Hello Experts
I am having this crazy problem since I am using HTC TP2 (T-mobile version). One of my Yahoo accounts starts downloading all of my emails on my phone. I have settings for to download only email for last 3 days. My other emails like gmail and live accounts are fine, but only yahoo emails is giving this problem.
I tried deleting the account and adding again. It is fine for few days and then start doing it again. Also I have exchanged my TP2 twice for another issue and I have seen this issue on all phones.
Is there a setting on my account (online version) that is doing it.
Need help.
I swear this ish happened to me yesterday. I picked up my phone and saw 19 new emails. That only happens when someone from my old school dies and emails are exchanged on our school forum. I opened my inbox and discovered all the read and unread emails in my Yahoo inbox had been downloaded to my phone...phew! big relief no one died but why the hell did that happen? I think I did a send/recieve and all the emails just diasappeared and it went back to normal.

I have 3 email accounts set up on my Tilt2. The account that syncs with our exchange server is fine. My yahoo account is fine. My third email account is NOT fine.
The 3rd account is set up on my laptop as an IMAP account. As long as my phone is not downloading email messages for that account, new messages arrive on my laptop as "unread". The minute I hit send/receive on the tilt 2 for that email account, the messages that were "unread" on my laptop change to "read" right before my eyes. It's the most annoying thing. I don't have my laptop on all the time. Sometimes I might go a day or two without turning on my laptop, but as soon as my laptop email downloads new messages, all the new messages show up as "read" because the Tilt2 downloaded them first. I usually didn't even read them on the Tilt2. They show as unread on the phone and read on the laptop. Grrrrrrr.
My old tilt didn't behave that way. It's annoying because I generally reply to my email from the laptop, but sometimes I can't remember how far back I need to go to find out whether I've really read something or not. I spent 1.5 hours on the phone with AT&T tech support. During that call I was transferred to the HTC tech support rep. At the end all she had left was to tell me to do a master reset. Right now I don't feel like having to reconfigure everything and remember how I got everything the way it is. That will take hours.
Surely someone here must have a clue about a way to make this work right. I'd prefer not to go through the master reset if I can help it. There's no guarantee that will work either.
Help please????
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.
Right, I did a search and although loads of people don't seem to like the Gmail app very much I couldn't find the same issue. On the whole the Gmail app is fine for me, but I've just noticed a problem.
I have two Gmail accounts set up. I was checking in one of them for an email I got last week as it had details of a meeting for tomorrow. So I was looking through and couldn't find it. I thought I might have deleted it by mistake, but I logged on to my emails on my computer and found it was there with all the others. There were a couple of emails on the 4th and 5th that never arrived on my phone.
I tried refreshing the inbox on my phone and no good. I thought maybe the phone was playing up those days but I checked my other Gmail account and I had emails on those days synced and good to go. I'm stumped.
Any ideas why this happened? Any advice appreciated. Thanks.
guys, I got a really odd issue with my tilt 2 and yahoo email. I got the phone setup receiving emails from a couple of my email account, yahoo and gmail. For some reason, one of my yahoo email always download all of the mails after like a day or two of use despite the fact I set it to 1 day or 3 days. What is wrong with it?
Finally!! Someone who can relate to what I'm going through.
Any fixes for this? It had downloaded over 1400 emails in one Yahoo account and everything on the phone was lagging. There were some areas I couldn't get to: Home Screen. I ended up doing another hard reset and reloading the data from there. The only thing that sucks about that is that I lose the threaded SMS that I had.
Any help would be appreciated.
Ditto on the problem. I haven't figured out why it does this yet...
same issue has happened a few times to me. only solution I found was going to yahoo on my pc & archiving old emails so I keep only 100-200 emails in my inbox.

This is a rare issue for me. It's happened to me less than 10 times (on my HD2 and my TP2).
The only thing I do when I see it trying to download 300+ (instead of the 5 days of mail I want), I press Menu > Send/Receive to force-stop the download. When I retry, it goes back to downloading the 5 days-worth of mail.

I have a wierd issue - my corporate email is stuck getting emails upto a 1 week ago but not after that. SEndign email works fine
Anybody seen this? I even removed the entire account, rebooted, reset the account and it again downloads all email till a week ago and nothing after that
Thanks
What's your back end email server? I've been having various issues with corporate email. My company is using an old GroupWise system with some type of mailsync that allows us to connect using the Exchange protocol.
I've had issues where it works great, but doesn't download the amount of email I've asked it to sync (30days), but instead will download just a week, or two weeks. I've also had issues where it works great for a week or so, then starts chewing up battery life trying to sync constantly. Rebooting doesn't work. I have to reboot, remove account, reboot again, and re-add the account.
I initially thought it was our servers...
