Sending attachments via Exchange not working - HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G

Hi,
I do face a strange problem on my Flyer (3G / HC) using Vodafone SIM.
If I try to send a mail with an attachment bigger than 10KB via the stock mail app (T-online via Exchange Activesync) it stays forever in the "out" box.
Mail with attachment 2KB or 4KB is working.
Also working is forwarding an attachment.
The same account is working on WP7 device with same settings. Therefore it doesnt look like a provider issue ?
Same account on Flyer with IMAP is working. Other Exchange Accounts via touchdown also working.
Does someone have an idea of where I can have a look at ?

Seems that this could be a generic issue with T-online and Exchange on Android (3.x ?) devices.
Telekom stated in their german forum that they could reproduce with their "Test-flyer". (sorry, not allowed to post the link)
Are there some more people in that forum who face the same problem ?

Hate to be late to the party, but this has been happening at my company with all of our Android phones. Sending, forwarding, or replying to e-mails with attachments remain in the outbox indefinitely. Sometimes they will send after an exchange reboot or after a couple of weeks. Here is a solution I found on the microsoft forums:

Solution found in my case:
In Exchange Management Console, go to Server Configuration > Client Access > Exchange ActiveSync tab.
Double click Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync Properties. Go to Authentication tab, and make sure Basic authentication is checked (mine already was) and check "Ignore client certificates" (default is set to Accept).
Cycle the WWW Publishing Service, and attachments should send.

Mail sending question

I have a question..im using outlook on the PPC PE for my POP3 mail account. I can dl and receive messages fine, but the problem lies when im trying to send messages to domains OTHER than my POP3 domain. Example, i cannot send mail to hotmail or yahoo accounts at all. I get an "Invalid Message Recipient" error. Anyone familiar with this problem or could offer some advice? THanks in advance
Your ISP does not allow submissions from the Internet. If you change the smtp server to the one provided by your GPRS service provider then you should be able to send.
where to change ?? please can u tell me step by step how to
where to change ?? please can u tell me step by step how to do it
It sounds like that when you set up the new pop account in the inbox you ticked the verify user name with you online provider.
If this is the case the solution is
inbox tools options address (then deselect that service provider or add all the new one you wish to check.
Hope this helps
Many of the public email hosters block email if none of their domains are in the "To", "Cc" or "From" fields.
So probably you just need to enter "correct" e-mail address in POP3 service settings. E.g. if your e-mail is located on www.mail.ru - you need to enter [email protected] as your own address - and no mail will be blocked by smtp.mail.ru. Just thy to check "howto's" on your mail hoster website.
HOWTO: Sending mail through GPRS
In fact: they usually check whether one of their users is a recipient for the mail . For this they use the 'Envelope-to', which is what the remote mail server supplies in the SMTP protocol using 'RCPT TO:', and not a line from the mail (otherwise BCC would not work).
If not, they check whether the sending machine is on their network. They usually do this by IP-number, so putting the right mail address in the from line would not help.
So: you need to use the SMTP server supplied by your GPRS provider when sending mail, and not the SMTP server of your ISP.
this is a good thread.
After all, how can you set different usernames/passwords for both services for different ISP's
e.g POP (incoming) from PIPEX
SMTP outgoing using o2.co.uk
Without using two "services" set up on the xda. After all how much of a pain it would be to switch between them, remembering to click the white box on the pop service when you've sent from the other service... argghh.
Am I the only person that hates the way this is setup. Anyone tried a third party POP/SMTP program other than the Microsoft Pocket Outlook Inbox?

