I need to add school email in CM6. - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I need to add my email address for my college in CM6 but there isn't an option to do so. I can set it up OWA method but I don't have the options.
I go to Settings, Accounts & Sync, Add account and only see:
Twitter, Exchange, Facebook, Google. Where did the option for "Other" go? Any workaround?

Have you tried k-9 mail app for non gmail accounts? Avail in the marketplace!

Set it up under exchange then for the server use the link you go to to access the email ( without things that come after the / if there is one) and for the domain put the schools website

The domain would be the website I go to check my email correct? I don't think it's the school website.

the domain would most likely be the suffix of your email address.
it is possible that you login with a domain name other than the email suffix. however, if you're looking for the 'other' to set it up, then i'm pretty sure you already have the domain, user, server, etc.
email: [email protected]
domain = mydomain
server = email.mydomain.com
credentials: mydomain\me or it might be mydomain/me /shrug

Thanks I got it to work

Does K-9 have push mail?

You can read the description in the Market. Setting it up exchange worked fine for me as long as you know your login information and the school website.

Question on connecting my g2 to my schools email address?

I was wondering how I go about connecting my my school's email address ending in a .edu to my phone instead of my gmail account?

The email.apk should handle all email accounts. Gmail.apk is intended for Google Mail accounts.

The problem I have is figuring out what type of email account it is. The email address is powered through google but it has a csu.fullerton.edu domain. Its the weekend so I can't go to school and ask someone either. If someone has a similar school email like myself, it would be greatly appreciated if you told me what you typed in for the settings of your account.

It's really going to depend on your school - it could be anything. At my school, its webmail.(school initials here).edu. You're probably going to have to just log onto their web email application for now.
I hate the email app(. Thanks for all the replies!

My college uses webmail (run by Google) for email. All I did was in the Gmail app, add an account and put in my [email protected](school initals).edu and password and it worked. No special settings or anything in the gmail app.
Hey,
if it takes you to what gmail looks like give this a try~

Yeah, you'll have to get account specifics from the tech support people unless you already have that info on your PC

There is no Exchange 2008. Modern Exchanges are 2000,2003,2007,2010 so far.
I've never had an issue with an android running at least eclair connecting to an exchange server. are you certain activesync is properly setup and nothing is blocking port 80/443 inbound to the exchange server?

2008rt was released in 2010. It is a windows 7 server. I will figure it out today. I think it is the info I got is not right or they didn't submit my mailbox.

I think you mean Windows Server 2008 R2. If they have ActiveSync enabled on your account and the right ports forwarded you should be good.
Are you able to reach the Outlook Web Access page?
I looked for owa can't figure how to actually get to it. But yes it is 2008 r2. My boss has it synced to his wm7 phone s it is really irritating me that I'm not able to do it so far. I odin flashed stock ec05 no luck. It says unable to connect to server.

Is the OWA Url. Can you access your companies email via this route?
Yes. I have tried multiple apps to access and no go. I know this shouldn't be complicated but my boss owns an IT company and can't get it to work on this phone. What else besides making changes to the exchange server is there? For the giggles of it I turned off usb debugging.
Would a logcat of the fail connection help?

So is that a yes or no on accessing Outlook Web Access on a PC? I'm not talking about the full version of Outlook.

I can access outlook web access on a pc. I need exchange sync for the calendar syncing and email notifications. I went on to samsung support site for the epic and people there said this feature didn't work at all for this phone. In owa I can see that my phone is seen by the server. I might make changes to the exchange server itself to fix this problem. From what I read android doesn't have the right encryption to do exchange sync properly with all phones.

We use Exchange 2007 at work and we have plenty of Android devices synced to it. We just use the native email client on the Epics. Does the Epic complete the email account setup process when you try to add the account?

Reset your password on the server and try again. Make sure your account isn't locked out either.
If you have a legit Exchange Certificate leave SSL checked. Otherwise uncheck SSL.
I have tested it with exchange 2007 and 2010 seems to work fine. Try the following.
username try [email protected] If that doesnwork try domain\id example
[email protected] or microsoft\bobjones You can find your domain name when you go to log into a pc press CTL ALT DEL the machine shoud say logged in as domain\userid.
If I didn't enter in username or password right it would give authentication error. The error I'm getting says can not connect to server or unable to connect to server. Thanks to you guys for letting me know that you are capable of exchange sync and its not the phone as a whole.

[Q] IMAP mail on stock app how to enable push?

I was wondering if there is any way of making the stock mail app to receive push notifications from any imap server.
If I configure my professional mail account on the stock app it needs polling to check the server, what I guess consumes much more battery. If I use k-9 mail or aquamail it works perfectly (selecting 'never' on server polling), these apps doesn't need polling, the message is delivered (pushed) instantly as received on the server.
I can use any of these apps, but I'd like to use the stock mail app if someone knows how to enable this feature on it.
Thank you.
I didn't found a solution and I finally ended to use a third party app: MailDroid.
It's the best in my opinion and I also use push IMAP with it.

[Q] N900T Email creating issue

Hi guys, I bought almost new T-Mobile sim free Note 3 N900T with 4.4.2 KitKat.
All work fine, only I cant create any email. When I add email account and choose POP or IMAP and when I write details and click next I get always "Authentication Failed". Master Sync is enabled, google email working and I installed Yahoo email app and that email works also. Only custom email account can not be created. Any help?
Anyone?
Sent from my SM-N900T using XDA Free mobile app
Ok it's fixed. Only solution is to type whole email address on IMAP and SMTP servers like login. It won't connect to servers if you type only username without @domain.
