Cannot Set Up Exchange Account in Windows 8/8.1 Mail App - Need to turn off SSL

Hi there,
The office I work at is currently running an Exchange 2003 server for mail, and for reasons unknown, it isn't using an SSL certificate.  That will
be changing some time in the near future, but as a result, I can't set up an email profile for this Exchange account on the Mail app.  On all the various phones I've had (I've used all 3 major mobile platforms), I've been able to uncheck "Use SSL"
in the initial setup settings, or upon failure to connect to the mail server, save the profile I set up, and uncover more settings after saving that allowed me to turn off SSL.  This isn't the case for the Windows 8/8.1 Mail app.  I can't turn off
SSL for Exchange in the initial setup part, and I upon failure to connect to the server, cannot save the mail profile.
Don't get me started on Outlook 2013...our server is too old for it and therefore incompatible, which somewhat unforgivingly bricks the program and requires a multi-step repair...
So is there any way to fix or get around this SSL setup issue (other than the obvious solution of our IT guys putting on an SSL certificate)?
Thanks!

Hi
I have seen exchange 2003 not working well with the windows 8.1 mail app. generally you would install the cert from exchange 2003 on your pc and mail should work...

    once you set up a account for data service and just want one month service, how do you cancel after the month

    Hi Glenrose,
    That would be between the you and the carrier that you have the contract with. In the past, I was able to purchase only one month of service from AT&T. Not sure what carrier you have or what contract you have, but you would have to cancel it with them.

  • How can set up exchange account in outlook 2011 manually?

    I can't set up exchange account in outlook 2011 automatically. who can help me out?
    and how can know whether the account has been added successfully?

    If you can't add it automatically, you probably need some help from your company's helpdesk.  It would be best to contact them because they may have some settings that are specific to their environment.

    An Exchange account is an e-mail account serviced my a Microsft Exchange server... Typically a corporate e-mail account. It used to be possible to configure a free gmail account as an Exchange account, but it is no longer possible to set one up that way.

  • How do I set the "reply to" field in the iPad 2 Mail app?  I use an email forwarding service (not an actual email account) that I would like people to reply to.

    How do I set the "reply to" field in the iPad 2 Mail app?  I use an email forwarding service (not an actual email account) that I would like people to reply to, so setting up an account with the correct reply-to address doesn't work because there's no associated outgoing mail server.  I had this working under iOS4 but it seems to have disappeared when I upgraded to iOS5.

    Welcome to the forum, NicoleYM. I don't think the Touch Mail has as many options as the Mac Mail app. However, you could set a standard signature. Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Signature. There you can type a reply address and hope people see it.
    Alternatively, you can go to your GMail account in your web browser and click on Settings > Forwarding and POP/IMAP. There you will have an option to forward all emails (or only some, if you set up a filter) to your other address.
    Good luck!

  • I cannot use ITV player, it says I need to turn off ad blocking - how do I do this? It only began after latest update of Firefox installed.

    I have tried to watch programmes on ITV player, which I have successfully done in the past, but now it tells me it cannot find the video and that I need to turn off ad blocking on my computer. I went into options, but could not find anything about ad blocking. I added www.itv.com to the exceptions list for pop up windows, but this has not helped. The problem only began after the latest update of Firefox was installed. I have never had any problem before. How can I get ITV player back, please.

  • TS3899 Hotmail account not working in iPhone 5 mail app

    At first I thought it was a COS, College of the Sequoias,  as in the college I'm going to,  Hotmail situation BUT  it turns out it's a Hotmail in general situation because my other Hotmail account doesn't show my inbox or sent mail at all. I sent up my Hotmail account properly, go to it on the mail app, click on it and the inbox is empty. So is the sent box. Go to hotmail on the browser..there's all my mail! Just not in my Hotmail account in the mail app! I tried to set  my Hotmail account on Jennifer's iPhone 4S.. No luck. Same thing happened when I tried on mum's iPad!
    The strange thing is my COS hotmail account WAS set up on their BEFORE then iOS6 update just flawlessly. I get my iPhone 5 and decide to delete my email accounts from the iPad now that I have my phone. When hotmail decided to go all wonky I tried resynchronize my COS hotmail on the iPad again because I know it worked there. But I had updated the software since then. Thus it not working now!
    My gmail and yahoo accounts  are working flawlessly on my mail app however the Hotmail..not so much! I've been doing some research on the net..could the update be the problem?? If so, I can't wait for the iOS 7 software update!

    Same here.  I, too, have tried everything, including removing and re-adding the Hotmail account and SMTP servers, rebooting, you name it.  Some folders seem to sync sometimes, but some do not ever.  The main inbox does not sync at all.  In addition, the problem seems to be strictly with Apple Mail on my iMac and MacBook Pro.  The issue does not occur on my iPhone 6 or iPad Mini.  I was very pleased with Apple Mail until now.

  • HT1349 I need to turn off the "find my phone" feature on my iPhone 5.  The company I worked for took back their iPhone and now I cannot receive texts on my new LG F6 phone.  Can I do this w/o the serial number?

    I replaced my iPhone 5 with an LG F6 phone and now I cannot receive text messages from my friends with iPhones.  Can somebody please tell me where to go to turn off the "Find your phone" feature and what ever else I need to turn off to accomplish this objective?  Thank you.

    Find My iPhone has nothing to do with receiving or not receiving text messages.
    What you should have done is turn off iMessage prior to handing over the device.
