Hi, sorry if I'm in the wrong subsection, i've been searching but I couldn't find anything.
Is there a way to get notified when a new email comes to a certain folder in outlook mobile. The reason is I'm using google voice and forwarding txt to email. So I only want to get notified when I get a new sms. (I set up gmail to filter sms from google voice into a certain folder, so outlook mobile should reflect that)
Thanks in advance!

I'm also looking for a solution for this. since now nothing found. i think the only way is to use a third party emailclient
bump
and what client?
Interesting ideea, maybe I could take a look and try to implement it...
But I don't want to promise anything, so don't get your hopes high.

Well, I am sure that some people out there might have a similar issue with their device. I have finally been able to setup my e-mail accounts to work properly. I have it turned on to connect to "The Internet" (Wi-Fi on the Dash) every 15 minutes to check for new email. However, when I have the Wi-Fi feature turned off, it won't do it; which is what I want it to do. But when I have it connected to the laptop via USB to charge, it checks for the e-mail. This is pointless as I am already receiving the e-mails on my laptop.
Is there a way that I can have it not use the USB to check for e-mails? I heard in another forum that I can set ActiveSync to "Work" which might resolve the problem. Anyone know how I can do that?
Finally, if that doesn't work, what e-mail applications do you guys recommend? I have my Outlook on my laptop setup so that I receive e-mails from both my account into a single Inbox and I have the option of choosing what account I want to send from. Something like that for the Q/Dash would be very useful.
Oh, and one more thing. Is there a way to have the Q/Dash delete the messages from the server when deleting from the handheld? I would like to be able to filter my messages when receiving them on the handheld so that I don't have to re-read them on my laptop when I get home. If there isn't a setting for it, is there a program that offers this option?
Thanks in advance...
Deleting messages from server
I'm assuming you're using POP and not IMAP to check your messages on your Dash. If so, this is what I do to delete messages on the server:
1. Download messages onto Dash (of course)
2. Delete messages on Dash
3. Empty the Deleted Items folder on Dash
4. Send/Receive messages.
This has the effect of removing the deleted messages from the server. Of course, you must also delete them on the Dash -- so I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for. Another option is to use IMAP...but my email server doesn't support it so I'm using POP.
Hope that helps!

Move to Microsoft Exchange you will get Direct Push to your device and will not have to worry ever about e-mail synchronization issues
How would I move to Microsoft Exchange? Can you be a little more specific?
If your school or office doesn't offer it, this is for personal use -- you'll need a hosted Exchange service. There are a lot out there, google 'hosted exchange', or, take a look at the best, http://4smartphone.net

Anyone know how to change ActiveSync to "Work" instead of "The Internet"?
Change the sync directories.
Can you explain how. I'm really ignorant when it comes to these things.
Don't remember exactly, I found it in the help files, or the manual -- one or the other -- take a look.

If you want a free hosted exchange service that does push email and 1 Gb of storage will suffice, you could also try Mail2Web:
https://services.mail2web.com/signup/mail2weblive/mail2webLive_01.asp
Looks good -- just curious though, I noticed the free version is for use with the @mail2web email address format -- can you pay and use your own domain name. That's how 4smartphone.net works, but I couldn't find info on it at the mail2web site.

