ALL Mail in Incoming deleted after sending one!

I have this problem:
i use POP3 to get the Mails from my googlemail account.
If i have luck, my MDA received one of the Mails (not all Mails arrive). If i answer to this mail, the MDA delete the original mail from the incoming folder! Is this normal???
I have a MDA Vario without branding.
if anybody knows a solution or other good Mail Cliets for Windows Mobile 5, please let me know!
Same thing happened to me, the way I solved it was too set up a new google mail address and change the settings of your main address to forward a copy of each email to that adress. Then use the new one just for your phone, a bit messy but it works.
Thank you! I will try set. And another Pro of this is that i can download the mail to my laptop too.
Hm i tried that with the second mail account, but the same problem, and its realy evil: ALL Mail in incoming is deleted if you send a mail.

Is the problem with Pocket Outlook OR Gmail?

I am not sure if this is anything to do with the lastest T-Mobile ROM, but i dont remember having this problem before...
Basically poutlooks seem to download email messages i have downloaded before. Usually just ones from the same day. It's a pain in the ring. I remember having this problem a few months back with Outlook on my PC, so it could be gmail.
Anyone else had simular experiences?
gmail's pop support is squirrelly in a number of ways, that being one. I could never get it to work like every other pop mail service on the planet and said screw 'em. Being popular doesn't mean it doesn't suck, it's not outlook, it's gmail.
I had troubles with POP3 Gmail as well, I concur. I have no troubles with Yahoo POP3 access to PPC.
Is Yahoo pop3 free?
yahoo's pop mail is *not* free. not sure why anyone would want to pay for it though. unless it actualy works, which i hear it doesn't.
gmail is definitely messed up. messages always disappear form my inbox. i tried forwarding to hotmail, but it doesn't seem to update evry 15 minutes or even offer you the option to that i can find.
anyone know of a funtional, free pop service compatible with the outlook mobile?

If you goto Yahoo UK, it is free - you just have a @yahoo.co.uk address
yahoo.com is not free: $19 USD a year , ak Yahoo Plus.
yahoo.co.nz or yahoo.co.au is FREE
Dunno why ?
UPDATE : POP3 yahoo with the above only allows downloading to PPC email account. Not sending. As far as I can tell.

Gmail shows "Sent" emails in the "Inbox" folder

HTC 6800 (bell) using the builtin email app.
Every time i use Gmail to send out a email i see that same email in the "inbox" folder after. Whats even more annoying is i get notifications for this since the email i sent appears in my INBOX folder. When i check my "Sent" folder, its empty - even though ive sent 100's of emails from my device.
Anyone experiencing this? Anyone know what may be the cause of it?
I also have Lotus Notes emails being retrieved by my phone and i don't not experience this behavior with that account.

In user account remove recent:
That's all.

I was having the exact same problem, thanks for the solution.
Atropo - worked. thanks for the solution.
thanks!
ETA: looks like a spoke too soon, now it doesnt recieve any mail at all, and it deleted all the messeges that were already stored on the phone
suggestions?
I still have the same problem of sent mail being in the inbox as new mail.
Deep breath everyone...
You need the "recent:" in your login name or you won't get any emails at all. Seeing the sent messages in the Inbox is just a quirk of Gmail. Get use to it.
Any solution to this issue yet?
It would be nice to fix, but doubt it will happen.
I get a copy of the message I sent in my inbox on my 6800 even if I compose and send the message from the web on my Mac or from Entourage on the same Mac.
Like TC1 said, it's a GMail quirk...
Here's what I do to avoid loosing new messages and to NOT see your own sent items:
Setup a second GMail account, with any name you desire (no one will ever see it)
For instance:
[email protected]
&
[email protected]
Foward ALL mail from [email protected] > [email protected].
Setup your PPC to only check [email protected], but to only SEND mail using the login/password for [email protected].
And of course, use "recent:" before the username of the [email protected] account.
This works wonders. I've actually got about 7 e-mail accounts fowarding to my single mobile account. Granted, with this method you're always sending from just one account, but in the event you only have one and want Gmail to funciton properly, I find this is the best solution.
Hope it helps!

how do i get push email on my mda?

