As many of you may already know, I’m a networking protocols guru. I’ve, in addition to publishing some, say, HTTP proxies (for example, the only one that really makes it possible to share your Web access across Pocket PC devices on pre-WM5 AKU3 devices) and tons of related utilities, tracked down a LOT of mailing / HTTP-related problems and bugs in several operating systems / with several mailer / Web clients. (Look for some of my problem reports for example in my IMAP Bible if interested to get a picture what kind of protocol-level stuff / debugging I’m doing on the Pocket PC.)

Upon scrutinizing a recent problem report in the microsoft.public.pocketpc newsgroup, I’ve developed further my set of POP3 debugging servers to make it easy to offer Pocket PC / desktop mailer clients a very easy way to feed email headers + bodies available as a separate text file to.

The new, Outlook-friendly emulator’s source is available here, listens to incoming desktop Outlook requests at port 5671 and requires the full input message (headers + body), trailed by a single “.” (to denote the end of the message) in the last separate row, in an in.txt file in the same directory.

Hope you find it useful, should you ever need a very quick way to test e-mail compliance involving the desktop Microsoft Outlook.

I need some advice regarding sharing the internet from the Axim to the desktop via Activesync.

I've been able to share internet connection from the X51V to different PPC devices , and computers but only wirelessly (wifi/bluetooth) using HTTPSnoopProxy with no problem.

I'm trying to share a connection to the desktop from the Axim while docked. The problem I'm facing is that when I dock the Axim, ActiveSync (4.2) disables wifi connection and I lose my wifi card's IP address. If I disable connmgr.exe (using Airfix) to get around it, I get a valid IP (from the wireless router) on my axim but cannot get internet connection. connmgr.exe enabled, no problem getting internet connection, connmgr.exe disabled- no internet but has a valid IP address.

I'm just experimenting. Here's the setup. I disconnected LAN from the computer. Internet connection from router to Axim, Axim running HTTPSnoopProxy to share internet connection to the desktop via ActiveSync. The only problem I'm encountering is getting an internet connection via wifi when connmgr.exe is disabled (using Airfix). Any thoughts?
