Email problem on Dash/HTC - HTC Excalibur

I apologize in advance if this has already been answered but i have been looking for the solution for a couple of days now and have had zero success.
I have my t-mobile dash setup for pop3 email with my own domain. When I first setup the email account, the email is all downloaded fine. After that, it just stops working and hangs at "looking for changes". I can go into tools and modify the settings in there to download from 5k to 20k or make any changes in there it will download once, but then stop again.
One other fact about this is that it started once I updated my Dash from WM 5 to WM 6. I have since tried WM 6.1 and WM 6.5 and have the same problem on all.
Does anyone have any advice or solutions to this? I have seen a few people post the same question, but never any replies.

Are you using the TZones hack? If so, there is one more change needed to make your email work correctly. Look it up in the WIKI...it's the last thing on the list.
Sorry...not in the WIKI....just search for the TZones hack. It's in there.

No, I am not using the TZone hack. I have just upgraded my WM to 6.0, then 6.1, then 6.5 and have had the same problem on all of them.
It seems that using Exchange instead of POP works fine, but my email is not on an exchange server so I have to use POP.

I just put WM5 back on my dash and now my email works fine. Same setup and same account as before. The only difference is running WM5 instead of WM6, WM6.1 or WM6.5. I am not sure why that would make a difference, but I would LOVE to run a newer version of WM on my dash if anyone can shed some light on the pop email problem I am having.
I just read some other posts addressing a similar issue where a pop email setup on WM 6.1 kept "looking for changes" and wanted to check through all 6000 or so messages on the server. The recommendation was to set it up using IMAP. Does anyone know why the pop setup would be a problem but the IMAP would work?
Thanks

Exchange Push mail on LVSW build

Hi Guys
im currently using the LVSW rom (which is awesome by the way!) and have it perfecto apart from one issue.
I seem unable to tell it that my Exchange mail is HTML. The dialogue for this is greyed out in the settings and I can find no way to enable this and so all my mail is coming down as plain text. In the meantime I have switched back to IMAP.
Is this a LVSW build issue or something I don't understand/missed. I must point out that this is very possible as i'm a total newb!!!
Out of curiosity, does the fact that activesync is constantly on (And appears to be connected - but this could be "push" technology) drain my battery?
Many thanks for your help!!!

You need exchange 2007.
Look at my post I have adapted a doc from someone else in the community...
Also have a look www.httpsync.net ....
You will found some doc. about Direct Push even with Exchange 2007 sp1 ..
Ahh ok.
Thanks very much
Guess I will be sticking with IMAP then

MS Exchange Not Marking Mails Read

I just upgraded to Black 2.5 and 1.41 Radio ROM, and so far I love it... I have been playing around with if for a couple of days, but I noticed a little problem. I have an exchange server from work that I have been using direct push, and everything syncs and downloads correctly - no problem. However, when I mark a mail read on my phone, it does not mark it read on my office computer.
On the previous WM5 ROM I was using I did not have a problem, so I am not sure if this is a common problem due to WM6...
Thanks for the great site!
Im using Black 2.5 wm 6 rom, and also with an exchange server with non of the problems you are experiencing.
Same issue for me
I am also seeing this issue with some emails not being marked as read.
Using Black 2.5 w/ radio 1.41 and syncing with Exchange 2003 sp2.
However, this problem is not consistent and somewhat random. Sometimes I have noticed that out of say 5 emails I read on my phone only 1 shows as not being read on my laptop. Other times I have read several emails(15 for example) over the course of the day on my phone and several groups of them will still show as not being read on my laptop.
At first I thought my phone was losing the http connection with Exchange, but I still receive new emails via direct push. Strange.
I did not have this issue on WM5 or Black1.2
Any ideas?
i too have had the odd email not been marked as read, but i've had the same thing with every wm5/6 rom i've installed and just got used to it
this has to due with the way direct push works. E-mail's don't get pushed back as being read until a new e-mail gets pushed to the phone...or you manually send/receive in active sync.
I tried both a manual sync and sending a test email to my exchange account. The test email came through but the emails still showed as unread.
I haven't time to really look into the issue as it did not happen consistently. One thing to note I was Buzzing on Black 2.5 when this problem occurred and I have since downgraded back to the default settings(yesterday) . I did not have this problem at all today. Will update if the problem comes back.
@DeniaL
I have been considering purchasing my own Exchange Server 2007 and was wondering how you setup email accounts to use an alias. Is it a third party app?

