[HTC Excalibur] Big_O:
A simple and reliable solution that I have been using, due to the lack of support from t-mobile and unrealiable outbound smtp from about 5 providers, was to finally use gmail.

This may sound silly, but gmail does not use the default ports that may be blocked from cell providers, but port 465 for smtp and 995 for pop.

Gmail can "go get" other email accounts. You can also mask the gmail address by a real address in the settings.

Been using gmail for weeks on smtp and pop through t-mobile without one failed attempt.

Sure beats checking mail from the web browser :)

no content, can't write

I have a HUGE problem with the Kavana's ROM WM6.1.

After setting properties for email-accounts: 2 with pop3 and and 1 with imap. Now i only get the header messages, if i want to reply, i only see emty fields to, subject,... I can't write any text and see no content.

If i click on 'edit sender's message', opera mini is started, the text copied is

Inbox:IframeHandler editmsg. So therefore opera cannot open the site, of course.

If i want to send a new message, i can't write any words, too. Very strange!!!

With the original WM6 i didn' t have any problem with email-accounts. I could receive and send mails with my original HTC S620.

For information: I only use wifi (wlan) to connect to the internet.

Please help me!

Thanks.

hello everyone,

I jsut noticed the thread and got through pretty much all of the posts. I am still running the Stock TMo Rom and would like to add that I notice I only have the SMTP issue when the the Incoming and Outgoing servers are different companies. I too have been in the industry for many years working for a major manufacturer, so I have to play with settings all day long on mulitple devices let alone my own.

Example:

Mailbox 1: Bright House

Incoming Server: pop-server.tampabay.rr.com

Outgoing Server :mail.mydomain.com

All settings are correct but will not send through WiFi or Tmo Internet $19.99 plan. Again yes I know what the correct settings are and the UN & PW settings have been done correctly.

Mailbox 2: My Domain

Incoming Server: mail.mydomain.com

Outgoing Server: mail.mydomain.com

Settings work fine on TMo Internet or Wifi

If I put the same mailbox 1 settings in any other device, MDA, Nokia xxx, Moto xxx... They work fine.

Hope this helps.

Removing the account helps (but not permenant)

Following tips from another site (forum on Microsoft's site), I fixed it by removing the account and setting it up again. I know it used to work, so it's just the app somehow got corrupted over time.

Any good IMAP clients for WM 6.1? I still have to use this for my Hotmail Push, but for my Gmail I am willing to go for a diff. program.
[HTC Excalibur] donschmidto:
Hi there,

I am having the same problem and it seems to have everything to do with wm6.1 ignoring any port instructions for whatever reason. My providers smtp listens alternatively on port 587 and if I could force wm6.1 to send on this port I am pretty much sure that it would work. So heres my question: Is it possible to enter the smtp port somewhere directly into the registry of wm?

I have an IPAQ 910c here but encountered the same problem on two other wm devices.

Thank you for your help.

RGDS,don
[HTC Excalibur] Cyberflow:
Hi there ...

Me too i have the same problem and all the same "symptoms" has the other members have said.

I'm with fido tought ...

Here is a page that can confirm that the problem is the Windows Mobile 6.1 rom :

http://www.tracyandmatt.co.uk/blogs/index.php/2008/09/18/windows-mobile-6-1-smtp-issues

The question is, is there a fix for the rom available here ?
[HTC Excalibur] gasman858:
Thanks swyft -

I've spent way too many hours trying unsuccessfully to solve this.

I anxiously await your next missive.

I just wonder why this isn't happening to more users.
[HTC Excalibur] ButtonBoy:
One fix

Not sure about all the ROM variants out there, but I am using the official AT&T 6.1 image, and this worked for me. Perhaps somebody smarter could make a cab of this...

1. Add the reg key “Operator” to \\HKLM\System\Inbox\Settings

2. Add the reg key "OutgoingServer" below Operator key.

3. Add the reg val (reg_str) "OutgoingServer" below Operator key- “ButtonBoy rules”

4. Soft reset

After doing this, all the emails left my SMTP Outbox arriving at their destination inboxes.
[HTC Excalibur] iliew:
ButtonBoy's registry fix worked for me! Thanks!! Though I don't have a clue as to why it works!? I am on HTC Touch Diamond WM6.1 ROM 1.93

People from other sites are coming here who are not familiar with registry editing, so some help for you:

1. Install a registry editor such PHM Registry Editor. http://www.mydigitallife.info/2007/...editor-in-windows-mobile-5-and-6-wm5-and-wm6/

