Hello,
Reading on the web, I could see some talks about:
- Palm Pre support for multiple exchange accounts
- Mutiple exchange accounts support on Android 2.0
- Tricks for getting multiple exchange accounts on iPhone
... in order words, it looks the only devices not supporting it at all are Windows Mobile devices!
Do you have any idea if MS is looking at supporting this in the near future? Is there any trick or third party application which would allow it?
Thanks
should look into using seven should be able to set up mutplie exchange acccounts on that
http://community.seven.com/main.php
Seven does not seem to be an answer for full multiple exchange accounts..
Although seven allows to define multiple exchange accounts the contents of what you sync cannot overlap. So it is possible to use it if you want to sync calendar from one exchange and contacts from another. But it does not allow to sync calendar data from 2 separate accounts.

Hi,
I want to connect to my work Exchange server. However, the option for Exchange is missing in the ROM. From the email setup, Pick your provider, I get Internet e-mail or Custom Domain.
There should be one for Exchange server there, but there isn't.
Can anyone help to get this option back?
Cheers
Exchange support
Hi,
Surely someone must have an answer for Exchange support?
Set it up via the ActiveSync app on your phone, not the email setup.
Cool,
Thanks. I'll try that. Just reflashing at the moment...
Works For Me
If you go into the activesync program, select menu, then select "Configure Server" you can setup your exchange server through there, works great for me, constantly synced.

Does this push your calendar to your dash as well as the email? I just purchased the G1, didn't even have it 24 hours. It certainly has some shortcomings but I was enjoying the calendar and email sync from google. Got back to my office and I was moved to the exchange server and of course no support on the android. I really like a lot of the features of my dash, but never had exchange before. I guess I am going back to it but wonder if my calendar and emails will be synced?
Yes they will. That's the whole point of a mail server like.. exchange. To sync your email !!
Yes, it does calendar too
I can confirm that the ActiveSync Exchange configuration works on the Kavana and Ricky ROMs. Not only emails, but also personal calendar items sync. Group calendar entries, however, do not sync. THIS IS NOT specific to Kavana/Ricky ROMs. It's just a feature that Microsoft left out of ActiveSync in Windows Mobile all the way up to v6.1. You should warn your Exchange support people that they should discourage group calendar use, as Microsoft incompletely implemented it. Instead, people should use the traditional invite/response system that puts calendar entries in the personal store when they are accepted.
I hear that there are third party agents that run on the Exchange server and, basically, copy group invites into all of the group members' personal stores so that ActiveSync syncs them, so if your office insists on using group calendars then they should look for one of those server add-ons.

Which ROM supports 2 exchange accounts ???

I have never seen one, sorry.

"Android 2.0 (Eclair) is due to be released soon, amongst a number of new features Eclair will boost support for multiple email accounts running on the same device and offer full multiple Exchange account support."
I tryed some custom ROM with 2.0 and 2.1 and none support multiple exchange account.
Stock Android 2.0 upwards should have this feature. Unfortunately it doesn't support policy enforcement. Only HTC Roms support policy enforcement, but no multiple Exchange accounts, from what I know.
I think there are some Exchange-Mail-Apps in the marketplace. I remeber to have used the 3rd party app TouchDown Echange until hero came out with native exchange support.
Try one of these apps, they bring you a fully separated inbox. Maybe not quite well integrated into OS-features, but usable für reading and writing mails + calendar appointments.
I don't know of a single device that can handle multiple *exchange* accounts i.e multiple ActiveSync accounts.
You can have one configured with activesync and one configured with imap sure, but both won't be typical *push* activesync.
I don't believe it to be possible, but maybe im wrong?
I decided that the private mail i have at exchange with the domain redirects to Gmail and it will work.
OK, here's the deal. My wife won't get a smartphone. And she refuses to use Outlook or similar desktop mail/calendar. She has her one Yahoo email address and is happy with it. Period. She keeps dates on a calendar in the kitchen.
I sync OTA with exchange through my office for all work related appointments. I then cable sync at home to add my personal calendar items. Is there an online calendar through Yahoo, Google or similar that is simple for my wife to use and would allow me to sync my wife's calendar to my phone as well?

