Well folks, the answer is no... aol does not allow forwarding...

Notification
 

I've noticed that since using mail2web I don't get notification when new e-mails arrive. Is there anything I can do to correct this? I have my phone set so an alert will go off as new e-mails arrive, but it's not working. I have the identical setup for text and there are no issues with that.

haven't had any issues here, but note that if poutlook is open you will not receive any notifications of emails. ;)

That must be it. Thanks! I just setup the proxy address, too so now my outgoing addy is my sbcglobal not mail2web 8) Now if I could just get this damn activesync working on my work laptop I'd be all set.

have u tried the activsync.cab fix? worked like a charm here.

I have a Samsung IP-830w. I did try it though, just didn't work. It has to be something specific with this laptop. I had a desktop prior to this and I was able to get activesync to work. The same tips and tricks don't seem to be working on the laptop. It's a Dell Latitude D610 if that makes a difference.

u got me, try posting a ? in the ip830 forum maybe pzztgotbagz can help...
~mike

I posted this in that forum already and got no responses, but I figured it out! I knew it had to be something specific with this laptop. There are two firewalls; one I knew about and one I didn't. Windows Firewall was the one I knew about and had been tinkering with it since I got the laptop, but there is an AT&T Global Network firewall also that I never knew existed. I disabled that one and enabled the Windows firewall and all is well.

yeap firewalls can do that, along with antivirus and so on.....

for some reason I cannot sync contacts and calendar with the mail2web exchange and my work laptop. I was able to sync contacts and calendar with my home laptop and exchange, though. any idea why?

no clue on that one unless u still have the orther pc setup in activsync maybe??? just a guess.

You may want to add the following tip to the mini-tutorial:

If you go in to your control panel (support.mail2web.com, log in with your user name), then go to manage your account, there will be a "SMTP Proxy address" choice. In here, you can specify what you want your reply to address to be. Type it in and click add and it will send a confirmation email to the address you specified (so it knows you own it) and from then on people will see whatever address you typed in as opposed to the @mail2web.com address which is very handy when you answer emails from your phone.

This way, you will get the message back at your actual "real" inbox and a copy forwarded to your phone.

Problem...I set it up verbatim to these instructions, but when I send a email from mail2web to my work email it says account not found (or something like that) I should be able to get it since our email is on our business cards and we do use it for business communication

recheck ur settings, and make sure u can sign in at live.mail2web.com. If so then maybe ur domain is different? again just a guess... :D btw ur gonna love push mail. ;)
~Mike

Yea but you can't do this is you don't pay for the personal exchange account right?
~Mike

I think you are correct. I just signed up for the free service, and I don't have SMTP Proxy address as a choice.
I use IMAP for my email, so I figure I'll keep doing that, and then use the push for my calendar, notes, and tasks. That way, I'll never have to sync with my desktop.

Not working so well, at least not the way I wanted it to. It looks as if I can't sync my desktop outlook with mail2web. The exchange only works through activesync. So I'm syncing my PPC with both my desktop outlook, and mail2 web, to basically have an online backup for restoring at all times as Wideawake was mentioning.

oh man. push email = heaven. to have my gmail pushed to my device + able to appear as though i'm replying from my gmail box is SO worth the two dollars per month.

this is absolutely incredible. straight up. i'm about to choke up, here...

hey this works awsome thanks!!!

Anybody notice that emoze is not really push mail ?

The phone communicates with the server almost constantly. Pretty useless on x1.

Hey everyone,

Oren here from Emoze.

Emoze superior security standard incorporates AES-128 encryption, authentication and symmetrical keys. These security standards insure end-to-end security for all data. At no stage data is transferred unencrypted over the network.

I wouldn't want my emails running through a 3rd party, would you?
Push email is just the start, we also push your Contacts, Calender & corporate emails.

You can contact me directly for any specific questions you may have.

Happy New Year! :P

just to let ppl know i was able to get this to work on a i930 running 2003 os. works great. much better then ping as the emails stay on the damn phone. lol. i will be back soon nextel contract is up on 4th so im calling bro today to tell him to put me on sprint not nextel. :D :D

Have been using emoze for a while (about 3 months). Didnt like it at first, but that was because 6700 didnt have ring thru hack then. I can say that since the rom upgrade (also includes ring thru fix), emoze is much better. i have it synching calendar, contacts and email. I have it synching every 1hr though. Kind of drains battery, if you are on always push/on option. Tried to get them to work on that, but to no avail.

SPAM DO NOT CLICK THAT LINK!!!

Server Could Not Be Reached. Check the Server Name
 

Hi all,

I signed up for mail2web and can log into their site but when I try to sync my Sprint 700wx, it errors out and says that the server could not be reached.

I double checked the server name and it's correct. mobile.exchange.mobile2web.com

Anyone run into this before?

Thanks,

Aimee

its mobile.exchange.mail2web.com notice its mail2web at the end. something like that happened to me..lol I was doing web2mail.

Is there anyway possible to sync Mail2Web to Outlook on my PC. I know there is a way to configure it with an exchange server.

I am unable to do this or I am simply doing something wrong.

Please help.

