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...

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.
Heres an interesting one for you, I have had the issue for a few months now and I've never bothered to fix it as I have always been telling myself ill flash a new Rom some day and that will fix it.
Anyway, the email tab in manilla has lost my exchange account. syncs, works fine, but its just not a selectable mailbox in manilla.. strangley however, if an unread email pops into my exchange account manilla adds the unread message count on the tab at the bottom, there is just no icon on the right to pick the exhange account anymore.
IE right now I have 16 un-read emails (icon on the bottom) when I goto the mail tab i see my IMAP account on the right and the most recent message from my imap account is displayed, no unread messages and compose new message.
I think from memory i was playing around with other accounts when this happened, I've tried adding other accounts, they all get a new tab.
Does anyone know if this info is stored in the registry or any fix for this?
Hi,
I am using Pocket Outlook, which I have synchronising with my Exchange server, on Windows Mobile 6.1 Prof (Touch HD).
I need to be able to send email from two different email addresses (i.e. change the "FROM" field). I can't see a way to do this in Pocket Outlook. Would be grateful if someone could tell me how; I can't imagine such a straightforward feature has been omitted? I can do this fine within normal Outlook, connected to the same Exchange account.
Ideally, it would automatically select the correct address when I am replying to a message so that it matches the address to which the originally message was sent. Is this possible?
Thanks,
Richard.
Hi RIchard,
You can indees send from any account you wish. On you message tab on touchflo, select the account you want to send from, then just press the new message tab next to the envelope. Or go into inbox from any account, selct the account you want to send from, then menu and new message
btw, the touch hd is so tasty!! yh?

I dont get what your problem is? I have my main email via Exchange and 2 addtional pop 3 mail accounts. On the home message tab it shows 3 envelopes on the right hand side of the screen, one for each account. If i want to send an email from a pop3 account, i just press the envelope and it will send an email from that account?!?
You cannot sync email via active sync if you have an exchange mail set up, but that is your only limitation, as far as i know....

Hi,
I think that the problem is as follows (well at least I have this problem )
I use google sync to give me push mail and forward my company email to google (to get it pushed).
If I reply to this email on my PPC (from the outlook mail account) then the recipient will see the reply coming from the google address rather than my company address.
So, I need to reply to the mail on PPC using my Outlook account to get the original subject and the original mail and then change the "from" field on the email to send from my company account (also setup on the phone).
Even a registry hack would do; to always send from the company account when in the Outlook exchange account.
I've done a lot of searching and found no solution to this.
In need of help !
if i go into emails it downloads them no problem, next time i go into emails it deletes the ones already there, yet i don't receive these emails on my PC either .Why is it deleting them and is there any way to stop it
Are you using the GMail client or the other one ("Email")?
If the latter, are you using POP/IMAP, or Exchange? If it's not Exchange, I'd suggest you embrace your GMail account - you can configure it to collect email from other accounts - and use the GMail app. This has the extra advantages that you have a central contacts list, and can view your emails on any computer with a browser too.
use the other email and its a pop account ,so are you saying use g mail and set up my pop account on there, already have my g mail account set up on the email appr
There is most likely a setting to remove the mail off the server when you pull it into the app, thus deleting it off your regular mail server, and why you aren't seeing it on your pc. I'd poke around the settings a bunch and see what is up.

I set up a few POP accounts in the appropriate client, but I think the only 'delete/remove from server' option was only when emails were deleted locally. I'm not sure about the default behavior - whether it is 'download and remove from server' or just 'download a copy and leave on server'.
checking in the client settings, it's under Incoming Settings, and the options are only
"Delete email from server -"
and the two options are 'When I delete from Inbox' or 'never'.
That tells me the client should NOT be removing/deleting emails from the server except possibly when you delete a mail from the inbox. IIRC, the default setting was 'never'.
Combat, do you perhaps have a client running on a computer somewhere that may be periodically checking and removing the mail from the server? This is a common thing with email servers - someone leaves an email program running on a computer which is set to download and remove mail from the server... then the mail doesn't show up on their phone.
Incoming setting were set as never delete mail from server so unchecked it and rechecked it again ill see what happens

There's probably a setting in the Email app for leaving mail on the server, but personally I get my GMail account to pick up mail for all my POP accounts.
You can configure GMail (through the web interface) so that you can send emails out as if from your other accounts too.
For example, if someone emails me at [email protected] then it gets picked up by my Gmail account. If I then hit reply, GMail will use [email protected] as the 'from' address. If I reply to an email sent to my gmail.com address, the reply will come from my gmail.com address.
So you don't have to mess around with 2 different apps, you have all your email in one place, accessible from anywhere, with a single contacts list. Win/Win.
I have several accounts set up on my phone, all send and receive ok, but when I open up any of the accounts (except the exchange account) they only show unread mail. Any other mail in the inbox is not visible, although when on my computer outlook displays all inbox mail. Only had the phone a few days and cannot see what I settings I need to change, cannot find any threads relating to this.
It's a pain because I cannot lookup previous emails for info. etc.
Thanks in advance if anyone can point me in the right direction
IMAP vs POP
I am assuming that you have your outlook set up to access your email account using POP which causes Outlook to physically download and remove the data from the server. If you change your Outlook settings to use IMAP instead then the data will live on the server and you can access it from your computer, your phone, another computer using web-access etc.
To get this set up you can search the web for IMAP directions for your specific provider and outlook along with your phone.
Hope this helps.
Bob
Try to increase the sync duration for the seperate accounts. Are you going to individual accounts or trying to look at it from the combined view. Removing the account and adding back might help too.
Thanks for the replies, I had worked around the problem by forwarding any email from the 2 problem accounts to gmail. However they are POP accounts so will try altering to IMAP to see if that cures the problem.
Thanks again
