hey guys,
its me again asking for something I cant find anywhere....
I have Energy Rom wich I really like.
here is my problems:
1. I cant seem to be able to go to email configuration to select the option "keep the email on the server"
I am freeze on the first screen and only the button "cancel" seems to be working.
I tried to delete the account and redo it but it seems that the advance configuration for the email arent available for an unknown reason
2. I cant find where to add / edit my signature in my pop 3 email!
Anyone else got that kind of problem ?
Please let me know!
Best regards to all of you!
To edit your signature, you need to go to the physical inbox. Hit menu key, tools, options. You will see a button called signatures. Select the account from the drop down menu then fill in the signature in the box. Check the boxes that apply.
The only way that messages are affected on your account are if you delete them from the device. You can choose whether to delete from server or send them to the trash can in your server account. There is no option to just leave it alone when deleting. If it is possible to set up your account with IMAP, you will have options for archiving your messages. I would suggest that instead of POP. Then all you need to do with a message is hit the menu button after your done reading and tell it what folder or archive you want to move it to.
Keep in mind these devices where designed with business in mind so POP access was really and afterthought. Its been a while since I've seen and option to do nothing with email deleted from the device. The other benefit of going with IMAP is that when you delete items from the server or your web client if that is what you normally use, it automatically syncs this action with your device. NO needing to delete the item twice.
Thats nice of you!
Hey Techitrucker
first of all let me thank you for your help.
when you say " To edit your signature, you need to go to the physical inbox."
How can I get there... when im in my inbox/ menu I only have:
New
Send/receive
Followup
Go to
Regarding the "leave them on server" thing... while waiting on a answer I figured that out by myself... and now I love it. I just leave them on my phone... then pop them on my laptop...
again thanks !
jeff
had the same problem... the problem is the menu items aren't visible... u need to scroll down from the MENU in the INBOX... there's no arrow - nothing that will tell you, you can scroll down... but it's possible =)

Is there a registery entry to make the email auto download the pictures instead of always saying "internet pictures blocked" ? Ive searched but dont find anything in the search related to this. Thanks
Have you tried selecting download attachments. Open your mail program, select tools, options. Select download attachment and uncheck the second box that limits download size.

That doesn't do it. The problem is Outlook blocks images from HTML messages by default. I haven't found a fix for this but I haven't really looked for one yet.
I'd like to have that as a default too... so far I've not found a registry key that covers this (YET!)
I suspect theres a similar switch for the "Tap to Scroll Right" function too.
The search continues!

When I try this, I don't see the download attachments and download size boxes. I am running Mobile Vista v1.3 by Confused Stu which WM 6.1 bases. Could these options have moved somewhere else or is there another way to get to them.
thanks

Ya i figure that there has to be something somewhere that could be changed to auto download. I just have not stuided the registery on a WM device enough to know where and what to change.

Hi Bill. The option's there - go into Mail and then Menu > Tools > Options. Select the e-mail account and follow the screens through until you see E-mail, Tasks, Contacts, etc. Select E-mail, then click Settings and you should see the bit at the bottom where you can select to auto-download attachments, and specify a maximum size to download. That's on my Exchange e-mail account, I'm pretty sure POP3/IMAP is a similar path, but I can't test for the moment as I'm in the middle of flashing/testing.
Cheers.

I wish it was this simple but it isn't - the issue isn't attachments, it's MS' Vista way of life "Everything is DANGEROUS, I must ASK YOU if you REALLY WANT TO DO THIS!" Everyone's asking this question on 6.1, haven't found an answer yet...