Google Calendar would probably be your best option to bridge this gap for you
It's crazy simple for her to use (and for you to setup for her), and has quite a few sync options, including windows mobile...info on how that would work on your end are HERE.
Thanks for the Google info and especially the link. It's cool to see how people on xda go the extra mile to help each other. After reading your Google link I think I have realized that the limitation may be with Active Sync. It looks as if under the 'Configure Server' settings in ActiveSync there is only the optioj to configure one push account. Since I am hooked into my exchange server at work I don't see a way to also add the Gmail server settings as well.

That is correct (as far as I know), you can't setup GCal and Outlook to both sync to your phone's calendar separately.
However, what I was thinking of (and didn't do a good job of pointing you to...) is that you can setup GCal to sync to your outlook calendar on the desktop side, then when you sync to your outlook, whatever your wife has added to her calendar will be there as well.
Step-by-step HERE. Basically, you'd sync her google calendar to your desktop outlook at work, which would then update that on the exchange server. Whenever you synced with that, locally or remotely, you should get the stuff from her calendar as well. You can setup the GCal-outlook sync to be one-way only, so she doesn't get all your work stuff added to her own calendar.
Let me know if that would work for you...I don't really know of any other options for a simple calendar for her to be ok with, that will get her appts onto your phone...other than maybe just using opera to view the web version of her calendar..??
You can sync multiple accounts, multiple calendars to each account, etc, each winding up in their own individual category with ActiveGCSync.
It uses Google's API directly, so no activesync etc.. It can sync calendar and contacts, but honestly syncing contacts takes forever. Syncing the calendar could take 1-2 minutes depending upon how much change there is, but IMO not too big a deal for the flexibility.
I demand having each calendar in its own category so it shows in different colors and PhoneAlarm acts differently on it.. Am In in a work meeting? PhoneAlarm lowers all volume. Personal event's show up in a different color, etc..

OK, so I know that the stock Android and HTC mail apps both support IMAP (in a limited fashion), but they (and every other third-party client I've tried to use) lack ALL of the features below that are commonplace on a "full" desktop client that IMO is essential to use e-mail effectively:
K-9 is the only one that has most of the features outlined below so I am using it for the time being, but it lacks an online search facility which is a must for me to find old messages whilst I have a connection.
True offline support (read, search and reply to "already-synchronised" mail offline - draft facility to save for sending later)
Copy sent items to an IMAP folder automatically - important so that all sent messages appear in the same IMAP folder no matter if they've been sent from the desktop or phone.
Multiple selectable IMAP folder polling (I may have server-side rules that deliver mail to other folders apart from the root inbox)
...and most importantly:
Online server-side search (similar to the GMail app) - it's no good being able to simply search synched mail - I only sync the last 25 messages in each folder to keep polling times low
Is there any client that satisfies all of the above?
The GMail app is the only one I think that does all of these (albeit that it's not IMAP), but I have a work IMAP account that I want to interact with directly without forwarding etc. to another GMail account etc.
If there isn't one out now I doubt you'll find one
Unified Google Calendar & Corporate Calendar (supports Exchange 2003 and 2007 & 2010 protocol)
I really, really, really don't want to have to move to a Droid Pro or X
I am not sure what you are looking for here. My corporate exchange email syncs the calendar as well as my google calendar. They show on the same screen with color codes distinguishing them from one another.

My exchange never synced, I had to use touchdown for last year and just got kicked off the server for not being a compliant phone. Both the x and pro are and the both have that as their features on Verizon's website
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
It's not as simple as just "Exchange 2010 compliant". It depends on what specific Exchange policies have been configured on your company's Exchange server. The server can even be configured to only accept specific phone models regardless of advertised policies (presumably to weed out phones that lie about their capabilities). If your IT department is locking down their Exchange servers, they really ought to publish which policies are required.
I can connect to my Exchange server with the stock Mail app and the Agenda widget pulls in my Exchange, Google, and Facebook calendars.
