Sounds like you're forwarding your emails from your Outlook account to your fastmail.com account. But when you "forward," the emails end up looking like they're from your work account (with "fwd:" in the subject) than from your friends and colleagues. I suggest setting up a "Redirect" function or rule in Outlook instead of "Forward." When you "Redirect" an email address, it still looks like it's from your friend even though it was originally sent to your work email. That may work much better for you. Also FYI, Gmail now offers IMAP (see link below), although Fastmail is much better at making it seem as if email is coming from your work email address instead of some other email address. http://blog.proud-geek.com/2007/11/26/chatter-now-truly-plays-nicely-with-gmail-imap/ Hi Jake!

I own the 700p treo. My work Outlook account (small firm) is a POP account. I used your instructions to download chatteremail and use fastmail.com to push my emails instantly to my treo. It works great. One problem that I have encountered. 1) The emails that come over have the forwarded message contained in them. Can this be resolved? 2) When I go to try to reply to the message, instead of replying to the person that actually sent the message, it sends it back to my Outlook account (POP) since that is the forwarded message? Please help ASAP. Thanks for the great info. I own the 700p treo. My work Outlook account (small firm) is a POP account.

In a prior post: "I do know that sent emails appear in the inbox, and then “come back” to the Treo’s Chatter’s inbox on my next sync (if I’m sync’ing via POP with Gmail in addition to IMAP with Fastmail" Can you expand on this and explain how to accomplish this? Thanks for all the great info.

Got up this morning and is if by magic Fastmail and chatter are working perfect so its time to try forwarding from Hotmail which could be an experience. Thanks for all your help! This really is awesome because the Treo is a much better phone than the 8830. Thanks!

See Robert Sisson's comment above, and my response to it. Is that what's happening to you? Alternatively, maybe you're able to receive emails, but you're not able to send emails. In that case, it's because "free" Fastmail does not allow you to send email through it (via SMTP). In that case, you may need to use your gmail's SMTP (if you have gmail) -- see E's comment above and my response to it. Hope this helps!! Sean –

I thought I had followed the instructions to the letter and set up a trial Fastmail account, downloaded chatter....followed instructions above trying to get it to work with my paid hotmail account but kep getting the message" A connection could not be made to the server specified in "Edit Mailbox". Chattermail will try again in 5 minutes. The imap server it gave me for fastmail was mail.messagingengine.com I entered my login name and password correctly as I have double checked these twice? Any thoughts? Thanks Sean Hi

I don't think there's a way to link Chatter to Versamail, but you can set Chattermail to be the default email client (and thus open when the email button is pushed). Hope you get through the instructions just fine! Hi Sean – good luck, and don’t get too caff’ed on coffee, grin.

Had a Blackberry 8830 and it would not work with entourage on Mac so took it back and got a 755p. I loved the 8830's push mail so this is awesome. Is there a way to either link the chattermail to versamail so its at the touch of a button or change the treo's email button to open chattermail? Sorry, I am a comlete idiot with this stuff. Will follow your instructions tonight with plenty of coffee. Thanks! Hi..this looks awesome. Had a Blackberry 8830 and it would not work with entourage on Mac so took it back and got a 755p.
