Hi all,
I got my Desire yesterday. It is a gorgeous device, but has one fatal flaw. The POP/IMAP manual e-mail setup in HTC mail is not working.
Gmail or Hotmail work fine - there is no need for a manual setup, the phone does it for you.
But Yahoo, or any other custom mail does not work. When setting up the incoming and outgoing mail server, the phone gets stuck at the incoming mail server setting and doesn't advance to the outgoing server setting as it should.
After you set up the incoming mail server you hit next and the phone checks online and a popup says "Verifying account settings". After this is done, I believe it should advance to outgoing server settings, but it doesn't and gets stuck at the incoming server settings screen...
This is a very fatal mistake and problem - one of the main functions of a smartphone not working...
Can you guys see if it works for you - maybe its only my unit that is faulty?

I got it set it up on my University IMAP fine, I had this issue but just had to change the security type to TSL.
Unfortunately that doesn't work for me...
It is very weird, as the same settings worked with K-9 mail app without any issues...
I got the same issue so I use K-9 Mail instead (which I prefer since it seems to push my emails faster)
I can't get it to sign in to gmail. I have a @googlemail account, and it just fails to verify account information every time. All other mail accounts, Hotmail and proper POP3, work fine.
That's cause you use the Gmail app for Googlemail, not the normal mail app

I prefer to use the HTC mail widget. Anyway, I got the thing going now, by connecting via imap instead.
I'm in touch with HTC customer service and we're trying to figure out what is wrong. I'll set up a test account for them so that they can test it and see why the e-mail is not being set-up. Will update later...
i set up gmail as an exchange server.. Only done it half hour ago but it should be push now
I'm also having this same issue. (Trying to use SSL.)
Anyone manage to made Yahoo Mail wotking on IMAP? I have an YahooPlus account and I can connect using a WM device, but no chance with Desire [using the same settings as in WN device]. On Desire, it stuck on first step - setting of incoming IMAP mail server, saying each time "wrong username/pw"....
Same issue for me

Not IMAP but with POP3, yep. Works flawlessly.

Has anyone sorted this out ? I've having the same issue with the imap setup on my desire. Very frustrating after shelling out for this thing.
Cheers
Have you tried using the stock Android mail app which can be found here:
http://rhedgehog.com/apk/email.apk
I prefer this to the HTC Sense mail app and its much more flexible/configurable during the set-up phase, I had problems with my Uni account swapped to this and no problems since then using IMAP, POP and SMTP
I also have difficulties getting IMAP+SSL to work with the HTC mail application.
I suspect it has something to do with the certificate. The server I'm trying to connect to doesn't have a verified certificate, and you don't get prompted to accept the certificate, as you do if you use the K-9 mail app.