Sorry mate, wasn't meaning that as the answer to the OP question (I looked at the thread hoping to get the answer! This bugs me too) - just answering fergusonwilliam's question a few posts before.
I do agree Vista's "ask, then ask in a louder voice" is annoying (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=80sWifG40B0 made me smile) but it's needed because too many users just click OK to every box without reading it! Yes, I work in IT Desktop troubleshooting....
Sorry, back on topic - anyone got any idea if MS left a backdoor to get around the blocking of pictures in HTML e-mails?
Ya but in Desktop Vista you can turn off the Stupid Ask, Ask again, Then ask some more. I used to like the Mac commercial About the Accept Deny.
I was doing some googling and this is as good a place as any to find users who have a clue.. so Im wondering if anyone has had this problem or a workaround.
I have a SE X1 (winmo 6.1) I configured my imap mail perfectly, but the only folders my device download from is the Inbox. I have other folders that I use to sort mail into (via mail rules on my desktop).. which are not downloading mail at all. I can see them listed, but they all show empty.
I was hoping this would be fixed in winmo 6.5, so I upgraded my X1 to 6.5 and the problem still exists. Has anyone else managed a workaround to synce other folders.. to clarify in the diagram below .. is an example of my structure .. in the example I am not getting mail in my client 1 or client 2 folder
Imap - Inbox
- Sent
- Client 1
- Client 2
- etc...
I hope that makes sense
Hi
I've got the same problem. If anyone has an answer...
Furthermore, the folders of my pocket outlook, like "sent messages" are created in my web mail account (like yahoo), because the name of theses folders (sent, trash...) are not the same.
UP!
I also have the same issue...
May be somebody can give an alternative?
Sync other folder
You can sync any folder you wish by selecting it as a managed folder. To do so follow these steps.
1. Open your mail box.
2. Click the options button and select Tools
3. Select Managed folders
4. Select each folder you wish to sync then click ok
The next time you send and receive mail the folder will be synchronized.
I had this same problem and just recently discovered this solution. In my case I would send a message from my Yahoo email account and although it would tell me it was sent, I would have no verification after the fact. It was not listed on my device in the sent folder nor was it listed via the website in the sent folder. I had to send a test to another one of my email accounts to verify the send funciton was actually working.
PLEASE NOTE: You should make sure your sent folder is fairly clean before syncing. I did not clean it first and it had to sync over 300 messages from that one folder.
I have tried this, but it appears that only allows the sync via activesync and not via the normal internet connection (ie when you are not connected to your pc) .. am I missing something ?

This is the way to do it on Win MO 6.1 - I have this set up on Blackstone.
Unfortunately on HD2 (6.5) I can not find Tools and manage folders choice.
Anybody knows where it is hidden?
FOUND IT!
Before someone else spends hours looking - Disable Sense, go to win standard GUI - all settings are there. Same thing with repeat sound in alarm.... GUI is hiding settings!!!!
Why HTC thinks they know what I want to see and adjust?
Often I do not want it the way I want it!!!!

I think you'll find that the option is there, it's just not immediately obvious that one needs to scroll down.
From your home tab, do the following:
Email tab
Inbox (left soft key)
Menu
At this stage it APPEARS that 'Go to >' is the last menu item. It actually isn't. If you scroll down you will reveal 'Tools' 'Select Messages' and 'Send via Bluetooth' .
'Manage folders' is in the 'Tools' sub menu.
No need to disable Sense.

You sure? For me it worked this way (same problem). I've not even activated email-syncing via ActiveSync.

Hi Franwella. Excellent tip. I could not spot the tools option and you led me straight to it and now I have managed to sync IMAP sub folders with my Gmail account. Brilliant ! Thanks.
Cannot download messages from server over IMAP
Hello,
I would like to ask you for some help because I cannot find a solution to my problem and I really appreciate your expertise.
So, here is the problem:
Facts.
I have 2 email accounts:
- the main business account running on a IceWarp Merak 9.x server
- a personal account running on Gmail server.
Problem.
If I receive on both addresses (servers) the same html e-mail witch contains formatted text and pictures, then using the native e-mail messaging client of my Windows Mobile 6.5 HTC smartphone, here is what I get:
- on the main business account the message cannot be seen. What I see from the message is only BODY.PEEK[2]
- on the Gmail account I can see the full message, exactly as I can see it on my desktop.
I played with all the settings from „Message download limit” and „Download attachments„ for the main business account, in order to get it working. Here is what I found:
- any settings for „Download attachments„ does not change the behavior, the result is the same (BODY.PEEK[2])
- for „Message download limit” if I choose „Headers only”, download headers and then mark the message for download it is working. But this means that I should connect twice – more bandwidth and more time spent until get the messages. If I choose any other option except the above mentioned, I get the bad result BODY.PEEK[2]...
This problem is very annoying because I cannot read my business mails if I'm out of the office.
What do you think?
It is a server problem (IceWarp Merak 9.x)?
Or the native messaging client from Windows Mobile 6.5?
Can you help me to solve this problem?
Looking forward for your reply,
Best regards,
Stefan
Does anybody know how to change or remove the details for Facebook that get attched to the 'Me' contact in hTc Contacts?
I've changed account details and need to change them on my phone, but I cannot find an option to alter the stored details. If I try to do a status update on the currently stored wrong details it simply returns to the 'Me' contact, without any option to check details.
I know I could HR my HD2, but I'm trying to avoid doing that.
Thanks in advance.
So no follow up on this means it is not possible. i also would like to get rid of my Facebook contact in my rooted HTC Aria. As my facebook name is not my actual name.
Can this be done through the back door per say?
any commands I could try to enter. What happended to having full control over your phone?

