reccommend an e-mail client/app (free) - myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games

Hi.
I've just got my magic from vodafone and it is my first smartphone.
I currently use windows live mail to access all my e-mail accounts (hotmail, gmail, yahoo) on my computer and i'd like something similar on my phone. Can anyone reccomend an app for this purpose which is free? I'm not too keen on the email app already installed on the phone and i was hoping for an alternative.
many thanks

Can't get hotmail to work.

I have tried to make a new account, but afterwards it just forwards to the hotmail homepage. I want it to work with the integrated Outlook. And in the live program I'm using another account than hotmail to msn, so it won't do any good to check sync with email, when it's another account. What can I do?
It needs the config information. The easiest way to do it is with Windows Live for Windows Mobile. Search for WLM here or PM me & I'll send you a RS link. You want 10.6.033.2100 BTW.
Actually, I think you're SOL if you're already using WLM for another account. POP email isn't available for Hotmail accounts, only for MSN accounts.
unless you pay and upgrade to the 19.99 a year, you will not get POP access to any hotmail account
So my only solution is to pay up, or it will not work in outlook on TyTN?
I have it configured on my normal PC with no problems.
I just installed seven and it works great. I asked the same question on another board today.

Isn't there a plug for Outlook anyway? If you wanted to, just install it from Microsoft.

And the seven solution for AT&T uses Xpress mail, which requires your Laptop to be On and Connected to the Network. What kind of crap is with the AT&T and Xpress mail?!
And good luck with the BETA program...

Okay, but can I install that link on my TyTN?
funny, i've never had problems w/ hotmail...... it's under windows live for my phone...
Okay, but my problems is, that when I log in to Live IM I don't use my hotmail account but another. Do you have a non hotmail Live IM account, and it still work?

What do you mean you login with another account? You have an IM account and another email account?
maybe pocket MSN will work for you
(http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/software/pocketmsn.mspx)
Any Windows enabled phone should come with the Live Messenger enabled.
On the MS web site, there a lots of apps
(http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/software/default.mspx)
The Windows Live app only allows for 1 Hotmail/MSN/Live accont to be signed in at once. If you have a separate ID/account you use for IM and another for email you will have to switch accounts back and forth. This will obviously be a huge hassle and not worth the effort.
I would recommend downloading another instant messenging app and using the Windows Live app for your email account. Unless you pay $19.99 /year you can not get Hotmail emails to work with the WM messaging clients without signing into the Windows Live app.
Hope that helps clarify things.
Yes it does But I would like to perhaps use Skype as voip and chat and IM as hotmail tjecker, but do I just install Skype or should I also be using some voip.cab to get it to work?
Thanks for your help.

True. However, I have gone on line & linked my Live & Hotmail ID's & have forwad set, so I get TWO accounts, one @live.com & one @hotmail.com accounts under one on my device.

Good call on linking IDs. I completely forgot that you could get your emails all in one inbox. The only problem I could see would be not having the right email address show up on messages you send from the phone.
Can you quickly describe how you linked them?

Alternative email client

Hi All
Does anyone know of an alternative email client for Wm6.1 ?
I've found a slight limitation with the outlook version and was wanting to checkout an alternative.
Any ideas ?
cheers
Steve
Search for Flex Mail 4 and LCG Profi Mail...
I've looked at flexmail several times, looking at the feature list and description of the software. I keep wanting to see something in it that I need or want, but I just can't find anything.
I use SEVEN now, and with the pocket outlook, it does everything I need. The only exception is ota sync with my work email, but that's more because of the way they handle things than limitations of my software.
Second that
Outlook + Seven = best email client and service