I had same kind of problems with Hero after upgrading to android 2.1.
Problem seems to be related to setup procedure. It is not able to prompt certificate acceptance dialog. But if you setup account with address that is not existing or where is not imaps service running it will say that it can't verify account but you are able to continue. After creating account launch mail application, go to settings and put real server name. At this point it will prompt certificate acceptance dialog and after that it is working.
I of course had the same trouble on my Aria but managed to get it working by following these instructions:
first open mail.
enter manual setup.
INCOMING:
as for settings:
protocol: Imap
Email: [email protected]
user name: youraccount
password: your password
IMAP server: imap.mail.yahoo.com
security type: none
server port:143
OUTGOING:
login required is checked
user name: youraccount
password: your password
SMTP server: smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com
security type: none
server port: 587
NOTE: if it still wont let you set up incoming server, try first entering in a non-existent server. such as imap.mail.yahoo.commm or something. it will give you an error message but hit continue. NOT OK! from there set up outgoing correctly.
then exit.
then launch mail app and select that account. click menu-more-settings-account settings and enter the correct server address.
hopefully this works for you guys as it did for me.
--Edit--
forgot to add, if possible, make sure wifi is off.
also, I have discovered that htc mail wont log in unless you are SIGNED OUT of your yahoo account everywhere else. i had my laptop automatically loading yahoo's web pasge and i guess it was messing it up. so sign out of yahoo mail before closing your browser.
hope this helps.
sent my yahoo and my talktalk account up on my phone..fine!
HOWEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!
I had to do this on my WiFi as it would not connect over 3G...
Hi All.
Sorry to start a new thread but I need help setting up my email accounts.
I have two; a @blueyonder address and a @live.co.uk address.
I seem to have gotten my @live.co.uk account receiving but still unable to send. My blueyonder one will do neither.
I'm using an Orange upgrade Desire and using the HTC mail app.
Please Help
hellooo
try to change SMTP server your mobile operator
If you have Orange UK operator smtp.orange.net
For example: smtp.t-zones.sk that is smtp server form Slovak T-Mobile operator
Thank You!
Thats worked but I have a new problem now
With my live.co.uk email, after receiving on the phone, I can still receive the email on my outlook.
But with my blueyonder account, once I've received an email on my phone, it no longer downloads to outlook (and vice versa).
Anything I can do?
you need to use IMAP, or set it to leave a copy on the server, otherwise once an email is downloded via POP it tends to not be available to other devices
What is Imap and how does it work?
I am leaving a copy on the server. Both HTC Desire settings and outlook settings state "Leave copy on server" and I've even checked the webmail/server- and the email is still there- unread.
As I say, seems to be working fine with my @live.co.uk address.
Also just noticed I can't send via a wifi network on either account. Not a huge deal, but strange.
Try imap4.blueyonder.co.uk for your incoming mail server address and outgoing: smtp.blueyonder.co.uk
Try checking TLS if available by selecting the security type as TLS.
Hotmail settings are here
incoming settings
protocol =pop
pop server = pop3.live.com
security type =ssl
server port =995
outgoing settings
login required =ticked
username =hotmail addy ie [email protected]m
smtp server=smtp.live.com
security type=tls
server port=587
Account name =Hotmail
Your Name =what ever you want it to display
Thanks everybody. Got everything sorted.
Still can't send from my blueyonder account via wifi but I assume thats something to do with using the orange smtp stuff.
I can't get my exchange setup and am really wanting to find a way to at least get (don't need to respond even... just view).
I have all my info the phone asks for for exchange, but I get the following message when it trys to connect:
Your Microsoft Exchange Server account does not have permission to synchronize with your current settings. Contact your Exchange Server administrator.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I've also tried setting up a rule in outlook to forward all incoming mail to a gmail account and that's not working either.
Are there any other options I have here? Corporate won't even talk to me (I tried) because they support ONLY phones they provide and they didn't provide this one (they're blackberry fanboys).
I used to have a blackberry (not one they provided) and could get email fine on it through BIS. Is there anything like BIS for phones other than BB? Something where you set up an exchange account online with the service and they then forward the mail to your phone or something?
I was able to setup my Exchange support no sweat. This is the first android device available in the US that can handle the harsh security policies set forth by my company. Works great.
You need to make sure you have the following info:
Account name
Password
Domain
Email Address
Server <this may be your issue>
whether or not they support SSL
The server is most likely not "yourcompany.com". For example my company uses "webmail.yourcompany.com". Secondly, your account name should be the same as your email address with the "@yourcompany.com" part. Its possible for it to be different. You should be able to get the domain name from your corporate PC/Laptop. aside from that, just try with the SSL option. If that fails try it again without.

BIS is different than Exchange, it connects to Exchange but does it's own thing with email, calendar, etc..
If you have never connected to your Exchange server using ActiveSync, it would need to be configured on the Exchange server.
The forwarding is also an Exchange server side configuration that the "fanboys" would need to setup.
I know you can have gmail check email on an external account, did you try configuring that?
okay... so if you don't mine i'll post the info you're saying i need with what i think the information is based on what i'm pulling from my outlook on my work computer. i'll change the info though to keep things secure. this is what i'm asked for when i try to create the account and what i'm entering:
email address: firstname.lastnameATcompanyDOTcom
server address: two options here and i've tried both. the first is listed as the microsoft exchange server on the first window that comes up when i select the account: letters-letter22.ab.lettersDOTnet the second is listed under more settings > connection > exchange proxy settings: ab.lettersDOTcom
domain name: i'm not sure of this one but figured it was one of two things. the first would be what i type in before my username when logging in: ab-letters (so when i log in i type (ab-letters\username). the second would be the url for the OWA option which is: companymailDOTcom
username: again, i've tried two options one is just my username and the other is my full login as needed when logging into outlook or OWA (ab-letters\username).
password: password
and i've tried with both the ssl box checked and not checked.
that said, what am i missing or entering wrong? thanks for the help!

i tried the gmail option. said the server didn't allow for pop access.
use the address you use to access webmail. usually it's
owa.company.com
webmail.company.com
mail.company.com
if they don't allow MS ActiveSync I don't know what you can do.
if POP or IMAP is not an option, and the forward is not working (most companies don't allow that as a data leakage prevention) there is little to nothing you can do.
just weird they don't allow ActiveSync. you would read emails out of the office and become more efficient. very bad business policy.
when i log into OWA... the address is:
h t t p s :// w w w .companymail.com/OWA/
(sorry for the spacing... won't let me post urls)
will that not work?

