Quick question...
Is there any hack that will allow the TyTN to alert me to a new incoming email even if I'm in the Outlook inbox? I find it frustrating, that if I forget to exit Outlook, I will no longer be alerted to a new email. Additionally, it's just easier to already be in Outlook for a quick glance down at an email that just arrived.
Thanks in advance!

Hi all,
I've just started using Exchange with my 8125. I have rules on the server that automatically move incoming mail to specific folders. This is great on the desktop because there is an "unread" mail folder that displays all of the unread mail.
The issue on the phone is that when a new mail arrives through exchange, it is moved automatically to the folder without any alerts. I actually have to dig down into the folder to realize that there's a new unread email.
- Is there anything equivelent to an "unread" folder on the WM5?
- Are there any 3rd party programs that will alert of new email and/or display the new emails?
- Are there betters ways/methods for accessing email?
Thank you in advance for your assitance!
Cheers!

Hello there Lu.
I too am learning Exchange. As someone who does not have an Exchange account at work (we use Groupwise) I signed up for a personal Exchange account. So between that and my pobox.com account I think I am spending a little over $100.00/yr on email. Plus data fees, etc. WOW!!
But on to your questions.........
The best that I have been able to find is that one can only get alerts on the Today screen when a message hits the "Inbox". So if you want to see if any of your other folders have gotten messages you'll have to navigate to them.
As for a universal "Unread" folder I know of no way to do that either. Hopefully someone here will correct me but I don't think so.

David
Hi folks,
Apologies if this has been asked elsewhere.
For some reason, I have my push email set up to connect to my mail2web account. However, when I receive new email in it, the Messaging plugin on the Today screen doesn't show anything, although it works fine when I receive new POP3 or SMS messages.
Any ideas?
I really need some help here.
I have a WM6 Moto Q9m. My challenge is with email, and notifications. First of all, I am using ActiveSync just fine with Exchange 2003 (soon to be 2007 ). I have configured a second email account for POP3 to a mailbox that I need to monitor 24x7. Here is what I can not figure out:
1. On the home screen (default vzw profile) I have the email shortcuts for each account to include "email (outlook)" SMS, MMS, and VMail. I do not have, nor can figure out how to get a shortcut for my POP3 mailbox. When I get a new email to my pop3 inbox, I get an audio notification, but I can not see at a glance how many items are unread in that pop3 mailbox like I can in the "Email" shortcut. In WM5, the pop3 mailbox would show on the home screen in addition to the default outlook mailobx.
2. I would really like to change the audio notification to be different for the pop3 mailbox, than the default outlook mailbox. As I am monitoring the pop3 mailbox 24x7, I would like to have a "pager" sound to differentiate the pop3 email notification from the default email notification.
I know there is someone that can shed some light here. I have searched the registry but can not figure these out! Thank You!
Thanks for reading this request...
Some how I have got an indication of 2 emails on the email indictor on my ORANGE UK Touch 3G.
I have checked for emails on the device but can't find anything I've missed. Any thoughts how to correct the indicator..
Thanks Phil
go to your email inbox. In the upper left corner, it should say inbox. If you click on it, you get a list of other folders, including sent, bulk, and trash. You might have one that says "Outlook Email" Check in that folder for unread emails. Probably have the subject "Email tips and tricks".
Hi,
Thanks for that, must have missed those Outlook ones tucked away....
Phil
No prob. Always comes up after you set up a new exchange or activesync or something. forget which does it.
little bit off topic
Is it possible to get rid of Outlook E-mail folders?
I sync only my contacts and calendar from Outlook, never email. It is not ticked. My default email program on my desktop PC is Windows Mail, not Outlook. But the Outlook folders are there cluttering the screen.

AFAIK the outlook Inbox is defaulted and cannot be deleted. When you uncheck, it just do not sync with your PC/notebook, but the folder is still there. Similar with other email accounts.
Thank you, azahidi

I constantly hear the email alert on my phone that I have a new email, but when I go to the mail tab, I did not receive any emails at all. Any ideas what's going on here and how do I fix that?
Thanks.

Not sure if youve already tried but when that happened to me with SMS notifications I:
Turned notification off then on, then soft reset. Turned notifications off then on again, changed tone settings, and it was good to go. Not sure if it will work for email notification though. Worth a shot.
Cheers.
If you're using Exchange, and you have an Outlook open and connected to the same Exchange somewhere, occasionally the Outlook will receive something that Exchange thought was legit, but Outlook thinks is junk (the spam filters are separate), so the e-mail will go to your phone but will instantly get pulled again because Outlook will have moved it from the Inbox to Junk E-Mail.
If you're using POP3 or IMAP4 then I'm of no assistance.
