Windows Mobile SMTP Hotfix Released
E-mail bug hits Windows Mobile 6.1 phones
Every phone that runs Windows Mobile version 6 and later has a copy of the Windows Update application. However, I've yet to see a patch being offered for Windows Mobile 6 phones. If your device runs Windows Mobile 6.1, you should be offered an update, because there's a bug that corrupts your primary e-mail settings whenever you use an alternative SMTP e-mail server. That's a bit annoying, to say the least. The Outlook Mobile Team blog has the full details on the patch. See http://blogs.msdn.com/outlook_mobile/default.aspx and http://support.microsoft.com/kb/958639 The cab, msi, and html instruction files are located here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...DisplayLang=en According to the Outlook Mobile Team Blog Update: We are seeing the issue reported in one of our comments on some devices: After applying the patch you may not be able to access your POP or IMAP accounts.Note that this is not occuring on all devices, so you may not experience a problem with the patch. We are trying to determine how many devices out there might run into this now. [FONT='Times New Roman','serif'][/FONT] If you apply the patch and have this problem you can uninstall the patch. On Windows Mobile Standard: Start, Settings, Remove ProgramsCheck back here and we'll keep you posted on our progress. I've posted the files here as well. Note just remove the .zip from all of the attached files. Enjoy! |
