Hey everyone! my friend and i have hd2's but he has 6 email accounts and he was asking me is there a way to make all his emails come into one inbox like on blackberries...i suppose its called "unified email"
ive been using windows mobile for a year now and i cant seem to find a way to "unify" the emails..is there a way for this to be done?
thank you

Yahoo Email POP

Whats up everyone. This is the first thread I've started and was careful to run multiple searches and read thru a ton of treads before posting it. I'm hoping someone can give me a definitive answer as to if it's possible to get your Yahoo email via some sort of POP without paying for their premium service.
I've used XpressMail (I have a Cingular 8525) and that seemed to work, but it's just a terrible program that I didn't like. I do have work email that uses an Outlook server and that works fine, but I can't get my Yahoo to work. I don't even need push, I would be happy to have a program on my PDA/cell that will just check it every 15 minutes or so.
Yahoo Go! seems to be something that would work, but they don't have 2.0 for my phone yet and it seems there is a huge memory leak issue with 1.0.
Outside of Xpress Mail and Go are there any suggestions for receiving Yahoo email on my phone?
Thanks!

Works for me as normal POP. I have a yahoo.co.uk email address, and can use both pop.mail.yahoo.com and pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk, without paying for anything.

Cool!! I didn't know it was that simple, I've been using Ypops! for a while, when in fact there's no need for that !1
The problem now is that outlook retrieves ALL messages from my inbox folder. in Ypops I could retrieve only the UNREAD messages in the inbox, which is very helpful. I don't wanna download all 1700+ emails which are on the yahoo account. I know there's a possibility to keep a copy on the server, but it's not what I want... Its would take almost 1 GB to download it all
Is there a way to configure Outlook (without using Ypops) to retrieve only unead messages????
Yahoo! Japan also allows POP without paying for anything...
I would have to sign up for a new yahoo.uk account though, correct? I would really like to keep my current email account as I've had it for about 10 years now...

Yes, as I've also explained in my related tutorial (please DO keep an eye on my articles and check my even older ones - they may prove very helpful) at, say, http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=42913 , it's only the "standard" yahoo.com that doens't have FREE pop3 access. All the others do.
Please DO read the above article, I've explained everything in there.

Well, am I missing something?? I have a @yahoo.com account, I didn't upgrade to yahoo plus, but still can receive and send email through Outlook, using the simple pop3 and smtp settings. How is that possible?? in the internal setting of yahoo, I've set it up to UK/Ireland, so I could try the Yahoo mail BETA (which I didn't like)
Anyway - I take the chance to ask again my question - is it possible to let Outlook download ONLY the UNREAD emails in my inbox???
Thanks

I did read your excellent article prior to posting Menneisyys. It was very informative. I was just hoping that some else may have come up with a solution or if all the @yahoo.com users really are screwed.
Kamal- would you mind telling me exactly what settings you are using in yahoo itself and also in Outlook? Thanks!

I can access my account via POP3 on my 8525 for free. And yes I'm in America. It's pretty much the same way as the uk version just without the .uk

multiple notifications for different email boxes

hey everyone, i'm pretty sure i know the answer to this is no, but i thought i'd ask anyways.
i have 2 email boxes on my phone (work and gmail) does anybody know if its possible to have a different notification tone for each mailbox? i'm just wondering so i wouldn't have to check my email right then and there for an important work email when its just a personal email that could wait.

thanks, and if i get a for sure acknowledgment, i will close/delete this thread.

I could only find software to assign different ringtones to contacts for SMS but nothing for different e-mail accounts because they all go through tmail.exe which is where the ringtone gets assigned.
I don't think its possible at this point.
thanks, i wasn't sure if it was a single mail program (tmail.exe) that email went through or not, but that would explain why it's not possible.
this thread can now be closed/deleted...
I may have missed the idea - but if 1 (A) mailbox is important & 1 (B) isnt, couldnt you have A check automaticaly (and play a notification) and B check on demand (assuming B is basically your friends asking you for a beer etc!) so only the important mails interrupt you??
I know its not what you exactly asked for - but i dont know how to do what you asked, so i'm trying to find a suitable alternative. - hope its close enough!
Try PhoneAlarm you can do custom email alerts with it. Not sure if it will do exactly what you want but it may be possible.