2. Use it to edit the registry according to ButtonBoy's instructions. \\HKLM\ refers to \\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\. His step 3 means "add a registry value (string) to \\HKLM\System\Inbox\Settings\Operator\ and this registry value has the name "OutgoingServer" and it's Value data is "ButtonBoy rules". Of course you can put something a different Value data there instead of "ButtonBoy rules" too! :)
[HTC Excalibur] ButtonBoy:
The CAB

Here's a cab file for those who don't want to party on the registry themselves.
[HTC Excalibur] gasman858:
Thanks for this ingenious fix - it seems to be working. I tried sending emails in a weak signal area and got the (appropriate) send time out multiple times, but it hasn't killed my account yet - a major improvement.

I did get some feedback from an email recipient - he said he got 3 copies each of single-send emails I sent him, so there appears to be a bug in confirming the send - even though the email reaches the smtp server it is not confirmed to have done so and remains in the outbox to be sent again (and again). Hopefully this is not a widespread bug and just some screwup with my phone.
[HTC Excalibur] iliew:
Second day with ButtonBoy's registry fix - email stable and working. No multiple delivery problems like gasman858 reported, though I have gotten that in the past so I think it's just an occasional problem especially with weak signals/connections. For the string value I used "smtp.myserver.com" instead of "ButtonBoy rules". Seems to work faster/better but could be my imagination...
[HTC Excalibur] Joe USer:
Actually, you might be right, if the phone is trying to lookup 'buttonboy rules' as a mail server it might take a few seconds compared to an actual domain that doesn't have a MX record.

Setting it to 127.0.0.1 might be the best solution, as there will be no DNS lookup and it should fail immediately.
[HTC Excalibur] pridesworn:
it works!

buttonboy, you truly do rule. i've had this problem since sept. 30th, after being good with 6.1 for about 3 weeks. been trying everything. i was surprised not to find a solution here--thank you for sussing it out!!

for everyone's reference, i'm on kavana's rom, the final version 080408, i think, whatever was current on sept. 12th. hope that helps.

SMTP Patch Works / Anyone have problem Folder sync?

The patch worked s great, any one having proble with exchange folder sync?

I'm using Samsung black Jack II I617
[HTC Excalibur] sipospeter:
buttonboy, you're my true hero! :D

the strange thing is that i can can tell you that this hole smtp bug is not only with 6.1 devices. i have a htc polaris since june with the official htc wm 6 rom which i use with a gmail account and never experienced this problem until yesterday. i started to investigate throughout the whole internet and first i thought that the problem is with my cellphone carrier as i'm at vodafone who are famous about not letting users to use other smtp servers only theirs through gprs internet. i signed for vodamail to have access for their local smtp server but it didn't help so i had to search for something else. then i found this thread and your cab and it seems that it fixed the problem.

once again: i use official wm6 rom, i never ever upgraded to any official or cooked roms, did hard reset only once since june (this happened a few weeks ago) and never experienced any problems with sending e-mails before. so this problem is not only with the 6.1. strange...
[HTC Excalibur] zkyevolved:
strange... it worked for me ONCE and then it stopped working... hmm...
[HTC Excalibur] carlisle:
My friend and myself have a TYTN II phone with Windows Mobile 6.0 and both have this exact same issue regarding sendings emails that have attachments.

So far, no fix has worked consistently.

Every now and then we get a glimpse of hope when an email with an attachment may send...but then it just stops all over again!!!

Apparently Three Australia are trying to fix this from their end.

Still waiting for feedback.
[HTC Excalibur] zkyevolved:
instead of adding gmail manually, I added them through mobisync and that fixed it. Since it's through activesync it hasn't given me any problems. Let's see how ti works :)
[HTC Excalibur] mattsternc:

Tried the MS fix a little while ago, totally ineffective (at least for me) even after deleting and rebuilding my Yahoo! IMAP account in Messaging. ButtonBoy's CAB fix works, tho, so far. First time I've been able to send email since I had to do a hard reset on my Dash last week.

So, ButtonBoy, THANKS (so far)!

Sick, thanks, the cab works great. I was really bummed about this for a long time and now I can send emails out again.
[HTC Excalibur] mistertek:
Can sort of send

After installing ButtonBoy's fix, I can send if I type the address. I cannot send or reply to a message that includes someone's name.

example.

someone@someplace.com *works (I type the address)

"Some One" <someone@someplace.com> *does not work. (I choose name from contacts or reply to a message from someone that has their name with their email address)
[HTC Excalibur] kaarstmobile:
I have this same issue with my Gmail account. Works fine for a few days (Either IMAP or POP3) and then all of a sudden - I can't send emails.

