Email settings: Can you change them? Help!

[maxh]

I'm set up with a hosted exchange service with push email working nicely.

Some things don't work quite the way I want them to and they seem like things I should be able to change in some settings menu somewhere, but no such menu exists. How can I change them? Registry changes?

The main thing I want to change is the duration for which new emails stay on my phone. When I get a new email it sits in my inbox for some period of time then disappears. It seems like maybe a week or less, and I would like for emails to stay on my device for more like a month, or even indefinitely until I manually delete them.

I really needed an email today that disappeared yesterday.

Someone help! This has to be changeable...

Try this from your device .. I think this is what I had done:

Start > Programs > Activesync (could be in a different folder depending on what ROM your using) ..

Menu > Configure Server .. Next > Next .. You should now be on the screen that shows Contacts, Calendar, Email and Tasks .. Tap Email and hit the Settings Button on the bottom ..

Under Download the past: try a longer timeframe.

Also I think that even though the email does not show on your device you might still have access to it.

From your Pocket Outlook: Menu > Tools > Search Server .. From there you can use the search to get any email on the server even if its not actively on your device.

Anyone know if the Reply To can be changed while using Exchange? It would be nice to have it look like my emails are coming from my Gmail address, instead of my private address I use with exchange. I was able to do that with Outlook and Pop.

Thank you! That solved my issue just fine.
