Hi all,
I'm back from vacation and ready to work (a little bit

) and help again.

Hello, at least for sales release it was a design decision to make notifications work like mentioned in your post. So, not a bug

Perhaps, will be changed later in updates.

NOTE: one of the problems if we are going to change a current implementation is a case when you are receiving one email per few seconds (in always up-to-date mode, for example). Vibration and sounds looks a bit annoying, just believe me

However Nokia N9 with PR 1.1 software behaves differently. Upon ActiveSync configuration the phone requires user to set up the passcode and there is no way to workaround this. I'm attaching the logs I gathered from the device. I hope they would help investigate this issue.

I'd really appreciate any suggestions on how to get rid of the password

Thank you,
Docent

Thanks for the logs. I've checked them and everything looks fine from our (MfE) side, looks like you got a security bug. They are notified about this issue. Moreover, I've checked our bugzilla and it seems to be fixed in PR1.2.

NOTE: This one seems to be the security issue too.

Tis worthwhile reading from here (not too many posts):
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...38#post1138538

godofwar's already identified what looks to be the cause of no HTML formatting for MfE Hotmail accts.
But it'd be nice to get your insights, as there appears to be no HTML formatting in other scenarios too.
After reading can you please highlight what the root causes are, & if there's solutions planned?

Thank-you.

Explanation is quite easy. Hotmail uses Exchange with a protocol version 2.5 and it is not supported downloading of the HTML text (so we are fetching only plain text). There is a workaround to download full message's MIME, but I'm not 100% sure that it will work fine and will not break anything. So, need to test it at first. Thanks for pointing me on a useful user feedback

I have MfE configured with our company Exchange server.
When calendar entry is created on phone, invited contact(s) receive only plain email, not proper Outlook invite.

However, when I modify event previously created on PC on N9, chanaged invite is sent out properly.

Any advice?

And once again. Calendar guys are aware about this issue. Btw, as I can see (on my Gmail) all invites got this part in the email: "Content-Type: text/calendar; charset="utf-8"; method=REQUEST", so... looks fine for me

.

P.S. We have a really long the Happy New Year holidays in Russia, so I can disappear on a long period of time again quite soon
