outlook security - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development

hello,
basically i want to ask is there anyway to disable the privacy protection settings in wM6 outlook. I want outlook to automatically download all the pictures in the email without my permission. Is it possible???
Thanks in advance

I'd like to download images automatically too without going through the options. What security issues are there about automatically downloading images?

1. What does this have to do with windows mobile 6
2. What does this have to do wth a Hermes
3. What does this have to do with a PDA
4. HTTP://WWW.GOOGLE.COM
4.1 Maby an off topic post
And in response to the question when you download a image from a server the server knows the fact that you requested the image.
Also you can actually put info into the image url eg : www.spammer.com/[email protected]
This then shows the spammer that the email [email protected] is active cause an e-mail client (outlook) downloaded the picture.

Knbhead!
1. outlook in WM6 can display full html emails, the 1st time a M$ mobile operating system can do this.
2. WM6 is now on the Hermes
3. Hermes is a PDA
The rest of your reply was an intelligent answer to a good question. Thanks.
This forum might as well shut down if a good question asked for the first time that affects a lot of people is flamed, we don't need xda-developers because we can spend hours going through Google for different questions instead of finding all the great advice in one place. What is the point of this forum if if we can't ask for help?

nice reply..lol

Ill give ya that one bois.
I mis read the first post and didn't see the WM6
So in that case google would be a pain in the ase.

Dont know about you but my 2007 exchange downloads all the pics before i even opne the email.

Has anyone figured this out yet? I do know that Exchange will download the pictures but the POP3 will not automatically download. I have searched exstensivly with no luck.

I had the same problem with my POP3 account from Yahoo. There is an option in the Yahoo account (on the Yahoo server) to block images for privacy reasons, etc. I had to log in to my Yahoo account from my desktop, switch to the Yahoo Classic version (not the beta), then click options, then it is the 3rd page of the SPAM settings. Apparently it also affects emails that are sent to the mobile device. Hope this helps, even if you use another mail provider.

You could use Windows Live! Mobile. Please read the Wiki and search the forums next time before asking such a repetitive question .
You can get it from here (it's in the .zip file)
Ive just installed it on my phone, it really is the dogs danglies, far better than that £10.99 pocket msn rubbish Microsoft sell.
I used mobile live to get hotmail BUT this causes the wake up problem for me even after I remove it. I now use a fresh rom with GETMAIL program. I use the getmail freeware on my home desktop and forward all hotmail recieved to a pop3 capable account which I can use the built in outlook to check. Until a new version of live comes out I do not recommend it.

thank you very much!
although not searching for wmxl, I did search for hotmail with just abig misunderstanding on my part with the results. I guess sometimes mobile versions don't quite look the same as when rendered on the desktop. Once again thak you very much.

MSN Multiple Accounts

Hi, I've had my Touch HD for a couple of weeks now nearly and loving it and this is my first post on the forum so I hope it's in the right section.
I have a quick question regarding Windows Live Messenger / MSN on the phone. I notice when you sign into your account it will say "signing in as: username" is there any possible way to have more than one account registered so I can switch between them when signing in ? I have both personal and business accounts to use.
On a side note, I know that Fring / Palringo / Nimbuzz etc will allow multple IM accounts but I don't like any of their interfaces and don't really want to have another app installed just for one function if I can help it.
Are there any methods or cab files that will help me out ? Cheers.
So no-one has any ideas ? I can't find anything like this using the search. On a desktop pc you can run "Messenger Plus" from http://www.msgplus.net/ which will enable you to run 2 instances of MSN with differnet users. Is something like this possible on the Touch HD instead ?
I've been looking for this too
I'm looking at 3rd party messengers as they won't link with Windows Live and save your details.
=P

Not sure if this is what you are looking for - but this could be one of the solutions:
From your programs, Go to your Windows Live> Menu>Account Options>2. Switch Account
i use msn live messenger for one account and an old version(pocket msn) of msn messenger for the other one.. they both work fine..
Have you ever tried Palringo?

Email Sigs and UC

Hi all,
I have searched and searched and can't find the answer anywhere.
I am trying to figure out where signatures for email accounts other than exchange are stored. I know the exchange one is stored in:
HKLM\Software\HTC\Signature
however I have an IMAP account and I cannot seem to find it anywhere. As I have several email accounts on my phone, I want to have them in UC so I don't have to flash them each time.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,

