i don;t believe this is possible, as they do not have any way of connecting to an exchange server and communicating with it..

I am not a mac user, so maybe I am wrong, and someone else can comment?

I signed up yesterday with EMM, I wear a few different hats at work..

I was a bit skeptical on a hosted x-change service, so far it is almost as the x-change server is local.
I had a few bumps in getting started, but it was fixed rather quickly (mins not hrs) and one other bump, I emailed support around 10 at night and it was fixed fast (again, mins. not hours)

Thumbs up!!!
I wish I found this forum over a year ago when I first got my 7100, now i'm crusing on an 8700g with BES and I'm happy as a pig in s%$t.

PS, the pricing is reasonable (better than others) and the 10% discount is a nice touch.

I'm a mailbox size hog, but I'm just archiving local on my desktop, 100MB is plenty in the exchange box.. but i know i can up it for a few $$ more.

THX Dave!



8700g

Default EMM service in Italy - 04-27-2006, 04:21 PM

Hi,
I was reading the post and it seems that EMM is what I am looking for...
My only concern is knowing if the service is available in Italy using a data plan from TIM.
I own a 7100V.
Thanks
Lulazz

you should contact their support, can't see why you couldn't.

if you have the bandwidth, why not ( on the exchange part )
on the BES part, if the blackberry netowrk is the same, i don't see why not.. but again, check with exchangemymail, Dave over there is very knowledgable I think there's a gentlemen from the UK with BES service too

Default ? about EMM - 04-30-2006, 08:30 AM

A few questions about the exchange service and hosted BES:

My primary email account now is through my work. It is an IMAP system requiring SSL. Would I need to forward everything from this system to my EMM account?

Will I be able to access secure sites? Any problems with certificates? 128 bit encrypted sites? What about kerberos authentication?

Looking at this thread, there seem to have been issues with access in the past few months? Any comments from users?

I'll only comment on this.

The number is outages is/was very small. One or two over the last few months. They didn't last long and service was quickly restored. Some were even planned outages for server upgrades etc.

There is no reason to let service play into your decision making process. It's as perfect as it gets.

Hello,

i'm a BB newbie - got my 7290 this week. I wanted to ask you guys 3 questions: firstly, how is the communication to this exchange server being established? I mean, i don't get it, if i have to still pay for my Blackberry Push-Mail at E-Plus (a german cellular GSM company). Is the BB connecting to the server by regular GPRS? Can i just quit my BB plan at E-Plus and get only a regular GPRS 100 mb plan?
Second thing, can i use this BES service? I mean, i'm in germany and aren't there any technical issues (if it's just connectin by GPRS, then i assume, there aren't any).
Third thing, the pricing. On the Exchangemymail page there is a price for the Exchange account and a seperate price for BB BES 4.0. Do i have to order both plans? (19,89 $ total)

Great forum i must say Thanks in advance.

Sorry for my bad english.

Wojtek a.k.a. CoYoT

Default tethered modem - 05-01-2006, 09:35 AM

Another quick question, with the hosted BES, can I use my 8700c as a tethered modem without having to deal with cingular and the charges that may appear for wap access?

Today I noticed that I am not getting my email attachments from my hosted ExchangeMyMail BES.

I got an email yesterday saying they were doing an upgrade, and havent got them since.

Come to think of I may be experiencing the same issue. I've been traveling all week and did receive an email yesterday with several attachments in it. I could see them there but there was no option to option any of them.

Have you emailed EMM support about this?

Arrow Attachments - 05-10-2006, 09:37 AM

Sorry guys, we didn't notice the problem until a customer had emailed us and brought this to our attention.

We have resolved the issue this morning.
I do not think attachments from yesterday will be able to be opened, as the attachments were never actually delived to the handhelds. New emails with attachments are now working again..

Has anyone gotten Entourage to work with Exchange My Mail? I know they don't support it but are nice enough to have some instruction for setting it up on their website.

I followed the instructions but keep getting "HTTP error. The resource is not found."

Default Praise for exchangemymail - 05-16-2006, 06:15 PM

I need to add my praise for Dave and the whole group at Exchangemymail. I just signed up for service today and needed my 'sent from' address to be changed from the @goemm.com standard. Dave did this in under 5 minutes from the time of my first request until it was taken care of.

Amazing customer support

Default Beware those who cancel - 05-28-2006, 12:08 PM

Beware anyone who tries to cancel the Exchange My Mail service, unlike just about every other service provider, these guys will not give you a pro-rated refund for unused service if you cancel in the middle of a billing cycle. That happened to me, and I'm not impressed. No way would I ever go back or recommend anyone to them.

why did you leave?
I could see being upset if there was a problem with the service and not getting back your money but if the service was fine..... how much are you talking about here? 10 - 15 Dollars??
I have been with them for months and very happy with the service and the billing, really dont think too many people are going to worried about this.
Just my opinion

I left because I no longer had a use for a hosted BES service, which was somewhat caused by the fact that the downtime that occured was always at the most inoppertune times.

No matter what you are cancelling for, I've yet to hear of a company that doesn't provide a pro-rated refund for unused services.

I'd like to apologize in advance for asking such a "Noob" question. In order to subscribe to ExchangeMyMail, do I have to keep the Unlimited BB plan from Cingular?

Yes, you still need your BB plan from Cingular. The data plan will give you access to EMM. Your data will then flow through their system when you usa third party apps and allow you to avoid the Cingular add-on charges.

Avationwiz - Unfortunately we are not able to provide prorated refinds due to licensing fees that must be paid to Microsoft. As long as you have access to your mailbox for 1 minute, in any given month, we have to send them their fees. Therefore we are unable to give prorated refunds.

This is clearly stated in our Terms Of Service agreement, and as far as I know all our major competition all have the same clause because of this licensing fees issue. I have also never heard of any webhost company giving a pro-rated refund for unused time, but i guess it is possible.

We offer a 30 day money back guarantee, so if you cancel within the first 30 days, you are not liable for the monthly fees if you cancel within that time period.