i used to have push email with my blackberry. how can i get my yahoo email to be synced/pushed? tia
Read some posts here in the forum. This topic is described very well.
You need an ms exchange email account (eg. http://www.mail2web.com). it's free.
then forward all your yahoo mails to this account of let mail2web fetch them.
configure activesysnc on your device to fetch the mails and thats it.
rgds,
Sebastian
^so does this service automatically send emails directly to me? after looking at the website, it seems like i have to go there to fetch the emails. im looking for something similar to blackberry's email service, where emails come to my device in real time. im sure it's a noob question for i apologize in advance if this has been discussed already.
It works flawlessly with this service.I'm using it for 2 years now, and I dind't have any problems.
Mail2web offers many services. I think you saw the OWA (outlook web access).
With OWA you can have a llok&feel Outlook displayed in a browser.
Search for a howto here in the forum, how to configure your device, and you will see.
It's an easy one.
In active sync on your device you can setup the sync interval. You can set it to: When item arrives.
This is BB style. Therefor you need 24/7 dataconnection.

Yes, the mail is pushed to your device in real time.
yahoo email forwarding must've been free before but now it wants me to buy the yahoo plus to get that feature.
Is there anotehr way of forwarding yahoo email elsewhere?
i downloaded ypops but it doesnt seem to forward
Mail2web, works a treat.
I briefly read this thread, and 1.5 hours later I had my Yahoo email forwarding to my NTL account which in turn forwarded to my new microsoft web access acount.
which in turn pushes the mail to my mobile.
On your yahoo mail page in the top right is a light blue link 'options'
select that and then on the right hand side is a link to 'pop & forwarding'
And that is where you enter your forwarding address.
Works a treat.
Now if i buy somthing on ebay, within 40 seconds there is a mail on my mobile.
pretty fast i think. and FREE.

how are you forwarding your yahoo email? Do you have the free account or paid?
bump(*_*) 666666
forwarding yahoo
It is just the free account.
Under your 'my account' add an alternate email address and set this address to primary.

Mda Push email??
Ive been following Jinwu57 post for a few days now and I would like to also know how to have my mail pushed to my MDA. I followed the post here & setup a http://www.mail2web.com account but it does not work for me. I am unable to sync my mail exchange in ACtivesync, In tools...Server source I get an error. This is very confusing. I have 3 email accounts which are very important to me. My solution was to open up a GMail account. Forward all other email accounts to my Gmail and have tmobile data check every 10minutes. Hope this helps you Jinwu57
Appologies, I had a yahoo group that was forwarding its mail to my NTL account. But I now do have my yahoo account forwarding.
On your yahoo mail page in the top right is a light blue link 'options'
select that and then on the left hand side is a link to 'pop & forwarding'
And that is where you enter your forwarding address.
This also forwards directly to my mail2web.com account. (small bonus)
I hope this is the answer you wanted (this time).

those options are not available on free accounts. Perhaps you obtained ur yahoo account when pop/forwarding was free.
yahoo mail forwarding.
I have only had the yahoo account about 2 or 3 weeks.
I'm not sure I described it well enough.
From the options menu you have to select 'mail options'.
then on the left I get 'pop & forwarding' options available.
You might have more luck with the yahoo clasic view.
Options (in the top right of your mail window)
then the option for 'pop & forwarding' is in the middle of the page under the management column.
also found this link that shows that forwarding is possible in both free and plus(payed) services:
http://uk.docs.yahoo.com/mail/plus/info/
I don't know that there is much more I can say, but if you have further question on this, please email me or send a personal message, as this is a bit off topic now.
Thanks.
Chris.

Yahoo push mail
Don't know if you guys know this or not, but Yahoo now has a mobile client for PPC and SP that gives you lots of stuff, including push mail. No need to forward stuff or anything like that.
I'm running that on both my phones and I must say that it is quite good. Check it out here: Yahoo Go! and download the client.
Quakie
Sounds good. There is an advantage to using mail2web, though. No extra app is required on your PPC, it works with ActiveSync and your PPC's email app.
and is therefore hardly any extra burden on the PPC's memory.
Good addition though.

[Q] Yahoo Mail Problem

what is the deal with getting yahoo mail to work? I have tried about 20 times to get my account set up using the add account feature, it keeps telling me my username and password are incorrect but i know that is not the case at all. I have seen some posts that say make sure wifi is turned off and such but that has not helped. I really need to get my TMOUS HD2 email working....would anyone be willing to share the incoming and outgoing settings with me for yahoo in the usa? Thanks very much!
Regards
Brett
