Gmail + WM6

I am using the default email software supplied with WM6 on my TMobile Wing to check my Gmail account. I didn't want to have an extra Java app installed just to check Gmail, as I am really low on program space.
I like how it works, except for one little thing - when I get my mail, it also downloads emails that I have SENT and puts them into my Inbox as if I had received it, or sent it to myself. How do I stop this? Is there any way to make the software stop downloading from the Sent folder on Gmail?
Thanks!

Are you using POP to access your gmail? In the POP settings on your gmail site you can create a filter to control which email is downloaded via POP, so you could probably create a filter which excludes sent email

Yep, POP3 access.
That sounds like just what I need. I'll check out the Gmail FAQ and see what I can find.
Thanks!

Ok I didn't see anything to fix that in the Gmail settings or FAQ. Blah. I may just access it via the webpage. I liked having the poutlook do it though. Oh well.

Hmm use EMOZE

You can easily create POP3 account in WM5 or WM6 and manually do send receive or you can setup intervals which pocket outlook will access your Gmail account. In fact in pocket outlook when you create new pop email account for Gmail the setting will be made automatically. You simply need to enter your email address and password
Anyhow before doing above you need to enable POP3 in Gmail Web.
acces your web gmail --> go to settings and enable the POP3 access. Under settings there is also a tab for email filtering in which you can define which mails should be forward to POP3
Furthermore If you wan to have push mail, you can apply for free http://mail2web.com account. It is free MS exchange service. Forward your Gmail's to your mail2web account and it will push it to your device. (it functions perfectly)

I think you guys are misunderstanding my problem.
I have it sending/receiving manually, and it works just fine.
The problem is if I send a message at home on my computer, then I get my Wing and access my mail, it downloads the message I sent from my sent folder onto my phone, as if it were in my inbox.

What exactly is "pushing" btw?

RVM,
as I mentioned go to settings in your gmail web account there is the tab of filters. Then create a filter with your email
i.e:
from : [email protected]
Pushmail is similar to blackberry email, email that comes to your inbox will be pushed (send) to your hand device. You save manualy checking your inbox.

That's what I did. I went into filters and there was no option to have it not allow the sent mail to be downloaded via a POP3 client. I may have missed something so I will go have another look.

Gmail IMAP must be the most confusing thing ever

Hi,
coming from a relatively literate PC user - I must say that Gmail IMAP must be something most confusing I have come across.
I managed to get it working, I can see GMAIL account in well, accounts, and mail is going back and forth the way it should.
1. Now, the problem are labels. I can see them listed as folders below GMAIL default folders, but they are all empty. All the emails simply go to inbox folder.
Any ideas how to solve this?
Also, deleting an email on my cell phone does not move it to Trash folder on Gmail account (on the server). Does this maybe happen next time I send/receive?
2. data traffic counter in WM. Where can I see how much data went over the GPRS/HSDPA connection? In total and in the last session?
Thank you all
Alex

think your imap pickle is more an imap thing then a wm thing as google imap in outlook
on my pc is the same way

You don't sound familiar with Gmail's label concept. Think of each label as a mask, and each message having a bitmap of its labels. You can tag each message with many labels. You label (move to folder) and remove labels (delete from folder) by masking bits.
Delete from a folder (including Inbox) and you've only masked a label bit. If you want to really delete the message, delete it from [Gmail]/All Mail.

Hmmm...
thanx all for the replies! Well, I AM familiar with the labels concept but then (obviously) it doesnt integrate well with the mail client in Windows, no? I mean, if the client recognises folders (labels) why cant it put messages into them?
Cheers!

I use FastMail.FM for my IMAP mail.
When I want to sync IMAP sub folders I have to go to:
Menu, Tools, Manage Folders and select all subfolders that I want to synchronize. (to make sure the content is synced, not just an empty folder)
Doesn't GMAIL work the same way?

Quite frankly, I don't see any advantage of use IMAP over pop and not to mention POP is faster and simpler

I see a lot of advantages.
My IMAP servers is pulling POP3 mail from other servers, so I have all my mail in one place.
I always have it backed up.
I can access it from anywhere, and read my mail anywhere.
(from my PC, laptop, Shift, webmail)
I can archive mail to subfolders.
etc,etc..
BTW, you are right about the speed. POP3 is a bit faster to check for new mail. I don't see why it would be simpler.

imap support push
pop3 itself does not

Lately I've been using Postbox on Windows and Mac. It's built from Mozilla code and has similarities to Thunderbird, but it's a lot more stable and a lot better IMO. Also, it makes using Gmail IMAP a whole lot easier.

Gah! Deleted my Gmail Inbox! How to recover emails on Android?

Hi all...
So I accidentally deleted all the emails in my GMail inbox. However, I don't have my phone set to sync automatically to GMail, so many of those emails are still there.
Does anyone know I can export the emails in the Gmail app on my phone to my PC, or do a forced one-way sync to Gmail from the phone? It seems like Android doesn't allow access to these emails other than through the app, and there is no export function, and sync is always 2-way.
It *looks* like the Android Gmail app is a sealed box - no way to export/import, no way to copy emails it stores, etc. Is this the case?

