I have a really really awesome answer for you.
Don't setup your email anymore, just go here:
http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=138636
This will setup an Exchange-like server and will enable you to do that. At least I am pretty sure that isn't what you are already doing, because this will setup the email and sync Calendar, Contacts and Email with PUSH. Let me know if you need any help.
I dont think you understood the problem, but thanks for reading and suggesting something.
Part of the issue is resolved. We can now add to the calendar and it sends the email to those attendee's we add to that event, thru our gmail accounts. How i fixed that was going into the office folder and using the calendar link in there. In menu/tool/options, appointments page, there is a "send meeting requests via: (email account)". I just changed it from outlook email to our gmail account. So now it sends them out with the gmail account rather than sitting in the outlook outbox.
THE NEXT ISSUE is that when anyone sends you a meeting request, from outlook(pc) OR from the phones calendar thru gmail, if you recieve that request on the phone, there are no buttons to "accept/tentative/decline/propose new time", like there is in outlook pc. It just comes in as a regular email that looks very useless. The only way to accept or decline is to read the email in outlook on the pc where you have buttons "accept/tentative/decline/propose new time".

Actually, I did understand the issue.
You aren't setting the email up correctly. If it is showing up as Gmail, and not Outlook it isn't setup for Exchange. You need to remove that account and follow my link to setup Exchange features...
Im not following you on this exchange stuff. What does an exchange have to do with poutlook not showing an email with the same options as outlook on the pc?
ok i just set this up on phone. active sync on phone says attention required.
result: the config on your exchange server prevents you from sync'ing. please contact your serv admin.
BUT getting and sending email is working right. Syncing is working for email.
Creating a calendar event and adding attenees is not working at all now. The emails never go out. Sending an event to myself from my wifes phone somes into the phone the (no good). But comes into my outlook pc correctly
Setting up sync has its own issues. I sent an event from my phone to my wifes phone. Oh joy, i get an html page i can accept with on her imap email.
I accepted it on the wifes phone and it NEVER went onto her calendar on the phone. Which leads me to beleive she must have sync setup too. What a joke!!!!!
It would be so much easier if google mail would include the MS office option buttons for reading and responding to event emails.
Not only that, but now i have to create events either on the phone, or in google cal. I can not setup events in outlook and have them all sync UNLESS i pay and use google apps.
Google has a big problem with MS. If i send an event to a google account, if i read that event email in gmail, its also striped of any way to open or respond.
The way this works best if WANTING to use gmail and outlook, while still wanting to use outlook for events cal, is to only reply, respond or accept events within outlook on the pc.

You have to ONLY select Contacts, Calendar and Mail. Try that and let me know if you still get that Att Required... Also, if all else fails I can give you my email and we can test it that way.
When I get a new e-mail notification (hotmail set up through windows live),if I click on the notification, it takes me straight to the outlook inbox. Is there anyway to prevent this?
In my e-mail settings the check box that "displays account picker" is checked but that doesn't seem to help.
I'm looking to have the e-mail message or the corresponding inbox open, rather than having to select the notification, only to be taken to an empty inbox (I don't use the outlook inbox and in situations where it was set up, it would default to that inbox anyway)
Any help?
Thanks in advance.
*P.S. I've searched extensively for this issue, for the past few days and I haven't bee able to find anything. *
**P.P.S.* This only happnes when I get an e-mail notification, and I use the HTC notification manager to go to the "New Email", only to be taken to my Outlook inbox, vis the hotmail inbox (I only have hotmail linked on my device, no account is attached to outlook
Hey everyone,
Today i thought i might try setting up my Desire HD to sync with Hotmail via Exchange. Setup was easy as hell, just had to enter my e-mail adress and password, the rest was done automatically.
The Calendar syncs well, so do the contacts, but what bugs me is the mail client:
I like the fact that i can choose that attachments don't download, but here are my problems:
When i open an E-Mail on my Desktop, the mail gets marked as read on the Hotmail site and on my phone.
When i open a mail on my phone however, i go back to the list of mails. Then, the phone removes all messages from my phone and redownloads them. Now the mail i just read is marked as unread. Anyone know how to fix this?
Another thing: Is it possible to actually show all my E-mails on my Desire HD with the mail app? When it syncs it always shows X/285. Once x has reached 35 it stops. (i have more than 285 mails in my inbox).
Hope to find some help!
I use IMAP email client with any different folders and when i have a new message in a folder (not inbox folder) i can't get any email notifications.
I try any different email client (stock, k9, profimail) but i haven't found a way to get email notifications.
I can set up the different email folder for synchronization but i haven't got any notifications when the message arrive.
Anyone can help me?
I have a google apps email id from work. When i configure this id using the Corporate account (Exchange) option in accounts and sync (not as the GMail option), all messages and contacts get synced properly. But when i open any email i just get to see the sender the address list and the email subject. The actual email text in the mail does not get displayed.
Anyone faced this issue and got a way around it. I know i can configure the GMail app for this mail id, but wanted to make sure the native email app works since i have a couple of gmail ids already configured in the GMail app and do not want to mix this with other id's and miss my work mails.
no one with a reply ??