This may help - this only happens with one of the two gmail accounts. Not always the same one - but only one at a time. And - only after upgrading to WM 6.1.

Perhaps there is something on the email providers side happening? Maybe because I am logging into two different accounts via the same IP address? I don't know. Not a big deal to me though.

"Cannot connect to the outgoing mail server."

Hey.

I installed MS fix, it didn't help. Then I installed ButtonBoy fix and the error changed into "Cannot connect to the outgoing mail server. Be certain that the server name is correct, then try again to send and receive mail.". It worked fine until today, the settings should be fine and fixed didn't help.

What should I try next? I really need to get this fixed..
[HTC Excalibur] LiverpoolFCfan:
Maybe call your ISP to see if they have a temporary email issue ?
[HTC Excalibur] mickeh:
The outgoing port of the device is the issue

Hello guys..

The problem is caused by the isp you're using. Sometimes the block the windows mobile defualt outgoing mail port "25" to use exclusively for their own emailservers. (I assume the send problems doesn't occur on your isp:s email?) .. Some device manufacturers change this port to something else, but since windows mobile email client doesn't allow you to specify the outgoing port, you're screwed as soon as your isp is changing this. To be one the safe side, ask your emailprovider to enable port 587 on the email server and then use a registry editor to change the outgoing port of your device.
[HTC Excalibur] mickeh:
the best way

Actually there is a very quick fix for the problem.

1. Delete the email account in question (wm can't take modifications)

2. Enter the information again but this time add your desired outgoing port after the regular outgoing mail server.

For example.

auth.smtp.telia.com:587 (587 is the default "extra" port enabled on most webservers).

3. Now it will work , (allow for some extra time the first time you try).
[HTC Excalibur] Nylo:
So far none of the above works. What do you mean by, "allow for some extra time the first time you try." So far I keep getting the outgoing error.
[HTC Excalibur] ryaske:
heyguys .. i havethsi same problem on my htc touch pro (at&T fuze)

I am using the Elite RC3 rom

when I try to apply the fix cab from microsoft, it tells me that "this cab is only made to work with windows 6.1 your version is windows 6.1 (build XXXXX)"

Is there anyway to force the update?? The PC version does the same thing

And the reghack did not fix the problem. GRRRRR

[HTC Excalibur] Nylo:
Solved... WM6.1 STMP Bug.

I fixed it.

Im with Comcast but another ISP hosts my domain and email.... Hence I never sign in to my Comcast account. It then dawned on me that I had not applied my Comcast user name and password (different from my host ISP) to my out going SMTP "security and authentication" in WM6.1 email. After I did that all went well.

PS. I did apply Button Boys STMP WM6.1 fix before which didn't work. After I did the above I doubt Ill tempt fate by uninstalling it.
[HTC Excalibur] ryaske:
HEY , i got mine to work.

First, I mis-interperted the buttonboy fix. I created two string keys, one blank one named "Operator" and another one named "OutgoingServer" which I set to AT&T's stock smtp server.

BUT THEN I realized that I should be creating a new BRANCH called Operator, with one string key "OutgoingServer" set with AT&Ts default smtp server. (Just like with some ISP's, you might have to use your cellular provdiers default SMTP server regardless of what your email accounts real smtp server is.)

Once I did that, my original settings started working! Clearly my ISP was not allowing me to connect to my "real" smtp server over SSL (which is required), and since no default was set in the registry, I received the "could not send message" error. Once I set the proper default to fall back on, it didnt matter what I set in pocket outlook, my phone would use the "valid" value in the registry.

So, do look into a default smtp value from your cell provider and try that along with the button boy fix.

that might just work for you like it did me. (My phone is HTC Raphael as AT&T Fuze with Elite RC3 rom)
[HTC Excalibur] mickeh:
are you sure your email provider has enabled the outgoing port you are using?

allow for some extra time the first time means that process stops on "logging on" for about 30 seconds before the "send and receive" starts... and then this process could also be delayed for about a minute or so.. but you should not get any send receive error message, then the port you've stated after the outgoing server name is not enabled on your email server.. try to use a pop3 account from your isp and see if that works, if it does you know it's nothing wrong with your device.. ask them what alternate outgoing port you can use, then notify your webserver admin and ask him to enable this port.
[HTC Excalibur] ryaske:
fwiw im using gmail .. lucky i got mine to work cuz theres no web server admin that can be contacted!!
[HTC Excalibur] cnewtonne:
Yet, another fix for this nasty issue...