Thanx

D'OH!!!!!!!

*slaps self on forehead*

Thank you!!!

i cant seem to configure any exchange server to my outlook on my pc.

does anyone know how?

u can't with mail2web unless u pay for it ;)

i know, but i have my buddy's exchange server that i use. how would i set it up?

Surely theres a setup wizard. I really don't know....I don't use outlook on the desktop.

PPC 6700 , Problems with "push email" using Gmail
 

Maybe you guys can help. I sent the following to Mail2web tech support. I have the $1.95/month account that lets me use my Gmail as the "from" address. See below...

I have a POP3 Gmail account where email is being forwarded from there to my Mail2web Exchange account. I also set the primary "from" address to show my Gmail email. I have Activesync with my PPC-6700 handeld device. Now I am having two problems:

Problem # 1: When I send an email from my PPC-6700 in Pocket Outlook, the message is not saved in the "Sent folder." But it does show up in my sent folder on the Mail2web Exchange server website via my home computer, but not on my handheld device.

Problem # 2: When I send an email from my PPC-6700, it is not saved in my Gmail sent folder when I log on to my account at Gmail.com. Is that because I am using the mail2web Exchange server as my outgoing mail server? I used to have a BlackBerry 8700g, and when I sent an email from my BlackBerry (using my Gmail address), it would show up in my Gmail sent folder. If BlackBerry can do it, then I can do it this way too, right?

Please let me know how I can fix these problems.

Re: PPC 6700 , Problems with "push email" using Gm
 

You can change this setting in Gmail. Go to where you set it to forward and make sure it is set to keep the mail, archive it, or whatever you want.

I've looked all over the web, tried various things, and still it doesn't work. I have tried it in Office 2003 and Office 2007.

I don't really care because I use the exchange server, but it would be nice since I cannot sync my PPC to my PC Outlook for some reason. It just won't do it. It will do it after a reformat of my PC, but shortly after(about a week) it doesn't do it anymore. It will allow me to Explorer and transfer files, but it won't sync my contacts and calendar properly. It just puts blank ones in and I have tried absolutely everything I can think of. Deleted AS from the computer, uninstalled Office, deleted my PPC partnership, the whole 9 yards. Still it fails after about 10 tries or sooner. I have posted my issue in several forums and no on seems to be able to assist.

I hope someone here can help even though this thread isn't the best place for it. I will start a new one if necessary.

Thanx

Re: PPC 6700 , Problems with "push email" using Gm
 

You misunderstood my original question. My Gmail is forwarding my emails to my Exchange email address, and also keeping a copy on the Gmail account. The problem that I am having is that when I send an email from my 6700 Outlook, I have two problems: 1) It does not show up in my 6700 Outlook "sent" folder. 2) It does not show up in my Gmail account "sent" folder. The only "sent" folder that it show up in, is on my mail2web Exchange server.

Re: PPC 6700 , Problems with "push email" using Gm
 

Correct! It will never show in your Gmail sent folder unless you reply to it from the Gmail server because you sent it from your exchange server instead of google's. It WILL show in your Pocket Outlook sent folder if you have it selected in your phone's options to do so(saving sent items).

This is the only way. Other than that you have what it does down pat and there is no way to change it.

Re: PPC 6700 , Problems with "push email" using Gm
 

OK, I got it to now show my sent email on my pocket outlook. Apparently you have to manually select to sync the "sent" folder under "manage folders" on the pocket outlook options.

But when I use to have my BlackBerry, I would send email from my BlackBerry using my Gmail... but again, it was sent from my BlackBerry! Then there would always be a copy in my Gmail sent folder if I ever needed to go back later.

The problem is I am having some sent items on my mail2web sent folder and some on my Gmail sent folder, depending upon where I am sending email from.

Bottom line - BlackBerry just has way better overall email. The push is faster, especially when sending, but also a little faster on receiving too.

agreed. what, other than the email, is the benefit of have a blackberry?

I had (and still have) a BlackBerry 8700g through T-Mobile.

This is how I think it is better than the PPC-6700:

Like I said earlier, the BlackBerry "push" email is completely integrated, and you can add on any emial account that you want without have to go through this difficult process like with the PPC-6700. With the PPC-6700, I had to first set up an account at Mail2web for $2.00 per month. Then I had to change my Gmail settings to forward to my Mail2web Exchange server. Then I had to set up Activesync on my PPC-6700. The BlackBerry email is faster on both sending and receiving too.

Most importantly, I can get an unlimited international data plan through T-Mobile for $20 extra per month and use the 8700g anywhere in the world with GPRS service. I get unlimited email / internet. I can also tether it to my computer anywhere in the world (and in the USA) and basically have an internet connection on my laptop anywhere in the world (included in the $20 per month).

Other than that though, the PPC-6700 is better. The BlackBerry 8700g completely SUKS for internet!! EVDO is wayyyy faster than the T-Mobile EDGE.

So there you have it. I think that I'll be keeping both since I travel international about once every two weeks.

And by the way, I still can not get the sent emails to show up in my Gmail sent box. I emailed Mail2web tech support and they said that you could not do that. Oh well.
