Occasionally a message sits in the Outbox even after it gets successfully sent. This only seems to happen with an IMAP connection to Gmail. I have another IMAP account where this does not seem to happen.
The irritation (to the receiver of the email) is that Outlook on the phone will keep sending a copy of this email every time it syncs. I am guessing that this is some combination of Gmail/IMAP configuration issue and Windows Mobile 6.1.
Anyone else seen this?
Running Kavana 6.1 ROM.
I've been searching for an answer since last year (or two) and this still happens in 6.5
The only difference is that I've never seen it sending more than twice.
FYI, I don't sync my emails with desktop outlook, so the repeat happens only when I send the email.

Since upgrading to WM6 on my Dash, I could no longer use the Blackberry Client so I started using mobipush.
Anyway it was working great and emails would literally be instant when coming in until maybe last Sunday and now I cannot receive emails during the auto syncs. I can send just fine which is strange.
Active Sync on my phone even says synchronizing and may show items its syncing but nothing comes through. I've contacted them several times with no response.
I'm wondering if anyone else has experience with this service and any troubleshooting suggestions. I’m using their Gmail IMAP service btw. I've rebooted and even deleted/added the account back on their servers.
I just recently tried out these new roms (Ricky's and Kavana's), and I absolutely love them. Such a huge difference than using T-Mobile's Rom. I'm just having 1 issue, but it's enough to make me have to roll back to T-Mobile.
ActiveSync syncs up with my company's web exchange server, incoming mail is pushed just fine, mail folders/contacts/calendar all sync perfectly. The only trouble is, when I send an email from my exchange account, I get the following ActiveSync status error:
"One or more e-mail messages were not sent. Please delete the messages that are still in your Outbox and then create and send them again". Sure enough, the message I just composed is in my outbox.
Here is where the weirdness comes in - my email is actually sent successfully, but my phone doesn't know. What ends up happening, I start spamming people with multiple emails, because every time it syncs, it successfully sends the same email again - but still thinks it errored out.
Everything else works perfectly, Edge, GPRS, wi-fi, incoming/outgoing voice calls, receiving email. I've gone back and forth to T-Mobile, written down settings, and everything matches up. Tried Kavana's Rom, Ricky's (a couple different versions of each). Same thing happens if I'm using the Edge connection, or wi-fi. The only rom that works off the bat is T-Mobile's.
So, my phone works, but doesn't seem to know it works.

Hi,
I seem to be having an issue with the new stock 6.5 rom (Also had issue with other rom). I have an outlook account that uses an exchange server and that works fine with approx 7 days retention.
But I have another pop3/smtp account that although it retrieves and sends OK. It seems to be randomly dropping the emials. I build up 1-2 days of email, only 7-10items after deleting the usual spam. but then they all dissapear.
I would like to have a rolling 7 days of emails on this personal account.
Anyone else have this issue or do you know the solution to extend the number of days mail you keep on an email?

Same Problem
I am having the same problem with my Gmail emails being randomly deleted. For me it seems to be a time limit, after too many days of the same emails it deletes them. Originally I had this problem when I was archiving incoming mail. Everything was fine for about a week after I set gmail to not instantly archive mail. I have installed htc addicts clear ram, could that be deleting my emails from the inbox? Any help is appreciated.
Not sure if this is your problem or not - but...
Go to MESSAGING, highlight the account you are having issues with, click MENU, OPTIONS, click the account you are having issues with, click SEND/RECEIVE SCHEDULE, and change the DOWNLOAD MESSAGES: to the value you want...
Also - if you click ADVANCED from that screen you can select what you want for DELETING MESSAGES (keep/delete from server)
I finally solved it by changing over to IMAP rather than pop3. Also changed to a custom rom!!!
see what happens
Thanks nayr1482, I have tried that and it didnt blow up and so far nothing has been deleted. We will see what happens.
Can someone help me here please?
I have Exchange set up on my Desire. Occasionally, the last day or so's emails will not show on the phone under the inbox. They are there on the PC which is also on exchange but not the phone!
If I move the lost emails using the pc to a subfolder then back to the inbox and then resync the phone, the emails reappear on the phone's email app!
Any clues about what is going on here?

p.s. I use 4smartphone's exchange service
Are you sure none of the clients are removing the mail from the server after reading?
We have been having this problem in our office as well, without the use of phones. Some computers see all emails and others tend to make a selection. Really really annoying.
Couldn't figure it out.
I was getting this the first few days that I had the phone, in desperation I deleted the account each time and added it again. I think I did this three times in all, but I've not had it happen for sometime now. It's my own Exchange server running Exchange 2007 - I couldn't find anything in the logs to indicate a problem, and as it's not happened since I not bothered to look any further.
My wife's phone has done it a couple of times. Mine never has. We both use Activesync against my own 2010 Exchange server.
Deleting the account and re-adding seems to sort it, but is a pain. The mails are definitely there on the Exchange side. The mails seem to appear initially on the phone and then some time after (during another sync) disappear completely from the phone.

You mention you are syncing with an Exchange 2010 server. Does your Calendar also get synced?
What makes it really weird is that touchdown running on the phone doesnt bugger it up! I may email HTC just to get really annoyed and fobbed off by them....

Yep - the Calendar syncs.
Unfortunately the Desire doesn't support stuff like setting appointments to free/busy/out of office and if you create a repeated appointment on the phone you can't set an end date.
These are issues with the phone as a whole though, not just Exchange 2010.
Hello,
I've upgraded my Desire to LeeDroid 1.8. I went from the branded HTC 2.1 ROM to the LeeDroid. After that my POP3 mails won't stay on the phone if I download the mails with my computer.
Before I was able to save a copy of the mails on the phone an deleting it after 3 days. Now my mails instantly disappear after syncing my POP3 account with a email client like Thunderbird. That's annoying. I searched for a workaround but I can't find one.
Any hints for me?
Well, that sound OK for me ... just tell Thunderbird to leave the mails on the server for 5 days also. Otherwise you won´t be able to get them with your phone, and mails you have allready downloaded with you phone are deleted, because the phone thinks, you deleted them elsewhere. Thats the sense of syncing ...
Otherwise you could use IMAP instead of POP3. In this case, your mails stay allways on the server ... kind of backup then.
Bug or feature?
Well, before the update the phones stores copies of the mails and saved them for 3 days! That was great, because the important mails stand on the phone and get deleted after a short time.
It's annoying because in 2.1 the mails where copies and stayed on the phone. Have I really switch to IMAP? I don't want to connect all my mails with google.
I think, you have to share at least 3 days of you mails with google ...
You don´t need to use IMAP, but you have to setup thunderbird to leave the last 3 day´s emails on you pop server.
I can confirm the same behaviour with the stock froyo update.
Previously on the Telstra branded 2.1, Emails would stay on the phone even after downloading the emails onto my PC which would remove them from the server.
Since the upgrade, the next sync would empty the inbox on the phone which matches the now empty server. This matches what I have seen previously on Win Mobile.
On 2.1, the emails would stay in the phones inbox even though they have been removed from the server.
Tried setting to IMAP or POP but with the same results.
I quite liked the feature in 2.1 where the emails stayed visible.
That's the thing what I mean (but my English doesn't let me explain it so clearly like yours)
I hope there is a fix?
I think this was a fix, because now it does what it should do.
Just leave your mails a few days on the server with your pop client.
This way you have to delete spam mails only once.
Ok, perhaps there should be a button for switching the behavior.
