Hi,
Can't find any info on this. I'm looking ot expand the storage of my inbox on my Touch Pro. Right now I can only save 50 messages in my inbox and I'd like to save 100-200 so that I can view older messages when I am in a no service area. I realize it will take awhile to sync however, I'd like to find a way to configure the inbox to do this. Has anyone done this? Or know how? I'm using window's live mobile for my hotmail email with my TOuch Pro.
Thanks for your time and I appreciate any help.

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 saw people asking the same question here: http://discussion.wmexperts.com/showthread.php?p=1409571

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
Is there a way to enable outlook to store calendar attachments just like it stores email attachments? Whenever I get invited to something, my PC outlook will have the attachments but my phone won't have it there.
If I don't accept the appointment and keep it in my inbox, my phone WILL have access to the attachments.
Any ideas?
Wow. I'd have thought that SOMEBODY else had a fix or atleast noticed this.
Wasn't sure where this went and I rephrased the question a hundred times into Google and couldn't get a satisfactory answer. All I could find were IPhone threads, and one with an app for Message Notify, which looked really promising until I installed it and realized it only works with Today, but not with Touchflo 3d.
I was really hoping I didn't have to get rid of Touchflo cause it's really nice, just for e-mail.
So anyway I use Gmail, and I have my Gmail automatically label certain e-mail as it comes in and archive it so it doesn't show in my inbox, so on my Thunderbird, Outlook 2007 and Windows Mobile e-mail it will put these e-mails into subfolders.
On my Windows Mobile phone it only alerts me on a new e-mail into the inbox. Any new e-mail into subfolders doesn't tell me anything. I have to open my inbox, click inbox and scroll through my subfolders periodically to see if there's a (1) next to any of my subfolders. Any solutions for this?
Thanks!
Hi everybody,
I've god a dumb question:
Each time when I receive a mail via my mobile phone (HTC Touch pro) it's getting deleted on my mobile phone when I send/receive my mails via Outlook on my PC.
Is there any hint how I can prevent the messages getting deleted?
I alredy tried google etc. and I couldn't find any solution on this.
Thank you very much for your answers.
Best regards

This is to stop your webmail server getting full.
Your Outlook client is the 'master'; when it polls your webmail account it removes the copies from the server. You phone just makes a local copy, and leaves the original on the server for your Outlook to download and keep later.
You will find a checkbox in Outlook so that it will leave the copies on the web-server, but you need to be very disciplined to keep it empty by regular clear-outs, otherwise it will fill up and you will find messages getting bounced.
Hi,
thank you for your reply. Sorry for my delay. I'm in a hospital at the moment.
I know that my Outlook is the master
But how can I say my telephone that deleted messages on the server shall not be deleted on my mobile phone?
When my phone synchronizes first, all messages are kept on the server and a copy is stored locally on my phone. Now, when Outlook synchronizes, the message on the server will be deleted. When there is another synchronization by my phone, it discovers that locally stored copies are not available on the server anymore and deletes the local copies.
But I want my phone to keep the locally stored messages!!! There can't be the problem that the server of the mail provider overcrouds as messages are deleted everytime outlook synchronizes.
So, is there any way to tell my phone that locally stored copies shall NOT be deleted when the message on the server isn't more available?
Thank you very much in advance for your answers.
Greetings

Ahh, now I understand.
I can see why that would be useful. Not sure, I'll have a poke about but hopefully someone else will have the answer at their fingertips.
Gute Besserung.
Hi,
thank you very much for "gute Besserung" (bless you).
I feel quite good again and I hope to find a solution soon as it is quite frustrating, always to install all the different mail accounts...
Bye
My German is only as good as that I learned at school and have since forgotten much of it!
This might help:
In Outlook you need to adjust the account settings (I use Thunderbird for web-mail so I can't be specific), but there is a setting that defaults to 'on' which is 'delete messages from server when downloaded'.
It's buried in Tools Accounts somewhere from memory, it will allow Outlook to download the messages but not clear the Inbox on the server so that when your PDA polls the account they are still there.
Beware, it will fill up quickly!

Great question, just got my Hero yesterday and would love to be able to see all my unread Exchange emails in one location
I use a program from SPB. It gives your phone some nice features and also the possibility to oversee your mail.
try it.
spb.com

I use:
SPB Mobile Shell