Android - Outlook program

i'm moving from Windows Mobile to Android.
However i cannot afford to lose all my contacts just because stupid Android doesnt synchronize with Outlook!
So i really need a link to a program that either:
1) Synchronizes one's Android 2.3 Device with microsoft outlook
2) Synchronizes one's outlook with one's Gmail account
the program must be free (one way or another ), i dont want to have to pay even more money for something google should have taken care itself.
thanks a looooooooot to anyone who can locate that program for me, cuz i tryed and all i succeeded in was to find hollow posts and a program that you need to pay for
It has nothing todo with Android or Google
Outlook is an Exchange client, and email client and a PIM (personal information manager), not a mailserver
Android's mail client and contactlists synchs with mailservers that can be reached online - like Exchange - if you dont use Outlook as an Exchange client but as a local PIM only it has no way of syncing with a PIM which is only a local database of information on your PC.
Synching between local PIM's and your Android device can only be done by software on your PC and its not Google's or Android responsibility to provide synching software for your PC for every kind of PIM that exist. This is the responsibility of either the PIM manufacturer or third partys, like phone manufacturers or others. In case of an LG phone synch software is supplied with LG PC Suite, install this and you will be able to synch between Outlook and your phone (not between Outlook and Gmail)
Exporting your outlook contacts to Gmail is very simple if you just want this
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/o...ook-contacts-to-google-gmail-HA001148902.aspx
I highly recommend you start using Gmail as PIM instead of Outlook - atleast if you want an Android/Google phone and integration with this.
Once you've set up Gmail on your device, I suggest you use the free Outlook Connector. It now supports office 2010 (although not the 64-bit variety). That way, your Outlook e-mail (assuming you use your Gmail e-mail either as Pop or IMAP within outlook) and calendar are synced.
Or, if you prefer the 64-bit flavor of Outlook, you can do what I did: I use this program called gSnycit (it's paid software, though) and I use it to merge my data between the Google cloud and my PC/desktop. It's really useful too; by using it, I have the same e-mail across multiple android phones and even my 4th gen ipod touch.

If you want to sync your MS Outlook directly without Google, there should three possibilities/applications which are available legally for free:
1) LG Sync (don't know where to get, pls look at the LG webpage)
2) MyPhoneExplorer (Here)
3) Funambol (Here)
Cheers

Outlook to Android synchronisation
There is quick developpimg official tool: Android-sync. (As well as I am new here, it is not allowed for me to post a link - so, just add dot com to the "android-sync" and you are there)
It is free, syncing well android with Outlook - not finished.
So far it is syncing contacts (without pics/photos) without any issue, and calendar.
Authors promise to complete this tool with notes and tasks - it started somewhen in this January having cca 3-4 weeks period for new version...
I use it without any issue
LG sync ?3 on stock mobile does this really well. I was also worried about thistoo, but I am syncing at home and work outlook contacts and calander via this. Its on your internal SD card. downloadable too i think.
thank you all for your support!
i consider my question answered

Default e-mail program

hi
i have this problem that android 2.2.2 default email program does not show inbox mail after some days. how i can to that, phone does not lose it and show so much time when i delete?
with 1.6 android (HTC Tattoo) i did not have this kind problem.
Same here, it shows only the e-mails of about 2 last days, it's configured to an exchange mailbox. Isn't enough of a issue for me to use alternate software. I heard that Moxier is good but it isn't for free, but there are definitly some nice free alternatives.
have anyone idea what is good replacement e-mail program and its easy to use and works like it should?
do a quick google search for the deafult android 2.2 email client, worked wonderfully for me
did you check settings->email-account->synchronisation periode???
yes, i have change all settings what i can. as i understand, default mail program holds in phone inbox only two days emails. after that older than two days are gone.
Default works good for me with my enterprise accounts.
I've gmail and yahoo accounts too, and I use their own apllications for good.
My gmail is fine, or try K9 mail..

Huawei email client

On trying to configure the built-in email client, the gmail setup errors with "unable to establish connection with server".
I have made contact with Huawei on the matter, and the response was that I had to install Gmail official app. That made me wonder what Huawei is doing with their email app. They have issued the app with a separate setup for gmail account connection, but it does not seem to work. And they recommend using a different app.
Do they not care to maintain their own app? And if so, this being their general attitude to problem solving is disappointing. And leaves an impression of a half-hearted effort in development.
Anybody having found a way to work around the issue?
I find using anything other than the Gmail app to manage my gmail a pain in the ass - not sure why you would want to use Huawei's app for Gmail. The Gmail app is way faster and better to navigate. In saying that, I do have 3 gmail addresses (2 google apps and the other Gmail) so I don't ever need a 3rd party email client.

I agree to using Gmail app, and its benefits. It just struck me that they have this issue and don't address it at all. They could at least have removed the option, as long as it is not working.

Hi guys, I just started using Huawei P10 a few days for work. I setup the email using huawei native client and I like it. But since last night, I notice I didn't received any email. I tried to send email to myself but the email didn't go through. I'm curious and check my email using my laptop. Then I saw few email came in.
Then I'm wondering what's happening here? I press sync few time but came out "Couldn't open connection to server".
I tried removing the email and perform setup again... didn't work either.
Has anyone got the solution why this happens?
I'm not saying the gmail apps is not good, but I prefer in that way. Almost like using outlook.
I have a few gmail/msn address, and they all worked well with native Huawei mail client. no problem.
I am using a BlackBerry z30 now, and I loved the blackberry Hub, is that something similar in android? and free is better, or one time purchase is ok,
