Can't connect to download emails.

I'm trying to configure my O2 XDA IIs to dial the office via a VPN connection so that it can sync emails with Outlook. It tries to connect firstly GPRS then the VPN, but I keep getting the error:
VPN server problems. Verify your username & password and try again.....
I've verified it 100 times now! Can some one suggest what I'm doing wrong?
Here are my VPN settings:
IP: 202.76.xxx.xxx
VPN Type: PPTP
Username: <MyDomainUsername>
Password: <MyDomainPassword>

WM6 and OWA / Exchange

Trying to configure OWA access through GPRS with WM6 here with difficulty. Have browsed the forums and many people have the same issue. It is not a problem of certificates because I do get access through Internet Explorer. The problem is that the " /exchange " termination is automatically deleted from the server address necessary for the connection to my OWA.
Is there any way I can cheat WM6 to leave /exchange at the end of the server address ?
Thanks.

Same issue
I'm also having the same issue as you. So far I have had zero luck using activesync on my WM 6.1 device. I haven't found any 3rd party software that will work either. I find this rather hard to believe since the Palm OS has Chattermail++ that lets you sync multiple exchange server email accounts on the same device, and that's been working for years. Surely someone has found a solution to this?

After days of hard work with Exchange 2007 i figured out how to synchronize with exchange account
First my scenario
Internet<----->ISA 2006 server <---->Windows 2008 DC+Exchange 2007
[email protected] is my mailbox
windows 2008 FQDN: server.domain.local IP address: 192.168.1.254
Internal Isa server FQDN: isa.domain.local IP address:192.168.1.1
Internet FQDN exchange.domain.com
To works everityng fine i have to do a lot changes in the systems
1.Create a new Certificaet Template from WEB Server templates and add option to that cert to "Export Private key"
1.Generate request with "New-ExchangeCertificate" command in Exchange 2007 shell - you can use this site https://www.digicert.com/easy-csr/exchange2007.htm
1.1.In common names field add server.domain.local,server,exchange.domain.com,autodiscover.domain.com,autodiscover.domain.local and etc.
1.2.Create the new certificate in the local Certificate Authority from generated earlier request
1.3 Install the new cert in Internet Explorer .Export the certificate With "Private Key"
1.4 Install the certificate in >mmc>certificates>computer certificates>Personal
Iport the new certificate with import-exchangecertificate command
1.5 Add CA root certificate in Trusted root certs in the same console
1.6 Repeat steps 1.4 and 1.5 at the Isa 2006 server
2.At your local DNS server create a new Host A record for
autodiscover.domain.com > 192.168.1.254
3.Open ISA 2006 console and create Exchange publishing rules for Active-Sync
3.1 Create a new listener on port 443 with Basic Authentication and select the right certificate which you create at point 1.2
4.Create a new DNS HOST A record in your external DNS server for
autodiscover.domain.com > Your external IP address
5 Install Root CA file on HTC device
Open HTC and try to enter [email protected] and password for the exchange accout
Cross you fingers and wait ,if everithyng works fine your mail client will automatically configure itself
If there is an error you have to investigate
Common errors:
1.You do not have the correnct certificates on Device or there is an error in ISA configuration - YOu must have root ca cert installed on device
2.Autodiscover is not working -missconfigured dns records
How to test connection:
from any browser in or out the organization you have to open https://autodiscover.domain.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml with no Cert error.
The main diference between exchange 2007 and 2003 is that that by default
Web applications on iis 6 in exchange 2003 are working on http
To access securely Active Sync you must use SSL - https protocol.That is wy we create some cerficates earlier.
If there is any error with autodiscovery function-a you should add server in Outlook mobile not with the https:// address but with FQDN name only
Ot server just add: exchange.domain.com and check SSL option.
There are many toutorials how to install Exchange system and in every toutorial the most important is how to create Certificates.
That scenarion is with local CA in the organization.
Good luck .

Have an issue with IT Admin blocking ActiveSync (organization has standardized on BlackBerry).
Am using the Emoze (www.emoze.com) client to retrieve mail. It retrieves mails on your device using OWA, instead of ActiveSync.

[Q] Someone is trying to access my account

I am constantly getting emails from XDA that someone is trying to log into my account. Some douche with the ip: 93.218.42.61 is trying to access my profile.
What to do with this?

hahaha they have a default IIS7 running... and it looks like a pptp server(vpn)
Code:
Nmap scan report for p5DDA2A3D.dip.t-dialin.net (93.218.42.61)
Host is up (0.036s latency).
Not shown: 998 filtered ports
PORT STATE SERVICE
443/tcp open https
1723/tcp open pptp
And they are german because the 404 page is in german.
https://93.218.42.61/asdfasdfs

prolly a robot being used as a proxy.

@Outlook.com email

I just snatched a outlook email, and I was trying to sync it to the native email client and for reason it doesn't work. Has anyone else had this problem?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app

Oh yes, I spent over an hour online trying to make that work, and even called up my school's tech support desk. No luck.
I tried on the droid email app, another one I can't remember, and k-9. I couldn't make it work. I eventually synced it to my gmail, tagged all the mail coming in TO that address into it's own folder with a filter to bypass inbox, they have settings and whatnot for all that, you'll also be able to send email as that email address without logging into outlook. I haven't tried that last part on the native, I've just been using k9. It's like I have two separate email addresses in one app,

I have a hot mail alias still in outlook dunno if it matters but I used under domain \[email protected] and for server m.hotmail.com which the email app changed to snt-m.hot mail.com.
Also this is configured as exchange.
Anyhow its working.

ok, here is the solution.....
Add email account
First type in your new renamed email address : emailaddress @outlook . com and password : your password.
Hit next and select POP.
Now follow the settings below.
Incoming settings:
username: emailaddress @ outlook . com
password: your password
pop3 server: pop3.live.com
port: 995
security type: SSL/TLS
Delete email from server: never
Outgoing Settings:
SMTP Server: smtp.live.com
Port: 587
Security Type: STARTTLS
Require Sign-in: YES
Username: same as username above
Password: same as above
VOILA !!!!
hit "thanks" if it works.., its free

Actually I have a vpn server IP address and that's what is in the server field of the vpn connection. I do not have a domain name.
