I was doing some research on the HTC Droid Incredible ( blackberry user) and because it uses the sense UI it can only link to one exchange account. I have two accounts that I access via exchange 2003 and OWA. Will I be able to have both accounts on the Incredible? I access both accounts through the BIS and they are both polled. Would it be possible to have one account pushed (and full sync) and one polled on the incredible?
 
Word from the User Guide posted by Phandroid is:

"You can only add one Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync account on your phone. You can sync with Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 Service Pack 2 (SP2) or later."
 
Tommy: I have the same issue. I plan on configuring one of them via Sense and the other with Touchdown.

yes I read that and it has do with the sense UI. But I only need to truely sync one account. The other account I just need polled email. That's why I was wondering if I can sync one and poll the other
 
I'm Sure People will figure this one out... Im the lucky one all i use is GMail....
 
Microsoft Live Mail

Does anyone know if it will sync with Microsoft Live mail? I know it can be set up with pop , but what about live sync?
 
Will it connect automatically to the exchange server when I go to hook it up (like the BIS) or will I have to contact my IT dept?
 
just went to the vzw store and tried it on the Moto Droid and it worked like a charm! Took me a while to figure out how to delete the account though..

Wow, that sck, a friend of mines Palm Pre [plus] can link to any number of email/exchange accounts and they all can be push. I just assumed that Android could do the same. :(
 
Even the iPhony will soon support multiple Exchange accounts. Android, Sense or both (not sure who is to blame) needs to catch up!

Does anyone know if it is TRUE push email when connected to an Exchange account? Maybe i am wrong, but i thought that if something was labeled 'Push email', it meant that the email was INSTANT; as in, an exchange account stays connected to the server, and as soon as a message hits the server, then its on your phone.

Does anyone know if this is the case for the Incredible, or is the usual, where it checks the server at set time intervals and then downloads messages at those set intervals??
 
Can anyone help me? I just got the Droid Incredible... it is my first "smartphone"... I receive my work email through Microsoft Outlook Web Access. I know that I can check my mail on my phone by going through the internet, but I want to be able to set up the email on the phone so that my work email comes directlyn to it... can anyone help me!?


Thanks.
