get the same result with default mail app. official hotmail app works though.

Don't have any issue here with default mail app. Did you guys set it up as Exchange mail or something else. I'm using Hotmail exchange server setting.

the stock htc mail app is a wakelock whore and doesnt even sync :'(

I don't know what that is. That's probably your problem. When I was using Samsung Galaxy S1/S2 phones, the default Hotmail setting always uses POP mail settings.
So, I always manualy setup my Hotmail using Exchange server settings:
UserName: your hotmail email address
Password: your account password
Server: m.hotmail.com

The default hotmail setup in accounts is newer, uses the correct exchange account settings. The problem is the sync itself, not sure where the problem lies, bit its annoying. You can manually create the exchange account and its still messed up.

I'm using the stock ics mail app and it works way better my Hotmail and Gmail accounts. Sync is almost immediate.

same problem here,
any solutions yet?

Hotmail Sync
I am having the same issues. It seems to be the stock HTC email app. I have no problems with Enhanced Email or the stock Android email app. I wish there was a fix for this as I like to use the Productivity lockscreen which only works with stock HTC email client.
It (HTC Stock email) works fine for my other exchange accounts and has no problem with push.

I've got the same problem, too since i've done a hard-reset of my device.
The integrated Facebookclient got the same problem like the hotmailaccount. Syncing failed!!!
Is there any solution for the problem? I also rooted my device now and installed a custom rom but the problem is still there and very annoying beause there are no more contacts on my device.

i get the same thing if i use the hotmail setup under accounts. i just used the generic email setup instead and it works fine for email. i don't think you get the calender sink that way but i don't use hotmail for my calender.

i have 2 hotmail accounts one from 00' and pne from 11' the second the newer working perfect the old one radomly working but never can send email from it

Mine is not just limited to hotmail...sync is experiencing problems...with facebook, skype n yeah obviously hotmail...anyone knows a workaround for this?

I do a factory reset and now both of my 2 hotmail account does not sync
So I download the hotmail app for now

Same issue here. Running Clean Rom 4.1 SE.
"Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly."
That is all she wrote.

Seems to be fixed on the newer 2.33 Asian region leak from today. Hotmail is working again for me.

Android Email Client?

Ever since I switched from my Tilt2 w/at&t to my Epic 4G w/sprint, I've been obviously using my gmail account more often. Thing is, the built in email client, even for gmail & even when I try it with pop3, just plain sucks. Also, I mainly use my hotmail account, which there isn't really an app for yet. So I have two things. 1. To find a much better email client for android. And 2. To find a way to get all my hotmail to my android. Now, I can fully access and export my entire hotmail account from inside outlook. But I haven't found a way to import pst's into android yet.

I lot of people say K9 mail is the best. I would say its the best of the non-Gmail apps out there. I can't use any other mail besides gmail because I'm so used to the threaded conversations. BUT, Gmail could be better for sure.

Use Seven email client (latest version 7.5.4)with homescreen widget support
It supports Gmail/yahoo/Hotmail/AOl n more
It is push mail client.
I see that you've gotten some good suggestions. I just wanted to tell you to avoid POP3 at all costs. It's a very primitive protocol and should really only be used as a last resort. Use at least IMAP.

Hotmail can be setup for push just like Exchange.
In the email app, tap Add Account, then put in your email address and password and then tap "Manual Setup"
Tap "Exchange Account"
Set the Incoming Mail Server: m.hotmail.com
Leave Domain blank
Set your username to your full @hotmail email address (i.e. include @hotmail.com or @live.com)
Enter your password.
Tap finish.
I recommend to use K9 mail. I use it with my 6 email adresses - 1 gmail, 1 imap and 4 pop3. As far I know hotmail does support pop3, so with K9 you should be able to check all your emails, including hotmail..
K9 is a very nice email client. I've used it for about a year now with imap.