- not sure, but not a bad trade-off for free, right ?
Call me part of the ingnorant bunch too, but how can I configure POP on my DASH?
I connect through Wifi all the time. When I got to configure "Email Setup" and put my info in, is says contacting server please wait and nothing happens. It tries for a few minutes and then craps out and say it could not connect? But I can browse the web, can view my mail though my web mail accounts and can view my Yahoo account.
Please some advise on this.
you are part of the ignoran bunch! ;P
Hello,
I have 2 questions:
1.
I have a lot of email in subfolders and i was wondering if it is possible to get the mail from that subfolders visible by the contact (in touchflo) who mailed me.
Now only mail that is in my inbox will be by the contact, mail from my contacts that are in subfolders are not displayed.
An example of the screen where i want the mail from the subfolders (and inbox) to be seen:
http://www.pocketnow.com/html/portal/reviews/0000001139/review/pc_capture55.jpg
2.
Is there a posibility that i get an "new message" notification, when i get mail in one of my subfolders?
For as far as i can find with the search tool there is no solution for this, or do i missed something?
Anyone?...
no free solution yet. even M$ never plan to support the function.
btw, u may try this.
I sync with my mailserver and my mailserver automaticly moves mails to the specific folder
the program you suggest does the same, but then on my mobile.. that's not needed for me
I think that my second question will never be answered, but that my first question is touchflo specific, so maybe someone could tweak it?
*bump*....
i need such a solution too
Anyone?...
I had the same problem too. My mailserver automatically distrubutes the mail to the proper subfolder, skipping the inbox.
Fortunately I was able to add an extra rule leaving a copy in the inbox. Now everything does come in. After I have read the message I simply delete it since it is also stored in a subfolder. When I need to check it again I go to the subfolder where it is still unread.
I have the same problem. mail is synced with exchange server. mail is ordered in subfolders on the exchange server.
now on the contact - mail page (see first post) only the mails in the "INbox" are shown and not the mails in the subfolders.
Does anyone have a solution for this?
thanks
No to be dense but have you tried
From the Inbox, select Tools->Manage Folders and make sure there folders are selected? I also believe it is a limitation to only get a alert for "InBox" and not the other folders. Must also be Exchange 2007 on server...

That's allready done but you don't get a notification then
AND mail in subfolders is not displayed by the contact. only mail from the inbox is... and that's the problem

Have you tried to contact with HTC support? Maybe they can suggest something about it. If you haven't maybe I will, because I also need this feature
So I did, and here is a reply from HTC support:
"there are no plans to change the way that touchflo works in this situation, or at least, no plans that anyone here is aware of. Touchflo is designed to give you quick access to your inbox, not the entire email program. it therefore only checks your inbox. To check your subfolders you need to go to the messaging program and view them there. best regards, HTC Europe Support"

hmm
now maybe wait till the XDA developers find a solution would be nice!
Or maybe more people should bother HTC support so they know it is a feature a lot of people want.
If enough people request it, they may put it on their featurelist.
Hi All,
Say, if i do emails on my tp2, i send the email out and forget to bcc me, i forward the email to myself separately. I only get my signature without the full contents. Wondering if this is normal??
Is there any way we can configure the client or alternate programs to like pull emails like from 9am to 6pm instead?
Kinda like Nokia's default email client on e71s, i can choose when and how to download emails. And at the same time have an option to automatically send me a copy of the emails.
Thanks alot in advance or sorry if this is a stupid question..
EDIT: Is this a known thingy? Will wm 6.5 be addressing this issue?
1. When I forward mails, the entire message is included. I can think of 2 reasons why this isn't working for you.
a. You use Windows Live email (ie Hotmail) and you didn't toggle on the setting in Windows Live to include original message when replying/forwarding.
b. You've only set to download the email headers. You need to download the full message from the server before forwarding to include the whole message.
2. You can schedule your email push/pull between specific times of the day only if you use Windows Live or Exchange.
I know many people like to bcc themselves on all emails but you can just check the Sent folder as an alternative. I guess it's just a matter of preference...
My work email is primative pop3/smtp.. I'm using the default messaging on the htc touchflo3d, not the windows live.
Hmm.. i'll try the down entire message thingy..
Hi,
Have tried to use download entire email messages... still the same.. when i forward the email out.. it goes until only my signature.. does not forward the entire message
anymore ideas??
I was wondering that perhaps it may be because you're connecting via POP3. But this doesn't appear to be the case. I just tested setting up my Gmail account via POP3 and I can forward messages just fine.
After you tap on "Forward", you should be taken to a compose screen where you type in your recipients. If you scroll down, do you see the original message in full?
thats the thing... i can see the whole email in full.. theres teh "edit original sender's message" thingy...
but when i actually click send.. it only send out the portion i typed.. -.-
I have sent my phone in for service b4, updated software, hard reset... all the same... maybe i'll try my gmail and update again..
What happens if you tap the part thatt enables you to edit the original message before you send?
same ; ;
10chars
tested with Gmail and yahoo... by configuration, both uses imap on the client..
tested with my other personal email from isp... think i found a pattern..
If i forward from inbox.. everything ok..
If i forward from sent items... only what i type is sent...
i didnt test on imap.. deleted my account.. anyone got any observations??
any help??!?? ; ;
I wonder why there is no GMail Notification on the Productivity Lockscreen? Why is there only a notification for the plain Mail Client, but not for GMail?
Am I just blind and can't find the option to activate it, or is it faulty, that means you other guys have GMail notification?
I appreciate any feedback
Probably deliberately missing as HTC use their own Email client
Blame Google, not HTC. Its been ages now but Google changed the Gmail app to improve security and one of the changes is that other apps are no longer able to query to the number of messages unread in Gmail.

