IMAP Issues

Hello, I'm hoping someone can help.
I recently bought a HTC Desire and I'm loving it except for a big problem with my IMAP email account.
Everything worked perfectly for the first day. However the next morning I noticed I hadn't received any emails. I ended up deleting the account and starting again. No joy.. I ended up hard resetting the device and setting all back up. This time the only mail I received was what it hadn't received prior to resetting.
Now after numerous resets and support phone calls the device receives absolutely nothing yet it will send no problem. I have another account which works fine. Also the email account works fine on all other devices.
I understand the obvious question is whether I've configured the device correctly. Trust me I have.
Please can anyone suggest anything? It's almost like the Desire has cached something about my email account despite the data wipes..?
Many thanks in advance!
David

Just the same issue - "no mails"...

IMAP works perfectly here. I have one Exchange ActiveSync account and one IMAP account.

My IMAP gmail account is working perfectly here too. But I did had problem getting email notification to appear on the status bar which I manage to resolved.

I tried the imap but went back to just the gmail app as the gmail app had the emails come through much faster. I didn't find the imap and gmail worked well at all.

Tried an alternative mail client like K-9?

I'm using K-9 but I don't like it. I haven't yet found anything else that does push with IMAP though. K-9 doesn't work in the same way as other email apps for POP, which I use for another account. In fact it's unusable for me for POP on Gmail as it deletes msgs as soon as they arrive (they are not being deleted from server).

Same problem over here with IMAP failing to retrieve new emails after a certain point. I think the built in client is having difficulty with some messages - if I use another mail client to delete the next email (after the Desire stopped receiving new mail), receiving springs back into life.
I'm going to take a closer look at this. My best guess is that the HTC email client has an obscure bug relating to a mis-implementation of the IMAP protocol. For all sorts of reasons, I'd like to get the HTC client working! Perhaps there's a workaround we can implement until a bug fix is released.
In short, definitely a bug.

I agree, there is definitely a bug in there - more than one. I think I'm going to be forced to go back to good old pop3 for emails on the Desire. Even then though, the HTC mail app doesn't do push. Maybe k9 will work better with pop3 than it does with IMAP. Although neither k9 or the gmail app copy and paste do they? So I don't know what is going to be best.

htc email client and issues with forwarded email

So I have an email account.. "[email protected]" and I forward that email to my other account.. "[email protected]". Whenever I get email from this account that is forwarded it comes up with the from and to but the message is always blank. It comes up fine with the k9 mail client, and whatever the one is that comes with MIUI, Koni Elite etc.. I've tried searching for any setting that it may have but there is nothing to show the message or make it show up. Anyone else have this issue? My gmail and my charter accounts work just fine too but I work for a school district and they are Groupwise email accounts. 1 is just forwarded to the other. Thanks for any info on this if any. I've tried many google searches but can't seem to find this exact issue..

one last attempt to see if anyone else has this issue.. I know it can't be just me.. no one else forwards email to another account? if so set it up with the stock htc email client and then send a message to the account that gets forwarded.. check your mail and see if you can read it.. thanks for anyone willing.

[Q] POP3 Email will not work!?!

Just came from bb to the G2 and love the phone, however i cant seem to get my work email to connect. I set the username, password, pop3 server, ports, and made sure everything matches correctly. It all goes through like it should work.....and then nothing. When i send test emails and click on "load more messages" i get nothing. Any ideas why this isnt working?
Not sure if this matters, but i am running miui 2.3.4 - 1.5.6

Ok so i can send emails just fine from this account. Seems like it is just the incoming server. Did a double check and everything matches in the account settings with what is on my outlook account. Any help would be awesome. Thanks.

I had some problems getting the stock email app to work as well. I switched to K9 Mail (its free in the Market) and that works just fine for me.

Tried K9 and still no luck. Anyone else have success with a pop3 email account on the G2, or android in general? Thanks.

[Q] POP3 email sending issue

Tried searching but could not find anything useful.
I've set up my POP3 email many times on all of my HTC phones. Today i got myself the Note 2 and did my usual email set up but am having issues trying to send emails out. It just keep failing. Anybody else came across this issue?
What other email app would you recommend similar to the stock email app? K9 email is way too complicated for me

Im new to android but after reading people suggest me to use maildroid from the google store and works very well for me

Thanks. Really wish the damn default email client works Am using AquaMail. Seems ok so far.

Hey Buddy,
It probably isn't your email client, more than likely your settings. If your network is o2, go into your settings and change your SMTP settings to smtp.o2.co.uk and port 25. This should enable you to send email whilst on 3G at least. Ideally you can just add your network's smtp setting and have that as well as your email provider's too.

Thanks for your reply but it's weird that i can get go email, aqua mail and a couple more other email clients to work but not the stock mail. I've had a string of HTC phones and never had settings issues until now. I've tried port 25, 26 and 587. Tried with different security settings like SSL and stuff but still no go.
I'm guessing i'm the only one facing this problem

[Q] K9 send Mail using alias stopped working?

There seems to be a new "bug" or whatever, in these later "upgraded" versions of K9. My home internet/email provider doesn't allow using their smtp while on another network. So far, it hasn't been a problem, since K9 allows sending via smtp of choice, with as many aliases as you want. Now, suddenly, no other smtp seem to accept sending email via alias. So far, I've tested Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail & Mail.com. Same result - "server doesn't allow aliases", or else it works, but the smtp change sender email back. What gives? Have all smtp providers suddenly stopped accepting this? Hard to believe. I suppose it must have something to do with the later versions of K9. Anybody else experience something similar? Any input would be appreciated....

Am I really the only one using K9 aliases/other smtp:s here? Or does it work for everybody else?