Emailing and Texting doesn't like each other in threaded text on WM6.1

Hi guys, I had a HTC S710 running windows mobile 6.1 - that you guys hacked (New phone comming soon - S710 broke:-() and I wondered if you could make a few things clear for me?:
Firstly, I set up my hotmail and a few other email accounts, and ever since when I went the reply in threaded text I got two error messages, one of which saying "This account is encrypted. Please try again on a different account..." (Something like that - definatly to do with emailing but its been along time I can't remember exactly!), and the only way I could text is too read it then go back to contacts and send from there! Is this a common problem/has anyone else had this? Is there a fix?
Secondly, my new phone will be running windows mobile 6.5 and I just wondered if the same thing will happen on that. If it will is there a fix on WM6.5?
Now, I like threaded messaging but if there is absolutly no other fix, I dont mind living with out it!

[Q] Is it possible to import sms messages to WP7?

as above
i have some important messages in my touch pro that i would absolutely loathe to lose, and i'm going to buy a WP7 device as my contract expires this month.
can some kind soul with a working device tell me if this is possible, or is there any article that mentions it?
Thanks
I think the myphone service should do it...
http://sn1-p3.myphone.microsoft.com/mkweb/Start.po?mkt=en-GB
oh...yeah right
i clean forgot about it since i use spb backup more
thanks for reminding me
From what I have seen and tried I can find no method to restore the SMS from an older 6.5 device to a WP7.
Were you able to find a solution?
Nope-- there are even solutions to import WM 6.5 SMSes to Android, but nothing for WP7- it's far too locked down.
thanks for the confirmation, as I have tried a million things and I even looked at the SMS store and it looks too locked down to even write a app to do it.
Has anyone had success at sync'ing SMS from Exchange? I have got it set up but the messages dont appear to sync to the phone....have I missed something?

Nope, WP7 doesn't support Exchange SMS sync (or SMS sync with anything for that matter).
Ironically this was one of the features added to WM6.5 with Exchange Server 2010, yet its successor (if you can call it that) lacks it.
Might get added in a few years' time, once other more basic deficiencies are addressed.
weird that this phone addresses the joe-average user, and I dont deny it, but not having a restore/backup function is poor and a ovesight....

Hi
Do I understand it correctly that using http://sn1-p3.myphone.microsoft.com/...t.po?mkt=en-GB to upload sms through WM6.5 then download to WP7 is not possible ie does not work?
Thanks

That's correct, one of the best things Microsoft created for WM6 doesn't work with WP7.
If you copy your important SMSes to the SIM card beforehand they will automagically appear on your WP7 handset.
Thought of doing that but couldn't see how to do it on wm6.5 [I have another wm6.5 phone I could copy to sim if it was possible]
wow, surprised to see my thread bumped up
my sms messages run up to the many thousands
not very possible eh?
but then, i guess a suggestion would be to prune them and keep the important ones

[Q] Transferring Microsoft MyPhone to Android (SMS in particular)

Hi. I'm ordering an HTC Desire HD soon after many years running WinMo.
I have my photos and SMS backed up on Microsoft MyPhone. I use Exchange so all my email, calender and contact info will be easy to sync. The same goes for my photos as I have them backed up on my PC. The issue is the text messages (SMS). Is there a way of getting them from my current WinMo phone or from Microsoft MyPhone onto my new Android phone? Anyone tried this before?
Sorry to post again on the same thread, but I was wondering if anyone new an answer to this? I do understand this is a busy forum but I am sure I am not the only one wanting an answer to this one. I have tried to Google to find out if it's possible to get the data from Microsoft MyPhone to an Android phone, or at least (as is what I want to do) get my SMS from my WinMo phone to my new Android one.
Any thoughts will be appreciated!
Googling found this : http://android.riteshsahu.com/tips/importexportmove-sms-messages-from-windows-mobile-to-android . i havent tested, some say it works some doesnt.
Or try sms migrator on android market, i havent tried this either. (Bear in mind this is a paid app)
Thanks so much for this. As I said I did Google and I couldn't find anything and I was also wondering if anyone had any experience. The first link you mentioned does explain how it is possible to transfer sms messages which is what I want to do- so I'll let you know how I get on. Can't do that now as I haven't been able to order the HTC Desire HD but hopefully Orange will have some in stock next week!
