Different email notification per account

Is there a hack to have a different notification/sound for new mail based on the email account?
Just as you can have a different notification based on know caller or unknown caller, I am looking for a way to have a different email notification based on which account the email comes into.
Thanks in advance
I'm looking for the same info. I have 3 different email accounts I monitor on my Tilt. My Yahoo, my daughter's Yahoo and my work. Regardless of which one comes in, it has the same sound. I would like a different sound for each one, so when I hear it, I can determine whether I need to check it or not. I did a google search and didn't really find an answer to this. Thanks!
I'm also interested in something like this. Any luck guys?
Same with me!
I am trying to change the email notification so the standard email account has a different sound than the corporate account. When I try to change the settings (Email Settings > Notifications), it is a global change.
Can I not have two different sounds for the email accounts that are from two very different entities?
Thank you in advance.
Just a thought, I've never tried it as I don't do Outlook email on my phone, but what if this email address is the same one linked to the person in your contacts? would that specific Contact then have their unique sound for any notification from them?

Change "FROM" field in Pocket Outlook for Exchange account?

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 !

Deactivate the eMail functionality

Hello,
is it possible to deactivate or to delete the eMail account?
Because I use only the SMS and I don't need the eMails.
I'm using WM 6.1 on a HTC Prophet
Thanks for response.
If you didn't make an email account, it shouldn't be there.
What exactly is your problem?
I didn't create an eMail account, but I still have an account entry called: "Outlook E-Mail" which has no specific eMail server and address datas. I'm not able to delete this account.
I have the SMS entry and the Outlook E-Mail entry.
I use SPB Diary where you can click on the menu item: "New Message"
Sometimes the new SMS window opens, sometimes the new E-Mail window opens.
If it's not clear, i can take a photo to show this to you.

Pocket Outlook-Setting username

Hi,
I have been searching for a way to change Outlook from naming all email accounts as 'user' when sending any email?
Is there a registry hack that i can apply?
Its really frustrating not being able to alter it, when the WM6 is meant to be seamless integration, but when ever i reply or initiate any email from Pocket Outlook it always marks it as 'user' [email protected]
thanks in advance.
moved to QnA, not dev related.
anyone have the same problem?

[Q] Sense 3.0 Email Questions

Now that people are getting their new phones I would like to know if Sense 3.0 has any improvements in the email application, specifically when using IMAP.
Firstly I would like to know if the email app now supports IMAP IDLE, which may be listed as Push.
Also I would like to know if you can have multiple "From" addresses per mailbox so that I can choose who to reply as.
Lastly I would like to know if you can have an auto BCC for each mailbox.
Thanks.
I guess I asked too soon.
Bumping.

Just a quick reply to this
1) I have my google mail set up in htc mail as an IMAP there is no option to set the update schedule for push mail. I cannot see any other option to set it up for IMAP Idle so I assume it does not work with HTC mail.
2) I have both an exchange activesync mailbox and a google email mailbox set up in htc mail. When you compose an email there is an option on the top to select the from address you are sending to.
3) In the send and recieve settings for each mailbox there is an "always bcc me" option. I just tested it and it looks like it will only automatically bcc to the same account you are sending from. You do have the option of adding other accounts when you are composing an email.
Hope this helps.
one more thing abt the new Sense email app;
is multiple selection possible for ex. to 'mark as read' or 'delete' purposes?
(asking as a potential Sensation owner soon)

Thanks for this. It's a pity that HTC decided to add eye candy to Sense instead of working on useful features like IMAP IDLE.
I just need some clarification on (2). Does changing the From address change the account or can you have two accounts with multiple from addresses?
Thanks

I don't understand what you mean but from what I gather it changes the account you send from. Only one from account can be selected.
I don't know if it is new but the Sense 3 Mail program also supports multiple exchange accounts.
Extra exchange accounts must be added from within the HTC mail application.
Now I can use my personal and work exchange accounts on the phone at once. 1 up over my Touch Pro 2.

Ahh. OK. What I was talking about was using it with an account that is a catchall. account
Say I have owned domain custom-roms.com I could have any email that was sent to any address at custom-roms.com all come into one mailbox. So email sent to [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] would all come into the same mailbox which could have the default address of [email protected].
However when it came to replying, say I wanted to reply to an email sent to "kernel" but I didn't want to reply from the default address of "admin", with some mail clients, like K-9, I could choose to use one of the other "From" addresses even though they all belong to the same account.
Ok I see now, setting the from address to an alias set up to the account.
In that case no, from your example you will only be able to choose the [email protected] account. The from addresses you select from are derived from the mailboxes you set up in HTC mail. It is not a text box which you can edit but a list you select from.
The only way to do what you want is to set up an actual account for each of those emails, not aliases and then add each of them to HTC mail. not really what you were looking for though.
I have a question. On my G2 I was able to press a button at the top of each email to "Show Pictures" to display the embedded images and content. I can see it when I bring up my Google account emails, but not my normal POP3 email. As it is the only thing I can view in my emails are just words and links. Is there anyway to fix it so I can view images on there?
Thanks for the help!
