My employer uses Intellisync to provide access to corporate e-mail on pda's. It took some doing, but it is now running properly on my Fuze. However, Intellisync places the e-mail in an odd folder called "Outlook E-mail." This folder does not show up as an account in Messaging and can't be accessed by the email tab in TF3D. I can only get to my e-mail by using the right arrow to scroll through accounts, opening the Intellisync client or opening the "Show" tree view and selecting the Outlook E-mail folder. Anyone have any ideas on getting WM6.1 to see this as a real account?
Another odd thing about Intellisync is that it won't scroll. That is, within the client program, if a page is longer than the screen, I can't get to the unseen part. I move the slider down, and it just pops back up. I press the down arrow to scroll down and nothing happens other than the down arrow momentarily changing color. I assume this is some weird remnant from the process of porting from Symbian to WM6. Anybody know what is going on?

I'm posting this here since it's more of a general WM5 question...
I'm very happy with the new ROM for my HTC Wizard, and Push Email especially.
However, in Microsofts infinite wisdom I am not alerted when new e-mail arrives in subfolder to the main Inbox (however, I am alerted when I get new email in the main inbox). I'm not very surprised since Outlook 2000/XP/2003 works the same way, but it is very annoying having unread e-mail I don't know about.
Is there a program or a ToDay-plugin or a registry setting or anything that enable alerts for new e-mail in subfolders?
*bump*
I would very much like to have this feature as well. I receive emails when servers go down, and I have an Outlook rule setup to send the email to a subfolder under my Inbox. I do not receive any notifications when I get emails in those subfolders. Did anybody ever figure out a way to get this working? I have a Cingular 8125 (HTC Wizard).
I am sorry to bring up this old thread but I have the exact same question I seach around and didn't find anything. I also seach HF and seem like no one know if notificiation for sub folder is possible.
Can someone verifiy if getting email notification for sub folders is possible? I have a 8125 running wwm6 rom.
bump up to the top - looking for the same feature.
I am looking for this same feature. I am using emoze to sync my inbox and a few subfolders. I am using a AT&T Tilt (HTC kaiser) with WM 6.
So there is still no solution to this ?
It is a "feature" of Outlook.
Desktop and Mobile versions do not notify the system that subfolders have received a message. Desktop 2003 used to do this, and then it was removed.
I don't have a workaround for the Mobile version. On the Desktop, I use search folders instead of subfolders. It sucks, but it works.
The reason subfolders don't notify, is that most subfolders are used for non-important messages (i.e. spam, or system notifications). I get over 200 emails an hour about servers being up/down. So, I get a lot of notices. However, using subfolders, I never saw anything!!!
Yes I understand the rationale behind the 'feature'. But I have important mail in the subfolders. Unfortunately at this time there seems to be nothing we can do.
I was hoping a registry entry which would let us add a subfolder path or something like that.
Voice Command Will Tell You (sometimes)
I think there must be an event that can be trapped if someone (more capable than I) can cobble together a few lines of code.
I have MS Voice Command with the JetWare bluetooth addon. On my 8125 running WM5, I would get the read-out-loud notifications for mail delivered to subfolders. I've recently upgraded to a Tilt with WM6 and this bug/feature doesn't repeat.
I think this is a feature that many "power users" would appreciate... at least as an option.
Have a look at SPB Diary. This can show your emails on the today screen...including subfolders that you choose.
Did anyone ever find a better solution to this?

I'm sure there's loads of other places where this has been suggested. It just seems like an obvious feature to me, especially if you are promoting WM6 as a business tool.

Too many notifications...
On a related note, this question:
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?
Thanx,
Woe
I tried a version of windows live (& messenger) that I uninstalled later since messenger wouldn't work. But now in my sliding panels, I have the Windows Live email account left over even though the actual email account is not present anymore. I found a new version of WLM that works and it created it's own email account and added it to the sliding panel as well. So now I have 2 WL email accounts showing in the chome panel, 1 called Hotmail and it works fine, 1 called Windows Live which is the left over one.
I've searched the registry and files for some sort of reference to "bad" install of windows live, but can't find nor can I get rid of it from my sliding panels.
Any idea where the sliding panels is getting this email config information?
EDIT: Appears this has something to do with a database as I tried adding a test account calling it Windows Live and I get a prompt stating that the account name already exisits, so the issue is in the OS not chome. Any help would be appreciated...
issue is related to cemail.vol database. Using many posts I found a solution. I could have just deleted the window live stuff from the db but I decided to empty the whole thing to see what would happen. All I had to do is setup my exchange account again and I was good to go.

