Live Account Exchange issue - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

My University contracts students email out to Microsoft. As a result I have a live account that I'm able to configure as an Exchange account. I never had an issue on older Android devices but something is hanging up after authentication.
I believe its after authentication because if I type my password wrong I get a login error. Otherwise it simply states that it can't connect to the server after the connection times out.
Just looking to see if anyone else has a similar issue. Its not a huge deal for me but would be nice to have. I'm going to file a ticket with our help desk. Took some screenshots so they know I'm configuring it all right and see my error messages.
My work email hosted on Exchange 2003 works just fine. The school email consistently times out on 3g, 4g, and wifi.

Considering the official Hotmail app doesn't support the Nexus it may be a compatibility issue that I need to wait out.
EDIT: Hotmail accounts configure just fine.

Built in exchange support or not?

Just saw a disturbing post and I wanted to get some confirmation from those who own the phone.
I saw in a comment on a review of this phone that it doesn't support Ms exchange for email or calendar. I absolutely news push email and calendar for my business. Can anyone confirm if this is true or not?

I am using MS exchange on my SGSII with no issues. Not sure where you read that, but it is totally false. Push email, calendar and contacts all work with exchange.
Thanks. Awesome news

No issues on my side. This phone activates exchange the same way my last 4 android phones have. No issues at all as far as the phone side goes. Also if you have root you can replace the TW email.apk with the stock Gingerbread one. I did this just because I like the aosp email better.

The builtin mail app works fine with my exchange server. I use Touchdown because I like the interface better though...
One thing that you might not be aware of if you're using Exchange 2010 for your mail server is that there is a limit to the number of devices you can connect to an account. You can manage connected devices in OWA so login there and delete any old devices...
One other thing that my exchange server does when I connect the phone to it is to push security settings to my phone. A popup appears on the phone that I have to accept in order to sync mail. If I don't, I don't get anything...
Finally, you could try touchdown and if it works but the built in mail app doesn't then I'd recommend the purchase. It's still better than the improved built in version IMHO
Robin. Another quick question. Can you send and accept calendar invites for exchange from the native calendar apply? That's another big one for me. I am aware of touchdown and even own the license but I am a minimalist and if I don't have to install an app that's services are already present I wont. Thank you in advance.

Unable to open connection to server due to security error

Hello,
I had my email account set up on my ET4G. I've cleared it completely in the past and been able to set it up again.
I went to add my corporate email back on my phone and I'm getting the "Unable to open connection to server due to security error". We are running Exchange 2010 SP1. We've had SP1 on for several months now so nothing has changed with the server. Any guess on why I can't set up my corporate email account any more? When I set up the account on my phone everything looks fine. It asks me what I want to sync and history etc. I don't get the error till I try to open email.
I'm able to set up outlook connections remotely and check it from my ipad and check my email on the web.
Strange. This is new on my device I got an authorization notice I didn't notice until I swiped from the top and looked at the notifications. Once I approved it I was all set.
Lots of people running exchange 2010 sp1 have this problem. Enhanced email is a great alternative and is currently free on the amazon market, I recommend it immensely. It bypasses the exchange pin which is what kills the stock email app

I'm using Enhanced Email -- still having this issue! Is it confirmed to be a problem with Exchange 2010? I've received this error on both the stock Email app, and now Enhanced Email so feel like I'm running out of options! Any help would be appreciated!
I've posted a step by step guide for connecting your Epic Touch 4G / Galaxy SII to your exchange server. It works with Exchange 2010 including Exchange 2010 SP1.

I'm not having issues actually setting up the account, that works fine. The issue is it sometimes will not be able to sync with the server, leaving me with the yellow box at the top and without an updated email inbox. As you can assume this leaves me quite helpless because I need my email right away when away from my desk.
Anyone else with this issue and potential solutions???
Thks
Thks a Ton Jim. You just saved a Samsung S2 getting sunk in the pacific. Struggling since a week.
Additional step required
This was the key! Thanks so much!
If it give you an error message such as "Unable to open connection to server due to security error", your device may require an additonal step. Slide your finger from the very top of your device to the bottom. Check for notifications and there may be a notification your must allow the security update for email to complete. Enjoy

Help with Exchange Error

I am just leaving for a week trip and realize that I am not getting emails on stock app and ROM from work. I can send email but not receive. The email account via webmail or the desktop works. The problem exists on both my S3 and Note2. My IT Department verified the problem using their Android phone and my account. The problem didn't exist on the iPhone they tested. Clearly this is a server issue that has the IT team puzzled. Any help would be appreciated since I am on the road and helpless.
I tried all the typical solutions like deleting accounts etc.

Just got 4.4, stock email acting weird

I've seen the threads about exchange syncing, but this is a little different so I have to ask. It downloads email from my website's mail server just fine (pop email connection). However unlike 4.3 and earlier, when I get home and download my mail off the server (no copies are left on the server), the stock email app does not remove these emails from itself. I end up having to delete from inbox and then from trash. Anyone know if this is intended new functionality or is it a bug similar to what I've been reading about it not syncing with Exchange?
Hmm apparently whatever was going on was temporary. It's actually working fine now.

First of all, you need to request server settings and which encryption as well as how do you use login information.
I have CUNY email, but server is outlook.com.
You see our college site doesn't even indicate if the email is POP3 or imap , the reason I know u can set it up is my friend has it on his iPhone but unlike iPhone android didn't have an option of "other"

You may use Exchange instead of POP/IMAP.
