I am not sure if this is the right place to post this, but here we go.

My company uses Groupwise as their email system. Furthermore they refuse to enable POP or IMAP. We do have a BES server for Blackberry's and some mobile solution using Intellisync for WinMo devices.

The only solution so far (A horrible one at that) is to just forward all emails to my gmail account and my Nexus One can see them all.

Two problems.

1. They all come from me so I have to open every single email to see who it is from and what it is about.

2. I can not reply because it just replies to my Groupwise account (The account that forwarded the email).

I have been searching for days as to how I can accomplish this task. I am willing to dedicate a computer in my house that can poll Groupwise and IMAP that information to gmail if that is possible.

If anyone has any ideas, I would be very very appreciative. I will go to almost any means to get this done. I do not even understand my IT department. they said it is ok to forward all my emails, so why not open IMAP? Thanks in advance.

i once worked for a company that had similar email policies using Exchange. so, i signed up for @ $7/month Exchange account with 1 and 1 where i could manage email as if it came from my company account. since my former employer allowed email forwarding, i'd forward to my 1 and 1 account and use a feature that allowed my replies to appear as if they came from my company account. i'm not sure how it would work with Groupwise. oh yeah, i used my travel per diem to cover the monthly expense!
[Nexus One General] anosis:
I know this most likely wont be much help but I use lotus notes for example and I have a similar issue where I can't just directly access the account via IMAP or POP. Instead the LN client lets me setup a rule that resides on the server side that forwards the emails to my Gmail account. This has the benefit of preserving the sender (instead of your email address) and when I reply it will go back to the entire distribution list. The only drawback is that it still replies using your gmail credentials which may be bad if this is company mail.

So the rule has to be applied to the emails before they post in your account otherwise you get what you are already using which is forwarded notes from your inbox which will have your name as sender each time. Some rules will say :"When email arrives" then "Forward entire message body to:"...
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
Is GroupWise accessible from Exchange?

I don't understand; is there some other mail technology that is not POP, IMAP, or Exchange?
[Nexus One General] TheQue:
Yea that's my problem, Groupwise only has (on the client at least) "When email arrives". I am seriously hating this....

Que
[Nexus One General] TheQue:
Groupwise uses there own proprietary protocol.
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
Can you use Intellisync to sync with Outlook on your work PC and sync that with the N1?
[Nexus One General] TheQue:
Just to be clear, I can set up an auto forward rule in Groupwise to forward all mail to my gmail account. The problem is all the emails in the gmail account have a from "my groupwise account". Then if I try to reply to that email, it reply's To "my groupwise account". So technically I just have a huge annoyance issue I am trying to resolve here.

Here is what I have so far, but I do not know if it is even helping...

I found a Groupwise Connector for Outlook. This allows a dedicated computer at home the ability to have all of my Groupwise mail. Now that I have this dedicated computer set up that has all my emails in real time. I need some way of syncing them to Gmail. I have CompanionLink, but this just syncs my calendar, contacts and tasks... No email.

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tucka20:
Hi, I used to own a G1 but have got a hero (and I am proud). I always used A2SD with G1 because of the shocking storage, however I have been getting away with the amount on this for sometime now, Until recently, though, when apps have been getting bigger (20+mb for raging thunder).

Is the Hero the same as the G1, or am I able to remove the memory card that has A2SD (while the phone is switched off, i don't mind), put a different memory card in, and view images from that memory card (i put my digital camera card into phone often to send images) obviously with none of my apps installed, and then switch the phone off, put the original memory card back in, and carry on using apps like normal?

PS this is on VillainRom 4

Thanks

Bump..Anyone?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tucka20:
Can anyone help withthis? A simple Yes/No would do

Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] archivator:
Considering how Apps2SD works (basic symlinks), as long as you have an ext partition with the appropriate folders on both cards (at the same place, number-wise), you should be fine.

I would imagine the boot process probes /data/app and /data/app-private at some point - you just need to make sure those exist (even if they're empty).

If you've moved dalvik-cache as well, you will experience slowdowns when you switch cards.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:

Why don't you just try it? Seems a lot simpler way of finding out to me! ;)

Regards,

Dave
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cauli:
Here's a related issue.

Obviously with the OS relying on the ext partition, you shouldn't remove the sd card while the phone is on & certainly not while it's mounted (unless you want filing system corruption), but in my naivety I thought it would be ok to power down, remove the card & power back up. So similar to the situation the OP is asking about, only with no card, rather than a new card, present on the reboot.

Clearly your apps on the card are not going to work as they're gone & you might get some complaints as /data/app now links to a non existent directory, but I assumed:

1) Most things would work.

2) More importantly, I assumed if I then powered down, replaced the card & rebooted, I'd be back to where I started with fully working apps.

1) Turns out to be true.

