I have set up Exchange on my EVO and I am having an issue sending emails. Every time I try to send a new email, I got an error on the phone "Unable to send mail" and the email goes into the Outbox.
This is where it gets weird. The email does actually get sent, but it's sent 5 times. The really strange thing is that if I reply to an email I already have, it works fine with no errors. Everything else works perfect (Contacts, Calendar,polling, etc..)
I downloaded Moxier Mail to test that. Moixer mail sent the new emails with no issues so I think this has something to do with the HTC Mail app.
When I first got the phone this seemed to to work fine. I noticed this issue after I installed LockPicker. I uninstalled Lockpicker, but was still having a problem. With no other option, I did a hard reset and just setup exchange, but still got the error so I don't think lockpicker is the issue.
Any help would be awesome!
(By the way, I work for a company with 13,000 employees and they don't support Android so I can't do anything on that side)
Have you tried deleting the account from the HTC Mail App and then re-adding it? I've found every once in a while (when I was trying out the Eris) that it gets flaky and the easy fix is just to delete the account and re-add it.
Thank you for the suggestion, but I have tried that a couple times with no luck. As I mentioned, I even tried a hard reset and still got the error.
Is the email server actually an exchange server? Mine is a zimbra server and has a known issue with HTC exchange mail. This is being fixed in the 6.07 server update that rolls out in a couple weeks. Till then I've disabled email sync on the zimbra/exchange account and am using IMAP for email.

Hi, I hope this hasn't been asked, I searched and had a look through a few pages manually and couldn't find anything.
I seem to have a problem sending emails from my hotmail account on the HTC Desire. I have an HD2 set up with my account and it works fine, but my friends desire set up with MY details will receive my emails but not send them. Has anyone come across this before. I've been through the settings and they match up with what is listed online.
Thanks in advance
(again hope its not already been asked)
Check your account settings and apply these settings:
Outgoing:
Outgoing mail server address - smtp.live.com
Security type - TLS
Server port - 25

Hi, yeah I've checked through these and they perfectly match the settings on the phone. I've even registered myself for Gmail, set up the phone to receive the Gmail emails (which it does fine) but it will also not send from the Gmail account.
The messages disappear, they go to sent items not outbox. But just never seem to reach the destination. (tested the destination several times by sending emails from my HD2 and its working fine)
Thank you anyway though
Try changing the outgoing server port to 587 and that should work for you.
If not, are you rooted or running the stock firmware? Have you tried a hard reset to eradicate any potential software bugs?

Yeah I saw someone had 587 and I tried that. I think I have found the problem (after saying I tested the destination thourghly) emails sent from the Desire are being rejected by our mailscanner. However when sent from my HD2 they arrive fine. But when I sent an email from the Desire to another hotmail account it worked. When sending to a yahoo account it arrived and then instantly disappeared again into junk. So I guess now I would ask...do you know why the emails are being put into junk when sent from the desire, but the same email from an HD2 doesn't?
Thanks
No idea mate. I thought it could be something to do with your mailscanner config on your mail server but like you say, it receives email ok when sent from your HD2 :S

Yeah definitely a weird one, I guess I'll have a tinker and see what happens, if I get a result I'll post it up incase anyone has the same problem in future.
But thanks for your help

I just bought a One X to replace my iPhone 4, mostly happy about it, except the mail app is a bit frustrating
Firstly, iPhone almost always loads the full email instantly, and the ICS app only loads the text version and I have to press a button to load images and that could take an extra few seconds per email
Second, there is no next/previous button? I have to press the back button and select another mail to open it...
Lastly, whenever I receive a new email, iPhone notifies me instantly and I'm a slide of a bar away from viewing the full email, with ICS the notification system doesn't even work for me, I have to refresh the mail app in order to see the new email.
Is there any way to fix this?
I'm using Hotmail
Use the hotmail app from Microsoft. Much better imo. Has push notifications and pinch to zoom.

I am using HTC Mail to work with Gmail. Unless I select a frequent receiving interval, the time getting the new incoming email seem a bit later than what I have used in Windows Phone and iPhone. The best mail client is iPhone that it almost get the email after couple of minutes after sender dispatching the email.
K9 mail https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fsck.k9&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5mc2NrLms5Il0.
Or make an active sync account in the default mail app and set it to push.
My recommendation would be to install "Touch down for smart phones". It is the best mail app that i have found for my hotmail account and also does exchange.

Just rooted and installed a custom Rom. It appears my Vodafone handset had a lot of the email settings disabled. I can now have push mail and html messages in stock app.

I have a customer that is having issues with her yahoo email. First, the problem she had was that everytime a new email came in. It would show some form of spam message in the notification bar but when you clicked on it it would go to the right email. I recommended remvoing the email account and re adding it to the phone. Now she's not having that problem but she's not getting any notifications and old emails that she had read are now showing up unread after refreshing the email account. any help will be greatly appreciated.
Is she using the default email app or the Y! Mail app from Yahoo? I haven't had the issues you described when using either one, but maybe she can try a different app than the one she's using now.
She's using the phone email app. I tried the Yahoo mail app but it wouldn't show old emails because it's a business's email.

Hmmm... not sure - I don't know why being a business email would have any issue with showing old emails on Yahoo. Only other thought I had was to try a different email client like K-9 or Mail Droid and see if you have better luck with that.
Keep getting failed emails that stuck in retrying when sending a picture to various different emails. Anyone else experiencing this?
I sent a pic through gmail and it went through fine....are you using gmail? Are you able to send any email? I've had the issue in the past on previous phones. Had to go in and clear data from gmail, sync again and then I could send.
