Hi,
Is there a registry key / another setting somewhere / a little program/CAB that I can use to change Pocket Outlook's user agent to the same one as Pocket IE?
As for the Why would you want to do that / You're dumb PO is not a browser:
I have a contract with unlimited data for my phone. Of course, unlimited data = unlimited HTTP(S) and nothing else. However everything is working nicely, web browsing with PIE, Opera Mobile (after changing UA), Google Maps, Weather, Exchange 2007 Sync, ...
BUT when I get HTML messages that do not embed pictures but link to them, I get the "Internet pictures blocked" message. Then if I click to download the pictures (from within PO), nothing happens when I'm on 3G. But it works perfectly on Wifi. And I can access the image with PIE.
User agents sent out are:
FOR PIE:
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows CE; IEMobile 7.6) Vodafone/1.0/SFR_v3650/1.25.163.3
FOR PO:
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows CE; PPC)
So I strongly suppose the UA is the cause of my problem. Of course, I welcome any other suggestion. My operator is SFR, with the "Pass Web 2.0" option.