2) Doesn't. After replacing the card I found most (though not all) apps resident on the card would force close at some point, often sooner than later. I ended up having to reinstall them.

Can anyone explain why/how this happens? I can only guess that when the phone was run without the card present, it changed the missing apps user data or dalvik cache in a way that broke them once they are brought back. Trouble is, I can't see what mechanism would result in such behaviour.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendong2:
have you tried wiping the dalvik-cache before booting up after reinserting the card?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cauli:
If you mean me, no. This was shortly after i got my phone & I was less comfortable experimenting. Plus at the time I didn't have a nandroid backup & reinstalling twenty odd apps put me off ;)

I'll give it a try shortly though. First as you suggest, & if that isn't enough, I'll try wiping the cache when the card is first removed too.

[Edit:] Nope, wiping Dalvik cache doesn't help at all. It seems if you attempt to run an Android install which utilises apps2sd without the sdcard present, something gets changed in the existing partitions on internal flash (other than the Dalvik cache) such that when the system is subsequently booted with the card present, app installs will have been corrupted leading to force closures & the need to remove/reinstall those apps.

Seems a shame. I'd have preferred an atomic means of relocating apps to sd, such that removal of the card means the system behaves as if the app had never been installed, with normal behaviour once the card is replaced. Ah well.

At least I used the chance to revert my ext4 partition to ext3 to avoid having to use tune2fs everytime I want to run a nandroid backup.

BTW For the record I should make clear this was all tested on a gsm Hero running MCR 3.2 with Amon Ra's RA-hero-v1.6.2 recovery.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phaelox:
Ha! Painful memories. Found this out the hard way as well. Wish I'd read more about how A2SD works (symlinks). In fact I wanted to swap while phone was on.

I tried wiping Dalvik cache as well as ext repair. Nothing helped.

Agreed, serious "flaw" in the A2SD way of things.

I used to employ ext4 for the /sd partition, then I read ext3/4 wear out your SD memory much quicker, because they are journaling filesystems (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext2), so I used the opportunity to repartition and stick with ext2.

When I had this happen, I too was on MCR 3.2, with Amon RA 1.6.2 or possibly 1.5.2 or 1.5.3.1.

[Touch2 General] undecideddragon:
Hey dudes

I've had my Touch2 for a few days now and I love it. One problem though that I can't figure out.

When I go to create a new SMS and start entering the initials of my contacts, it doesn't actually give me any of the contacts that show up on my Sim or on my Device. Instead, they're all people I deleted a few months ago.

Can anyone help me out? It's really bugging me.

Cheers,

Dragon

PS: This is my first touchscreen phone and I'm so scared I'll break it. Can you buy replacement screens? I've got a 3 year warranty from HTC but I'm terrified I'll drop it, crack the screen and that'll be it. I'm buying screen protectors today but I don't think a thin bit of plastic will be enough to ease my troubled mind
[Touch2 General] undecideddragon:
Can anybody help? Sorry to bump, but it's really annoying
[Touch2 General] undecideddragon:
Found out the problem by going into Sim card manager, just posting here to let anybody know how to fix it if they have the same problem.

I have an Australian SIM card - when I put my Sim in the Touch2 it added a space before each contact name so none would appear in contact search. I had to go through and manually delete every space before the contact name, but now it works.
[HD2 General] mZimm:
I'm considering switching from the G1 to the HD2 when it comes out this week because I'm ready for a new device. However all of my contacts are stored through google and not on my SIM or in Outlook. Is there any way to sync Google contacts with an HD2/WM6.5, or would I have to find an alternative way should I decide to take the upgrade?
[HD2 General] abmantis:
I have not tested it... but in activesync you can set it up to sync with m.google.com. I only used it for calendar so I cannot assure you that it will work...
[HD2 General] chris_ah1:
I use it for calendar, contacts, and email - all works splendidly. makes flashing new roms a breeze or even switching phones.

All i have to remember are my settings for cookies (which you can export), bsbtweaks, and S2U2. everything else is done.

you will have to find a way to backup your SMSes though. I have not imported my SMSes from my E65 to the HD2. But if you can put an SMS into MSMyphone or PIMbackup format you can restore them too.

[HD2 General] gsmtmofan:
You can also go to gmail and export your contacts as a CSV file, then just import into outlook, and when you plug you phone into your computer to sync it will download all of your contacts
[HD2 General] voxman99:
an app called "vcard expert" from the windows phone marketplace could be worth looking at.

all you need to do is export your contacts from google in a single vcard vcf file and stick the file on your HD2 - vcard expert will do the rest.
[HD2 General] zumbie01:

[HD2 General] DJGurth:
yes

yes this works with active sync. i went from a htc hero to the HD2 and it even took my Facebook links over with the contacts. sense to sense.
[HD2 General] BlackElvis79:
open ActiveSync
click "setup device"
where you enter email and password, click manual setup
"user name" is your complete email address
enter password
keep "domain" blank
"server address" is m.Google.com
click done
then select contact, mail, calendar...there is no task suppot so uncheck it
click done...then the "sync now" soft key

edit: i forgot, make sure SSL is checked also.

