How to Sync Company Email with an Android Phone

If you already have an account on the phone (such as a Google or a POP account), you will need to follow these steps first:

Open the Email application.
Click the Menu button and then click the Accounts button.
Click the Menu button again and click Add Account.
Enter your email address and password.

*I completed the following steps on a Samsung Epic 4G from Sprint. You should find that the same instructions will work with all Android-based phones running at least 2.0 with very little modification. You might find that you have fewer options than the Epic, but the setup will be the same.

Open the Mail application.
Enter your email address and password.
Click Next.
Click Exchange Account.
Enter your: DOMAIN\username, password, and Exchange server address.
Check Use Secure Connection and Accept All SSL Certificates.
After authentication, check the boxes associated with the features you want to include such as Push, Amount To Sync, Notifications, Sync Contacts, Sync Calendar, Sync Calendar Amount.
Click Next.
In the next screen, you need to give an account name and your name (this will be displayed on outgoing email messages).
Note: Make sure the DOMAIN\username is set up in exactly that format, and the domain is most likely in all caps.

*With an Exchange account set up on your Android phone, you will not find one built-in application to handle all of the apps in one location; instead, you have to view the email, calendar, and contacts separately. Fortunately, when you set up the email account for an Exchange server, it automatically pulls the information for calendar and contacts — as long as you’ve set it up to do so.