Saturday night, still broken. Surely there is something you can do to
help me with this problem? I "should" receive a confirmation message
that my email configured correctly, but of course I don't. Is there
anyone there who can walk over to whatever server is causing the
problem, reboot it, and see if that fixes it? I am starting to wonder if
I made the right choice to use T-Mobile. I guess I'm stuck with you for
the rest of my service agreement, but I can tell you this isn't going to
be a happy relationship if this issue isn't fixed in some way.
If you can't figure out how to fix the problem with your server, could
you AT LEAST ask your network people to unblock port 25 so I can use a
different SMTP server for outgoing mail? Then at least I'm getting some
fraction of the service I'm paying for. Right now the email portion of
your service is useless.
WHO DO I NEED TO TALK TO FOR THIS TO BE ADDRESSED? Your phone reps keep
saying I "get more" with t-mobile, but all I'm getting more of right now
is frustration and unresponsiveness.
Customer 09/16/2004 01:56 PM
Getting desperate, I tried configuring email from a different computer
running a different windows version and downloaded the SMC client, your
server was still unable to detect that the client was running.
Please, I would like some kind of idea as to how to fix this, it's
important that I am able to get my mail when I am away from the office,
I have a trip coming up this weekend and now there is no way to access
my email remotely! please?
Customer 09/16/2004 10:37 AM
when I double click on the smc client icon in the systray and click
'ok' it makes an error message that says "tmpwpcli.exe has generated
errors and will be closed by windows. You will need to restart the
program". But there is nothing in the event log about it.
Customer 09/16/2004 09:55 AM
Still trying to configure email. I uninstalled the SMC, logged into My-
Tmobile, went to the email setup, downloaded the SMC client, clicked
next and I still get the error "Error communicating with teh SMC client.
Please ensure client is downloaded to your PC and is running properly."
So there is something still wrong, how do I fix it please?
Customer 09/15/2004 07:35 PM
Tried that, also called support and after being escalated the technical
person said your server seems to be having a problem. Still down as of
6:30 pm Pacific time on Wednesday. Hope you can fix this soon as I'll
need to be able to access email when I'm out of the office. Ticket #

man that's hard to read. some spaces and breaking it up would be good....
Have you gone into the settings on the yahoo mail website and enabled POP access to your account? it is disabled by default, and not everyone can activate it for free...
course, if you haven't done this then it won't work. if you already have done this and used it on another phone via pop3, then ignore me.
if you followed his instruction and still get an error message, chances are you have not yet paid for Yahoo! Mail P$l$u$

Patch for email.apk to allow Yahoo Mail over wifi

I've been browsing the web for the last couple of days trying to get out of buying a Yahoo Mail Plus account so I can check my Yahoo Mail over wifi. Anyway, I just stumbled over this in the Alldroid forums. This guy has created a patch for the email.apk for the Droid that allows you to check your Yahoo Mail over wifi. Anyone want to see if the lines are the same in our 2.1 version of Android and create a patched email.apk for the users of the Nexus One? Here's the link: http://alldroid.org/threads/16279-Email-with-Yahoo-IMAP-support
I take no credit for this other then searching for a way to be a cheap skate. Thanks to anyone that can help and possibly create a new patched email app for those of us using Yahoo Mail.
I'll gladly 2nd this request.
I had basically sworn off my sole Yahoo account b/c I can't stand checking ONLY while on Cellular networks.
Thanks in advance for anyone with the know-how to figure this out

Just log in to the Yahoo Canada website and enable the pop server. It will still pull yahoo.com emails (at least it did...).

Nope, the Yahoo Canada site still requires Yahoo! Mail Plus for POP access and forwarding. (At least, it did for me.)
However, I'm not fully certain if this would work, anyway. It appears that Yahoo!'s servers are blocking IPs that do not come from the pool reserved for mobile operators. Unless this patch is a way to force connections to Yahoo!'s mail servers to go through the cellular data connection, and use the WiFi for all other network connections when WiFi is available. (That would be the more likely avenue.)

fyi, I just download the 2.1-update1 version from the thread you linked and adb pushed it to /system/app and it appears to be working fine (can't test the yahoo thing as I don't have/use yahoo).
fwiw, I didn't have Email.apk to begin with (always remove it after flashing).
I was going to try pushing that one tomorrow when I get back to my copy of adb. I'll post how well it works. Maybe we can get it added to the roms if it works.
I tried it, and used the following settings from this page:

Totally works over WiFi !!!!!!
CONFIRMED. works here.
Although I don't think push/check frequency is working. I have it set to 5 minutes, email myself from my Gmail and still nothing, that was about 15 mins ago lol
Anyone have a fix for that? thanks!
Just adb pushed it to my phone using the same imap settings that I was before and it totally works over wifi! We should get this added to the roms as a patch. Definitely useful for those of us that use Yahoo Mail.