Also, maybe a MOD can put this in the tips thread if its not there already.

There is a "text messages" option...does this work? If so where are they saved? :confused:
[HD2 General] jornbjorn:
do you guys get the lastname first?
[HD2 General] chris_ah1:
text messages is only on com5 builds I think. I never had it on my stock ROM.

Also if you type in username@gmail.com or whatever your gdomain is then on COM5 the 'domain' box is grayed out. (cooked roms)

you must type m.google.com however on COM2 builds (stock)

what do you mean lastname?

It depends on how the contact sends their name in the email text.

TBH i am curious to see if SMSes work....but Myphone handles that for me well enough.

One thing that does irritate me is that mail sent from the HTC does not appear in sent items....I think that's why they put in the 'reply all'. With reply all it sends back to you, but with just reply I never see the message again until they mail back with it included inline.

I just used it to export alle my contacts from my HD2 to a group in Gmail i called 'HD2', and the they are pressent when i start Android on my HD2.

Go to AcitveSync on your HD2 and form the Menu choose 'Options' and delete the current server. Mine was 'Microsoft Exchange'.

Then set up a new connection that i the one shown i post #10.

It worked finde for me - thansk BlackElvis79 ;-)

no task manager for 6.5, how can we access the currently running process? like going back from sms to browser or to email? apart from hard key/soft key?

like in android you can press home then it turns out 6 latest running program?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] crites:
I just upgraded my Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 to WM 6.5 and have the following questions:

1) With WM 6.1 there used to be a pulldown button in the top right corner of the screen that would allow you to see what applications where running and to close anything that were no longer needed. This is no longer available in WM 6.5, can anyone tell me how to see what applications are currently running on my phone with WM 6.5?

2) With WM 6.1 when selecting my Favorite Contacts I was given an option to Call, email, text the person. Now with 6.5 it immediately calls the individual without giving any other options. Since I text most of the time this feature is really missed.

I'm sure these can be solved by changing some option in my phone, if anyone could help me out it would be appreciated.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cirrob:

well two things that can be fixed

1 . little drop down was the task manager so just install this program and itll be back

2 . when you click to add the contact to favorites select view contact card and that will give you the options every time you click on that person .
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] crites:
tseidel you are The Man!

I was just about to ask cirrob how to go back to 6.1 (not at all relishing reinstalling all my apps). cirrob bummer on you having to reinstall 6.1. :D

So tseidel does the cab just change a registry entry?

The Favorite fix isn't quite as slick as 6.1 but infinitely better than nothing.

Thanks again! :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] tseidel:
no actually it adds the old task manager thats y if you go to programs task manger it looks dif but its serves the same purpose
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] shawndh:
6.5 has many quirky issues. Of all the cooked ROMs I've tried, the official T-Mobile 6.1 was the fastest, most stable, most memory, and most functional of them all. I'm currently using T-Mobile 6.5 as it gets better battery life, location based weather (which I like) and is very stable, but has less RAM and ugly backgrounds.

But I also miss the option for two numbers available on each favorite, the old default keyboard (you had to use a stylus with), and the recently opened programs in the start menu. Now I have to scroll through a million icons if I can't fit the program on my prog tab.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DiAbLoxx83:
1- Install "Dutty's Task Manager" and you have back old button for task :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Fin9ers:
huh.....

Im running 6.5 and i have the task manager in top right....

go to settings->system->task manager->then one of the tabs. cant remember and phones battery dead so cant be bothered to find out.

its in the somewhere though
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mstevens:
This is unnecessarily complicated, since it forces you to choose the contact method every single time.

The correct solution is to do it exactly as in 6.1 and select the preferred contact method for each favorite. When you want to use a different method, tap on the grey name area below the contact picture instead of on the contact picture itself. That will pop up the contact card and allow you pick from among all available contact methods.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mstevens:
I'd be pretty surprised if you're running the official Sprint WM 6.5 ROM, from which this has, in fact, been removed.

It's not hard to install a replacement, but doing so is required in order to get the Task Manager back on this ROM.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] tshephard:

to tseidel also... I tried all the 'higher' numbered ones and none worked (on Rho SEA WM6.5 update) but this one!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] swaters3:
I use wk task manager which i found here on xda. it is great I am surprised nobody uses it. I covers the top bar and has little icons of all the programs running. you can click on it to open the program. or you can touch and hold and have a bunch of options. it will take a little playing around to figure out all the options. it also comes with a program launcher that you swipe the screen to bring up. I dont use that feature because I use spb mobile shell which has a great launcer that is completely customizable.