Try logging out your facebook account in "Account Manager", it will asks you to key in logins details again when you reenable facebook.
If you're using Windows Mobile w/ Sense:
On Sense, slide over to the Settings tab
Tap 'Data Services'
Scroll down to 'Social Networks'
Tap the slider next to Facebook to revert from On to Off
Restart Sense {Optional, yet recommended}
Once Sense starts up, follow steps 1-3 again
This time, tap the slider next to Facebook to revert from Off to On
Enter your new details
Taa-daa!
If you're using Android w/ Sense, I can't be of much help, sorry.
and for wp7 users? any tip
this is very usefull too.
thanks!
Got an email with an address in it. Want to copy / paste that address into a new appointment in the calendar. So after banging my head trying to get it to work, I give up. Here's what I tried:
Built in email client (not gmail)
1. long press on address....nothing
2. menu button...nothing
3. forwarded message (to put in edit mode)...long press on address...nothing
4. tap on address finds address in google maps (which by the way it doesn't do while reading the email...)
5. now we try all sorts of convulsive activities in maps...still no go
Moving on to K9
Same sequence of steps slightly different results...but still a BIG FAT FAIL.
One would think after all the flack that apple took for copy / paste that this incredibly simple task I want to accomplish wouldn't be so brain damaging hard.
Please someone save me from the pain and agony.

When I receive a mail in GMail, a long press on the address in read mode brings up a context menu with the choices (Map, Copy). I choose Copy. I then switch to calender, tap to create and in the Location I long press and it gives me a context menu with choices (Paste, Input method). I choose Paste and voila, the address is in the Location.
Your correct, after setting up an IMAP account using the other mail client, the long press does not work to copy. Only the "Complete action using: AT&T Maps, AT&T Navigator and Maps". Seems like long press is there, but it is not mapped to anything.

I should ahve stated that in my first message that it works in gmail client. However that's not so good if you have multiple other accounts that dont funnel through gmail.
I'm having the same problem. I think I'll start shopping around for an alternative email client soon.
has there been any headway on this?
I have the same problem with my new infuse. I never realized how much I used copy and paste on my tilt 2 until I couldn't do it anymore. But thanks for saving me the trouble of trying to download K9 to fix it!
Just tested. You can do two things:
1. Click on the address to add to your contacts, or
2. Open the email, then forward, then select existing recipient, then address will be in address field and then you can copy.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
So, this is my dilemma.
1. I have a SIM Card. It has contacts on it. Android automatically recognizes them.
2. I have my contacts saved to Google. Android also automatically recognizes them.
If I go to enter in a name to send a text, it brings a pull-down menu, with duplicates of everyone. One is for SIM, and one is for Google Contacts.
The Contact list IS slow with Google instead of it being saved directly to my phone. I want to save them directly to my phone. If I do so, the "send a text to" list triples, so each name appears three times.
The contact list, I can exclude everything but phone contacts. Is this something I can do in Messaging? Should I give up on Messaging and its many issues and move to Handcent and deal with its own issues?
I check before I go to bed and it is bumped off the main page?? Where are the people who can help at XDA anymore? It seems every topic I post gets pushed away
So... anyone?

Why don't you just go to your contacts page from Gmail on your PC, sort them all out how you want them and then let them automatically sync to your phone?

this is the easiest method!
Go into your contacts, for every contact that has a duplicate, do this:
1. Press Menu Button and select "Edit Contact"
2. When in the edit contact area, press the menu button again
3. Select "Join" and pick the associated duplicate contact.
This worked great for me with all my duplicate Facebook and Google contacts.
Hope that helps.