For signature if you can not find it, use Resco Registry Editor or any other reg editor that lets you search and search for the phrase you are looking for.
If you go to the original UC thread there are instructions on how to setup a file for your emails. Also, once you find that you can use OEMizer to generate a file for you after you enter info in.
At0mAng,
Thank you for the reply. I have searched through the registry and the only thing I can find is HKLM\Software\HTC\Signature. This setting only changes the exchange email account.
As for the original UC thread, I have went through it and read through the instructions on setting up UC and SDConfigt.txt and I now have my 5 accounts automatically installing correctly plus my exchange account.
Only prob, I am still stuck on the signatures for the 5 accounts that are not exchange.
Sorry if i missed something
Do you have a file named SignatureReplace.exe on your device?
Thanks again for getting back to me...
Yes I do have SignatureReplace (.exe & .lnk) files in my \windows dir.
... not sure what to do with them though......
As At0mAng has left us.. would anyone else have any idea as to how or what signaturereplace does ?
Trying to setup signatures via UC..
Thanks,

200 points for this man!
This question was asked way back in June 07!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311030
It does give an explanation in the thread as to why you might not want to automatically download messages... basically you could suddenly find you are swamped with even more junk mails..

i am not even sure how to make sense of what was said in that thread. I dont see how allowing automatic download for html images in an email will increase spam to the mail account. at this point in the game, winmo is the only platform that doesnt allow html rendering by default. if this were true, then woulding everyone else who doesnt use a windows mobile device be flooded with spam?
Umm... pretty sure that my GMAIL account handles the SPAM ok.
I'm still going to look into this a bit more, but I have been super busy today.
As i understand what is said, spam senders send messages to accounts generated at random hoping some of them get to a proper account. The pictures that are in the email are encoded with email address it is sent to eg. [email protected] so that if you download that image the server knows that is a valid email address and is noted.. and spread for everyone else to send you a message...

Yes... that's exactly correct....except it goes to a server not an email address... basically the concept is that it notifies the sender that the email is legit, and adds them to the list of good email addresses to sell

like l3it3r said, my spam filter does a great job. can't tell you the last time i've seen spam come through my inbox. thats a none issue over here.
me either. It is a very rare occasion when I get spam in either my corporate or personal email.
if thats a problem we could atleast try to have an option to "trust this sender" or something to automatically download html pics from trusted sources
have added this thread to my subscriptions and will watch with interest
This is something that I have found annoying for a long time now that I can't just download the images in my emails by default. I really expected it to be an easy fix and that I would find an answer straight away along the lines of "...change this one line of the registry to '0' ... " so I was really surprised to see it was a much more complicated issue.
Anyway thanks in advance to anyone with the tech knowhow who is looking into this for us all
maybe its possible to make some script or something that presses automaticly "download pictures" when email opened... i have no idea how or if its possible but maybe someone can...
For Outlook on desktop computer this is possible on registry hack. On mobile outlook this registry key is not persist...?!
http://email.about.com/od/outlookexpressreading/qt/et_inline_off.htm
Maybe is possible on other location?
I'm looking for a solution to this as well. I would like the option to trust certain senders, at least. I can't believe Microsoft didn't trust us enough to give us an option for this. I would also like to have scrolling permanently enabled.
If you add the sender to your contacts, it will automatically download the images. This is the only way I have ever known to make this work, it would be great if someone figured it out, but until then this is the only work around I know.
i would like to have this function as well.. is great that my email mostly need image downloaded together.. when i got slow connection, i would like it to download all n internet picture together while it is idle. then once i got time i can faster read it all without further waiting for downloading.
thumbs up for this feature. at least have an option so that user can tweak themselves. no nid to argue about anything but juz let user make the choice accordingly.
DEFINITELY need to have this automatically download internet pictures AND turn on scrolling..... what's the point of having such a great screen and touch capabilities when the stupid email can't figure out how to show you pictures and let you scroll right?
HUGE oversight on Microsoft's part there - email should look as nice and classy as Opera does on my TP2!!!
UP !!!
I am still looking over this. Its really annoying and kills me. What a waste?

[Q] ActiveSync 2003 and HTML email

Anyone have any new information or found a fix for receiving HTML email in the stock HTC mail client? From what I understand Exchange ActiveSync 2007 works but not 2003. Is this correct? I've used TouchDown (which works with 2003) but I prefer the interface of the stock client.
Thanks for reading...
This is important to me.
I want to reply to emails that give the appearance of writing from my desk. Some people do question your efficiency if you often appear to be mobile.

It think that depends on who you interface with, I've typed:
---
Sent via mobile phone
...before from my desktop to give a short answer as I look into something. But I think you should generally stick to the 5 sentences rule, or better yet 3 sentence rule.
Emails should be just a little more than a text mssg would be. Short, concise and convenient.
Touchdown has the option not to add your signature, just uncheck it...did you try that? Just sayin.
Hope you find a way, I'm on 2003 too.
Cheers
Actually, I practice that. The only thing that resembles the fact that I'm on a cellphone is that it's not html.
