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.

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
I had a bit of a debacle with the DI18 Gmail app yesterday. I received a really important email and replied to it promptly through the Gmail app, hit send and then took a nap. Two hours later, I wake up and see that my reply was STILL SENDING.
Even worse, I checked my Gmail on a computer and it said the email I replied to WASN'T EVEN READ.
So I flashed the ACS-modified DK28 and it seems to be working better, but now it seems the most important calls I make are MUTED on the other end, and they still connect.
So I'm left with a dilemma: is there a good working email app (Gmail or non-Gmail) out there that just WORKS??? (I've tried K-9 Mail but I didn't really like it) Or should I stay with the working DK28 version and have randomly muted calls?

Honestly there are not many alternatives. You already tried K9. I am not having any issues with calls or gmail. Not sure what is going wrong on your end. Did you wipe everything before flashing?

Yes, I did a complete wipe.
I remember I always had a problem with sync in stock DI18 for some reason, like when I first got the phone. (Actually, on stock DI18, there wasn't even an option to sync my Google Calendar on an account that had one.) That's why I started working with roms and rooting and etc.
Are you using exchange?

No, I'm just using Google accounts. Sometimes they work, sometimes not.
MailDroid is a good option.
I was having the same issue. Make sure auto-sync is checked in Setting->Accounts and Sync. If that doesn't in the Gmail app you can go to your outbox and manually force the email to be sent.
I like the galaxy tab one

SEVEN is a push type email app that I've been using since my 755p days, back when it was packaged with my Treo, it was called Sprint Email...but it was created by SEVEN. It's not downloadable from the Market, you have to goto SEVEN's website, click on their beta program and then jump through random hoops until you can download it. I had it on my Moment and now me Epic and I love it. I run 6 different email accounts, from Yahoo, Hotmail, Gmail, and AOHell and they all work perfectly, show images (from Harbor Freight ads for example) and even shows unique icons on the taskbar for each email account. Just make sure to set it up correctly, otherwise it'll do things like not check email during certain hours or on the weekends (a feature I'd never use) or below certain battery percentages. No ads and a great app, and it even comes w/ a beta IM app.
I know the password and and email is right because i use the same to login on a pc or the mobile broswer, but it just won't let me login or the facebook app from the market. any suggestions?
Did you try uninstalling/reinstalling? Is your version of Facebook outdated?
Well the only way i can remove facebook for htc sense is by forcing an uninstall using super manager. I been flashing a few ROMs recently and noticed it wouldn't work. I have no idea when it stopped working. I just found a ROM I liked and decided to start linking my accounts.
Oh, I was under the impression you were using the market Facebook. Try downloading it from the market. I never link my Facebook to HTC Sense, I skip it, and I download the one from the market.
yea not working either...

I recommend Synergy or Shooter(Joel's or wildstang's). They are solid roms.
I think it's a FB issue. It always worked for me but now won't work on any ROMs.

Check your Facebook Account>Security>Login Approvals setting from your PC. If it is set to Required, every time you flash a new ROM and reinstall a Facebook app, FB sees a new, unauthorized device and sends an SMS to the device with a numeric code for you to enter instead of your password.

Ive looked at this setting as it was suggested to me over in the thunderbolt-synergy thread, and it was disabled. Ive had this same problem for a couple days now after installing a new rom. Even going to a backup, it keeps telling me to re-enter my password when I try to sync my facebook account, and then tells me I entered a wrong user name or password. I do think it is a problem on facebooks end, but the weird thing is my girlfriend is having no problems with signing in to facebook for htc sense or the market facebook app.
I'll try the facebook account settings, but every ROM I flash it doesn't make a difference.

The facebook account settings didnt make a difference to me. Still wont let me sign in.
So I found a method that worked for me to fix HTC sense. I created a new email account with gmail and made it my new primary email with facebook. That's under account settings. Once I made it the new primary, i tried htc sense and it worked. Logged me right in. Let me know if this works I can give more detailed instructions per request.

Thank you. I was able to sign in after switching to my hotmail address as primary email. I wonder why we can't use our original email address. I was also able to sign into the market Facebook app.

It only seemed to be the Facebook for Htc sense and the market facebook app that wouldn't accept the old email. Seesmic had no problem signing in with my old email.
maybe you guys can help me with this problem. I recently had to hard reset my phone, but after re installing the app Facebook for HTC Sense it no longer tells me via notification bar which of my contacts has updated there facebook status. it used to show the people Icon with a syncing/refresh ring and tell me which of my contacts updated their status and pressing this would take me to my people app. is there anywhere on my phone where i can enable this? im on a Droid Inc
I might be the only one having this issue, but the default email app for Exchange doesn't keep the words together when it goes to the next line.
Here is an excerpt from an email:
"In todays fast paced business environm
ent, we all have to wear multiple hats to
remain competitive in this challenging ec
onomy."
See how the words just continue on the next line?
I can't find a setting to fix this.
And if I can't get this fixed, is there any other *good* apps other than touchdown to connect through activesync?
Mine doesnt seem to have this problem. I not sure what would be causing it for you.

I have the same issue with default Email app. I also see the full headers which make reading email really difficult. The actual email text is hard find with all the header and other text.
I use Exchange Active Sync adapter to connect to Lotus Notes email. Never had problems with other Android stock emaill apps.
I tried other Exchange email apps and have settled down with Moxier Mail.
Edit: I tried resetting the account on stock email app but it didn't help.
Hope this helps.

Resetting the accounts didn't help mine either. I can't wait until this thing is rooted...
Found the *kinda* fix. If you set the phone to download the entire message instead of just 2k or 100k or whatever, then it fixes the behavior. It's only when you download a partial message that words are broken onto the next line.
Looking for a decent email app that I can hear or feel (vibrate) when I get a new email.
I've tried K9 but I can only hear that when on Wi-fi for some reason, does anyone else have any other recommendations ? I have a Gmail account.
Thanks
Any reason not to try the stock GMail app?

Should have said I've tried that as well but notifications aren't coming through on it when I'm not connected to Wi-fi :-(
Have you set your phone to only sync when connected to wi-fi by any chance?
Thought there was an option for that on the initial setup. Could be wrong :/

Good thought ! Just downloaded Touchdown though & turned off Wi-fi, seems to work with this ok, although would prefer more vibration notification !
Gmail is simply the best, once I get a email within seconds I get an alert.
