close account - About xda-developers.com

Dear all,
I used a HTC universal and wizard, but I've sold them both. Therefore I would like to close my account, but how is this possible? I couldn't find the option under user control panel.
Thank you,
Pieter

You can either scroll to the bottom of a page and click contact us and then from there ask to have your user account deleted or you can just stop using the site. You might as well just leave the account and stop using the site as you never know in the future you may get a new HTC phone and wish to return.

You raised a very important legal question, & believe me you will be answered very appropriately by XDA management as I have found them to be very law abiding people.

1. What does this have to do with windows mobile 6
2. What does this have to do wth a Hermes
3. What does this have to do with a PDA
4. HTTP://WWW.GOOGLE.COM
4.1 Maby an off topic post
And in response to the question when you download a image from a server the server knows the fact that you requested the image.
Also you can actually put info into the image url eg : www.spammer.com/[email protected]
This then shows the spammer that the email [email protected] is active cause an e-mail client (outlook) downloaded the picture.

Knbhead!
1. outlook in WM6 can display full html emails, the 1st time a M$ mobile operating system can do this.
2. WM6 is now on the Hermes
3. Hermes is a PDA
The rest of your reply was an intelligent answer to a good question. Thanks.
This forum might as well shut down if a good question asked for the first time that affects a lot of people is flamed, we don't need xda-developers because we can spend hours going through Google for different questions instead of finding all the great advice in one place. What is the point of this forum if if we can't ask for help?

Dont know about you but my 2007 exchange downloads all the pics before i even opne the email.
Has anyone figured this out yet? I do know that Exchange will download the pictures but the POP3 will not automatically download. I have searched exstensivly with no luck.
I had the same problem with my POP3 account from Yahoo. There is an option in the Yahoo account (on the Yahoo server) to block images for privacy reasons, etc. I had to log in to my Yahoo account from my desktop, switch to the Yahoo Classic version (not the beta), then click options, then it is the 3rd page of the SPAM settings. Apparently it also affects emails that are sent to the mobile device. Hope this helps, even if you use another mail provider.

EXCHANGE MAIL SERVICES - incl. push / aliases etc

hey guys,
I'm now offering exchange mailboxes to users (subscription based service). right now i see two, one by austindkelly in the wizard forum (he's disappeared for over a month and looks like he doens't offer his service any more) and one by denial in the kaiser section ($5/month). I thought I'd offer up a similar service starting with the hermes group (cheaper of course) with a few extra tidbits of joy...
- supports iphone exchange services, saves a heck of money over apple's mobileme service!
- outlook web access (with the advanced interface)
- 1gb quota
- both SSL as well as standard port options
- *IMAP access* - you don't even need outlook, syncs flawlessly with your phone.
- *MAPI* outlook access - hook up your outlook on your PC to sync with my service which in turn syncs with your phone. no plugging in ever needed!
- alias included (get your own email)
- changing your password through outlook web access (one-way non-reversible encryption).
I figured it's a bit of an overkill having my own exchange server that's serving a single account (i.e. mine). so why not open it up!
Price is $10 for 3 months, $19 for 6 months.
Please PM me if you're interested... Already have a number of beta testers who I've received only positive responses from so far. I'll probably set up your account within 12 hours (probably less).
And yes, will give you unused credit money back etc etc if you're unsatisfied for whatever reason. I'm really not in this for the money, it's more to utilize something I spent hours building up, plus to cover the costs of my internet / server hardware.
And, as usual, if you need any files hosted for xda-developers just let me know, i'm already hosting over 40 ROM images and serving 5-6gb/day in ROMs from the wiki!
cheers!
free accounts:
will provide 10 rotating free accounts at any given time for test purposes, will base it off of usage. so if you use the free account, i'll keep it up indefinitely, if not then account will be removed after 14 days and given to the next person in line.
Free accounts do not have MAPI access, have 50mb storage, have no aliases either.
Depending on utilization I may increase this 10 free account limit.
Chamelion, I will be pming you later in regards to two accounts, there are a couple things I need to research beforehand.

much easier for both of us if you just forward your personal .com address e-mail to the e-mail address my server assigns you. if you have an alias, your replies will appear from your personal .com email, not from my server
for those who've PMed overnight (i'm in london time, 8:20am here now) i'll set up your accounts within the next few hours.

Hi !
I can understand. No problem.
I'm 35 myself but my last daughter is only 2 weeks old ... that's why I'm still alive and kicking at 2.30 am (Paris Time).
Cheers for the account. I'm giving it a try and will report soon.
current users : please feel free to give feedback on this thread too! appreciate it via PM but it'd be nice for other users to get some 3rd party reviews of the service!
How to use?
Chamileon, how can I use?
W/O internet access through phone company?
With internet access through free wifi?
TIA

doesn't matter what kind of internet you have / what method you use. long as you can open a website, you can use this