Your Email:firstname.lastnameATcompanyDOTcom
Your Server: companymailDOTcom <-- most likely your OWA server
Yoru Domain: ab-letters <--- from ab-letters\username
Accountname: username <-- from username
password: password
That should be enough. Of coarse try the SSL option both ways.
Here.. When we deployed our exchange server this is how we setup the server.
The main 2 things you need to know is email server and active directory domain. For this example ill use:
Email Server: mail.company.com
Domain: company.com
So..
Email: [email protected]
Server: mail.company.com
Domain: company.com (in some cases, it can be left blank)
Username: myname
Password: pass
Depending on how things are configure, sometimes you may need to use company\myname as the username, but most times not.
Also, as I mentioned before.. It really depends on how things are setup. If the server admins don't allow activesync, your out of luck. Also, things like hub transport servers in the mix can effect how email is accessed as well. If your admins can't give you the info you need for this... Um, perhaps they need to find other work.

By domain, it looking for your PDC (Primary Domain Controller). Not your companies URL domain unless you somehow named your internal PDC the same thing.
This would be the part that he types just before his username during his authentication sessions.
Let us know how you fair.
tried every suggestion offered here. sadly, no dice. i get the same security warning i mentioned in my first email. given that my previous BB was NOT issues by corporate yet i was able to retrieve work email fine (through BIS of course), i can only assume that they've somehow managed to set up the system so that it doesn't work with anything other than BIS or BES.
looking for any other possible solutions/alternatives. as i mentioned before, the whole forwarding thing didn't work so unless there's another way, gmail isn't even an option. any thoughts?
All out of ideas for getting email and events pushed to your phone. You can use the HTC Sync App and do it at the desktop. Also the OWA client works great in the web browser.
Lastly, you can escalate internally, but I'd recommend writing up a small business case to demonstrate the benefits before you do so. They did that in my company and that got use away from having to use Good Link.
If you can get your exchange administrator to agree to allow Activesync connections for retrieving mail, you could use an app like Nitrodesk's Touchdown v5 (for 2.0 and above).
Been using it on my Droid and it's stable and reliable if a bit choppy when swapping inbox folders.
Hope that helps.

ya. i tried that one too just in case to i knew for certain it was on their end and not something with the phone. nice program.
sadly... no help. there's no way i'm going to convince them to do anything different than what they're doing now. when i say i work for a corporation, i mean i work for a CORPORATION. LOL. it's frikin huge with tons of employees, all over the world. that makes me a tiny little bug. LOL. when i made my call to IT they wouldn't even talk to me about anything email-cellphone related since i'm not high enough to even be considered for a corporate issued BB. LOL.
i do have one more chance. i can't remember what options are available in BIS, but my wife is going to take over my storm1 now that i have the new incredible. we're going in today to make the swap. my hope is that i can set my work email up in BIS as i did before but then auto forward it to a gmail account from within BIS. will be nice if i'm able to do this though it's still stupid that they don't let their frontline workers have access from their personal cellphones.
well, i made a bit of progress today. i still haven't connected yet, but after adding my account to BIS i was able to view the email server it uses to connect to the exchange server which is different from the one i was using before.
that said, i'm not getting that security msg i was getting before. now, though, i keep getting a message saying i can't be authenticated. i've tried lots of different options for the username to see if i could get in with no luck. any thoughts? i feel like i'm closer... but still so far away. thanks for the help!

Personally, I like the one built in to incredible more than the touch down app. I can see it all using the HTC widgets in Sense. Its very nice.
found a work around i thought i'd share. it's not great by any means, but it lets me view work email on my phone.
i setup a seperate gmail account just for work. then in outlook on my work computer i added the gmail account as an imap. then i created a rule to copy all incoming mail to the gmail inbox folder in outlook. this then syncs (obviously) with the gmail account and i pull the gmail to the phone through the native gmail app. it requires me leaving my computer at work on 24/7 but it's the only solution i could come up with for the time being.
Can anyone confirm if the incredible deals with the issues raised in this post ? code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=4475 e.g. remote wipe/Simple Pin request etc?
Thanks.
Can any one help me?
You just need to go into the mail app and set it up by putting in user and pass. Worked for me.

