Unread mail folder on Outlook mobile - General Questions and Answers

Hello,

I have a lot folders and subfolders. Now, i have to open all folder/subfolders to see If i get any new mail. Is there a way to see all the unread mail like in outlook?
Regards,

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.

Email notification for e-mail in inbox and subfolders

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

HTC S710 Outlook Text

Hi Fellow Smartphone Users.
I have just moved over from a Treo 750V to the HTCS710
despite a few concerns playing with the handset did it in the end as i wanted a new toy.
Anyway the new version of outlook does not give you a option to select text from send messages. Some times you only want to send some text you have had in a email on to another party........How?.
I have tried sissor mobile and this will let you do it in a email you are writing but not one you have received?.
There was another program i noted Vitocopy however this does not seem to work on this handset...!
Any ideas?
Use Jeyo Mobile Extender 2.5
www.jeyo.com
Sorry rahulgty
Jeyo Mobile Extender 2.5 does not seem to have that function
If you go into a mail you have sent and try to access the text within the email you can see it but not copy it...
Again if someone has sent you an email you can again see the text but not access this text, other than view it.
Its crazy it is supposed to be a smarthphone.

Search Folders in Pocket Outlook?

I have Windows Mobile 6.1 which syncs with Exchange 2007. Exchange sorts all mail automatically into different folders.
Is there anyway to add search folders to Pocket Outlook? If I had search folders I could see all unread mails or all todays mail in one place instead of having to search thru all folders for unread mails...
Another question regarding Pocket Outlook, is there a way to have the today screen report about unread mails in all folders not just the inbox?
Anybump?
The Windows Mobile/Exchange experience is so cool, except for this little annoyance...
Doesn't anyone care about this bumping thing? Don't you use folders or what?
I would also like to know if this is possible, though I am suspecting not...
I would give a testicle to have search folders and some way to view another user's calendar on my WM phone.
Search folders require indexing which would be a major hurdle on WM.

Default email account/SPB Mobile Shell?

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.

thanks for that i can confirm it works

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
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.

WM6.5 no new mail notifications on subfolders

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!
