So I read in various sites how the stock email app will cut off emails from exchange when you have outlook open on the desktop as the mail comes through. I am experiencing this since I installed the new Synergy 1.6 for my S3. Does anyone know a fix for this? Please don't flame me I search for everything I could think of before posting.

Hey all,
Stop me if you've heard this one
some of the new roms are downloading my sent items from gmail into my inbox. I've never had this issue with any of the 6.0 roms. Anyone seen this or know how to fix it? I've always used pop because I dont like imap and have never seen this before.
I am currently using 3.14.DK.01 UC 2.0 Compliant WM6.1 Lite ROM, but I have also seen this on the UDK 6.1 rom as well

The "fix" for this is to put in a fake email address right from the start. Let it fail the setup and then just edit the account after to what you need. Just an fyi though, this "fix" doesn't always seem to work. For receiving it is always fine but sometimes it doesn't send properly at all. There are other threads about this but I didn't bother to bookmark them. Another supposed fix is to put imap.gmail.com instead of smtp.gmail.com in the settings...I haven't tried this one.
same here
that isn't what he meant. gmail is working fine. all messages download perfect no problems there. but whenever a message is sent it saves a copy of it in the inbox. does anybody know how to make this stop?
I've tried the fake email and then manually configuring it, it didnt work on any of the other roms, I will try this tomorrow on this one. As far as the imap, I dont want to use IMAP, I like the way pop used to work. I mean if I have to I will but I want to try to get this to work the way it used to first.
This is the default behavior for gmail, it does the same thing if you use a POP email client like outlook or thunderbird from your desktop. I have never seen a real fix for it, on my desktop i used to create a rule that would move messages that were from me to my sent items folder. The only way I have been able to fix it on windows mobile was to set up gmail as imap.
yeah this is because gmail uses a thread type of system. As chambersaj said this happens on desktops too, as well WM 5.0 to 6.1 (all that I have used)
OK So on the rom I am using now, I entered a fake e-mail address to prevent it from auto-configuring, and now it works the way it used to. I know it does that for the outlook client, and thats fine, but it never used to do this on wm6, maybe it was just the luck of the draw for the roms I used.
Hey guys,
I tried to find a solution for this...havent found one yet. I have 2 gmail accounts synced on my captivate (running perception 10). One of the accounts is a google apps account the goes with the email extension [email protected] Now ever since I added this account on my captivate all the mail shows up read on the phone and on the online gmail client. All new mail shows up as read and it is really turning into a problem because it is my work account and I need to know about the new emails as they come. I have tried reflashing, removing the account and adding it again and nothing has worked so far. Any one have any possible solutions?
I am having problems with g mail as well. It will not send emails out but I can receive with no problems. I tried the email client built into the phone and it sends out just fine.

are you using outlook (or any other client) to pull in mail from this address? My wife had this same exact issue and we had to change her gmail pop settings to "keep gmail's copy in the inbox" as opposed to "mark gmail's copy as read", which was set originally. So when Outlook pulled her emails in, it marks gmail's copy as read causing her phone's copy to be marked as read.
hope this helps.
I have an issue where my Transformers email program deletes read emails. This happens if I open an email and then if I download newer messages the read email will be gone. I understand that the old emails from the bottom of the list will disappear when downloading fresh email but surely not fresh read mail that were downloaded an hour or so ago.
I understand that in the incoming server settings you can set it so you delete emails from the mail server as well as the Transformer but this is a seperate issue.
Anyone else have this issue? Anyone know how to fix? Are there any other alternative mail programs I can use?
Neil
I reckon you have a setting incorrect somewhere as mine dont delete themselves, and ive got 5 email accounts running through it. None are getting deleted.
An alternative app for you might be K9Mail, available free from the market.

Hi Neil,
Can you gives a little bit more info? What is the email account? Is it IMAP or POP3?
What do you mean "deleted"? Have you checked with another means on the server to confirm? Or is it that you can't see them on the transformer email client?
rio
The email account is pop3. When I say deleted I mean from the transformer, I read an email then go back to inbox and download new email then the email I have just read will have disappeared.
Tomorrow I will try this same mail account as IMAP and see how that works.
I don't think the messages are being deleted from the server, again I will check this tomorrow when I return home from work.
Neil
Ok it seems as though the transformer didn't like my POP3 account, changed to IMAP and it seems fine after a quick test.

My work email comes into my phone through Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync. Most of it works fine - my calendar and contacts are synched, and I get my mail fine. But, I cannot send, forward, or reply to any of my work emails. My coworkers are starting to think I don't like them
From reading other forums, this has been a continuing problem with MT4G. I really don't want to have to buy touchdown just so I can do my job. What I really want is for my phone to work the way it should. The most recent post I've seen online is a quote from HTC stating that "their Android devices do not support Exchange 2010". Is this true?
I found a posting on TMobile that gives instructions for adding an Exchange e-mail account using manual setup. Will this solve the problem?
I'd rather not delete this email account and then re-install it manually if it isn't going to help the problem. Help?
HI everyone,
I've searched a bit and see other people have the same problem with other Moto phones but I haven't found any solutions yet.
Using the stock email program I have 3 email accounts setup. It seems that when I have Yahoo mail setup I start getting multiple copies of the same email (sometimes 7-10 copies of the same email). Essentially like the mail app poles and thinks that an email that has been downloaded already is new. This happens with all 3 accounts (very annoying).
Worse though is that when sending email with my Yahoo account it is sending multiple copies of the email. Testing it out I got as high as 4 emails sent.
This is only happening with the stock email program when I choose Yahoo as one of the account types. I haven't seen it happen if I setup Yahoo manually and as a generic IMAP email account.
The reason I don't want to setup Yahoo in the generic way is that I use my Yahoo contacts.
So, anyone else out there have this issue or does anyone know of away to solve it? I'm guessing it is an Android/Stock email app and Yahoo compatibility issue and I won't have many options but I thought I'd ask.
Thanks
John
