All,
My email icon always shows 1 unread email (along the bottom) even though I don't have any emails. When I do have unread emails it's always showing 1 more than the actual (the small unread email icon always shows the correct number of unread emails). This is weird.
I've tried a hard reset many times.
Would appreciate any help in solving this.
Thanks
Alex
[Update] Fixed it. Thanks Mallman for the suggestion. Unfortunately it didn't work for me. It did however give me the idea to search the registry for all Unread keys and change the 1's to 0's.
Download this:
http://www.swampthing.net/FixUnreadCount.exe
and run it from your device. Worked for me when I had the same problem. I can't rememebr if i needed a soft reset or not.
the link is dead. other links available?
A soft reset is in order for this fix
Go to your inbox of your mail account then slide sideways to reveal the unused mail account (the outlook one i think) that has the welcome message in it that should be the cause of your issue. This happened to me.

Wow, this helped a lot, I found the damn outloko emial even though I haven't set up an outlook account. Thanks for this!
So actually i have the same problem too. The main mail counter stucked for me as well on 4 unread mails Is there any solution yet?
if you go to touchflow > email > inbox (bottom left) > inbox (upper left) > expand/scroll to the folder that has the unread email > open/delete the email
that should help
somehow it solved. I don't know how, becouse i've tried almost everything without any success...
solve!
Had 1 unread mail in my outlook account (I use GMAIL)...

Same here.
Fixunreadcount.exe didn't work for me cause the unread count was correct, there was an extra unread email hidden in the outlook inbox even though I did not setup an outlook account. Marked it as read and unread count was fixed!
Worked great for me - thanks! Stupid hidden Outlook email account...
worked!

I am using the default email software supplied with WM6 on my TMobile Wing to check my Gmail account. I didn't want to have an extra Java app installed just to check Gmail, as I am really low on program space.
I like how it works, except for one little thing - when I get my mail, it also downloads emails that I have SENT and puts them into my Inbox as if I had received it, or sent it to myself. How do I stop this? Is there any way to make the software stop downloading from the Sent folder on Gmail?
Thanks!
Are you using POP to access your gmail? In the POP settings on your gmail site you can create a filter to control which email is downloaded via POP, so you could probably create a filter which excludes sent email
Yep, POP3 access.
That sounds like just what I need. I'll check out the Gmail FAQ and see what I can find.
Thanks!

Ok I didn't see anything to fix that in the Gmail settings or FAQ. Blah. I may just access it via the webpage. I liked having the poutlook do it though. Oh well.
Hmm use EMOZE

You can easily create POP3 account in WM5 or WM6 and manually do send receive or you can setup intervals which pocket outlook will access your Gmail account. In fact in pocket outlook when you create new pop email account for Gmail the setting will be made automatically. You simply need to enter your email address and password
Anyhow before doing above you need to enable POP3 in Gmail Web.
acces your web gmail --> go to settings and enable the POP3 access. Under settings there is also a tab for email filtering in which you can define which mails should be forward to POP3
Furthermore If you wan to have push mail, you can apply for free http://mail2web.com account. It is free MS exchange service. Forward your Gmail's to your mail2web account and it will push it to your device. (it functions perfectly)
I think you guys are misunderstanding my problem.
I have it sending/receiving manually, and it works just fine.
The problem is if I send a message at home on my computer, then I get my Wing and access my mail, it downloads the message I sent from my sent folder onto my phone, as if it were in my inbox.
What exactly is "pushing" btw?

RVM,
as I mentioned go to settings in your gmail web account there is the tab of filters. Then create a filter with your email
i.e:
from : [email protected]
Pushmail is similar to blackberry email, email that comes to your inbox will be pushed (send) to your hand device. You save manualy checking your inbox.
That's what I did. I went into filters and there was no option to have it not allow the sent mail to be downloaded via a POP3 client. I may have missed something so I will go have another look.

Have an exchange account set up and also a Gmail IMAP account setup. Both have been working fine since Friday when I got the phone and flashed to NATF 1.1.
I rebooted my phone this morning following a Advance Config change to turn off Assisted GPS and now from the TF3D mail page, I can see my Gmail account, flip thru the messages there, but I can't open them or go to my inbox. Pressing inbox sends me to the account picker which only displays Messages and Exchange. If I'm in my Exchange inbox and flick to the next account, I can get to messages but not Gmail. If I try to add a new account named Gmail, it refuses since there is an account already by that name.
Is there any way to recover or delete Gmail without it appearing in the Account list?

You might have better luck posting this in the Question and Answers forum. It's a general question that applies across devices, so you will get more eyes on it there.

