway majority of time i press another button, everything freezes and then i get that non responding warning asking if i want to wait or force quit.

I am having trouble deleting the "trash" in the exchange e-mail account. Does anyone know how to do this other than checking each individual message and clicking on the delete? Is there a delete all type action?

I am waiting for my Aria to be delivered. Has anybody used the native exchange mail on 2.1? How does it perform? I heard a lot of good things about Touchdown for exchange. Can I get that with the 3rd party restrictions that ATT has on the android market? If so I remember reading about a work around but can't remember what it was.

I get my DINC tomorrow. YAY! Anyway, I am trying to figure out a few things before I get started with the setup.
I know that I can use the gmail app with my gmail account. I am already going to sync the calendar and contacts.
If I choose to use the HTC Mail app for my gmail (setup as exchange), do I need to set gmail (when logged in on the web interface) as IMAP? I know to use the m.google.com as the exchange server.

I know this is the Droid forum but it has a lot of activity and I'm using the Droid, so I figured I would ask here. I am trying to get K-9 Mail set up for MS Exchange. I got it set up with the built in Email client with no problem, but really like K-9 better. It always fails on the outgoing settings screen. Incoming sets up fine, but the outgoing fails no matter what I try. Does anyone have any tips or suggestions?

My company only allows mobile access to corporate e-mail through WIndows phone. As an Android advocate, i prefer my own mobile device.
My only two choices are to access through my Android Chrome browser or find a way to make my Jelly-bean Android mail app look like it is a Windows phone. ...or a 3rd part mail app that looks like a Windows/windows phone mail client
I prefer the mail client route as it keeps in sync with updates.

I have a problem getting the mail application for Exchange to work. I read through several threads and got to install Touchdown. Strange thing is that this app works fine and the mails from the Exchange server are sent perfectly to the HTC Desire. What is even more strange is that a colleague of mine has exactly the same Desire and is on the same Exchange server as I am and for him, the Mail application for Exchange works perfectly. I really want to use the standard mail application. I saw there is an option in Touchdown 'Fetch and trust certificate' which is not available in Mail for Exchange. I already tried to logon to the webmail via a browser but this did not seem to help.

I am currently roaming outside my home network in the UK and cannot get Exchange Server to automatically synch. I have read countless posts on this forum and elsewhere trying to self-help before posting, but despite this one appearing to be the same issue, I have been unable to fix it.
In essence when opening Menu > Settings > Accounts & Synch > Manage Accounts / Exchange Active Sync > Account Settings I see that the option for "Sync when roaming" is not only unticked but also greyed out so I cannot enable it.
How can I fix this, please?
Note that Menu > Settings > Wireless & networks > Mobile Networks > Data roaming is ticked and so is ... > Enable always-on mobile data.
I am currently on an Edge network and manual Exchange Synch works just fine but having automatic sync is more important right now that worrying about the roaming charge.

Is there a way to only set push e-mail for the Inbox folder? When I set up push e-mail for my Exchange server it wants to download the mail in all of my folders. That is over 2,000 messages.

I am unable to see exchange email more than a day old. I go to Menu>More>Settings>Send&Receive>Download Past Mail and I only see 1 day listed. No other options are available.I've already removed the account and added it back, but I still only have the option to download 1 day past mail.Anyone know how to change this so I can see more than 1 day? I have the personal data plan and I'm pointing to our companies OWA server. iPhone users of the same settings can see well past 1 day. Is there any way to correct this or is it a bug of the phone?

On my i*hone, Exchange Mail provided full HTML support. Gmail provides HTML support. Why does the built-in Email client not provide HTML?
I don't want to use Touchdown or something like it - is there an Email client I can use that can provide this? I am using Appriver for Exchange which I thought was 2007

Everyone I tried to download an attachment from my Exchange email account, it shows a little clock icon spinning, then after a few seconds it stops and gives back an error: "Alert: Network Error". I tried to change the setting to various settings (such as downloading size, attachment download location, etc.) to no avail. I was able to download the same attachment from my gmail account so this seems to be exchange server mail related.
I have a Sprint HTC Hero phone with Fresh 1.0 ROM loaded. I am not sure if this is Fresh related but I vaguely remembered that I was able to download attachment before but I am not sure.

I have my exchange mail setup and working on my Moto Droid. However when I set the synch time to auto (push) and then exit out, it will then set it self to 1 hour when i go back into settings. This is highly inconvenient as i am away from my desk 80% of the time during my day. Is this a bug? or something I need to investigate with my exchange server?
