I finally managed to send and receive e-mails using my ISP's POP3 account. All fine with plain text. The moment I try to attach ANY file with any size I get the following error message:
Message attachment cannot be added. Check to make sure the correct storage card is in the device. If your device stores attachments on a storage card, you must insert a storage card to add any files to messages"
Aside of this being a very enlighting message, the files I`ve been tryimg to add as attachments were residing on my main memory in the my documents folder!!!
Any clues???
Michael
is it set to store attachments on the sdcard ?
if it is then i suspect that it require a sdcard even if the files you add are not from the sdcard
because attachments of the outbox will prob still be stores on the sdcard
Yeah, I have a SDCard. But I get the message when trying to send attachments from the SD Card or from the Mai Memory. I haven't unchecked the "store on sd card" option. Will do that and try again!
Thanks
Hi everyone!
Anybody has a guess as to how send attachments with the I-mate?
Hy all.
I have the same problem.
The first time the message appeared was after upgrading to 1.72 rom.
Now I have changed to 2003se but still I cannot send mails with attachments (even if I try to store them in my sd).
Any help, please?
Impossible to send e-mail Attachments over a GPRS Connection
Hi Folks
After a long abscense and several hick-ups I finally managed to get ROM1.72 up and running. Almost turned my I-mate to paper weight! BUT.. Still can't send any e-mail with attachments. Does anybody have a clue?
Cheers!
Michael
Hi everyone,
I had the same problem and after a bit of experimentation, and getting really annoyed :x I managed to fix the problem on my device - as I really couldn't be bothered doing a hard reset.
Open up Pocket dbExplorer and delete the pmailAttachs database
I'd suggest you take a copy of the pmailAttachs database first - so you can restore it if this method doesn't work for you
MCEITLIN, you're saying that after a hard reset (assumed since you changed ROM versions) it still didn't work? If so are you performing any kind of restore, for files or anything?
Hope this helps.....
btw....depending on your settings I'd suggest disabling the 'store attachments on storage card' option first - just incase this is also a factor.
Error sending e-mail attachments
I found the file PmailAttachs but I have no means to either copy it, cut it or erase it. Do I need a special tool for that?
Neither exploroe nor Pocket explorer or Sprite's Pocket Monitor aloow me to reach the file!
Cheers

Pocket dbExplorer allows you to delete databases - as well as editing them. Remember to take a backup of the database just in case
You can get a free 15 day trial from here: http://www.phatware.com/download/dbExplorer22.exe
Thanx for this tip! It worked like a charm on my Qtek 9090!
Thanks, that solution also fixed the problem for me with M1000. Now can send attachments using pop3 gmail account.
Good bit of detective work there, Webspider. I was about to give up on this one.
Glad this has helped people
I suppose now the only problem is making sure that you don't charge up a huge GPRS bill....lol
I know I use about 3 or 4MB a day...so glad my data is FREE
Cheers WebSpider - You're a star!
I have this problem but cannot find the file - could someone please tell me where to look?
Hi there,
although i deleted the file, i still have sending-attachments problem (on Qtek 2020i with wm2003). Any ideas?
so be it - manemoi

Hi
While im waiting for my universal to arrive (need to wait for 7th of november :-() i have been rading though this forum.
I was just wondering, now that it seems like ringtones for contacts has been integrated into the contact software, is this a HTC implementation or is it a microsoft? would the the selection sync to outlook 2003 so i wont have to set it up everytime i hard reset?
Regards,

ive not tried contact ringers, but i do use the contact pictures, which does sync with oulook 2003, i shall experiment with ringers shortly
As far as I can see it does NOT sync the ringers with outlook. But maybe I am wrong.
After a hard reset I had to do them all manually.
If there is a solution for this I would be greatful.
Maybe the contacts database on the Jasjar can be backed up?
Huib
Just as i thought :-(
anyone knows if the ringetones support is integrated into wm5 or is it a htc add on?
Regards,

integrated by microsoft into wm5....

you can store your ringtones on the root of your sd card....and can assign them to your contacts etc....thats a sly trick
so, you can preserve space on your device root....

And you think, after a hard reset, Outlook Mobile finds the ringtones where they were if they are on the storage card? Or better said: is the relation with the location synchronised/stored in the main outlook file?
When I search the Outlook fields on my PC I cannot find any field containing this information.
It is however a good advice to store them on your card because they take pretty much space.
I had the same problem on my Nokia 9500.

