I've just upgraded to a Hermes from an Alpine so I'm just getting used to WM5.
I have 3 POP3 email acounts that I have set up to download automatically headers and 2K of messages.
When I get new mail I, of course, get the notification.
If I do not read the mail either by choosing dismiss or view if there are multiple messages so I leave unread messages on the device I get a new mail notification again. I believe that this is the next time that the download is scheduled.
I've searched in the Wizard and Universal forums for notification problems but I cannot find anything about this.
So two questions
1. Is this normal on WM5 ?
2. Is it possible to stop this happening?
This is normal its just reminding you of unread messages.
Thanks, that's what I feared.
IMHO it isn't the way it should work. Even if you have it set to 10 minute download, you can receive quite a few messages in that period. You may only have time to respond to an important one because you are going to be busy for a while. At the same time you then want to know of any new mail and do notwant to keep looking at your phone every 10 minutes to see if the new mail really is new.

Take a look at phonealarm. (www.pocketmax.net)
The app provides repeating alarms for email/sms/missed/voice etc)
Works very well on universal on wm5 so should do on yours - extensive support via the forum.

Thanks Matt but I want less alerts. Seems to me that it's poutlook that raises the notification for unread emails as new email even though you have acknowledged it once.
I have flashed my Wizard with WM6. Everything is working (Exchage, IE, etc.) except my TMobile "My Emails". I installed the MailTrigger, and was able to downloand "My Email" settings I set from Tmobile website. However, I don't receive any emails. I keep getting the 701 text message alerts that notify me about the new email, but they don't seem to trigger downloading the actual email. The 701 messages are supposed to be "silent", but now they just keep piling up in my text message inbox. Any ideas?
Thanks.
My Hermes (AT&T 8525, WM5) alerts me when new mail arrives... that's no problem. However, If I don't stop and read it then, the next time it syncs it notifies me again about the same mail. Is there any way to set this up so that it will only sound a notification when something *NEW* comes in?
I really don't need to read my personal mail as it arrives, but can't afford to miss my business messages. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanx,
Woe
Hi all...
I was wondering if people more experienced could help me with a strange problem.
I can't seem to send or receive sms'es. When I send an sms, nothing happens, and the message just sits there in the "Outbox".
When I send an sms to myself (from another phone), the phone WAKES UP, but no message shows up. So obviously the phone is receiving the message but it's not showing up? Maybe it's being blocked somewhere?
I've checked my settings, sms is set to send via GSM and the service center number is correct.
Also to confirm - I've tried hard-reset and the phone received sms'es fine.
But as soon as I reload my backup, it no longer receives/shows the sms'es being received. So something is block the sms from showing up. What program/setting would it be?
After installing slick, palringo, taptapsms, incoming sms not stored
I noticed the day after installing IM client, named slick, palringo and opening tapsms, i cant see my incoming sms after it comes..
it shows the notification 1 message unread, after i open it, i just see the history of sms of the same sender got bold, but only with old message, theres no new sms.. ( cant find the new received sms )
I've reset the phone, unplug the battery, its still the same..
anyone have a clue ?
I used WM 6.1 on my XDA IIs
Thanks.
I have a Sprint Touch Pro and the new email notification is stuck in TF3D. It was working fine for a few days, but now it always says I have 1 unread email. I am not syncing email with activesync, just using IMAP gmail. I removed my gmail account and did a soft reset... it still shows 1 unread email. It's driving me nuts! If I actually have 1 unread email in gmail, it shows I have 2. If i have 0 unread emails, it shows I have 1. Where the heck is this setting stored? Something is obviously stuck but I can't find it. Thanks in advance.
I seem to be having this problem myself, but with the voicemail notification.
Keeps sayins I have 1 new voicemail, but when i check it, i don't have anything there.
bump. I'm sure others will experience this. 2 friends at work have the same thing happening to them as well. Anyone have any ideas?
Try clicking on All Messages... in the mobile outlook window check all your accounts (sent, inbox, drafts, etc.) and make sure there is no unread mails. I had this happen to me after I setup a new account. There is a new default mail that is created when you create a new account that I had missed.

Having the same problem with "1 New Voicemail" in TF3D and the little icon in status bar I select dismiss voicemail notification but it stays there.
: Edit Myculito are you using Phone Alarm by any chance?
I just "tap and held" on the notification on PhoneAlarm and said "Reset Count" and it seems to be gone now,
Jules
Just wanted to post my fix.
I do not have the issue with voicemail, only the new email notifications.
The steps that alexk1f described worked like a charm... just forgot to update my thread that it was solved. Thanks alexk1f!

Jules, I'm not using PhoneAlarm.
I fixed the stuck Voicemail issue. I made a call, and left 2 new voicemails to make sure that there were at least messages there.
I then checked my voicemail from the phone, and all is good now.
There is a cab to fix this. Search through the English ROMeOS thread in the ROM development forum
So the fix was for vmail but not messaging. What it looks like is that TF3D has old text messages wedged in cached somewhere - I had two text messages that kept showing up despite deletes. They finally stopped getting delivered and the inbox is clean but the image and notification persists.
Try SKTools and clear the notification queue.
I have this issue too on my Touch HD
I have cleared duplicate notifications in the queue, but I am unsure what else to clear, and the 1 mail notification is still there.
Any other ideas?
OK fixed, it seems as though that damn ghost email had been created in two places, not just in my email inbox, but also in the activesync one, which I hadn't even set-up.
Probably worth going through every single folder in messaging even if you think you know better

Try this when you go to email tab select inbox and see if you have any email in one of your inboxs I had the same problem and when i went to inbox i found an email that wasnt being accessed from the tab.
Hope it works for you
Try this
fixunreadcount:

seems if you go accounts> then hit the account that its reporting on it will clear it. Works for me anyway. RSS hub does this also... well Dont try to read while downloading i think it happens when i retreive attachments.
