  • So far as I know, there is no way to retrieve basic Hotmail on the iPhone. But the basic version is not POP3. I know this is only part of the answer you seek, but I don't know what protocol you get when you pay for an upgraded Hotmail account. If it…

  • Would it work for you to use Groups? All listings in a company would be in the group for the company, and you could look at just those by choosing the appropriate group. Unfortunately, you can't so far create groups or add entries to them on the …
    in Sorting contact names? Comment by iferd August 2008
  • I guess this has been said, but perhaps not quite so plainly. For some of us, Lotus Notes is what we must use for email and calendaring because that's what our organizations have adopted. It makes no difference whether Mail and iCal are great or …

  • I'd be interested to see a systematic treatment of issues many are having (at least as indicated by nearly 400 posts in a single thread in the Apple support forum) with picking up and sending e-mail reliably. That was never a problem in version 1.1.…
    in Inside iPhone 2.0: the new iPhone 3G Software Comment by iferd August 2008
  • There is a long thread on the Apple support forums (here) of people who find that since updating firmware to version 2.0 (both on first generation and 3G phones) Mail becomes unreliable in picking up email. It will work fine for a time, but for thos…

  • It has a free trial, so you could give it a spin and see before you commit.

  • A relative in California with two Apple stores very handy finally gave up and ordered the 16GB iPhone on line. They were always out of stock. So at least you know it isn't only near the Canadian border, if that experience is a guide.

  • It can be shorter than 40 seconds. Be sure you make the segment into a loop in Garage Band before you send it to iTunes as described in an earlier post in this thread.

  • My son went from a BlackBerry Pearl to an iPhone recently and had no trouble with his contacts. The BB sychronized to his Mac Address Book, which the iPhone picked up automatically when he first synchronized it. He doesn't use the calendar, but if t…

    in IMAP Gmail in iPhone Comment by iferd November 2007
  • I suspect we are talking about the settings in the Gmail account at Google, not on the iPhone, for setting the reply-to address. You can do that in your Gmail account settings. The suggestion sounds great, except that my ISP blocks use of its smt…
