Hotmail on iPhone Or ipod touch mail app!!!

Hey people. Im only making this post to help people out. After a lot of research and a lucky unxpected find, i discovered a way to access your hotmail account on your maill.app
First you need to sign up for a GMX.com mail account (completely free, and EXCELLENT)
Then once inside, you need to add a mail collector account, suck as your hotmail
(The mail collector feature in GMX accesses your Hotmail account and downloads your email messages into the mail collector folder inside of your GMX mail account.)
(Inside the iphone mail app, once you set up your gmx account to work with it, you will have access to a folder that is named: "Mail Collector" and inside will be all of your hotmail emails.)
After you have signed up for a GMX email account, here is how to configure it with the Mail app:
1. Under Settings, select "Mail", "Add Account", "Other", then "IMAP" or "POP" and use the following settings:
Name: enter your name
Address: your full GMX email address
Description: GMX
Incoming Mail Server
Host Name: imap.gmx.com (when you're using IMAP) or
Host Name: pop.gmx.com (when you're using POP)
User Name: your full GMX email address
Password: your GMX password
Outgoing Mail Server
Host Name: mail.gmx.com
User Name: your full GMX email address
Password: your GMX password
Advanced
Use SSL: Off (SSL only works with incoming not going, but to be sure, turn it off for both)
Authentication: Password (both incoming/outgoing)
Server port: 110 (incoming) and 25 (outgoing)
If you selected to use IMAP, you can map iPod Touch folders to GMX IMAP folders. Test first if the default mapping works before changing anything.
To change the mappings, got to Settings>Mail>GMX.
- Select "Advanced"
- Select "Drafts Mailbox" and set it to "On the server > [GMX] Drafts"
c. Select "Sent Mailbox" and set it to "On the server > [GMX] Sent Mail"
d. Select "Deleted Mailbox" and set it to "On the server > [GMX] Trash"
Click on "Advanced" each time to return to the prior menu after choosing a folder

It may have just been that this was the first sync. The messages are all there, but are in reverse order with the oldest message at the top of the stack. It is neither a small nor orderly stack. It may have been because it was the initial sync and this was the order that GMX pulled them from hotmail.
Then there is the lag. I guess that you, like me, tested this out by sending yourself some messages "just to make sure it worked". How long did you find the lag between sending something to hotmail and recieving it through GMX? Right now, I'm sitting on 15 minutes since I sent one and it still has not arived in the GMX collector.
Edit: Never mind on that last part. Seems Hotmail thinks something coming from my gmail account is spam. Twice. But not the ones for blue pills, lotteries from Europe, financially challenged nobility from African nations, or the young lady that wants to get to know me better if only I would stop by her site and see her new pictures.
Thoughts?

  • IPod Touch Mail App not working

    My family just had FiOS installed a couple days ago.  It's taken my brother and I a couple days to notice that the mail apps on our iPod Touches (which worked 100% with our old Verizon DSL) are no longer working (i.e. they are no longer pushing emails from our Yahoo and GMail accounts to the iPods).
    I deleted my Yahoo account from my iPod and then tried to re-add it to see if that would fix things and the message I got from the iPod reads: "the imap.apple.mail.yahoo.com is not responding. check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the incoming mail server field"  My brother's Touch gave him a different message regarding his Gmail account but he's not here at the moment for me to quote it directly.  Only via the wifi at work was I able to successfully re-add my Yahoo account to the iPod.  Now I'm back home again and when I try to refresh my inbox it's just "Checking for Mail..." indefinitely.
    Note that it's only the mail app that is not functioning; all the other online functionality of the iPods (Safari, Youtube, weather app, iTunes) are working 100% with FiOS.  And as I mentioned above, the mail app worked today on the wifi at work.  It's only at home with the new FiOS that the mail app on my iPod stops working.
    Any ideas?  Might there perhaps be something I can tinker with in the router settings?

    Me again. I've discovered the mail app works when I set the firewall from maximum to typical. Is there any way to tell it to let it work on maximum?

  • IPod Touch mail app smarter/pushier than MacBook with Gmail?

    This overlaps multiple categories, starting inquiry here first.
    Why doesn't my MacBook's mail program update read-vs.-unread Gmail like my iPod Touch does? I read a message on the dedicated app on my 'Touch and it counts as "read" on Gmail; I read a message on my MacBook, and no, not registered as read on Gmail. Likewise, my MacBook "send" folder only has messages sent from my MacBook, not all my Gmail-sent messages. I've tried setting options to be as "pushy" as I know to make them in my MacBook, but what'm I doing wrong? Thanks for any info.

  • IPod Touch Mail app help

    I have recently switched to google mail as Yahoo! Mail didn't work on my iPod Touch. However, google mail doesn't work either. First it tells me it can't work with the SSL port so I switched that off. Then, when it checks for new e-mail, it takes about one minute and then it just says that it can't connect to the server! Please can you advise me what to do.
    From andrew

    Do you have a good WiFi connection when you are configuring the email? Have you tried just syncing the email settings with iTunes (Info tab).

  • Is there Junk mail filtering in the ipod Touch MAIL app

    I love the junk mail filtering in my computer's version of MAIL. Does the ipod touch do this as well?

    No it does not have junk mail filtering.

  • IPod Touch mail.app problem.

