Tmobile Trigger Mail on WM6.1

[nomad33fw]

Does anyone know how to make WM6.1 work with the Tmoblie Trigger mail? I installed 6.1 and tried to do the WM5/6 hack that works but had no luck. I had 6.1 on my phone for a few days and liked a lot of its features, but really like the Tmobile Trigger mail so went back to 6.

What is the trigger mail feature just wondering?

[nomad33fw]

TMobile has a hybrid push mail that was available under WM5. Basically what happens is you give TMobile.com you email address, POP & SMTP settins plus password. They then monitor you inbox. When an email is recieved thier server generates a text message that triggers you phone to check your email. The text message is invisible to the user and is automatically deleted. The advantage is that you do not have to set you phone to check email every 5min, 15 mins etc. You phone only checks when triggered to do so.

Here is probably a better discription;

Anyone have a solutuion for this? Anyone using this feature? Am I the only one that still does? I have 3 email addresses that TM triggers my phone for, most emails arrive in my phone within minutes of being sent.

Uses a txt message? I guess that wouldnt work for me. I dont need unlimited txts, but have unlimited data...so I just have wm 6.1 poll my inboxes every 5 minutes

Call T-Mobile and ask them?

[nomad33fw]

Tmobile does not support WM6.1 on the Dash, and they don't support trigger mail on anything past WM5.

[nomad33fw]

Anyone? You guys always amaze me with the way you can figure anything out, don't let me down now. Am I the only one who uses this? Is there something better out there?

[jdoggraz]

Here I will look into this and get to you asap :)

I dont think T-Mo charges your account for the trigger mail sms.

[nomad33fw]

If you don't have unlimited Text they will charge you. I am lucky and still have the Tmobile Mail and More plan that includeds unlimited data, text, sms, wifi and 1000 min for $69. I will hold on to that plan until they come up with 3G.

The trigger mail does work great though, don't know why they quit supporting it after WM5

How can we still get this?

[nomad33fw]

You have to go to your account on Tmobile.com then goto Communications Tools. Once there you will see a section that labled "About E-Mail' Click on the learn more tab. Once here you will see a picture of your Dash, scroll down to the bottom of the screen and you will is a link that says 'Still want to continue using Windows Mobile 5' if you click here it will take you to a screen where you can set you can set up you email boxes. Basically you tell Tmobile your email addresses, passwords, and pop/smtp settings. Then turn on the alerts feature.

Now Tmobile will silently alert your phone when ever an email is received in any of your configured accounts. This SMS alert triggers your phone to sign on and retrieve then new messages.

If you are using WM6 you have to add several files from WM5 to make your phone work correctly. I have these files but wont post them here unless a moderator tells me it is ok. The files needed from WM5 are

MyEmSMP.exe
TMMEPluginEnabler.exe

InBoxDriverSrv.dll
TmMapirule.dll
TmUtil.dll
tmyemail.dll

With this enabled your phone only checks email when triggered instead of every 5, 15 minutes depending on how your phone is currently set.

It works great, I would just like it to work with WM6.1 also, I am just smart enough to make it happen.

Can you please PM me the files please.

[nomad33fw]

Just PM'd you but I don't have the little paper clip when I try and PM. How do I attach the files?

[nomad33fw]

Can you please PM me the files please.


I cant attach to a PM for some reason but I sent you a link a site I made with the files. It's open you should be able to get in

[GJSmith3rd]

I still remember reading on the T-Mo site the Trigger SMS are free but it might be based on having a certain plan.

[nomad33fw]

You have to read the fine print. They are free if you have a SMS plan. Each trigger = 1 text message. When they started doing this with the first Tmobile PocketPC phone the plans for that phone all came with unlimited text. I started with the original Tmobile PPC phone, then the HP6300 and had that when I went to my Dash. I still have the plan from my 6300, Tmobile would probably love me to give it up since I get everything for $69, Tzones, Data, Text, 1000min, Nights & Weekends....

[bps725]

I have been using this on every phone since it first came out on the T-Mobile HP IPAQ. I do not have unlimited test and it does not use text but triggers the phone to convert 701 codes to the actual email. Now you do have to have thier internet option at 19.95 a month. I too love it and have switched from 6.1 back to 6.0 because of this single application. Thats ow much I love it.. (one thing that is different is I am using a PPC)

[nomad33fw]

Glad to hear that I am not the only one who loves Trigger Mail. I really want to move to 6.1, if someone could just get this to work it would be great.

Did anyone have success with getting the triggers to work? I found a cab on this website, but havent had the time to give it a try yet. Thoughts?

I was never able to get it to work. I ended up going back to 6.0, if you figure it out please let me know I would love to have 6.1
