On my old WM3 O2 XDAII when an SMS was in the inbox it had its arrival date and time displayed.
On my new WM6 HTC P3600i SMS's in the inbox only show the arrival date. There is no indication what time it arrived at. I have mucked around with it quite a bit and cannot figure out any way to determine the arrival time of an SMS.
Did a forum search but could not find this question asked

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.
Hi,
I get SMS messages from different countries, in different time zones.
When the SMS arrives it has a date and time sent.
I cant work out the rule of this date and time.
1) Is it time of country sending SMS
2) Is it GMT time of sending
3) Is it my local time of when SMS was sent.
Eg
At 4.00pm New Zealand time I got this SMS from Singapore. Time sent was 6.00 AM in MS outliook sms window.
4.00PM NZ time is
4.00 AM GMT
12.00 Noon in Singapore
So go figure ....any ideas
But local singapore time
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,
First time posting here and have a problem with my I-mate so thought I would dip into the knowledge pool before I brick my phone or throw it through a closed window.
My i-mate ultimate 8502 will not send SMS text messages. Will receive fine and MMS and voice calls no problem. Im on Virgin (UK) it keeps saying" text message failed"
Its my first use with Windows 6.1 I was on Symbian before which I got the hang of but this all new to me, any help is much appreciated.
Welcome to forums
Have a look here:

Good luck,
Check the SMS service number is correct. Outbound SMS messages are routed through a particular number unique to your telco.
This is WinMo 5.0 but it's not a million miles away.
From the Phone Dialing screen.
Menu->Options
Click the Services Tab, then then "Voice Mail and Text Messages" in the dropdown box, and then click Get Settings...... Takes a few seconds to retrieve the info.
The Text Messages Service number for Virgin Mobile (UK) should be set to: +447958879890.
Good Luck.......
Hi all,
I have a Kaiser/Tytn2 running Athene WM6.1 on an Orange contract.
I have a problem with seeing some SMSs the HTC Home screen reports there being 6 unread messages in my SMS inbox. However, there are not, and I mean ABSOLUTELY NOT, any unread messages anywhere that I can see (honest, have been trying things for months before coming here with a question. Am not stupid!).
I have a feeling they might be very long txt messages that got "translated" into MMS, but either way I cannot see them. I have asked Orange, and they say there is no problem at their end.
Any ideas will be very very welcome! Thanks.
Lee.
