I've had my Tilt for a few days now. So far I think it's great! I have my Yahoo email synced to my phone using Xpress Mail. It syncs fine but with my iPhone whenever I would open an email on my pc, it would be marked as read on my phone and vice versa.
Is Xpress Mail capable of doing this and it's just not working?
It's a pain when I'm home and receive and open 20 emails on my pc then have to turn around and re open the same 20 emails from my phone. Yes, I could just delete them on my phone but would like to keep them on my phone as well.
I've done some searching and found a lot of other email programs such as Seven, etc. but not sure if those other programs can do what I need it to do.
Thanks

I believe there was an option in account tools that let you choose how to deal with that

Hello everyone, this post is going to be a bit on the lengthy side, but I really want to try and give as much information as I can.
Phone: Samsung Blackjack 2
Platform: Windows Mobile 6
Carrier: AT&T
So to anyone who has used WM6, you know how on the Home Screen, if you go one section below the time and date, you get to the "Missed Calls, Voicemail, Text Messages, Email ..." strip? Well, I setup my three emails (@Hotmail,@Gmail,@Yahoo), and everything worked perfectly, it told me when I received emails with no delay or anything like that. Until one day, I created a new email @live.com, which I tried to setup by going to the "Messaging" screen, selected "Setup E-mail," entered my LIVE.com email, my password, and hit next. Unfortunately, because it's a Windows phone, which is ultimately a Microsoft product, it of course knows that LIVE.com is from Microsoft as well, so it prompted me to the next screen which said: "Auto Setup found settings for: live.com. To complete setup and download e-mail, click Next." And then when I clicked Next, it opened up Internet Explorer, and prompted me to download this Windows Live program, which opens up, and sits at a blank screen. SO, I go back to the "Messaging" page, and even the "Missed Calls, Voic...." strip, and my Hotmail is gone. Only my Gmail and Yahoo show on there. I have no idea why it did that. I'm guessing because just like it detected live.com as a Microsoft email, it detected that Hotmail is too, and therefore deleted it, and wants me to use that Windows Live program that it downloaded. So now, I try to "Setup E-mail" my Hotmail, I go through the same screens as I did with the live.com, and it sends me to Internet Explorer, which made me download the same program that I did with live.com. So this Windows Live program says that it's syncing my email, but it does nothing. It just sits there with "Hotmail" at the top, and nothing else.
SO my question is, how can I setup my Hotmail so it can update in real time like it was before all this crap happened? I'm honestly considering re-installing WM6.
I apologize for the long post once again. Your help will be appreciated!
I use SEVEN to instead of WM6'MAIL.it work nice.IST an good answer?
sorry for my bad english.
What is Seven?

