Pocket Outlook opens when message is received - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

This is really annoying. For some reason pocket outlook has started opening itself to the last used folder when for instance I receive an mms. It's always done all that in the background until now. The only change I can recall is that I've installed IM+.
I use phoneAlarm to get notified for all incoming events and I would like to see Pocket Outlook running in the background like it usually does.
Any tips or suggestion to what is causing this?

Just try simply to do soft reset - it helped me recently.

How to remove Activesync and Hotmail from the Inbox ListView

I removed all of this from my registry and no Activesync or Hotmail now listed, this works for me as i dont bother with either of them, I use GPRS to check me mail and never use hotmail, figured it was time for them to go.
Even though they are no longer visible in the Inbox app, they still appear in Pocket Breeze, anyone help out further?
Below is the 3 sets of backups i made during removal
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Inbox\Svc\ActiveSync]
"FriendlyName"="Outlook E-mail"
"UserCannotCreate"=dword:00000001
"DLL"="syncmgr.dll"
"Name"="ActiveSync"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Inbox\Svc\ActiveSync\MsgClasses]
"IPM.Note"=dword:00000001
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Inbox\Svc\Hotmail]
"UserCannotCreate"=dword:00000001
"Port"=dword:00000000
"DefMsgClass"="IPM.Note"
"SupportedMsgClasses"="IPM.Note"
"DLL"="pMSNHotmail.dll"
"Name"="Hotmail"
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Inbox\Pocket MSN]
"Link"="Pocket MSN.lnk"
"Domains"="hotmail.com;passport.com"
My aim is to remove all mail accounts except the 3 i use, ie my POP3, SMS and MMS, which is what I now have in my Inbox, just not everywhere else so far
Good jobs.
Sorry, how did you remove them?
exactly, in the examples that you posted here, there are no changes to the original registry.
no no no, they are the keys i removed totally from the registry, they were cut + pastes from my backup files.
soz for confusion
Amazing! Works great. Thanks a lot
i know this seems a bit trivial but have you tried removing pocket breeze, doing the changes then re-installing ? i think pocket breeze creates all its headers etc when it installs?
its a good theory unfortunatly i wont be able to try it unti tomorrow night, godda do a bit of travelling

I've done this but I no longer get notifications when I receive a text message
Yeah!! I have the same problem!!! What´s wrong?
I simply removed the hotmail registry entry in
HKLM\Software\Mircosoft\Inbox\Svc
I can't see a need to remove the other entries as Active Sync and MSN Messenger are not displayed in my list of inboxes.
However, I do not use Pocket Breeze.
I'm guessing the active sync keys are responsible for your alert notifications?
Just sent a text message to my phone, i'm still receiving the notifications on arrival so i'm pretty sure its the active sync reg keys you've removed.
What?
How would I re-add this?
it works great..
but now I have hotmail1 account!!!!!???
causes Problems with Pocket Outlook
Just for the record:
another nasty little side effect of removing the ActiveSync-Registry items posted above is that Pocket Outlook will crash on load.
If you use alternative means of sending and receiving SMS thats no biggie, but I thought I'd mention it.
(slightly off-topic: )
By the way, has anyone resolved the issue with tmail.exe and 3rd party apps for sending SMS? I can send them through pocket Outlook, but not through any 3rd party apps (Flexmail, Pocket Informant etc...).
This Knowledge Base article suggests it's an OS-Issue, so I thought I'd ask you guys...

Old Email Messages Deleted Automatically

Hi all,
I 've got the Qtek9100, and with both the default rom it shipped with and the custom Tmobile 2.17 ROM I've had this problem. I use Gmail on my phone via pop3, and my problem is that the phone is constantly deleting my old email messages. Its not sending them to the deleted items folder, but removing them from my inbox as though they never existed. Have any of you encountered this problem or know of a way to fix this? Thanks.
I have a Cingular 8125 and I have the same problem. After I close the email its gone!
Same problem here too.
set to get first 999kB of message.. it is the only work around that i found
Loosing Emails.
I had this type of problem with SMS's and emails - basically anything with Pocket Outlook.
The solution was to Close outlook fully (not with the 'x') before soft-resetting the phone. Pocket outlook does not seen to write the new emails to it's database until the app is closed. (i.e running programs - stop program)..
Since I started closing outlook fully before soft-resetting I have not lost 1 message.

Actually, closing outlook fully does not stop email from being deleted. This happens even when I don't soft reset the phone. I'll try getting the first 999kb of a message, though I worry that this could fill my phone quickly if I don't pay attention. Also, I don't have this problem with SMS messages.
I figured it out.
Under Tools -> options in Pocket Outlook is an option to "Display messages from last x days only." I've unchecked that, so here's hoping that takes care of the problem. Hope it helps everyone else who had this problem.

