No more GMAIL... - General Questions and Answers

Hi guys...
I've got 3 HTC devices with WinMo6.5.
On today all configured gmail accounts (imap) have stopped working on all devices.
The mail client freezes on "Loggin on..." then goes timeout in a minute.
The issue seems because of the "important" lable added by Gmail.
Gmail settings -> labels -> important -> hide: got it working again.
Best regards

GMail Issues

I have 2 identical Fuzes, both have been upgraded to NATF's 2.2. One is working just fine, but one refuses to send email to a GMAIL account. I've checked the settings and it can get mail just fine, but can't send. Does anyone knoe of any problems with GMAIL and the Fuze?
For my Gmail account to send emails, I had to:
In the email tab, select accounts ->accounts -> Menu, Options -> select Gmail -> edit account setup-> next,next,next -? Advanced Server Settings -> Require SSL for Incomming and Outgoing email checked.
I think that should fix your issues, the "Auto configuration" got everything fine except for that settings...
double check the email account in question to see if pop3 access has been enabled, its in the gmail options (log in to your gmail account via pc and check it).
I had this problem yesterday and it could be the same.
Apparently there's a bug in WM6.1 that if the server doesn't answer once, it cycles to a blank server name. There's a fix out for it.

I orginally fixed the problem by deleting the account and re-making it but this is supposed to be a permanent fix.
Switching to SSL didn't help. I'm using IMAP vs POP but I'll check that.

Problems with setting up messaging account in iPaq 210

I deleted my messaging account that I sync via wifi to verizon.net on my ipaq 210 because I was having some problems sending messages and I figured I would start from scratch. However, when I tap on the new account setup option, it goes directly to the default outlook email account on the ipaq. I cannot find any options anymore that it will configure my messaging setup as it did in the past. Tapping on the add new account option in messaging does nothing except, again, bring me to the default outlook email.
Soft resets does not help. I would like to avoid a hard reset if at all possible. no new software installed except bejeweled 2 a few weeks ago.
any ideas besides hard resetting?
thanks for your help

[Q] Stock email app does not push or delete correctly

So I'm coming from a Samsung Fascinate, and so far I love this phone. However, the email app bugs the hell out of me. I have set up my Yahoo and Hotmail to sync through push. The emails sometimes do not come through for hours after they are received though. Additionally, deleting emails from my Fascinate used to delete them from the inbox on the server as well, so when I check through a browser, they will be gone. Now, this doesn't happen. A copy remains on the server, and I cannot find a setting ANYWHERE to disable that. Does anyone else notice this or have a fix?
Thanks
Just downloaded the respective Hotmail and Yahoo apps and they push immediately and correctly. Now I am trying to delete the email accounts from the stock email app, and it errors out. I tried removing them from accounts under settings and it says I have to completely wipe the phone as the accounts are being used by an app. What. The. Hell.
I think I have it figured out - it's in the setup of the email account and the server settings.
To set up a screenname / email address:
Main menu
Applications
Email
Menu
Accounts
Click add account
Select Others, not AOL
Enter email address and password
Here's the important part - choose the manual setup, not next. This will take you to incoming server settings. It should fill the settings automatically - IMAP / [email address]/ imap.aol.com / 143 / None
Hit next.
This is the outgoing server settings - again, auto filled - smtp.aol.com / 587 / None
Hit next. Then you customize the sync settings, name the account, choose your display name, and then hit Done. In Email, you can tailor signature settings, etc.
The key is the manual setup and having incoming and outgoing settings right - this fixes the trash syncing, allows folders to be displayed, etc.
Hope this helps

[Q] can't sync gmail. its stuck. after deleting and adding the account again

There is a sync error after i removed ny gmail account. I lost all the contacts but managed to get the back somehow but adding the account just isnt happening. Playstore works fine but my gmail isnt responding. I waited for 2 days and its still the same. It says 'sync is experiencing problems'
Did you go to Settings > Accounts > Add account or just on gmail app to add your account ? If yes, check if everything is checked on Accounts > Google > Your email. On the Gmail app, check if Settings > Your email > Sync Gmail is checked. You can also force the refresh from gmail app Settings up right corner in the mailbox > Refresh or from the general android account settings Google > Settings up right corner > Sync now.
Nothing i do seems to work. Removed the account quite a few times and added it again. It always shows sync is experiencing issues

Exchange ActiveSync just keeps syncing and circling - any ideas/solutions please?

While I purchased the XZ nearly a month ago, didn't move all emails/accounts, etc. from my HTC One (m7) until yesterday...
Gmail (Gmail app) and Yahoo (native "Email" app) work/sync fine, but I am unable to setup my Live accounts (one is a live.co.uk while the other is my university ID) under Exchange ActiveSync (that's how I had set it up on the One). Even if I choose to sync, say, 3 days (or a week) of email. The app screen keeps 'circling'.
What's weird is when I check the account under 'Accounts and Sync' - it shows that emails are sync'd ('last sync'd <date/time>'), yet it just keeps 'circling' when I try accessing that mailbox.
Has anyone else faced such issues?
Appreciate the help.

Steps already tried-
1 - using the 'Exchange' option offered by the Gmail app: this sets up the account as IMAP and there's no SmartSync option
2 - using the regular 'Email' option under 'Accounts & Sync': same, endless circling as mentioned initially
