Inbox on my dash that is connected to our MS Outlook email server does not download mails which are greater than 3 days. Also, in sent items, it never shows any message though messages are sent successfully. Does anyone have any idea how I can solve this? Thanks in advance!
Cheers,
KC
Select your e-mail account (so you are looking at your e-mail list).
Push menu/tools/options/account settings then push "next" 5 times
Screen will have "download messages", select that then select your options.
As far as the sent e-mails there's a selection box but mine doesn't show sent items either. To try it out:
Follow steps 1 & 2 above only select "sending" instead of account settings.
Make sure "save copies of sent items" is checked.
Hope that shines some light on the issue.
Thanks It worked!
Thanks, I was able to reach page where I can change settings to download all emails (or the way I want). Still it doesn't show items in sent item folder even though save message setting is on. I will search more in forums how it can be resolved, still if someone has any idea, please advise.
Thanks, KC
Good luck man, let me know if you figure it out.

Hey, my boss and I just got the Rhodium and I am in charge of setting everything up to his wishes. However, we seemed to have run into something strange: the email on his phone seems to be hidden or deleted after a certain amount of days.
He is connecting using IMAP and all the mail is still on the server, but this morning his phone seemed to have hidden/deleted all mail from 3 days ago and before.
I can't find anything relating to these settings in the phone, can anyone help me with this problem?
You will need to alter the settings which can/should be found as:
Go to the email screen where you would read your mail. While there go through the following options:
Menu -> Tools -> Options -> [select the required account] -> send recieve schedule
From there the option is available in a drop down menu.
Hope that will work.
they aren't hidden, but deleted. But it's just a copy. the idea is that you don't need all the emails, only the recent on on your phone. it could (if you work with a lot of attachments) fill your memmory.
But waht music art1st said, you can said you want the email from the past 3 weeks or some other period.
Thanks a lot, I managed to find the settings now. I was a bit confused because the phone is in Dutch and I am only really used to running all my OS's in English so things were a bit difficult to find.
What you said worked perfectly though!
i had the same problem, and the solution was changing my configuration to IMAP not POP
emails
may be some one had this problem as well:
When you receive an Outlook e-mail message that was sent by using a russian version of Windows mobile, the name that appears in the From field may not appear correctly.
Email is ik, i read all and topick appears ok, but person name and address are shows like lots of letters: "njdnfjdnjfnd" if i press on it them it will show me the address.
On TP1 i didnt have this problem. but in TP2 i have it and i dont know how to fix it.
Thank you for help in advance.
In Gmail - how can I choose several emails in one go, to either delete them all or mark them all as read? Its bit frustrating to go throught the mails one by one... Any one knows how to do it?
You press on the tick on the left hand side of the message.
You press the MENU button while in GMail, and you get the option to delete a bunch in one go. I had this problem when I first used the Desire lol.
ok...
Thanks works great when I need to delete!
I still need to do it for those I want to 'mark as read'... there is no tick on the left!
Thanks

Either you are missing the obvious or you have some sort of messed up version of Gmail there's always been a tick on the left to select Emails, right from Android 1.0

I was using a different widget that has all mails alwaus open on the scene. Switched it now to the other u referred to.. works ok. Thanks
Slightly off topic, but related to this one.
Does anyone know how to multiple select email that has sync'd from Exchange? The standard mail app doesn't seem to offer this, or I'm going blind
Thanks

I actually decided to go back to the HTC mail widget as it gives notification for incoming Google mail... but its bit irritating as you cant choose several emails as in the above mentioned GMAIL app. Hope someone could figure it out!!
This is similar I use at moment:

There's no setup for it because it's push... probably much better for the battery than checking every x amount of minutes. You just get an email pushed to the phone when you get a new one.
That sounds cool... but how can I disable that for night time? When I got the phone there was a setup somewhere (lost it now!) where you can choose peak and non peak time updates - wonder if that can be used for Gmail?
Thanks
just turn the internet off at night time.
add the widget to the home screen and switch it to off when you go to bed.
from the home screen, menu>add to home>widget>settings>mobile data
So there's no way to select multiple/all emails for delete/'mark as read' using the HTC mail app?
I'd like to know this aswell, I havnt found a way either

no, i don't think the HTC Mail application does not give you an option to select many emails at once.
its silly really lol specially in the morning when I have around 12 rubbish emails from overnight