No, its a pretty simple way to trick the exchange server. Hit me up over PM if you want more info.

yahoo go gamma. yahoo go beta for wm has a memory leak. hence, your crashing issues.
yahoo is taking for ever to release yahoo go gamma. i personally think that it will never get released and it will get swept under the rug because they cant fix the memory problems without revamping the whole program.
hi guys,
i've just managed to download the beta version of yahoo go from emule a week ago. i installed it on wm5 but didn't really synchronize my mails after it initialized.
then i upgraded to wm6 over the weekend and then installed it again. this time with gprs it didn't even want to initialize. the connection kept disconnecting. i then reinstalled and tried using my wifi connection. it then at least download my mails. but then it didn't do the job properly. cause i couldn't open the mails. they didn't download properly.
so i gave up and uninstalled it.
then i thought of just trying to use the standard mail. surprisingly,i think my account had somehow been enabled for pop or imap by yahoo go. can someone else try this out to confirm?
sorry for the messy writing. i'm using my pda.
There's supposed to be a 2.0 version of Yahoo! Go for the Hermes real soon now... I put 1.5 on my fresh WM6 last night and I could no longer reply to any emails (no matter what account I tried) in tmail.exe.
So (not knowing this), I flattened my device again because I couldn't figure out what was going on (and installed vp3g's new rom!). Everything was working fine until I reinstalled Yahoo Go 1.5 again. The same problem came back.
Problem description:
After Yahoo! Go 1.5 is installed on WM6 (on my Cingular 8525, WM6 Cingular ROM or vp3g's WM6 3.0 ROM), I can only write and reply to SMS or MMS messages. If I attempt to reply, create, or forward a message in Outlook, Yahoo!, or my IMAP account, the new mail message fails. The screen goes white, I get an option to Send or look at a menu, but no To:, CC:, Subject:, Message body etc. You can't close the message or cancel the message.
You can kill the tmail.exe program, but the problem returns if you try again.
Uninstalling Yahoo! Go 1.5 solves the problem.

someone obviously didnt bother to read the thread before he posted
by the way, you can reply to emails. once you are in the email all you have to do is start at the black screen and press the down button and then go back up. and there is your email.
mark my words though. no yahoo go gamma. if you read tech news yahoo is dying a slow death at the hands of microsoft and google.

IMAP Mail Download Error

Well I finally got my TyTn, TNT flashed, unlocked and good to go!
However, I have one question/issue.
Until I can get Blackberry Connect to work (how do I create a PIN?) I am using my IMAP4 account.
I did this all the time with my old 6700 and had no problems, but under WM6, it will start to download/send email and crash most of the way through.
Any thoughts?
Thank you!
Yeah I'd noticed this problem recieving IMAP mail in WM6 on my Hermes. WM5 worked without a problem. With WM6 it will receive about 50% of my email and then say something like "failed to download email". I then click on the 'Send/Receive' option again to get the rest of the email. It's not a show stopper but is a little annoying. If anyone has any suggestions I'd be grateful. Maybe there are some timeout settings in the registry that I don't know about.

Yahoo! Mail Issues

I really have no idea what the problem is here. I used to be able to send emails fine when I had WM 6.0 installed. I upgraded to 6.1 which automatically found imap settings for Yahoo Mail. This was working fine to send emails until recently.
Now I cannot seem to send emails at all but I can recieve them fine over imap. My phone (T-Mobile Vario II) doesn't seem to want to allow me to set up Yahoo Mail using the POP protocol; it automatically defaults to IMAP and gives me no option. I'm using Pays WM 6.1 ROM (build 3.05) if that makes any difference to anyone.
It's getting very frustrating not being able to send emails when I've just read an urgent one I've received!
Current settings are:
Incoming: imap.mail.yahoo.com
Outgoing: smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com (with authentication)
(No SSL on either server)
I don't seem to be able to find the port numbers.
Any help much appreciated!
thats the same settings i have and mine works, double check that the proxy is not enabled if you are using media net.
I had the same issue with CRC's rom. I'm lazy, so here is what I did:
1. Delete the account you created (imap).
2. Create a new account, but on the email field write something like [email protected] ...etc. (i.e. mispell yahoo)
3. Now it will ask you to setup the account manually, i.e. Internet mail, POP3, etc.
I use:
incoming -> pop.mail.yahoo.com:110
outgoing -> smtp.mail.yahoo.com:25 (Required SSL)
Hope this helps.
Many thanks dgaud007,
I hadn't thought of that and so obvious as well. Will be trying that immediately!
im having this same issue since goin to 6.1 on a Dash. Tried the yaho.com suggestion elow but it still won't always send.
Any ideas?

Win Mobile has always auto configured my Yahoo! account to IMAP (which I am pretty happy about anyway)... That said, I'm using a yahoo.co.uk account.. Don't know whether it applies to yahoo.com accounts..
I have tried using the Auto Configure and tried configuring it manually. Still cannot send about half of the time. Very weird because it always worked fine until I went to the 6.1 ROM.

From what I read in one of the Kaiser threads from incognito there was a brief mention of a bug in the 6.1 builds were about 1/2 of the time the logon authorization fails. It has happened to me even on the new 19213 version. I don't know how to fix it at this point (if it's something that can be done after the ROM is cooked). I'm using PAP authentication for now, and so far, haven't seen the issue again.
I'm still having this same issue. Anyone else? Any ideas on how to make Yahoo! outgoing email work with Kavana's 6.1 ROM?

How can I get IMAP working again?
I have recently installed Windows Mobile 6.5 on Kaiser. I was able to access yahoo mail for some time but now I can not both send and receive mails. I have also tried the method incoming -> pop.mail.yahoo.com:110
outgoing -> smtp.mail.yahoo.com:25 (Required SSL) and it is also not working. I have recently installed G-Profile and 3G Dialer may be they have caused the problem.