Using K9 with 4 mails accounts, 3 IMAP and one POP3.
Works flawless so far.
K9 mail client is useless as it doesnt accept Exchange, this is ridiculous

Noob can't sync Gmail to Sense Mail App

Hi, all. Noob here. Title says it all. My google account has synched but for some reason, I can't add my gmail account to the Sense mail app. I added my hotmail account to it and it worked fine, but every time I try to add my gmail account, it gives me an authentication error and failure to login. The funny thing is that the gmail app works fine. But for some reason, the Sense mail app won't add my gmail account. Would be nice to access all my emails through one mail app.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thx.
Noob.
To get Gmail in the Sense Email app, you have to setup your @gmail.com account as an Exchange ActiveSync account. The server address is m.google.com . Everything will sync up just fine, including mail, contacts, and calendar. You can use push mail too if you'd like, or set an update schedule.
I setup my gmail account in Mail under the other option and it works perfect

It doesn't have to be a exchange account, I have it set up without that. You should go into your gmail settings on the computer and make sure the pop and/or IMAP is on.
Thanks for the suggestions. Tried all of it, but still not working. Weird. Not too bummed about it though...the gmail app is pretty good.
Are you 100% putting the right password in?
Do you use and special characters that you might not be typing correctly in the phone. If you do maybe change it to a easy password temporarily just to test.
It should be easy to setup, took me like 10 seconds

Email not sync'd properly.

hello,
Is there a solution for my exchange mail not syncing properly? The problem is that new email syncs fine, but when I change a mail in Outlook on the laptop, the change in most cases does not sync to the phone.
Some info:
Android version :2.3.5
Kernel version : 2.10.161.3
Can anyone help me? What do I need to do? Flash a custom ROM?
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA
Are you using Exchange mail? Outlook is delaying changes, I've noticed it too. Eventually they go through, on the next change. I'm blaming Outlook, because sometimes forced update still doesn't bring the changes, but if you do something else in Outlook and/or force-update it - it propagates to the phone.
Hi Jack,
Sorry, but I believe it is.something else.... When I use another client on my Desire (like thunderbird) the changes sync properly. However I would like to keep the stock email app. Problem seems primarily in the inbox. When I move a mail from inbox to another folder, it is present in both inbox and the other folder on my Desire S.

[Q] synchronising emails on default email client with pop3

Hi all
I was hoping you could help me with a problem i'm having. I use my HTC One S with my a pop 3 email account (Microsoft office 365)
However, when i delete an e-mail from my phone it does not delete the e-mail from the server. How can i get everything to sync up so that when I delete an email from my phone it gets deleted from the server?

I'm actually experiencing this problem as well using gmail. I recently flashed my radio and installed Tecardo's US script. Did you also do that?
I thought M365 supported IMAP also? Thats much more stable then pop3.

I use the stock mail for my netzero account.. i actually works fine after this new update.. I flashed the new radio, and tmous 2.35 rom...
whenever i delete mail from my phone, it wouldnt remove it from my netzero acct.. till now, it works fine after i refresh mail server.. it actually deletes it from the server,
in the stock mail... menu settings, sync, send & receive, check sync deleted items from server, and also delete mail on server...
hope that helps..

Outlook webmail sync

Does anyone know if you can get outlook web app to sync to your phone via HTC email app. I tried using the exchange active sync but keep getting errors. ? Would like to get emails and not have to log in through the internet each time. Supposedly blackberry users can sync.. but I can't get the HTC one x to. ? Any ideas.

I know in my case it depended on hte server. I sync my work email (which is exchange) on my phone, but only after they "enabled" it on their server (before that I couldn't).
Hmm. That may be why.
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda app-developers app
Agreed, check with your Exchange admin. There are a lot of security settings on ActiveSync and it could be that they've blocked syncing except on approved accounts.
Try setting up your gmail as an Exchange account. You just need to input the server as m.google.com. If that syncs, the problem is your work server settings.
I've never had any issues getting my Exchange email, though I use the stock ICS apps rather than the Sense mail app (which I detest).