Ringtones on Storage Card
I used to put my rings (wma/mp3/wav) in the storage card. A problem I faced was that the Universal would sometimes need more than 5-10 seconds to wake-up/read the ring tone/play it/show the incoming-call-box.
I moved all the tones in my windows/rings folder and it is all okay now. I believe my MMC card is slow or may be it takes too much time after waking-up to power the card and read from it.
The tones are converted to smaller versions, so a 30secs ring i no more than 200-400k with good quality.

1. use the built in file explorer (u cant use resco etc.)
2. choose show all files
3. go to device root, and copy "pim.vol"
4. paste it on to ur storage card....
to restore,
copy it back the same way using file explorer....

I recently upgraded my Imate Jam to rom version 1.12 from 1.06. I used to be able to send emails with video or photos using the album program. Now when I try sending photos/videos via messaging using album, it seems to freeze or nothing happens. I did the Big Storage hack, so do I need to install one of those cab files to make this start working?
probably a good idea. I believe the MMS software is installed from the Extended ROM, because it certainly isn't part of the 2003se messaging app as standard.
One of them will need to be installed.....On my t-mobile branded magician, it was called...
"CAB-Acrosoft-MMS-2.5.0.28-ENU-MagicianAKU2.6-13May06.CAB"
should be something similar in your Extended ROM which will then allow you to send them.
Of course, it could be something else entirely!!! :?
Thanks!
Cool! I have that same cab file, so I may just do that! I even tried going into the messaging program and tried to add an attachment, which didn't work either. I got an error message about inserting a correct storage card, but my video was located in the main memory.
Not working!
Well, I installed the MMS Arcsoft cab file from the extended rom. It added the ability to send through MMS in Messaging, but it still cannot send photos/videos by clicking on the "send via email" selection in Album. I can't even add an attachment using Messaging. I get an error message stating that I need to insert the correct storage card. Can anyone tell me what I should do? I did not have this problem when I was using the Rom version 1.06 for my Imate Jam. I was able to just add an attachment or send videos via the Album program. In 1.12.10 rom, it is not working!
Does anyone have any solution? I saw one post where someone said they deleted their pmail attachment directory in the registry, and it worked for them; but I tried it and it didn't change the problem. I can't figure out how to add attachments to my emails.
Try to install all cabs from extended rom one by one and check for results every instalation.
I installed all the cab files but it still did not let me add attachments via messaging or album. However, I did a hard reset and tried attachments - it worked perfectly. I am not sure what caused the problem, but I hope it isn't the BT patch. I plan on doing a restore w/ Sprite Backup and hope it still works.
I have problem to access messaging, Email n SMS.
Even I click SMS and Email icon on HTC 6 tab. and also start\message doesn't work at all.
Until this morning WM6 Helmi works flawlessly. Still receive 8 email from gmail, (I set to retrieve it per 1 hour). After I close that message then I cannot access it again.
I think windows\tmail.exe was broken.
Anyone can help please ?
Storage card error
I've a similar problem.
If you have checked the option to storage the attachments on the storage card maybe the attach file is corrupted. Try to delete this file with the file explorer/total commander from the storage card (it's a file like inbox.*****) It works for me.

Thanks for your attention.
I think you're right, the problem appear when I set the attachment to be stored in Storage Card.
But, I already Hard Reset my BA, when I set that option again, then the problem came again.
Then I did hard reset again, I didn't check that option and no problem at all.
Until today my BA with Helmi WM6 still fast and stable, even with so many installed application.
I Love This ROM.
when I try to attach files to my email message (through IE), browsing on my Blackstone start looking for "all maps / all file types". It doesnt work anymore and it never comes back! So, only reset can help.
Is there any solution how to solve this problem (registry??)?
thank you
hi, just got my phone, i am having trouble with a few things but I have found most fixes.
One thing I cannot understand is that my emails are getting automatically deleted.
I forgot mmy USB cable today at work and wanted to get a CAB to my phone but when i recieve the message and download the attachment it refuses to open or save as, then the message just disapears from my inbox. I have tried sending the CAB, renaming the CAB as.txt and RARing it up, no joy.
Any ideas?