I just added another Gmail2 account. It's annoying to have 3 accounts on the TF3D, but I'll probably flash something else in a couple days anyway, so why bother?
Thanks for the tip though.
So I somehow ended up with an extra email account icon (the little envelopes on the right) on the Mail homescreen of my Fuze. There is no actual account for it. If I click on it it says "no messages" and if I click on Inbox, it takes me to the page that shows the different accounts (where there is no extra account). Any ideas on how I could get rid of this icon? Anyone else ever experience this? I would post a screen capture but I'm a bit of a noob around these here parts. I've tried going into the accounts settings, but again, there are only 2 e-mail accounts and I have three envelope icons on the Mail homescreen. Thanks for any suggestions/ideas.
Did you set up an email account on your fuze? Did you also set up windows mobile device center (or equiv) to sync email account (outlook)? I did, and had the same thing going you describe. My solution was to remove one of those.
did you activate msn?
it normally sets up hotmail account automatically.
Thanks for the replies. I did set up 2 email accounts, which both show up and work fine. It's just that there is a 3rd envelope icon that is not linked to any account, apparently. It's not an outlook account from Mobile Device Center, either, checked that (I have email unchecked). Also, I did not set up MSN. Hmmm...
Guys,
Is anyone experiencing problems with the automatic retrieval of email messages.
I have my HD2 set up the same as my Touch HD but unlike the Touch HD the HD2 does not forward emails unless I first hit Send/Receive.
Can't for the heck of it figure out what I'm doing wrong!
what kind of email provider are you using? i'm using hotmail, wich doesn't even has a pop or imap feature, but in email inbox, go to (right soft key) menu>extra>options and tap on your email provider in the list and go to sync schedule and set the sync frequency to: as items arrive. At least, this option I use for hotmail. It is a windows live feature btw.
I use seven from www.seven.com for my work email and my gmail account. works fine...

Guys, It's not the provider that is the problem..... That's why I mentioned both my Touch HD (which works perfectly) & my HD2 both share the same settings.
As to the settings you mention hyellow; I'm happy in how to set up sync schedule and frequency (again, I don't have any problems with the Touch HD).
It's frustrating, especially seeing as I don't consider myself a novice.
Sorted..... and it was down to something stupid I had missed.
I had the box ticked under "This netwok connects to a Proxy server".
Once I had unticked it I now receive my email messages automatically without any intervention.
A small item easily missed.
This was a 'biggy' for me.
I needed auto email retrieval set to the 5minute minimum so that if fellow surgeons needed to send me patient details I was warned in advance.
Thanks again to hyellow & zsilak who gave their time in helping.:

I don't know of any software that will allow you to turn off email notification on a set period of time.
Why not just set your phone to 'Plane' mode. That's what I do if I'm not on call and don't want to be disturbed by email..... Other than that just turn off the volume.
this is possible on symbian and on windes mobile with exchange....
Hy there.
I'm triying to configure my working email on my captivate.
Y have all the configuration information an when i put in on the phone everithing test ok, incoming and outgoing email.

We need more info. What e-mail are you using (hotmail, gmail, exchange,other?), which e-mail app, what version of android do you have on your phone and what modifactions have you done, and what are the settings you using? For example,
I am running Cog beta 7, froyo, and replaced the e-mail app with this opne here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8453938&postcount=99
I am running my hotmail, aol and att.net e-mails on it.
Hotmail and AOL was automatic in settings, but att.net required a bunch more
For exchange I am using roadsync.
I have Android 2.1
I'm using my working email with the same configuration y have on my outlook an everywhere.
I even download K-9 Mail from the market and used the same configuration and it worked.
the thing is that I what to use the standard that comes with the captivate, because amonge meny thing it has the link on the home screen and is like ussless.
Please Help.
thanks.
Did you change the sync 3 day setting? Press menu, settings, accounts and sync. Select the exchange account and change the days to 1 month. Also try sendin yourself a message, if it does not send or receive, there is something wrong with your settings.
Also if you are using exchange, check with your admin that your username did not get locked out, happend to me and I had no idea. If it is another e-mail, and not exchnage having an issue, let me know exactly which e-mail is giving you an issue.

use k-9 and forget the samsung junk. you can even put it on the launch bar.
k-9 is the fastest android mail app that ive tried. it was almost real time. not that 5 minute sync that the stock one and many others have. mail droid is similar but having both running k-9 gave the notifications first.
if you dont know how to change the apps on the launch bar, press the applications icon, press menu, change view type to customizable grid.
press menu, choose edit, move desired icon to the launcher.
press menu, select save.

I agree with Dani, if the stock app does not work and K-9 does, use K-9. If the settings are correct and it still does not work, it may be an issue with the app.