Wouldn't they be in the trash folder?

Nope, I permanently deleted them - i.e. deleted them, then deleted them from the trash.

[Q] Android: Saving emails?

I need to find a way to save Emails on an Android phone, no Email client will do that so far as I can find?
My ISP is POP3 ONLY and I'm unwilling to change my email address so don't say use IMAP or Gmail.
I have no problem saving messages on my BB or on a WinMo phone, why can't Android's email client do that? BB has a 'save' option on the email menu which moves the mail to a Saved folder, WinMo allows me to create a Saved folder and move email to it which remains after it's deleted on the server, exactly the same as any email client on a PC so why does Android not allow anything similar?
NOTE: I've set my PC's email client to delete message from the server when they're downloaded, that's not going to change, there has to be a way for the Android device to do that or must I go back to WinMo or BlackBerry because of this one ridiculous failure of the Android OS?

Not sure i'm seeing the problem here. If you want to save your emails just don't delete them?

Same for me. I'd love to be able to make email folders so I can organize the accumulated emails. Having all emails in the inbox just doesn't work and is a pain in the ass.

I believe you're correct, I'm currently back on my BlackBerry as one solution to the problem.

you could try opening a gmail account, sync with your pop3 account and dont tell anyone your new e-mail address

What Robbie said. You can have emails forwarded to your GMail?

Check out K-9 mail. The native email client that comes with android blows- it's bare bones and it's meant to be that way. The phone and the OS is designed to use gmail as your main email. Although a gmail account is my main email, i also have to use some other email account and the native android email app does't cut it for me. K-9 has an archive feature which will create a local folder and save a copy of that email. I am using IMAP and haven't setup anything with pop3, but give it a try and see if this app works for you.

I have set up k9 and tried the archive but it just took the message of the server, how did you copy it instead?

How to view outlook 2010 on Android phone?

At my home office i am running Microsoft outlook on a windows 7 system. Is there any app for Android that will enable me to connect to this outlook to see all my folders?
My outlook has tons of folders.. Like 6gig in size so it's way to large to store on my phone.

Outlook is your email client. What email system is Outlook connecting to? Is it POP3? Is it IMAP? Need more details.
You can try K-9 Mail. Currently have 5 accounts (work, hotmail, gmail, aol and yahoo configured) and it works great.

Except k9 eats cpu like candy.
Use Touchdown if you have an Exchange account.
I tie my nonexchange email to my gmail in the gmail settings (when logged into gmail with an internet browser), then my work email comes in using push IMAP through the gmail app.
There are options. I have tried a lot of email clients in Android, most of which I dont like much.

I don't think you guys are understanding what I'm looking for... I'm looking for a way to view ALL of preexisting Outlook Mail Folders from my Android phone? I have emails in Outlook Folders that are 5 years old, etc... I need to be able to view all of these folders.
K9 mail is just a mail client to get new mail, etc. I need to be able to view all my old email in Outlook Folders

what you want is an app that will grant you access to your PC's desktop anywhere:
here's one, but it's $25... there might be some other free ones out there, but haven't tried them... I know the amazon app stored offered a free one not too long ago...

Here is the comparison. Quote:
"They are both good.
There is a fundamental difference between the two in how they allow access.
Teamviewer requires the passing of a passcode from the party being accessed to the party wanting to gain access.
Logmein is setup such that the the remote party wanting to gain access can simply log in to another party's pc (logmein has to be installed on that pc). The party who's machine is being accessed doesn't even have to be there.
Therefore I would use Logmein if I wanted to leave my machine running, but access it from a remote location.
I use Teamviewer to provide online support to others that don't want to have a program like Logmein sitting on their machine allowing me to log in any time.
I also use Logmein on my Outlaws pc, so I can simply take over their pc when they are having problems finding their email etc. "
Also teamview is free and LogMeIn is paid. Hope this help.

I think Hindle1225's solution is the best since your folders are too big to sync over to your phone. By using a outlook app to sync only inbox,contact,calendar,notes and other "light weight" folders and if you want to see your 6gb folder, then you can use remote desktop software to view it through your desktop. Here are all software for exchange in comparison, go to syncdroid.net
Happy hunting...

Try Teamviewer. As indicated, it is free. I use it every day for server and desktop support. Works great on the phone but remember how small your phone is compared to your pc. The resulting image is very small and you'll be swiping quite a bit. Phone use is fine for restarting a service without getting out of bed. Much more and it's over to the laptop for me. You'll need to try it for yourself. It works and it's free. Even has a built-in VPN.

OWA Android App (QOWA) Quick Outlook Web Access
Hi all - My organization locked down our outlook email so I tried every OWA Android app out there and none worked for me. They all required something open on the server end such as exchange web services or WebDav. There was no way to get my android to work with my email except the browser, but the logout was every minute, requiring a retype of my username/password. If you ever used OWA you know what I'm talking about.
This QOWA is still using the native web interface so it should work with ALL OWA email addresses. This works very friendly with the touch environment.
This works for Microsoft Outlook exchange 2003, 2007, and 2010.