I've searched for this particular issue and basically haven't found a solution for the Pocket PC but I know one must be out there. Here's my problem:
I've got two Exchange Server accounts I need to sync on the same device (HTC Fuze, a.k.a. HTC-4600) as well as some POP3 email accounts. However, I specifically do not want to sync the calendar information from either Exchange account. I need a third party program, I'd imagine, to accomplish this.
I've seen where people have said it can't be done but I've been doing this for years on a Treo 650 and Treo 680 using ChatterMail+ application, which does just this. However, that's a Palm OS application and I've moved on to Windows Mobile 6.1. I figure there's got to be something out there similar to ChatterMail (which is only for the Palm OS). With one Exchange Account I've actually got access to the full Outlook integration on the desktop (although I don't want it) and with the other I'm limited to Outlook Web Access anyway.
Does anyone know of any software that can accomplish this on the WM6.1 platform? Any help is appreciated.
By the way, that's two exchange server email accounts (but just the "Inbox" from each - not the calendar, contacts, notes, etc.) on one AT&T Fuze (a.k.a. HTC Raphael 101) while still syncing the calendar, contacts, notes, (Everything but email) with my PC. Anyone got any ideas or am I ignoring some feature of the Fuze?
i believe all you need to do is go into server settings and deselect the calendar sync. also i think from WinMo 5 on we can sync to 2 and up to (i maybe wrong) 4 exchange servers.
Close, but...

Thanks for the reply, but that's not quite what I'm looking for. I didn't explain it very well in the original post but the two exchange servers only allow the OWA interface; they do not have IMAP4 or anything enabled. That program on the PalmOS, Chattermail++ with the Exchange plug-in, allowed those two accounts to sync the email somehow despite the limitations imposed by those exchange servers.
Also, I have to keep calendar checked because I want it to sync with my desktop Outlook calendar (I run my work OS in a virtual machine, so one of my Exchange Server accounts is in Outlook on a VM, that way I keep my personal and work appointments separate). That Chattermail++ did all this, so I'm really looking for a replacement for that program. I've settled on Flexmail4, and the only drawback to that is there's no exchange plug-in to get me into the OWA like on the PalmOS. But, that may have been a one-of-a-kind thing.
ok you can disable calendar in one server and not the other the settings are separate or all servers. but i know nothing about owa settings and syncro. Sorry i cant help ya except maybe you may wish to run a palm emulator so that you can run chattermail? Just a thought, i personally wouldnt want to run that way.Either way please post your findings im interested.
I've been playing around with the two browsers (Opera and IE) included to access OWA. The Opera browser will remember my login credentials for me, which is very handy, but it has a very strange glitch when loading the OWA pages; most of the time it will chop off the top part of the page if you are at all zoomed in (zooming in is mandatory if you want to actually read your email using Opera). The top of the OWA pages, unfortunately, is where "Reply, Reply All, Forward, Delete, etc." commands are located. You're unable to scroll up to them or zoom out to see them, which pretty much makes OWA unusable in Opera. Using IE to access OWA is better since the entire page is accessible. However, the left-hand frame with the "Inbox, Folders, Options, Logoff, etc." menu takes up over half of the screen even on landscape mode. So you've got to click and drag to expand the actual message area. Also, IE does not remember my login settings for OWA which is a pain.
So that's the state of my findings at present. The PPC program "Chronobis" (http://www.chronobis.com/) has got the right idea on the functionality I'm looking for, except it can sync everything but email! That's the kind of functionality (interaction with OWA) that I need for the exchange server email accounts.
So in the SPB Mobile Shell there is an icon at the top for email. When I click on it, it opens "Outlook Email" for some reason. I then have to hit the D Pad over to "Hotmail."
How can I make it automatically open to Hotmail? I don't even use Outlook email (don't even use Outlook at all on the pc). I have Windows Live installed, which puts a Hotmail account in Pocket Outlook, and that is the only email account I have on my phone. The "Outlook Email" that it is opening up to is empty.
This is on an AT&T Tilt running NATF AT&T loaded 5 final ROM.
HTC Home appears to open the Hotmail when I hit the email icon, so it appears this is just an issue in SPB Mobile Shell...
i wanna know the same thing, but for spbmobile 3
Yes, here same thing... searched entire PDA... is this possible?
yes...i'm having the same problem in v3. TouchFlo seemed to default to the email box properly but spb doesn't...anyone figure this out?
Same problem here,
Is there a possible edit so it opens the right default email client?I use hotmail too.
*bump
I'm having the same problem, has anyone found a solution to this yet?
Try removing the email widget and then create a new one. It asks you what account you want it to monitor. If you are using the widget that shows email, sms and missed calls together, you will need to replace this with the 3 individual widgets.
Happy SPBing

thanks for that i can confirm it works

I'm not sure if this has been solved or not but I was having same problem on 3.5.5 when trying to view my gmail. Playing around I find the widget itself has a setting to "Open messaging client" or "Open 3D viewer" I chose the 3d viewer and Viola.
How I got to this was basically getting into the widget settings, usually by just holding down on the widget icon and choosing "Default Action"
I hope this helps some people. Not sure how this would work with earlier versions though. I assume it would be the same. SPB Shell is still very much the same in a lot of ways.
Next question is how to manually tell SPB to receive emails from the server.
Hi,
I have a rather annoying problem with my Win 6.5 Titanium home screen. When I slide to the e-mail entry it lists four different e-mail accounts, but I have only two (and only these two are listed in my e-mail account settings). The other two seem to be two IMAP accounts that have been imported by my backup from my old Win 6.1 phone. But as they are not listed in my e-mail account list, only on my home screen, and because I can't open them (when I tap on them on the home screen, nothing happens), I have no idea how to get rid of them.
I already searched the registry, but I can't find them there. I also deleted the pim file in my root directory, but that didn't help either.
Any suggestions (besides hard reset) are really appreciated?
Thanks in advance,
dude