Hi everyone,
I have to acknowledge that the service provided by Chamelion is working flawlessly. I've been using it for a week now and did not encounter any trouble except encoding issues but apparently not from his side. Flexmail is getting crazy with encoding, but poutlook is working great.
For sure, give it a try (if not more) !
thanks Chamelion for the good experience.
Note also that Chamelion is very accessible and quick to respond.
appreciate the positive review DR400, thanks
I have also been using the service for a week, and both Web Access and poutlook are working great.
Great!
I just signed up for the exchange service with Azim and it is great. Not only is it working wonderfully, his customer service and response time has been great. You can't beat what he offers with a stick!
Sign up peeps!
Scarlet
thanks for the feedback guys and gals!
Customer Service is A+, Exchange works flawlessly.
Great Job Azim, and Thank You!
few people are asking about synching from multiple sources...
from my understanding i can only give you one alias for your accounts, which means you can't select your "from." however you're free to forward as many accounts as you wish to the account i create for you, but you can only send from one "alias."
another multi-synching thing people are asking is whether you can sync calendar with your desktop and email with my service. sure!! its best that way in fact - that's what i do. i have my outlook on my desktop which has my calendar, contacts, and only sync my email via push on exchange to my server... you can even take this a step further and set up IMAP access so what you see in your email client is the same as what you'll see in your pocket outlook... if you delete from your desktop, whoosh it disappears from your PDA too

This question was asked way back in June 07!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311030
It does give an explanation in the thread as to why you might not want to automatically download messages... basically you could suddenly find you are swamped with even more junk mails..

i am not even sure how to make sense of what was said in that thread. I dont see how allowing automatic download for html images in an email will increase spam to the mail account. at this point in the game, winmo is the only platform that doesnt allow html rendering by default. if this were true, then woulding everyone else who doesnt use a windows mobile device be flooded with spam?
Umm... pretty sure that my GMAIL account handles the SPAM ok.
I'm still going to look into this a bit more, but I have been super busy today.
As i understand what is said, spam senders send messages to accounts generated at random hoping some of them get to a proper account. The pictures that are in the email are encoded with email address it is sent to eg. [email protected] so that if you download that image the server knows that is a valid email address and is noted.. and spread for everyone else to send you a message...

Yes... that's exactly correct....except it goes to a server not an email address... basically the concept is that it notifies the sender that the email is legit, and adds them to the list of good email addresses to sell

like l3it3r said, my spam filter does a great job. can't tell you the last time i've seen spam come through my inbox. thats a none issue over here.
me either. It is a very rare occasion when I get spam in either my corporate or personal email.
if thats a problem we could atleast try to have an option to "trust this sender" or something to automatically download html pics from trusted sources
have added this thread to my subscriptions and will watch with interest
This is something that I have found annoying for a long time now that I can't just download the images in my emails by default. I really expected it to be an easy fix and that I would find an answer straight away along the lines of "...change this one line of the registry to '0' ... " so I was really surprised to see it was a much more complicated issue.
Anyway thanks in advance to anyone with the tech knowhow who is looking into this for us all
maybe its possible to make some script or something that presses automaticly "download pictures" when email opened... i have no idea how or if its possible but maybe someone can...
For Outlook on desktop computer this is possible on registry hack. On mobile outlook this registry key is not persist...?!
http://email.about.com/od/outlookexpressreading/qt/et_inline_off.htm
Maybe is possible on other location?
I'm looking for a solution to this as well. I would like the option to trust certain senders, at least. I can't believe Microsoft didn't trust us enough to give us an option for this. I would also like to have scrolling permanently enabled.
If you add the sender to your contacts, it will automatically download the images. This is the only way I have ever known to make this work, it would be great if someone figured it out, but until then this is the only work around I know.
i would like to have this function as well.. is great that my email mostly need image downloaded together.. when i got slow connection, i would like it to download all n internet picture together while it is idle. then once i got time i can faster read it all without further waiting for downloading.
thumbs up for this feature. at least have an option so that user can tweak themselves. no nid to argue about anything but juz let user make the choice accordingly.
DEFINITELY need to have this automatically download internet pictures AND turn on scrolling..... what's the point of having such a great screen and touch capabilities when the stupid email can't figure out how to show you pictures and let you scroll right?
HUGE oversight on Microsoft's part there - email should look as nice and classy as Opera does on my TP2!!!
UP !!!
I am still looking over this. Its really annoying and kills me. What a waste?

[Q] [FEATURE REQUEST] Facebook/Google/OpenID integration and login.

I'd like to see XDA logins be integrated with Facebook or Google or OpenID. What do you think? And, does XDA have an idea to implement this?
+1
yea, and more psudonymous collection of information which could arise in legal complications for XDA?,
No thanks
Hell, NO :banghead:
Why do people want integration? Can't you remember your password?
The less sharing between websites the better of personal data and information.
I want this, since i most often forget my passwords, lost a reddit account once.

openID doesn't require any sharing of data beyond the identity itself, requires users approve what personal information is shared if more than just identity, and would be optional for those who would wish their login be completely separate from any other online identity. many users already provide Google email addresses, Facebook account information, paypal account information and other personally identifying information in their profile. openID would also allow people to login using their own trusted methods, rather than hoping this site is never compromised along with its password database. check out stackexchange; they've got openID sign in done right. since its the future and all, I should be able to have /one/ online identity, which I can manage myself (without google or facespace), and use that identity on any other site if I choose. and I for one like having one less password.

Hi
I changed it for you. As said above folk can contact me to have this done but you can also change your email address in user settings:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/profile.php?do=editprofile
However in your case it would have been a problem as you had an unused account from 2016 already using the email address you gave. I deleted that account and updated your current account with the email address.
Mike
Thank you, excuse me for the hassle
