JasJar and strange email application behaviour - General Topics

I have a JarJas with WM5.
The Email application has a strange beaviour.
When I set a pop3 account all goes fine. After a while suddenly I don't find anymore the pop3 account I did set.I have to reinsert the account but when I insert the old account name the window tells me "account name already used" and I have to insert another account name. I have tried anyway but I can't find again old account and I have to insert every time a new name. Very strange.
I have installed Spb pocket plus 3, PI Informant, pocket zen phone.
In the same time some items desappear from settings application into "connection" and "system" tabs. These items reappear after a soft reset, pop3 account never.
Someone with jasjar has same behaviour?

question about outlook and synchro.

hello.
I have one email acount.
I want to be able get emails by PC and Pocket with gprs and after conecting pocket to pc , synchro emails.
Now I can configure email on PC and when I connect pocket to PC, e-mails, are copied to Pocket, to "outlook mail" folder. It looks like automaticaly there is created acount called "outlook mail" in pocket, but I cant configure it to be able get emails also with gprs. This "account" - "outlook mail" is not visible in pocket's configuration tab.
In pocket, I can create a new acount and configure pop3 and smtp for the same email with a name for eg "xxx". But now, when I check email with pocket, everything jumps into "xxx" folder. But if I get email with PC and synchro with Pocket, emails go to "outlook folder".
So, the same e-email, but two folders in pocket PC.
How to configure both to use ONE the same folder (emails got by PC, and got by pocket with gprs)

Gmail error

Hello...
After putting a new ROM on my phone...I'm having a weird issue. First off, I've double and triple checked my settings and they match what gmail requires and how it was set before the new ROM. secondly, all other data services (weather updates, web browsing, phone class, SMS, etc.) are working perfectly.
But if I try to send an email or manually send/receive, my phone pops out a message from my data connection that says "cannot connect: cannot connect with current connection settings. to change your connection settings, tap settings." and then provides a settings link and dismiss button. The rom used the auto config for ATT which seems to have gotten everything else working as expected, but I simply cannot send / receive email.
If i login to gmail directly from opera, everything works fine - but i cannot receive updates right away - slightly annoying.
Where it gets even weirder is the gmail java app will not download or send messages either.
Does anyone have any idea what may be wrong? Would this be a rom specific issue - or is a configuration for my phone wrong?
Thanks in advance everyone
hate to bump...but just curious if anyone else has experienced anything like this.
thanks.
I'm assuming when you typed in your Gmail address, Windows stated it found the setting and configured everything for you. The problem is Windows configures your Internet connection to be "The Internet". Deep inside the Gmail settings their is an option to change this to "MEdia Net". This may be your problem.
Go to MENU, then TOOLS, then OPTIONS, then click on GMAIL. Then click on EDIT ACCOUNT SETUP, then NEXT 4X, then ADVANCED SERVER SETTINGS. Then change THE INTERNET to MEDIANET. Then some more dones, and nexts, and finish. Hopefully this is the problem for you.
I've had similar problems and got to the point where I suspect it is something to do with ActiveSync.
I could receive emails, but not send emails, unless I deleted my account and reset it up again (not ideal). I started to realise this happened after I had connected via USB to certain connections, i.e. not a charger and not a computer, for example a USB car charger. In these situations the message would pop up asking me what I wanted to connect as: ActiveSync, External Harddrive or whatever the other option is.
It seems to me like the phone wasn't getting the right message and was then getting itself very much confused.
Deleting the account and resetting it up helped. Eventually (last weekend) I have Hard reset.
I'm also careful about which USB connections I now use.
Don't know if this provides some insight or use?
UPDATE: THis just happened to me again and I should point out that I don't use gmail, it's my own domain mail hosted by EasySpace. I suspect the problem is HTC Touch Pro though. I have been listening to music on my Touch Pro with a USB multi connector (3.5mm + power + other USB) connected. Wrote an email and it wouldn't send. Disconnected the cable, still wouldn't send, stopped all running apps (Messenger, ActiveSyn, Windows Media), restarted Messenger and did a send receive. This time it worked.
For me this is definitely a dodgy ActiveSync issue.
Additional gmail problems
I've also had email problems using GMail. I originally set up my gmail account as a pop account (I have my own domain forwarded there) and wanted it to reflect my address as my domain. It originally connected and started downloading the emails. Then the account vanished! The emails are still there and taking up the first account slot in my TF3D, but when I go to accounts it is not listed. After a hard reset I restored with PPM backup and it placed the emails back in there, but still no account listed. I also can't open the emails, I just see the envelope icon with the preview of the last message downloaded. I've since added gmail as IMAP, but also had trouble with that in not being able to send emails. I deleted the account and then added again (IMAP) to try and by-pass the auto setup the phone does for GMail, but still no luck. What's worse, it's added this addition to the 3rd little envelope icon in TF3D, so now I have 1. Non-functioning account 2. Empty 3. Current IMAP
Anyone know where this data is stored so I can at least go clear out the first 2 slots so the current account being used will be the first one in the list? Also, anyone figure out the fix for sending emails? I'll try the advanced setting change from The Internet to MediaNet and see if that works. It's rather pointless having the emailing picture phone that you can't email pictures from!
Changed 'The Internet' to MediaNet, still no go on the sending.

Problems with setting up messaging account in iPaq 210

I deleted my messaging account that I sync via wifi to verizon.net on my ipaq 210 because I was having some problems sending messages and I figured I would start from scratch. However, when I tap on the new account setup option, it goes directly to the default outlook email account on the ipaq. I cannot find any options anymore that it will configure my messaging setup as it did in the past. Tapping on the add new account option in messaging does nothing except, again, bring me to the default outlook email.
Soft resets does not help. I would like to avoid a hard reset if at all possible. no new software installed except bejeweled 2 a few weeks ago.
any ideas besides hard resetting?
thanks for your help

Tap an Account to Change mail account Settings has stopped working

I have a Palm Treo Pro, running WM 6.1 professional and Mobile Shell 3.0.1.
When I got the device, I set up two email accounts, which were both able to send and receive mail. I was able to go into Options and "Tap an account to change settings."
However, I now find that when I tap on account (to change settings", a few blue dots appear briefly then nothing happens. Unfortunately, tapping on "New Account" doesn't open any dialogue box either now, so I can't even delete the accounts and recreate them!
I exited Mobile Shell 3 but it made no difference.
I know I can at least delete accounts successfully, as I tried one to see...
I can't think that I've done anything dodgy recently.
I am aware that there is an issue with WM 6.1 where an SMTP error can stop an account from sending but this isn't the problem I'm having. In any case, I installed the patch for that and it made no difference.
Any help would be appreciated.

Simple app to empty a mailbox automatically?

OK. I use catchall email for my domain but I use gmail (good spam filtering)
here is the problem. the way it works is I create a catchall ([email protected]) and set it to forward to my gmail account.
problem is it ALSO keeps a copy in its own webmail imap account and there is NO way to automatically empty this and using gmail to access it is cludgy at best. The problem is every few months this 500mb mail box fills up. When that happens ALL mail stops as it gets bounced and not forwarded. I have to remember the address login etc.. and manually empty it out.
Here is what I am looking for. a tiny app that I can program with my server user name password etc.. for the imap account.
I tap this app and it just logs in and EMPTIES the account. Completely. deletes everything. nothing else. I don't need to see it or anything (its already been forwarded to me anyway)
this way once a month I tap this app and POOF all the mail saved in the imap account goes byebye. does anything remotely like that exist?