HTC mail app supports exchange push(Atleast on the Froyo version). P.S., gmail uses exchange for pushing e-mails(Its just standard exchange that is used by gmail).
And does Windows live mail support exchange activesync? When I stopped using it it only had POP3.
Yes it does, from August 2010, officially.
Use the following configuration -
Server: m.hotmail.com
Username: full email address
Domain: Leave this blank
SSL: Enable this
Certificate: Accept the SSL certificate when prompted
Mail, Contacts, Calendar, Tasks: All can be enabled
Enjoy

hey i tried this on the exchange activesync setting . tried to do it manually but it gave the error 'failed to create the account.try again later' . any help pls?
Does not work for me either. I've also tried putting "\" before domain/username like some have suggested. Has anyone succesfully got it to work with the Desire and the stock mail app? I've read some have got it to work with Droid, touchdown, stock Android 2.2 Mail app, etc. but nothing about the Desire.
I just tried with my Hotmail account and it just worked fine on my Desire.
I am giving a walk-through this time ok? I am using AOSP build, if you are using sense, follow accordingly.
1. Go to the Launcher screen
2. Tap on "Email" icon
3. Press Menu
4. Add account
5. Enter full Email address: [email protected] or [email protected]
6. Enter password
7. Tap Manual Setup
8. Choose Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync
9. Domain\Username: your full email address (example: [email protected] or [email protected]). DO NOT USE "\" in front of the email address. You are not in any Exchange server domain.
10. Your password is already filled in from Step 6, ignore it
11. Server: m.hotmail.com
12. Use Secure connection (SSL) - Yes
13. Accept all SSL Certificates - Yes
14. Tap Next
You should see a checking server settings message ... mine took around 3 seconds.
Account options window
Email Checking Frequency - Automatic (Push) [<- that is the whole reason you wanted this, right?]
Amount to sync - your choice
rest of the four option - totally your choice
Tap Next
Choose account color - your choice
Tap Next
Account Name: Hotmail or WLM (or whatever you want)
Tap Next
DONE!
If there's any question, let me know
Thanks for the walk-through.
I've been using POP3 for Hotmail as I didn't realise you could do this.
It works beautifully.
I keep getting a failed to create account.
using rooted stock htc sense rom. in the account setup i have an input box for both username and domain. do i need to stick my full email address in both?

Yes sh500 is right. It is a known HTC Mail issue with Hotmail. It just won't work
My office Exchange Mail works just fine.
And I found another thing. HTC Mail accepts only one Exchange mail.
Well, I was on AOSP build, push Hotmail works like charm, along with Google Apps push mail and my office Exchange mail.
Yeah, I'm going to move to a non sense based Rom...when I get the time to flash it. then I should be able to get push hotmail. its not something that's really bugged me so much, just one of the nice things to have!

By the way, it seems people are having good time with K-9 mail. It is available free in the market and has a 4.5 star rating. You may try that. It supports multiple Exchange account, and Hotmail push works.
I haven't tried it yet, can't comment on it personally.
thanks for your help that was great
Hey guys,
Anyone knows how to sync hotmail with the DHD email app? cuz when i delete mails from the DHD app, it doesn't touch the mail on Hotmail.
Thanks alot.
When you set up account use the following settings:
Type: Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync
Username: [email protected]
Password: yourpassword
Server: m.hotmail.com
Use SSL: Yes
That will sync fully with Hotmail including contacts/calandar (optional).
sorry but i think i did something wrong cause it din work. after setting up, i tried to delete a message from the mail app. however it did not delete from hotmail. after i delete via the mail app, i get a new email notification about the email i just deleted. sorry for the trouble but can i get more specific instructions? and how to delete the old account?
Thanks in advance.
Hi, I've just given this a try and I can get my hotmail account up, however a couple of things don't seem to be working correctly or differently from the pop settings I previously used for Hotmail:
1) Every time I open my email the screen is blank, it then populates the emails, it does this every time I go back in, it appears like it's re-downloading them, but I'm not 100% sure, when using the pop settings you enter email and the previously sync'd emails are still there.
2) the account keeps re-syncing even though I have the 15 minute option set up rather than the push email (I'll try this option later). Every time it re-syncs it blanks the inbox and re-populates it.
3) once re-populated I can read and delete emails, however after a few seconds (maybe a minute) it re-syncs and all emails are unread, and any deleted emails re-appear.
the settings i'm using are:
Microsoft exchange activesync,
email address: [email protected]
Server address: m.hotmail.com
Username: [email protected] <-- this defaulted to just X, I had to enter the @hotmail.com for it to work
Password, and left a tick in the "this server requires an encrypted SSL connection" box.
There was a box for Domain, but I left this blank.
I'll give push email a try and write again once I have.
I've just tried the push option, and it works a treat!
None of that re-syncing, and my inbox isn't blank / require re-downloading every time I go into my mail.
Deleting emails on my phone now deletes them from my hotmail inbox as well!
Thanks for finding the settings!
Hope this works as well for other people.

Push is the same as putting it on manual in the update schedule right? Trying to do the same on my live account as the i just noticed that new e-mails that i have read via my laptop are being sent to my phone as unread.
Username: [email protected]
Password: yourpassword
Server: pop3.live.com