I thought that was fixed as of Gmail 2.3.6, I believe.
Others apps are able to use that call function (SMS Unread, MissedIt!, etc)
Has anyone had any luck with this? I would love to have my Gtalk and Gmail notifications on the lock screen when I have new messages...

Only workaround I can think of, off the top of my head would be to install a Lockscreen replacement (WidgetLocker for example) and use an app such as SMS Unread Count OR Missed It! to get those quick counts in there.
I don't know of any app that can give you a quick preview of your unread emails (subject, etc) that's not to say that it doesn't exist; I'm just not aware of one.
can't you just add google mail as one of the accounts within the native app? open the native app and go to menu/new account. you can choose a mail provider, including gmail. don't know if it will run two accounts at once. haven't tried it, and am not using gmail as my main account. so take what i suggest with a grain of salt. good luck.
I know only limited apps can use the hover option (all samsung apps), but I saw that it can be used in the EMAIL app to show a message preview
most of us use gmail, so i was hoping it would work in Gmail too, or google would let it work in an update
any thoughts/news on this?
Doesn't work in Gmail but I think it does in the stock email client, just haven't set it up yet.

Gmail doesn't support it, the native email client that Samsung provides has that feature. Don't think Google will support it. Dont expect them to either. Its s feature only 1-2% of all of Android users will be able to take advantage. Not feasible.

Quick question.
Does the native e-mail app support sending e-mails that your main account can send from? Ie. I have hotmail/outlook and I link my school account with it so I can send e-mails from my school address via Hotmail/Outlook.
Not sure if I'm clear, but I just want to know my Nexus 7 nor my Sensation can do that, so I just wanna know if it's possible.

Yes you can set up for Hotmail account to send emails from the Email client provided by Samsung.

More specifically I was wondering if I set up Hotmail/Outlook to be able to send e-mail from another account (my .edu account in this instance) could I also send the message from that address? Sure I can reply to all e-mails with my Hotmail/Outlook address, but that's an issue if the e-mail was sent to my .edu address (and pushed to my hotmail/outlook inbox)
No push for me with the native email but it's okay with the app Hotmail. I must to choice between push and Air View ...
While it's true that few Android users will have an s pen there are some that use a mouse. How does Android react when you hover something with a mouse? If they treat the s pen hover the same as a mouse hover they'd kill 2 birds with one stone.
I'm trying to figure out how to get the s pen quick commands to work properly with the Gmail app. If I make a command to just open Gmail it works but if I try to make it so you can add a message or recipient the shortcut doesn't open anything. Kind of annoying. It must be passing the arguments wrong to the app. Even if I could get it to open a bookmark to "mailto:" with an argument for the recipient and/or message, I think it would function since if I make a bookmark to mailto and put it on the home screen it opens Gmail right up.
Too bad the quick commands set up is so very limited.
You could use exchange in the default email app for push but I read somewhere that Google stopped supporting that on Gmail accounts.
Gmail does support some other kind of push. Perhaps there is a different email app that supports that alternate push method and also plays nice with the s pen and associated tools?

I did figure out a bit of a workaround for my issue with the s pen quick command. I just set up the built in email app with my Gmail account but I unchecked "sync email" and set all the sync options to "never". I still get email pushed to me and I have Gmail set as my default mail client for if I click on an email address/send to link but if I want to use an s pen quick command to send an email to a contact, it will work. Just a slightly different interface which is no big deal. It's for send only anyway.
Also, if you want Google to support the s pen try using the "send feedback" option in the Gmail app and tell them so. I'm sure if enough of us do that they will listen.