I had this unchecked already, and I still have the same problems.
Any other ideas?
Here si the fix on the HTC and disappearing emails
1 start/message/click email account/menu/tools/options/tap email account/edit account setup/next/next/next/next/next/download message 3 pls days/advance setting/keep them on server/next/ finish
Do this for all accounts
Now go to your computer and outlook tools/email accounts/view or change email account/next/change/ more settings/advanced/leave copy on server/ how many days is up to you
You must do this for all you accounts on that computer. then do the same to all the computer you use to get the same e-mails.

MDA Vario II - no reminders

I use a MDA Vario II (from t-mobile) and, begining with a couple of days before, I get no reminders to appointments anymore. I suspect that it is happening since I have instaled PocketBreeze 5.0.11, but i am not sure that PocketBreeze is the cause.
Does anybody else face the same problem? What can be done, except a hard reset (I am not so thrilled by the ideea to install everything again)?
Have you tried checking your notification queue for duplicates and/or out of date entries.
You can try scarybear checknotifications, memmaid or sk tools for this (prob there are others too)
Try this first, see if there are any duplicates or out of date entries. Delete all these, soft reset and then try again. Don't delete anything if you don't know what it is (unless it comes up under duplicates).
I use a combination of the above tools as I find that they often find dups or out of date entries that the others miss. Try checknotifications first (free), and see if this helps.
Hello marisa,
thank you for the hint, it seems to be working now. To be true, I already bought SKTools yesterday, because I found some other post with a similar problem. But I only ran the "Invalid Registry Entries" and "Invalid Registry Values" utilities, being afraid to delete anything. But after your post I ran the "Notification Queue" utility and checked all entries that refer CALENDAR.EXE And for all birthdays there were duplicates.
How do they got there? I initially synchronized the calendar in my old PalmVx with the Outlook (there I had the birthdays as normal appointments, not in contacts). Than connected my MDA per USB and ActiveSync to my PC. I manually inserted all the birthdays in the Outlook's contacts, causing Outlook to automatically create a duplicate "all day event". Than I deleted the birthday appointments which I get from the old PalmVx. In all of this time my MDA was automatically synchronizing with Outlook, so practically when I deleted the entries, they also were deleted from the MDA's calendar.
Now the question: since Outlook, ActiveSync and Windows Mobile are all Microsoft products, why weren't the duplicates also deleted from the Notification Queue? Why the garbage that needs to be cleaned with 3rd party tools and hours of searching posts on forums? Whatever.
Thank you again anyway!
PS: so PocketBreeze was not the cause.
They don't call it Active Stink for nothing you know!
Regarding Pocket Breeze, Spb Diary, Ilauncher and Pocket Plus, I don't know if these have anything to do with the problem.
I would say they must do, as most of these problems seem to occur when or shortly after people have installed one or any of them (or similar).
However, there are some people who get these problems with just the standard pre-installed software.
I personally think it's the interaction of Activesync, the native operating system and these today plugins which sets up something unexpected.
It could also be that people install both (many versions) of one of these in order to compare them, and decide which to buy, and they interfere with each other.
I have even had both version installed at the same time (but only one activated) for quick comparison. So, it's really hard to apportion blame for this. The other day I actually had to remove 2 identical templates, which had the date 2999! How's that for weird?
Never mind. All's well now, and that's the main thing.
Hmm, i must say that PocketBreeze was installed while I was performing the previously described birthday synchronisations. Whether it had any blame - I don't know. Uninstalling PocketBreeze was the first thing to do by trying to solve the problem, didn't help, the damage was already done. What I know is that I will install it again, because it sure gives me a much nicer overview. And that I will watch the Notification Queue closely from nowone

I don't think Pocket BReeze is related to my problem with appointments and alarms, I've had it installed all along and the problem only started very recently.

I'm using MemMaid but I'm still a bit confused about the entries that appear in the notification queue.
Can I safely delete any entries that relate to calendar entries in the past without this actually deleting it from the calendar itself?
Also, I have a load of entries in the queue that start:
\\.\Notifications\NamedEvents\SCRIPT:0x0
The detail for these shows a date and a (fairly random) time. Most are in the future (and generally in the early hours of the morning.)
Can anyone tell me what these entries are?
thanks
Mark

