    Mail on tablet - unable to sync / network errors


    I've been busy to get Outlook on my tablet going since yesterday.

    I tried:
    1. with 2 different mail apps on my tablet
    2. with deleting and recreating accounts (outlook.com)

    all with default settings.

    Either there is an error : Network Sync Error or nothing happens

    Note:
    - using Gmail in both 2 email apps works fine.
    - outlook.com worked fine until yesterday or the day before yesterday

    Anybody out there having the same experience??

    I noticed there are Hotmail-Outlook issues, see: "Hotmail and Outlook down, or login problems"
    Hotmail and Outlook down, or login problems, Aug 2016 | Product Reviews

    Not sure whether Europe also affected by this?

    For specific reasons I prefer not to use Gmail.com but -personally- I never encountered issues with Gmail.

    oh, btw, no issues within Outlook 2013 using the outlook.com servers, so it is limited to my tablet.

  2. Unable to Sync gmail with Windows 10 Mail on University Proxy Network

    Hi

    I am unable to sync gmail with Windows 10 Mail on my university network which uses a proxy server. I am able to receive and send mails through Windows 10 Mail on my home network. But unable to do so even after putting the proxy settings on the University
    network.

    Is there anyway to solve this.

    thanks

    Mail App Windows 10 Not Syncing - Error Code 0x2500201c

    I recently purchased a Surface Pro 4 (Windows 10 / Office 365 [2016]). I cannot get my Mail and Calendar applications to sync with my Outlook account (Hotmail). Through three techs and tens of hours troubleshooting, Microsoft concluded it was a hardware
    issue and sent me a new tablet. I am still unable to sync with the new tablet and continue to receive error code 0x2500201c when I attempt to do so. To note, the new tablet has the same lot number (1609) as the other tablet; not sure if that matters. I was
    able to sync my Gmail email account perfectly. It is just the Hotmail account that is giving me issues. Is anyone else having this issue? Does anyone have a solution? Apparently Microsoft does not and moreover, they do not seem to care.

    I have uninstalled and re-installed the mail and calendar apps multiple times. I have reset my tablet multiple times. I have downloaded all updates.

    One way or the other the issue seems to be solved. Have no idea what and why things went wrong, but so far it looks okay now.

    I spoke too soon , M$ has quietly changed the Mail Apps Server for my old Hotmail Account and the Mail App is no longer connecting to That Hotmail account to sync.

    The Server has been switched to eas.outlook.com from bayXXX-m.hotmail.com and won't let me change it back , I hadn't noticed as I am using WLM and accessing it via IMAP instead .

    I never used the hotmail address, but rather used outlook.com, so I wouldn't know when MS changed this (hotmail->outlook).
    I tried to find older mails with my hotmail address in it and could not trace any hotmail-mails after dec. 2015, so I assume that MS switched hotmail to outlook somewhere early this year.
    Am not using Exchange Services, like you. With me, on my tablet, the server addresses read
    smtp-mail.outlook.com
    imap-mail.outlook.com

    As said, I have deleted and created my accounts a few times, in between rebooting my tablet, the error still existed.
    Then all of sudden it was 'solved', things worked fine. The question of 'How come...' remains unanswered though.

    Maybe recreate account and wait until the next day?

    Don't know... sorry.

    p.s.
    That aside and off-topic, in -my- case I have 2 accounts now:
    -former hotmail now outlook.com account
    -and an existing (relatively new) outlook.com account

    The Windows 10 x64 version is tied to the hotmail account
    Windows Explorer->Help->About 'licensed to' and the username
    under C:\Users\ is the same as of hotmail.

    Maybe .. this can be changed only when re-installing the software?

    Mail on tablet - unable to sync / network errors

    Hi,
    Those Addresses are the IMAP Servers I use with WLM .....Windows Live Mail (Essentials) they work well if a bit slow at time in WLM . WLM offers an Update each time I start it , but the last time I let it apply an Update WLM stopped working altogether, though that may have figured that out by now , not sure? I think it was an EAS issue with M$'s ongoing efforts to switch all email Servers over to EAS from DeltaSync Protocols.

    Yes my 2nd hotmail I set up with the purchase of my M$ Surface and also access it via WLM on the Desktop with my other Accounts from Work etc. Currently the only one not working is the Hotmail.com address I've had for 15+? years , neither of my addresses has changed to an .outlook.com address , I have not heard of that happening.
