Can I check with you guys the mail application in htc desire whether the push is faulty in terms that the pushing of mails is rather slow.
I have already set the off peak and on peak to push already.
You might want to check on your settings again. Did you set how often to downlaod the mails?
Where to find this 'how often to download the mails'?
Anyone can help out on this?

I always get notifications of email, open the app and just have enough time to watch the mail vanish before my eyes.
I blame my isp.

Are you using (configured your email) Exchange, right?
Just wanted to confirm.
Yup I'm using exchange for this purposes. Speaking of which, does that means that I can't configure yahoo mail into htc desire too?

In Gmail - how can I choose several emails in one go, to either delete them all or mark them all as read? Its bit frustrating to go throught the mails one by one... Any one knows how to do it?
You press on the tick on the left hand side of the message.
You press the MENU button while in GMail, and you get the option to delete a bunch in one go. I had this problem when I first used the Desire lol.
ok...
Thanks works great when I need to delete!
I still need to do it for those I want to 'mark as read'... there is no tick on the left!
Thanks

Either you are missing the obvious or you have some sort of messed up version of Gmail there's always been a tick on the left to select Emails, right from Android 1.0

I was using a different widget that has all mails alwaus open on the scene. Switched it now to the other u referred to.. works ok. Thanks
Slightly off topic, but related to this one.
Does anyone know how to multiple select email that has sync'd from Exchange? The standard mail app doesn't seem to offer this, or I'm going blind
Thanks

I actually decided to go back to the HTC mail widget as it gives notification for incoming Google mail... but its bit irritating as you cant choose several emails as in the above mentioned GMAIL app. Hope someone could figure it out!!
This is similar I use at moment:

There's no setup for it because it's push... probably much better for the battery than checking every x amount of minutes. You just get an email pushed to the phone when you get a new one.
That sounds cool... but how can I disable that for night time? When I got the phone there was a setup somewhere (lost it now!) where you can choose peak and non peak time updates - wonder if that can be used for Gmail?
Thanks
just turn the internet off at night time.
add the widget to the home screen and switch it to off when you go to bed.
from the home screen, menu>add to home>widget>settings>mobile data
So there's no way to select multiple/all emails for delete/'mark as read' using the HTC mail app?
I'd like to know this aswell, I havnt found a way either

no, i don't think the HTC Mail application does not give you an option to select many emails at once.
its silly really lol specially in the morning when I have around 12 rubbish emails from overnight

You can select multiple emails for deletion in the exchange mail app. Just select menu>delete and you then get selection boxes next to all your messages
Hi,
I had a iPhone 3G, and now a HTC Desire.
I can get my Mails & Contacts over the air with EXCHANGE, but there comes no Push-Notification if a new mail arrives.
Push is activated in settings.
Can someone help me?
Regards,
Kangaroo
Open mail and goto menu>more> settings> notification settings> this will give you a notification in the top task bar.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
you may have the old shoddy htc mail problem, it shows itself as push stopping after a while for no good reason. Try a force close on mail and see if it works.
BTW, are u using a Telstra Desire?

I installed trial of Roadsync - works perfect ...
So I'll spend this $9,95 ...

btw. it's a german HTC Desire - T-Mobile-Device (rooted) with original ROM
I noticed this morning that my phone is notifying me when I receive an email via the stock email application on my HTC Desire.
I've got sound and LED for SMS/MMS/Gmail etc, but not email. It's downloading them without me prompting it, but just not telling me when I've got one. Desire is running 2.1, anyone know of a fix?
Thanks
Notifications are set to LED and Sound - still no sound or LED. I've even done a factory reset, nothing.
Now It's not even checking for mail on its own.

I'm confused. Does it notify you, or does it NOT notify you? Have you checked & re-checked the settings, both from Settings > Sound and Mail app > Settings?
App settings are set to 'email notifications on and sound notifications on' and led in sound settings is on too. It doesn't make a noise or flash the led when I receive a email.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Go to Mail (or Gmail) > Menu > Settings, then check all the settings (incl Select ringtone, as it might be set to Silent).
Gmail notifications are working, I'm talking about the 'mail' app. There is no ringtone setting in there + notifications are all set to on.
It was working fine the other day, no settings were changed and then it just stopped.