I'm no expert, but my rule of thumb is:
If I don't know what it is/does then I leave it alone.
there is quite a bit of 'stuff' that has to run at various times to make the system run properly - that's when these phantom notifications are supposed to get cleared up, but don't. So, leave these alone.
Regarding the calendar entries, it's just the notifications which come up under memmaid's notfications check. So, if 3 months ago you had a dentist appointment and set the reminder for this to a day before say, and for some reason that notification didn't get dismissed and now you see it in memmaid, you can delete this. It won't delete the appointment, just the notification which is of no use to you now anyway and is confusing your system.
Bill, I think I know what happened with your duplicate birthday stuff.
Are you using Pocket Informant? or another 3rd party diary application? Maybe even Pocket Breeze itself.
Basically, I think you have 2 applications creating calendar events from contact birthdays. One is Outlook, the other is one of the ones I've mentioned. The solution is to turn it off on one or the other.
I already solved my problem by deleting the double entries in the Notification QUeue.
I was using PocketBreeze. I currently uninstalled it, but I will install it again and test your theory.
What do you mean by turning Outlook off? I use the Outlook on my PC to create appointments and I expect ActiveSync to upload them on the MDA by synchronization, even if the one managing them there is PocketBreeze. And backwards, when I create them with PocketBreeze on the MDA - i expect them to be downloaded on my PC by synchronisation.
Do you mean that there is also the preinstalled so called Outlook Mobile on my MDA which conflicts with PocketBreeze? Shouldn't this be the main concern of the PocketBreeze developers, to ensure that their software is not producing redundant double entries?
Anyway, if you mean turning off the preinstalled Outlook Mobile on the MDA, how exactly should I do it, where do I find this setting?
Sorry Bill, I haven't been very clear.
I think there is a special extra function in Outlook and also at the same time in some of these other pocket pc diary applications which create birthday calendar entries from contacts.
I am fairly certain that Pocket Informant does.
I am not suggesting that you don't sync with Outlook, just that one of the third party applications may be creating a duplicate using this extra function and so is outlook.
In Pocket informant there is an option to turn this extra function off, so then you only get the outlook ones. Hope that explains better.
Added:
In the Pocket Informant manual it explains this quite well when discussing options:
Apply Contact Birthday/Anniversaries
If you save anniversary and birthday information with your contact data, this option can read and enter the events into your calendar for you. However, because Outlook will do the same, it is recommended that you leave the option turned off if you synchronize with Outlook, in order to
avoid duplicates or performance issues.
Nothing to be sorry about
I understand now what you mean, thank you for the explanations. I will search the PocketBreeze's options for a similar setting.
And probably I will take a look at the PocketInformant too.

Hotmail text getting mixed with my SMS messages. (8525, WM5)

Here is my stats:
Cingular 8525
Windows Mobile 5 (out of the box, no upgrades)
I was using Pocket MSN to get my hotmail and use it pretty frequently.
But every so often I would send someone a SMS and they would tell me that it had a bunch of extra text. I ask what text and they would read it and it would be text from hotmail emails!
I would check my "sent" SMS folder and didn't see it.
I looked at the phone of the person who got the message and it had my SMS on top but the continued with text from a hotmail email.
I search the forums and saw where someone else had the problem but no solution was offered.
Please help!
Can anyone corroborate that this is accurate?
All my contacts are in Outlook, I should be safe when I hard reset.
Thanks!
it happened to me on my wizard with wm5. i think it is a corrupted cemail.vol file. i tried every which way to delete it, but it would not go away. even tried loading backups of the whole phone and it seemed to help for a couple of weeks but it would do it again. only thing that finally worked was a hard reset unfortunately.
...and if you look at the sent texts it won't show what hotmail was attached to it but if you use jeyo mobile companion to look at the texts it will show it. go figure

Outlook mobile steals focus

Hi there.
I have a little issue with outlook, when it syncs up my imap account it steals the focus and shows up as the active window. It does it wether there is new mail or not, but not every time. Same thing when the device is sleeping, i wake it back up and it shows my inbox even if outlook was closed before going to sleep.
Has anyone else had this issue (and maybe knows how to fix it) ?
Same thing happens to me also, it's not all the time but sometimes and I can't tell whats going on to make it happen.
I'm using pop.
Annoying it is though.
Regards
I had this on WM6.5 Kaiser ROM but havent had it yet on the Leo
any luck with this issue. just read some essential feeds and the mail application pop up about 10 times
thanks
nev
I haven't had this problem for quite a while now. I haven't changed my email configuration but i did change roms a few times since then (netnrg and energy mostly). So i guess the issue is somehow fixed in recent roms.
Stop Outlook stealing focus
Make sure that Outlook is running
Go into Task Manager
Press and Hold on 'Outlook E-mail'
Select 'Add Exclusive' from the pop-up menu
You can confirm it has been added by going to the 'Exclusive' tab next.
Not sure why this is required, but this means that Outlook will always be running in the background and won't need to pop up on top of other apps (was very frustrating for me when watching movies and this would happen).
