Hi all,
I have configured my XDA Mini to connect to my Gmail account and download the email via POP3.
Once I have read a message, the next time I perform a send/recieve operation the message is wiped from the phone, however the messasge still remains on the Gmail inbox via the web interface?
Why does the phone remove the messages from Outlook once they are read, and is there any way to make the messages stay on the phone, and I find it really annoying reading an email and then 5mins later its disappeared.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Try http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php for gmail. There is a discussion going on about this.

Now that i have "the real thing" i would like to setup my gmail account with outlook mobile so that whenever i am connected to wi fi i can download my messages without having to open PIE. I would also like to do the same thing with my hotmail email account. How can i do this?
Have a look here - and then normal po3 account?

I do have POP setup, but it won't download messages, it can connect, but it won't download any messages. As for windows live hotmail, i cant connect with that either, i think it has to do with my settings under connections, then connections. Like with all the network and dialing rules.
you configure the incoming and outgoind mail right?
incoming mail: pop.gmail.com:995
outgoing mail: smtp.gmail.com:465
options: page 2: Outgoing mail requires authetication
Ok so i now got both working, but my gmail automatically removes my messages once they have been downloaded once. How can i fix that?
probably because there no "new messages" set the "Only display messages from the last "x" days to more days
or unset this option
The option was off, and after it had downloaded the messages once and i tried it again they all went away. My Windows Live ones stay the same though.
prefix your user account name with "recent:"
for example, my gmail account is "baarod" so I use "recent:baarod" and my normal password
see http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=47948&topic=1555
does it need quotes around it? and do i put this infront of the email adress or user name?
EDIT: nevermind i got it. Thanks a ton. Now both are working.
@Baarod
Thanx for the "recent:" tip... this was driving me up against the wall... Have you ever had it that messages you sent from Gmail (sometimes when sent from PPC, always when sent from PC) appears again, from yourself, in your Gmail Inbox?
Yeah. That's "normal" for gmail. Has something to do with it being conversation-based. If you look in gmail through the browser you'll see that actually the same thing happens, your responses to email get attached to the message you replied to.
anyway to turn it off?
Hi people... WM6.0 is bugging me - every time I send/receive it deletes all of my old mail... Is there any way to turn this off?
Thanks in advance!
No ideas?
I have the same issue with GMAIL, but could not find a setting on the device to stop the inbox deletes. Also, the gmail pop3 settings online are not that clear on what to do?
I have the same problem, and the only way I found to keep my important mail, is by moving them to the spam folder...
If you configure the settings for the mail account to download "All messages" then they won't get deleted unless you delete them manually (in which case they'll disappear next time you send/receive). Just make sure you've only got what you need in your server Inbox....or you've got an unlimited data plan as it may take a while to download them all!!
By default, new mail accounts are setup to download "messages from the last three days" IIRC, which is why messages older than that will disappear from the phone's Inbox on a send/receive.
HTH,
Mark.

gmail has a problem that it deletes any read mail. Kinda sucks, but it happens
In the Gmail options (not on your phone, but on the webpage) you can set it to retain a copy of the mail after POP retrieval.

It's not a GMail problem, this happens with all my POP3 accounts. My retrieval settings are already on All Mail - any more bright ideas?
Hello,
I have about 4 email imap accounts and when I try to Send/Receive using the Touchflo3d interface, there's no way my touch pro is able to receive emails. Only when I go to the inbox that I 'm able to get the emails...
Does anyone suffer from the same problem??
By the way, when I try to send/receive emails from every account, I always receive an error saying "Messages cannot be downloaded to your device. Make sure your connected and that your email account settings are corrected. Then, try to download messages again". I get the majority of the emails on the account but some are not received. I have to try a 2nd time and usually I get the rest. I had the same behavior on my Qtek S200 with WM6.1. Anyone else?
i have 7 long emails stuck in my outbox right.... have this problem a lot of time... i go to my outbox, click on each email and click send again.... most of the time, the recipients receive the emails twice or more... i know a lot of people say clear data in gmail app.. but it's 7 long emails... not going to erase and retype that sh1t.
my question is there an alternate email app that sends email instantly(like you are using a browser) instead of waiting stupidly sycing? as google just seems not giving a damn about the gmail outbox stuck emails problem...
