who has a large pop3 email account which stays working? - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

We are losing email accounts.

Is there anyone who doesnot have ...ir pop3 accounts)? And which ROM do you have?

I use POP3 but I never have more than 15 emails at any time as I clear them out. I use an Exec with the latest O2 ROM. There are two possibilities I think for this problem. I noticed that if I reset after a freeze when downloading emails over GPRS/UMTS (problem with previous ROM) and I had to reset I would lose the emails I downloaded. This is because they were not written back from the cache. Now I am wondering if email account information is also in the cache, which means you could lose emails and account information. Also if there is a problem with the cache and emails, large email accounts in situations where you have low RAM may cause a memory problem - just a thought.

I have lots of messaging accounts (SMS, MMS, Activesync, POP3, Gmail, Hotmail), all of which are triggered and used daily. But I am ruthless with email, read, respond, delete. Or I forward them to my home email account to be kept on the laptop. I also only retrieve 5kb of all messages, and choose which ones I need more of.
Never had a problem, never lost (except mms and used patch to fix). Occassionally hotmail drops off, but sign in to messenger and it comes back.

lost email accounts and "No GSM"? Then get a repla
I think I find out why my email accounts disappear: see
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=35196
I have the same things ("No GSM" after soft reset and then no IMEI, email accounts lost, etc). So its is a hardware problem. I will get a replacement for my Universal (MDA Pro).

Problems with Gmail POP3

Hey all,
I've been having some problems with POP3 and gmail on my TyTN/8525. That problem being: it doesn't work anymore. It worked great for about a week, then just stopped working for no apparent reason. I didn't change any of my gmail settings during this time.
After it stopped working, I randomly got 5 of the 100+ e-mails that I was suppsoed to get. Gmail is receiving them fine and I can see them when I login to gmail, they just don't get downloaded when my phone pops it. I can send e-mail through gmail's pop fine.
Anyone have a clue what my problem might be?
Thanks,
Todd

Which wireless provider?
Have you tried deleting the Gmail account on the TyTn and then re-adding it?
Can you POP3 access it from you'r home computer etc (to make sure it is not a Gmail issue)?
If these do not help post you're setup so we can take a look
I think the problem seems to stem from the fact that Gmail breaks down your messages in groups, like around 300 or so messages at a time. On top of that, Pocket IE doesn't download the full messages by default and, as such, leaves a copy of the messages on the server. I think when this happens, Gmail doesn't prepare the next "group" of messages to send to you. Also, Pocket IE, by default, is set to show only messages from the last 3 days, so even though it may have downloaded a bunch of messages, you'll only see the ones that are 3 days old or less. You'll want to uncheck that option.
Try setting up your account as you normally would in the desktop mail app of your choice, Outlook Express for example. Make sure it isn't set to leave a copy of the messages on the server. If Outlook Express didn't download the first group of messages, make sure to do a manual send and receive. That will hopefully tell Gmail to prepare your next group of messages. Alternate Send/Receives with your phone and Gmail until you get to your most recent messages. Also, try putting recent in front of your user name, IE, "recent:[email protected]" instead of just your user name/e-mail address.
i find with gmail that it stops working every few weeks and i have to go into gmail on my pc and re-check the Get all pop email from now, ( it seems there are too many emails to be sent down )
using the "recent:" prefix before your login in your outlook username should fix this.

Gmail emails not deleting?