I have the HTC Touch Pro and am having difficulty with my work email account syncing properly with the phone. When I first got the phone and setup the outlook email through exchange the emails flowed into my phone simultaneously. However a week or so ago I accidentally cleared all my data back to the phone default settings as to when I bought it. My yahoo email still shows up properly, but my outlook account only syncs when I am at work logged into our system, or when I log into the exchange network. Once I log out of the system, the incoming emails stop showing up on my phone. Can you tell me why I wouldn't be able to get my outlook email at all times of the day, even when I am not logged into the system? Really it is pointless to only have my outlook email update on my phone when I am sitting at a computer viewing. Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated!!!
I have VZW TP2 and I use an exchange server to sync my email, contacts, calendars and tasks across my mobile phone, desktop and laptop.
For some reason, on this phone, it doesn't update certain things that I've done of my desktop or laptop for a while. I even manually go into active sync and click "sync now" and it doesn't update.
For example, if I'm on my desktop or laptop and I delete a message in my inbox, it won't update on my phone until it receives another message. Even if I click "send & recieve" in Outlook on my desktop/laptop and then manually click sync on my TP2, the email won't dissapear until another message is received. Also, today I deleted a calendar appointment on my laptop (which was for today) and even after many syncs on both my laptop outlook and on my TP2 via active sync/send recieve etc, the appointment is still showing up on the homepage screen and in my calender.
Anyone ideas?
I am having trouble with mine syncing as well. In Activesync, I get an error saying something about the server not being able to be reached. It may be an intermittent connection problem. It was working fine up until a few days ago. Also, make sure in your Schedule in Activesync is set to 'As Items Arrive'.
I had a problem with syncing then realized from some dumb reason the default option on off hours was manual sync and not "push", after making that change my issue stopped.
this is not a question of configurationi...
i have activesync set up for as items arrive in peak AND off peak. all days are checked, and for safe measure - peak time is from 12a to 11:59pm. so i'm covered there.
BUT i have the same delay issue. i can sent a test email from another email account on my deskto TO the exchange inbox on my device. i will watch it arrive almost instantly to the web portal of that same exchange inbox...but wait 10, 15, sometimes 20 minutes for the device's activesync to "wake up" and decide to sync on its own to retrieve that test message.
totally ridiculous.
yes, it is "push", but it's CLEARLY not instand (or even "immediate") push. certainly not comparable to a blackberry (which i despise and refuse to use).
so far, htc, verizon, and my hosted exchange company have been unable to offer a solution. i'm told, "a 5 to 10 minute delay is totally acceptable when using activesync exchange".
that is totally UNACCEPTABLE in the professional world.
i would go back to using goodlink (as i did with my old xv6800, befoe upgrading to the tp2), but it doesn't work well with touchflo 3d. and to be honest, what's the sense of using the tp2 if you can't enjoy the the new interface?
anyone have any suggestions? can this be fixed??????
The delay in syncing emails getting deleted is common. I don't know this for sure, but I'm pretty sure I read that receiving a new email is the trigger to sync all changes in the mail folders.
As far as it taking 10 - 20 minutes to get new mail, that does not seem normal. I get new mail on my TP2 before they show up in my inbox on my desk and I have on all the "direct push" phones that I've had. Are there other users on your Exchange server you can compare to? That way you'd know if it were just you or the server.
here's a solution!
after speaking with trusted friends and valued forum members (thanks guys for your input), i've decided to ditch "the message center" (the aforementioned exchange hosting company that gave me that "acceptable email delivery" crap). i opened a newa account with another company that advertises IMMEDIATE email delivery via activesync. wish me luck!
I've been syncing mine with an Exchange 2007 Environment that I setup personally and I have had no problems with my Touch Pro 2. Everything has synced just fine. Make sure you double check all of your settings on your phone and if need be on the Exchange Server itself.
my company uses exchangemymail.com for our email hosting. We have a ton of mailboxes using all sorts of devices. blackberry, wm, iphones. I use tp2 via echange active sync. I get emails near instant. calendar updates are near instant. deleted items needs a new email to trigger syncing as I believe that is the way it just works.
the issue is prevalent on all androids: when using htc's mail to add hotmail (or sounds like any email), the synchronization is not quite right... if you have viewed or deleted an email, it is not reflected on the mail server and therefore the next synchronization you will be notified of "new mail" even though you have just read/deleted it.
everyone is blaming the fact it is a POP issue and the solution is to use Exchange or IMAP. there are MANY hits on google with supposed solution. however when i tried them out, i am still getting that annoying problem.
Use K9 mail. I have never had a phantom new mail with any of my non gmail email.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using the power of the dark side.
+1 to K9 mail
tried k9 for 5mins
it doesnt work very well with hotmail (according to the warnings) and i recall i had a problem with hotmail would put up captcha (the image verificaiton) and hinder k9's ability to get mail.
Go to your Hotmail account email option on your computer not your phone.
look for "POP and deleting downloaded messages"
There are 2 options,
Don't let another program delete messages from Hotmail. (If your other program is set to "delete messages from the server," we'll simply move them to a special POP folder. They won't be deleted.)
Do what my other program says-if it says to delete messages, then delete them.
Select the second one. It works for me. Your problem should go away.
For some reason Hotmail Exchange ActiveSync is not the true Exchange ActiveSync.
ah thanks. i recall they recently implemented that feature... that explains why my hero (which was working) also suddenly broke.
edit: it works. all fixed.
now i cant be any happier with my inspire (battery could always be better)
Hi all,
Not 100% sure if this is the right place to post this (if not could someone please move?), but I have a problem I could do with some help with!
I currently have gmail, hotmail (for personal emails) and the normal android email (for work emails) apps on my Galaxy S3. These are set to receive emails all day long, however as most of the time at work I am in front of a PC, I would like to stop syncing from these apps at those times.
I have set up tasker to recognise when I am in the vicinity of my work wireless router, and gone to the Net section and disabled auto-sync when the tasker profile is activated.
This seems to work perfectly with gmail and hotmail, however my work exchange emails still come through on my phone. I recall reading that this might be because there are separate setting for sync actually in the email app?
Is there any way anyone can think of to get this to work?
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: It does appear I just received a notification for a hotmail email too? But all others haven't come through to my phone today, so that may just be a blip?
Nobody have any ideas? I'd be happy to explore other ways of achieving the same...