    I have set up my mail account on my Mac and it works flawlessly (I've had some problems with sending mail, because my ISP has had some difficultys with it's smtp). But now, when it is working, I tried syncing my mail account to my iPod (thru iTunes). It downloads my e-mails from my school's account, but when I try to send email, it says "Error: Senders email was incorrect". Note: SENDERS. Hmm. The same account is working with out any hickups on my mac. To clarify, i'm using my schools mail server for incoming and for outgoing i'm using my ISPs smtp server. My school's smtp works only with IPs from our school's internat network, so I can't use that.

  • TS3276 An email sent from my iMac has a button linked to a clip hosted on Vimeo. When received, the link functions on iMac and iPad, but opens a window of app icons on iPhone and iPod touch. Any ideas what's wrong?

    For anyone else reading this thread, it is worth knowing that sometimes an email is, or can be, corrupted thereby jamming the works. The solution above is good, but I just wanted to suggest another one.
    If the problem arises, go to an online mail access service, such as Mail2Web.com and login to you mail account there and delete the offending message.
    Problem solved.
    And George, as this is all entirely voluntary, whinging about no takers may not endear people to you. Besides which, a few minutes of searching on Google would have found you a number of solutions.

  • Reply To field on iPhone/iPod Touch Mail?

    Is there an option to provide a "Reply-To" field on the iPhone and iPod Touch versions of the email app? When i use mail on my iMac, the field is there when I create a new email message.
    I am currently in my free-trial for MobleMe and for now, if I send an email from the iPhone. I'd like the reply-to to be set to my other email account (not the .me account).
    Thanks,
    Rick

    Thanks. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something.

  • I don't want my music on my iPad as it takes up too much space, but I do want it on my iPhone and iPod touch.  How do it prevent it from going to iPad?

    How do I get my music only on my IPhone and iPod touch, but keep it off my iPad.

    If you're talking about stopping music purchased from the iTunes store automatically downloading to your iPad, go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores and under Automatic Downloads and turn Music to Off.  If your talking about syncing with iTunes, just uncheck Sync Music on the Music tab of your iTunes sync settings before syncing your iPad.

  • [iPhone] Targetting iPod Touch

    Is there any obvious reason why a simple iPhone app that doesn't use any of the iPhone-specific features doesn't work on the iPod Touch?
    My app was built using the iPhone SDK (v 9m2199a) for iPhone OS 2.0, utilizing standard UIKit with CFSockStream for making TCP connections. It saves some data using NSKeyedUnarchiver. Other than that, there is no camera, gps, accelerometer or any device-specific feature access.
    I tested it against my iPhone and it works fine, then submitted to the app store as being both iPhone and iPod Touch compatible. Since I don't actually own an iPod Touch, that was just a guess and a mistake on my part. A reviewer said that it doesn't work on the iPod Touch, so I'm investigating to see if there is anything that anyone might know. Googling didn't yield any conclusive results.
    Any pointers or suggestions would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I see no obvious reason why this should be the case. Also, I previously owned an iPod only an also assumed that it will work on the iPhone as well and so it did.
    My guess would be that there is some sort of trouble with the device itself. I had several users complain about the app crashing. I adviced them to
    a) try to restart there iPod/iPhone. This helped in most cases!
    b) delete the app and redownload it with the same account as used to buy the app. this will reinstall the app without extra costs to the user. this has helped in all other cases with unusual app-behaviour so far.
    May be this will help in your case as well.

  • IPhone 4 & iPod Touch can connect to Time Capsule, but not Internet

    My family and I have an iPhone 4, iPhone 3G & iPod Touch. Our WiFi comes from a Time Capsule. My Macbook Pro can connect to the WiFi and get online, but the iPod & iPhones can only connect to the Wifi, not actually get online.
    We some issues with our ISP last week, which took some time and some messing with the settings on Time Capsule to resolve. At one point, Airport Utility asked me if I'd like to switch to bridge mode...I'm not sure if that ever happened or not, to be honest, and don't know how to see if I'm in bridge mode or not (or even what that means, really).
    With my iPhone 4, I can successfully connect to the wireless network, but the icon in the top left of the screen stays on 3G (unless my service drops in my house, in which case it shows the WiFi icon but won't let me connect via Safari or any other apps).
    With the iPhone 3G, it does connect, but doesn't ever show the WiFi icon.
    With the iPod, it says it connects, but doesn't ever show the WiFi icon. I get the error "Safari cannot open the page. The error was: Operation coudl not be completed. Invalid argument."
    Does anyone have any idea what I could do to resolve this?

    I fixed this on my own. How did I do it?
    1. Reset Time Capsule to factory settings (via Airport Utility)
    2. Renamed my WiFi network
    3. Restarted my router
    Everything's fixed. I've seen this problem all over the Web but no solutions, so hopefully this will help someone.

  • Publishing iBooks for iPhones and iPod Touches

    I just created an ibook using iauthor.  I've published it to the ibooks store, but it is only available for download on iPads.  No one can download it on their iPhones or iPod touches.  How do I convert it and publish it to a format that will work? 

    Yes and no - depends on the file format of the 'book'.
    The iBooks app can be download on iPhone, iPod touch, ipad and ipad mini - true.
    File support with this app differs though, depending on device:
    iPhone and iPod touch - ePub, PDF
    Ipad and ipad mini - ePub, PDF, ibooks
    If you really want people to read your book on an iPhone or iPod touch, then the ibooks format is not for you. Use Pages for example to create ePub, or export a PDF from iBA - that way you can still get the formatting/desktop publishing layout etc.
