Exchange 2010 Push Mail W/ Outlook Anywhere,Alias's, POP Forwarding, NOW w/ POP3/IMAP

[DeniaL]

I just need everyone to re-send me all their information in THE BELOW FORMAT:

First Name:
Last Name or Initial:
E-Mail address requested: [email protected]
Alias: [email protected]
Password:

For those of you from now on, I will require a $5 monthly donation to setup an account (this will be done through a subscription and paypal). I feel this is a fair amount for whoever wishes to donate. I will keep the old link for those that wish to donate above what I already ask for.

It will include an alias and Outlook anywhere access (use Outlook with this account). With each account you can have an alias setup so that your recipents see your email address as anything you like! Also, for an extra $5 per account I can automatically forward your pop3 or IMAP e-mail to your new exchange account.

Go to http://zteknology.com/paypal.html to make your donation. Make sure to use the subscription link.

The Outlook Web Address is now https://mail.getztek.com/owa/.

So if you like the service and feel that you can contribute, please send paypal payments to [email protected]. Anything helps, even if it is just $1.

If you do not know what Exchange 2010 is or offers, please google it before making any decisions about e-mailing me.

Also, please give me at least 24 hours to set up your accounts once I receive your information. Usually it will be far less than 24 hours. Thanks.

MOST IMPORTANT: do NOT e-mail me directly. All communications about Exchange 2010 must go through PM. If I receive an e-mail I will simply ignore it. This is done to simplify everything. When I have to spend extra time to figure out if you e-mailed me or PMed me, it just slows me down and e-mail's are easier to lose. Thanks for your cooperation.

Here's the setup info...I feel it's pretty thorough, but if anyone wants to add anything just let me know.

Setup on Outlook 2003/2007:

If you have an existing Outlook profile, follow steps 1-4..otherwise skip to the next section. These steps are for XP based machine. If you have Vista it will be similar but not exactly the same.
1. In Outlook, go to File --> Import and Export --> Export to a file --> Personal Folder File (.pst) --> click on the root folder in this window and choose “select subfolders” --> Click Next --> click browse and choose a location and file name for your .pst file. I suggest the desktop. --> Click Finish --> Click OK.
2. Let Outlook finish exporting your data. This make take anywhere from 1 minute to 30-45 minutes depending on how much data you have (e-mail’s, contacts, calendar).
3. On your XP Machine, go to Start, Control Panel.
a. Make sure your Control Panel is set to Classic View (Upper left hand corner of the window). If it says “switch to Category view” then you are good, but if it says “switch to classic view” then you should click it.
4. Double click on the Mail Icon within the Control Panel.
a. Click on “Show Profiles”
b. You should see your profiles here, most people will have one one and it will be called “Outlook.” THERE IS NO NEED TO REMOVE THIS!
c. Click “Add” --> Type in a Profile name (e.g. Exchange 2007/10) --> Then proceed to step 1 below.

-----
1. If using Outlook 2007/2010, At the prompt where you choose manual. If using 2003, ignore this part and proceed to the next step.

8. make sure SSL is checked
9. click on fast and slow networks, and choose basic authentication
10. Click “OK” twice
11. Then click Check Name
12. And the username/password box will pop open
13. Type in GETZTEK/User or ZTEK/User if using Exchange 2010. (this user is your e-mail address. For Example: your email address is [email protected], this is johndoe)
14. Type in Password

Can I be the first to say thankyou to Denial for this service! Just re setting up all my stuff, but from what I've seen of the new OWA it looks really good!

Thanks!


EDIT: Can you please turn off enforcing security policies on mobile devices (eg PDA's). I don't want to need to have a password when I switch on my phone everytime.

I turned off the security policy. Just soft-reset your device and then turn the lock off. Isn't the new OWA awesome!?!?

Thanks for that! No more fumbling around trying to remember what I put as a password. And yeah, the new OWA seems really good! I'm actually thinking about ditching Outlook later on and just using the web interface.

[rjefferis]

[trapper]

Wayyyyy too much information. A mod would probably be prudent in deleting that post...

EDIT: Just beat me to fixing it.

 

[kapteg92]

[dutty]

It is awesome, thanks for turning off the security feature. Everything seems to be working great!

I plan on the service being around for a long time seeing as how I use it myself. At some point I might have to close registrations if I run out of accounts I can give out., but the service should keep on tickin'.

 

[tjmvdz]

Trying to setup my mailbox again after the upgrade, but it seems the exchange server doesn't support connections using entourage 2004 (mac outlook) anymore?

i´m really tempted to sign up have you got somekind of email aggregation so i can fetch pop3 mails from other accounts?

 

[trapper]

This is a great service and is far better than the previous Exchange version I was using.

I just forward one of my pop3 e-mail accounts to my exchange account. I'm not sure if this is what you are asking. There is no way for the Exchange server to automatically download pop3 mails from, say gmail. You have to forward those e-mail's.

Actually, there are third party connectors you can use, such as POPcon, to pull POP3 and IMAP email. Apparently you can also use Fetchmail to accomplish the same thing. I'm attempting to set that up right now for myself.