Hi everyone,
I have searched the forum for similar problems but can't find anything. I have my email set to check email every 15 minutes. Even after I delete the emails from my phone, when gmail is checked 15 minutes later, the emails return once again as "new". On the computer version of gmail, the emails are still unread in the inbox.
How can I set the "delete" on the email tab to actually get rid of the email? (preferable send the email to the archive function of gmail)
Thanks in advance.
anyone?????
I have the save problem
Use activesync (with push) instead of POP/imap, works perfectly.
Mine did the same thing until I changed my mail settings to say "delete from server" and also "immediately" if you don't change your delete settings to immediate then it wont actually erase the mail until the next time it connects and downloads it all over again.
GMAIL not deleting - Windows Mobile 6.5
I'm running WinMo 6.5 Cell ROM on a Touch Pro 2 from HTC.
I have exactly the same problem. I delete GMAIL messages from the Inbox on my handset. Next time the phone does a Send/Receive it brings down all the new mail again from the GMAIL server. Basically the handset is not marking mail as being deleted, nor is it marking the mail as read on the server.
I'm using GMAIL in MAPI/SMTP mode on the handset as this is what is accepted by default when setting up the GMAIL account on the device.
I've no experience of using ActiveSync/PUSH for mail. How do you set it up?

I use activesync to download all my messages from google, It also pulled my calendar and contacts to the handset too, I found the instructions by going to: wwwDOTgoogleDOTcom/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138636&topic=14299 (wont let me post outside links, so Dot = .) Also on section 11 before syncing everything, I synced each item individually first then switched them all on as I was getting errors.
ActiveSync and PUSH MAIL for Google Mail is the best alternative for being able to hardly experience inbox and retrieval errors.
to delete emails go into your inbox and when you delete, use the left softkey (the bin icon) to delete and not the sense menu.
Gmail not syncing
I had the exact same issue. I searched forever until I found what worked for me. It appears to be an issue is you restore using nandroid. Here is the link on how to do it.

HTC mail automatic receive is intermittent?

I'm using a simple HTC mail windget (1x1), and I have the email account set to check for mail every 30 minutes. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
The mail is sure checked when the phone is on or when I go into the mail program manually, but when the phone is off, regardless of whether the mail program is running in the background - it's intermittent.
The only difference from stock settings - 3G mobile data is not always on.
On nexus one, this works just fine.
Oh yeah, this is for pop3 and hotmail accounts.
Oh yeah, and I tried k9, but it was superbuggy - creating phantom emails, then deleting some of my hotmail emails etc.
Any clues on how to trick the phone to check emails regularly on schedule?
K-9 is really giving me a lot of grief with "no subject" problems (though it checks mails properly like clockwork).

Why does my mailbox (Gmail) keep emptying itself.

Did not find anything in a search. It seems like every couple of days or so my inbox purges itself of everything but new mail. The messages are still in my inbox on the pc, just not the phone. I am sure this is a setting I am missing, but where is it? Thanks in advance for any advice offered.
Have you checked how many day's mail you are downloading? The default is 3 days and messages older than this will be deleted from your phone.
make sure you are using imap gmail.
if you are using pop3 it will do that. And also check that you have imap service on from gmail website. and like ^^ said make sure you have it set for more days.
By default mine deletes off the phone once it's checked on the PC.
I've been having trouble with gMail for a while now anyway. I use its Exchange feature to deliver PUSH e-mail, as it arrives. The server seems to disappear regularly and, when it returns, messages are deleted from my phone in chunks. Sometimes, it seems as though one message in particular blocks the account from receiving more for a while, then, suddenly, a batch will arrive. I wonder if this strange behaviour also shows itself with straightforward POP and IMAP accounts.

[Q] Emails Not Deleting on Device from Certain IMAP GMail Accounts.

Hi Guys,
I have a few email accounts setup on my phone, mostly Gmail, all with the same settings and setup with IMAP. Somehow most of the accounts work fine, but two of them seem to function more like a POP3 account. If I delete or mark the email as read from my phone, the change will update on the server and my computer. If I go the other way though and read or delete from my computer, the change will not reflect on my phone. Because of this most of my accounts show only a few unread emails, and two of them show 50 unread. Has anyone had a similar issue, and are there any thoughts to solve this?
I've tried deleting and adding the account again on my phone, and going through all the settings Gmail on working and nonworking accounts to compare. I'm using the stock email app on the Alliance KK Rom. Thanks,
Nila