I imagine you're talking about this site: http://www.seven.com/index.html
- Which currently does NOT support T-Mobile, unless you sign up for their BETA program.
- Their BETA program requires you send an SMS message upon activation and for each email account setup...To their Isle of Man location, which would incur international costs, especially since I don't have a texting plan.
Are you using this, with Yahoo? Can you give more detail?
Just change your yahoo settings to Yahoo! Asia and everything works fine.

Remove your SIM card before adding your first email account to avoid sending the international SMS. You will need a Wi-Fi connection.
But there is a bug where it will keep the phone's awake time 100%, see the android section in seven's beta program forum for more info. (requires registration to access)
I just set-up the SEVEN app, and it rocks.
And I didn't need to do the SMS thing either.
You can download the software directly to the phone.
I tested it with my standard free Yahoo account, sent myself an email, and received it almost instantaneously.
Why this isn't all over every Android forum, I don't know.
Small tip. If the app FC's after initial install, just reboot the phone, and it should boot fine.
yes it rocks...
the notification icon also differentiate the emails account.
Push doesn't work, I've email myself multiple times from my gmail to my yahoo, with the fetch interval to 5 minutes (guess it's not push after all)
Am I using the wrong server settings?
If anyone has push/fetch working please PM me or post in here for others to see! thanks
Just wanted to let anyone know that cares that I uploaded the patch to CM's github yesterday and it's already been approved to be included in the next version. So, as of ver 5.0.5.3+ it should be included. YAY!

the email.apk works fine. The patch is to trick yahoo into seeing your wifi connection as a mobile connection.
Yahoo doesn't allow access to their mobile site through wifi, only through a cell carrier.

[Q] Help! Yahoo mail sync bug?

Hey guys,
omni here with what should be a relatively easy question/fix...
There may be a post on this already, but I searched around for a good 10 minutes, and at least I know I'm in the right section (not spamming dev)
I have Yahoo! Mail liked through my MotoBlur Accounts so that it will show emails in my Universal Inbox (standard Messaging app). It works intermittently, and what is really strange is that when it ISN'T working (when it has the orange error/caution symbol over the syncing icon), the stored password under Accounts is randomly modified to a 20-ish character string (my password is much fewer characters). I can go back and change the password while its in the mood not to work, but it never seems to sync. Then I forget about it and it randomly connects later. As you can imagine, this gets quite annoying... I'm running GreyBlur 1.0 and SteelBlue 1.15 (compatible; the problem was happening long before layering this theme). I do move around campus alot, which switches to new wifi networks or to 3.5G.
So to sum up the question: how can I stop MotoBlur's Accounts/Yahoo! Mail from changing my password and losing connectivity (not sure which comes first/causes the other)?
Great thanks to this community's wonderful attitude and android wizardy!

Issue Summary
In order to improve security, Yahoo recently disabled non-secure (non-SSL) connections to their IMAP e-mail servers. As a result, customers with devices running the Android operating system may encounter errors when attempting to setup or access their Yahoo e-mail account via the device's native e-mail client.
Customers attempting to setup a Yahoo e-mail account for the first time will receive an authentication failed or similar error when using the automatic setup method (only e-mail address & password are entered).
Customers who previously setup a Yahoo e-mail account may receive an error or be unable to retrieve new e-mail messages.
Critical Must Know/Must Do
New users (or existing user attempting to add a new Yahoo/AT&T account): use the Manual Set up option to enter the required server settings.
Existing users: If their Yahoo/AT&T account stops syncing, direct them to Edit the account settings and enable SSL.
Server/Protocol - IMAP
IMAP/Incoming Server - imap.mail.yahoo.com
Security Type - SSL (or "secure connection" option)
Incoming Port - 993
Outgoing Server - smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Security Type - SSL (or "secure connection" option)
Outgoing Port - 465
