Ok, this is a great set up for syncing my calendar and tasks on a constant basis. I really didn't have a problem with the way email was working before but hey, the quicker the better.

Here are my issues:

1) I can't seem to make the my emails come through as html. Any suggestions? When I check online the emails are there in html but when they go to my Mogul they are converted to text. I found the setting on the mogul but it keeps defaulting back to "text only"

2) I still want to be able to sync with my PC but ever since I set this up, I can't do that. I tried using the comm manager to turn off my data connections to force the pc and the mogul to recognize each other. The device keeps saying that in order to connect I need to update the PC to ActiveSync 4.5, which is what is loaded.

Any suggestions or insight?

Sounds Great
 
Pardon my ignorance, but i just got my PPC and am learning all about it.

Does this setup:

1) Cause a data connection to stay on all the time, in order to get the pushes?

2) If the data connection stays on all the time, does it draw more battery than if the data connection was terminated? If so, is the runtime noticeably different?

3) Does hitting the on/off button on the phone (think it just kills the screen) affect this setup?

UPDATE: Just set it up. Sure is sweet. When my device received the mail notification, it didn't make any sounds but when i turned on the screen it showed the new mail icon on the top. How do i enable the sound for that? Thanks!

Thanks in advance!

1) yes
2) Not really
3) no

I would like to add that having direct push connected all the time dose cause a minimal amount of battery drain, it also has some side benefits. Like google maps requires a data connection but will not establish one on its own, with direct push connected you don't need to establish the connection to use this program, speeds things up allot. Also while connected the data stream still becomes dormant so the minimum amount of battery is used. I highly recommend this service, its free and ther are many other benefits from having all your PIM stored where you can access it at any time. This has saved me many timed in the almost 3 years I have been using it. :)

i set it up but it will not let me put in ad2 in the domain after i put the @ symbol in for my username. it syncs ok but will this be a security problem or anything since it does not have anything in the domain box.

With AOL?
 
I know nothing about AOL email but a friend of mine just got her first PPC. Does anyone know if there is a way to forward your AOL email to mail2web?
