    I have been able to get one email account up and running with MS Exchange Server (my personal email).

    Question: is it possible to add another MS Exchange Server to the email system (my work account)? When I try to add it seems to only offer POP, etc.

    I see that Touchdown is a MS Exchange app but it is silent as to whether it supports multiple exchange accounts. Does anyone know if it supports multiple exchange email accounts.

    Thank you for your help.

    There are no email apps that allow more than one Exchange account. This is due to all of the items Exchange syncs: contacts, tasks, emails, calendar. You can't sync from two mailboxes at once. This holds true with any smartphone that supports Exchange, even Windows phones.

    It also holds true for Outlook itself.. probably the one application most likely to have that sort of support.

    Actually Outlook 2010 allows you to install multiple Exchange mailboxes in one profile now. It works well so far for me, worth the upgrade just for that.

    Droid can support multiple exchange accounts

    I've been able to set up two Exchange accounts successfully, so it can be done. But I'm not sure how to switch between them without changing the default account, which is a pain and should be avoidable. However, I'm a newb -- just got the phone yesterday-- so maybe I'm overlooking how to toggle through accounts--I hope. Advice welcome.

    There wasn't any particular trick to it--go to Settings > Accounts > Add Account > Corporate Sync. Do this for each Exchange server you want to connect to.

    I found the answer to toggling between accounts--use the Messaging app rather than the default Email app. Messaging shows you all the email accounts and you can choose the one you want, then go back and choose another. I dragged Messaging to my home screen.

    Hope this helps!

    When I go to Settings > Accounts > Add Account I don't have a Corporate Sync option.

    Is this some corporate exchange thing that VZW will end up charging me $20 a month for, or is it something free built into my D1??

    Go to go to Settings > Accounts > Add Account >corporate sync will show on the next screen (on my Droid 2 anyway)
    Is there a way to get the exchange server settings other than thru IT dept. I work in a school system and they don't support "phones",,,can I get that info anywhere on the owa server?

    If you either open Outlook or Mail (in the Control Panel), and change/edit an Exchange account, you should be able to see the IMAP and SMTP server names, what port they use, if there's SSL, etc.
