So ... this direct push thing!

[Guest darrellr]

Right I've setup a free 'live' account with mail2web.com and hooked up Active Sync Server settings on my Vario II. Finally I've set-up auto-forwarding on my main mail account.

It works fine, with sent email being pushed out almost instantly but I cannot seem to find anyway of fixing the 'reply-to' field when I reply.

i.e email is ent to me at [email protected] this is forwarded to [email protected]. I read it and reply but any further correspondace will go direct to the mail2web account missing out my standard [email protected] account.

Anyone suggest a fix/alternative direct push approach?

I think you have to pay for the Personal Exchange service in order to change the from: field.

You can't change the outgoing address i'm afraid.

I thought that too and signed up to it for one month. The only differences were no adverts on OWA and pop3/smtp access to the mail2web account. Unfortunately, I was unable to change the Reply To address. I did change this on the properties on Outlook Email but still showed up as from mail2web.com on any emails. I did enquire about changing this and was told that it was not possible so I asked about their hosting service but it was going to work out quite expensive. I'm going to setup Microsoft SBS which makes it very easy to put AD, Exchange and ISA on one machine. The other bonus of SBS is there are plenty of free POP3 plugins so you don't have to change, or setup DNS records. Hope this info helps someone.

Thanks, you saved me $1.79. Why Gmail can't offer some form of IMAP access I don't know?