Just like most of you, this issue has been very upsetting for me.

- I have 3 gmail accounts set up on WinMo 6.1

- I send on average 30 email per day total.

- On a daily basis, some 3-5 emails refuse to send. I get 'Can't send ... check your freak'n network settings".

- Once one of these 'bad' msgs gets into the outbox, nothing gets sent any more. I have to go through my outbox one msg at a time and delete the offending one. Once gone, I can send again.

- All these sending failures affect msg forwarding/replying.

- I applied MS cold fix KB958639, no luck.

- The Mat&Tracy fix, useless.

- So far, I collected about 10 emails that I know for sure won't send. Am keeping them for debugging purposes.

After wasting countless hours on this, I think I narrowed down the issue to the way outlook mobile (OM), handles original msg body when forwarding or replying.

- The option to include original body when replying is enabled.

- So, I grabbed one of these bad msgs and indented each line in the original msg body with a single space, it WORKED. I was able to send it.

- I repeated above with all 10 msgs and all sent fine.

- On my version of OM (Sprint Treo800 release), there are not options to enable the option of indenting original msg body or specifying the leading character to use. However, I did see these options available on the newer releases of OM e.g. Sprint Treo Pro.

- Digging deep down into the registery, I found these keys

- AddLeading

- IndentBody

- LeadChar

However, I set all to 1, but I did not see these changes having an effect on OM. Original msgs are not indented.

This is where I stand today. I'm absolutely mad and angry at Microsoft for inflicting such horror on us. Any way....

If some one can test the above and help me out implement the registery settings successfully, we may have a resolution here.

Thank you.

i have a Tmobile Wing and I've flashed to the clear blue ROM. without any fixes, email was running perfectly until one day, I stopped receiving emails. I could send them but not receive them...I deleted each account and set it up again...worked fine for a day. It's been over a week and I'm still trying to fix this problem. I did the registry tweaks that button boy provided...I can now send email but when I am receiving email, new emails will display but once my phone disconnects, the emails disappear. Can someone help me figure out what is going on???
[HTC Excalibur] karelj:
For what it's worth, I encountered a similar send mail issue with the gmail account I have on my phone. What eventually worked worked was that I went into the mail accounts settings an changed how it connected from "The Internet" to "Work".

I then tried to send mail and got the expected "Network" error message. I then changed it back to Internet and it started to work again.

Of course your milage may vary, but it's worth a shot.

Nada

I've got a Sprint HTC Touch with OEM rom on it -- 6.101

The MS patch failed. The TM patch failed. Deleting / re-adding / renaming, etc. all failed. Configuring the port failed. Changing the connection type from Internet to something else and then back failed.

Run my own mail server, so I enabled SMTP Submission port 587, re-added a new account specifying that alternate port in the outbound smtp server field instead...that too failed.

Have tried every fix I've been able to find, but none are working. Sounds like I may not be the only one.

Microsoft is a joke. The bug causing issue is an even greater pathetic joke.

[HTC Excalibur] zink23:
Had been having the same problem on an HTC Touch Pro (in fact Era MDA Compact IV) and Windows Mobile Pro 6.1 (Polish version).

Had tried all the deleting and creating accounts to no avail.

Then tried installing the official MS hotfix KB958639. (English language only).

Didn't seem to work at first.

Tried deleting and re-creating an account with a new and different name to the old account.

Still didn't work.

Then in line with what someone said above: Tried deleting and re-creating an account with a new and different name to the old account .... AND, PRIOR to attempting any send/receive with the newly created account, adding the correct custom port to the end of my SMTP server name (in my case :2525).

AND (fingers crossed, touchwood, etc.) at least for now...IT WORKS!! (It connected, displayed a message about the server's certificate being incorrect, I told it to proceed anyway and the message was sent no problem)

The key seems to be to avoid it attempting and failing to send/connect to the SMTP server ... even once.... because once it has failed once for that server it may never be able to send mail on that account again.

Confirmed: indented each line in the original msg body with a single space, it WORKED

I've tested this, and it worked on a TyTN II WinMo 6.1. Indented by using one space per line, then just erased the lower part of the original message (it was too long to test).

Thanks for sharing, cnewtonne.