You can select multiple emails for deletion in the exchange mail app. Just select menu>delete and you then get selection boxes next to all your messages
I had 2 new mails in my Gmail. I read one, and couldn't see the other one, even though while I am in the vanilla Gmail app it still says 1 new mail at the top of my inbox. Ordinarily I would have just assumed a glitch and moved on.
Except right now I'm sitting in front of my computer and logged on via my computer. Sure enough, I do have a new mail that I still haven't read. I go back to my phone and the notification bar isn't showing any new mail but inside the Gmail app it shows one unread email. Though the view shows everything greyed out and the new mail which came today is not visible.
No refresh, exiting and re-entering or moving around the screen can fix it. I wish I could keep it like this to test what is going on, but I need to read and respond to the mail.
This is a strange one.
Same problem
I hadn't yet worked out the details, but I am almost certain that I've had the same problem. I certainly seem to see nothing new, even although the app says 1 unread.
Looks a bit like a sync error with the cloud. Anyone else got any thoughts?
[EDIT]
I just looked at my Desire and it told me I had 8 unread messages. Opening GMail it said the same in the title bar but only showed 6.
I opened GMail on my Mac and sure enough, I had 8 messages; there was nothing obviously different with the 2 missing ones.
I used Search on my phone to look for the 'missing' messages and to my surprise, they came up! So they are there on the phone, but not showing in the list? So my idea about a sync error is not so good!

Are the extra emails in the inbox, or do you have a rule which applies a label to them and moves them out of the inbox?
Good suggestion.
I know in my case (I just checked) it wasn't labelled and wasn't due to skip the inbox.
I think I may have had this once before and it is rare. But it is strange.

In my experience it happens sometimes but I have solved opening from the web browser Gmail, then you'll find the unread email. Once the unread email is opened, the notification will disappear. But maybe this is a different situation. I hope this can help you.

Yes, this happens from time to time. It's not a desire thing, it used to happen on my G1. I think it's normally a mail within a threaded mail that does it. Annoying but logging into the gmail website usually reveals the answer.
I had the exact same thing happen, not sure why it does it BUT i found the emails...
So SOLUTION/LOCATION of hidden emails are... in email app press menu, goto view labels and hit All Mail, this shows up the messages that didnt show up in the Inbox...
Hope this helps
Just randomly appeared. What makes me concerned is how there is no app name or option to view the sent data.

Not sure if you want to do this or not but usually when you hit Send Email, it pulls up a bug report through your Gmail account and you can send it from there. Inside there, you'll be able to see where that email is going and do some Googling.
There are always LBE, Avast,...that have firewalls and SMS/MMS blocks. If it didn't say SMS in the screen shot, then I wouldn't be too concerned. But it does and that means that you are probably constantly transmitting somehow. But to where............ Find that app that is sending SMS back to the Mothership and uninstall it ASAP.

Thanks woodrube. I clicked the "send email" button and NOTHING happened. ( I did it with all radio communications off ie airplane mode just to be safe) and since nothing at all happened... i fear. So i just rebooted the device hoping it wiped out any outstanding task something had to do. I did open systemTuner and couldnt find anything that looked suspicious under the task manager. If it comes up again after my reboot im hard reseting.. i dont care Thanks for the recommendation. wonder if anyone else will post with this same notification thingy. Oh thats also whats weird, it showed up in my notification bar and clicking it brings up that popup.
i just got my note 2 yesterday and use it for work. i love it so far but anytime i get a email in my work account with a attatchment, the attatchment shows as winmail.dat. i never had this issue with my gnex. any idea what is causing this?
This is due to an Outlook option.
You can read it with Winmail.dat Reader software on PC.
Your contact sent you a message with RTF Microsoft Exchange format and he doesn't have any program to read that format.
He has to go to settings > message format > select HTML or Text.
And you can have a look at this website: http://www.winmaildat.com/
the strange thing is i have gotten emails from people that i used to get them all the time from and it still doesnt work. i even sent myself a email from my laptop and it did the same. just double checked and my laptop settings are to plain text.