So I contacted HTC on Friday night regarding my 'problem' and I've received two emails from them saying:
"It could be a driver issue... hard reset the phone or send it back to us.."
and another one saying
"It could be a software issue... hard reset the phone or send it back to us.."
I'm not sending my phone anywhere, I don't think I could go the day without my phone. Surely someone knows of a fix which doesn't require me flashing my phone?
Strangely enough it's started notifying me when I get a email now. I changed no settings or anything. My phone clearly went on strike for the weekend.
I have the exact same issue.
I contacted HTC who said it could be a task killer ending the email application but i tried that and still my emails will not receive unless i manually send and recieve them.
it seems odd that every now and then it works perfectly then just stops without me doing anything.
Very annoying, if you find a cure please let me know
Mine's back to normal now. I did absolutely nothing either. No task killer installed.
Is there any more news on this? My emails have stopped and so has my gf using HTC Magic.
Any other news from HTC?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
I contacted HTC and they said it could be a driver issue or a software issue, and if a factory reset didn't resolve it the device should be sent to them for repair.
I had a friend who had this problem at the same time as mine, and his randomly started working again at the same time as mine.
Im sure when I was messing around with my app that it is set to notify me monday to friday 9-5 and not to notify me after that or at the weekend, Can't confirm this as, well my phone is with HTC
Mine is set to send and recieve between 10am and 10pm 7 days.
I still have to manually recieve them and still cannot send any emails.
I am waiting for a response from HTC
My response from HTC
The only email account that gets automatically synced is your primary Google account. Hotmail relies on POP3 technology and as such is what is known as 'push email' i.e. you have to physically tap on the email app for it to check the server. Hope this makes it clearer.
Mine never worked, but I don't care as I use the gmail notifier widget.

Just to let you know, my hotmail is setup with the default client an it works no bother so much so, it woke me up everytime it went off past night

I learned this the hard way....
When adding a new account to my phone, by default it chooses the phone as the storage location for the contact. On my ATRIX 4G for example it would allow me to choose my Gmail account once and use that setting for all future contacts. While the HOX let's me choose the gmail account, it does't have an option (that I can find) for choosing my default method.
Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks!
The same way as you described. When adding a new contact, the very top option shows either phone, google or sim. Choose google, enter the contact and save it. Each time you go to add a new contact it should show google, at least it does for me

Yes I see the option there. But I'm curious if there is a setting that allows me to select a default so that instead of defaulting to phone it goes to Google? or removes the part where it asks all together.

Not that I've noticed on any of my HTC's I've had before. Just once you save one contact as google, it stays that way as default.

I created a 'dummy' contact and selected Google as the place to save the contact. However when I return to create a new contact it reverts to Phone. Are you saying that on your device after you save 1 contact to google any subsequent contacts are saved to google automatically?

Yes, every contact I've added since the first are saved automatically to google. In my contacts I have it set to show only google contacts only, maybe that's why it automatically sets it to google?

This would be your best solution, if not then I don't know what will.
The default when you have your google account logged into your phone should make your "People" saving default to google.

I've never had a problem with stock email, I mainly use IMAP but have occasionally set pop. I did however have to go to my email provider settings and tick allow IMAP.
I have used K9 before which seemed OK, not sure how frequently it'll check though

If I'm honest it sounds like somewhere you're entering the wrong settings
I use the stock mail app for my work emails from without issue.
Thing is these pop servers are really sensitive to the ports you try to use and what type of encryption you use etc, get one wrong and it will fail
Have you got another working email client on a pc or something that you can literally just copy the settings from, ports, encryption and all?

Does it give any errors when connecting?
Password definitely correct? Normally greyed out otherwise so I guess there's a slight slight chance that that's wrong? Can you reset it and try again, just to be sure? Unless of course the password you're trying works elsewhere like Web mail etc

Tried it about 10 times and works fine on my server and windows mail, really don't understand what it can be.
Hi just done this again and seems to be working, but one more question where do i change the sound for email alerts ?
goto normal settings (not email settings)>sound>notification sound
i could swear the old mail app used to let it have a separate sound of its own though.. weird.
