Hi guys,
i just found out, my email provider wants me to pay for imap services, so i wanted to switch it to POP3 on my TP2, but there isnt any option to do so...
Does anyone know how to change from imap to pop???
You can't switch from imap to pop3. You'll have to remove your imap account from your Messaging app. Then add your pop3 account. Don't use the HTC Email Setup app. Do it manually in the Messaging app. Also remember to uncheck the box during setup that helps you to retrieve account settings automatically.
Finally found it
Had to use a different email and then rename it to web.de, cause my tp2 saved the web.de settings and used them again and again
Thanks alot

Just follow the 'Tools>NewAccount...>menu to get to the wizard, you'll then get an option to set up the account and on about screen 3 of this you will be asked if you want IMAP4 or POP3. I found it easier to disable the auto settings and go manual.

Hello all,
I have just get an Artemis and I have flashed the Vanilla ROM, but now I'm not able to configure my gmail account using the IMAP server.
The problem isthat I can not deactivate the option "get configuration parameters" from internet, and by default the option selected is the POP server.
Is it posible to configure a Gmail acount using IMAP server on this ROM?
Regards,
I had the same issue, and did not solve it ... but my workaround was to download the Java Midlet from Google.com, and get my gmail that way, I find it faster too. I know that does not answer your question, but it might help for the time being
Easy, just add Gmail as [email protected] so it won't do the autorecognize thingy. Then when all settings are entered go back to options and change email adress to [email protected].
Easy
Thank you - so easy when you think about it!!
if i only knewthis 5 months ago....jeez... soo simple
I have two hotmail accounts that I want to sync at the same time, how do I add two at the same time, it wont allow me to do so.
Also if the above is not possible: since the hotmail account was the first one I entered, it wont allow me to delete it, I want to use the other hotmail account, but since this has been set as default, it's the only email I cannot delete from the list of emails I have added to my TP2 - So basically, how do I change default email address?
Seven might work, althought i've never tried to set up two e-mails with the same service via seven:

yes you can do it, however you would have to start from scratch...
you would have to start from scratch, by removing all email accounts from the device that are hotmail/live.com accounts...you shouldnt have to hard reset to accomplish this...
once thats accomplished, you need to set up your 1st hotmail account, but DO NOT use the windows live app to set it up. instead you need to use the "set up email" app and select "other" and follow the steps to set up your 1st account. make sure to give it a name other than hotmail.
once that is set up, then you can set up your 2nd hotmail account using the windows live app. follow the steps and you are all set
the only negative i can see is that the 1st account will not be "push email" but u can set your device to check every 5 min. the account set up through windows live can be set for push email.
hope that helps...

i'm using the stock tmo rom, if that makes a difference...
what you need to do is go to programs > setup email > other
that should allow you to set up your email...
How to setup 2 HOTMAIL accounts
Easy.
Start clean by deleting any mailboxes you've setup.
Once done, Start you 1st Hotmail account but instead of typing in [email protected], mis-spell it -such as [email protected].
(You bypass Windows LIVE taking over and can manually enter POP3/SMTP settings by doing this)
Follow the prompts and type the following for these settings
POP3 = pop3.live.com
SMTP = smtp.live.com
(check) Use same username/pw for sending email
Leave Advanced Server settings unchecked.
Continue the same steps for your 2nd HOTMAIL account.
Ok using the default email app that comes on the phone ( I like it better than my gmail account ). I have 3 email account work, personal, and professional personal. When I respond to a email from work it uses my personal email to do it. I want it so it different email uses its own account to respond.
Anyone else with this problem? I kinda need it solved quickly of course because of being on the road and responding to work email.
Thanks guys.
There is no option like that. It's not the email application problem but it's the general email client issue.
If you set up multiple email account on one email client, email client is only available to use one account when you reply.
Dirty but working method is, you need to go account settings and check the 'send email from this accounts by default'.
One of your accounts is set up as the default account. I believe if you unchecked that option it will fix your issue. the next time you compose a email it will ask what account you wold like to use.
Can anyone help. I have had this problem for a while but never tried to fix it but now discovered it is not only on my GNex but also my Tab 2....
Basically i have email via virginmedia.com, which i believe is all set up correctly with POP enabled etc and my phone/Tab 2 email client set up to never delete from server. Problem is the email comes to the devices fine and i can reply, send new email etc, but if i refresh the list to check for any new email, what was already in my inbox just disappears from my device, not into the bin, just gone for good!
I have Android 4.2.1 on the GNex ans 4.1 on the Tab 2.
Remember this is the general email client and I am on Virgin Media, this is not the Gmail email app, I do not use that.
Can anyone help with this problem, would really like to be able to get my email on the move without knowing I will lose it all straight away!
Thanks
Have you tried setting it up with imap instead of pop3?

How do i do that?
The phone email settings or the email setting for the Virgin Media client on the web?
You probably need to enable it in the settings on the virgin web page, and then complete the setup on your phone.

IMAP has the advantage of being kept on the server, and "syncs" to your other mail clients. For example, with POP3 if you delete a message from the inbox on your phone it will still be on the server (Virgin), but with IMAP the email on the server is deleted as well.

so if both are enabled, why do messages disappear off my phone when i check for email again??
i want messages to remain on virgin servers in case i want to get the message on my computer also... and i want them to remain on my phone also
Hi, I'm trying to setup a new email account and think there may be a bug.
I'm trying to setup a gmail.com account but I want to set the smtp settings to use my pobox.com account so that I receive email through gmail and send through pobox.
I use the wizard which you are presented with when you choose New Account. I choose gmail which fills in the gmail pop settings for you but on the smtp screen I change to my pobox.com settings and continue through successfully.
The problem is when I go back into the smtp settings for that account, the username and password has defaulted back to that for the gmail account which obviously wont work on pobox.com!! When I try to send a mail, it is actually sent through the gmail account and not the pobox smtp even though the username and password have defaulted to the gmail settings but the smtp is what I originally left it at the pobox address
Is this a known bug? Has anyone encountered this before? Is there a fix?
Thanks
In which app you trying to add new account Gmail app or Mail app? If it's Mail app just fill your account details with gmail credentials and when account is added, edit outgoing settings. Also don't use the wizard, create it manually

I tried that unfortunately The trouble was that when I sent an email it looked as if it had been sent by the gmail account - the settings defaulted back to gmail. The settings will not save!!!
I am using mail app btw.
I have found seen other email clients which have identities so its a shame mail app does not have this feature.
I'm glad you find solution. Yes its real pity, mail app its good app
