Hi all,
I just received my HTC Universal (MDA Pro), but I am facing difficulties in using the Mailclient for my IMAP server.
I set the account to receive only the messages of the past 5 days, however, it received messages from the past half year (about 600), and does not erase the old ones.
Furthermore, once doing a Send/Receive, it will relatively quickly receive the latest message headers, however afterwards, it stays for several minutes in the "receiving" mode. The app seems to hang at this time, and it takes about 5 minutes before I can do anything on the device again.
Q: How can I set mail to only display 5 days of messages? All of this worked perfectly with the same settings (as far as I can tell) on my XDA1 with MW2003.
Thanks.
Strange...
I have no problem in receiving just the last 5 days with imap profiles on my JasJar and Exchange 2003 sp2 server.
The only problem is that I can't receive the Sent Items headers... But I don't know if it's a JasJar limitation or I have to enable some hidden feature in Exchange...
Anyone may help me?
Thank you,
Roberto
Hi,
I was wondering if it's possible to receive emails when the phone is in standby mode. This is something that would really improve the usability of the phone. Right now, I have to keep it out of standby in oder to receive my emails every 10 minutes. Doing this really reduces the 'standby time' of the phone, but the other alternative is only receiving the mail when you get the phone out of standby, which isn't really the best solution...
Is T-Mobile's my.email not available in the Netherlands? I setup email accounts on their website; they check the accounts every 15 minutes. If there's no mail, my phone stays in standby. If there's mail, TMO sends an SMS to wake up my phone to download the mail.
Another option is emoze.com. Looks like you'd have to leave Outlook running at home, but it might be a better solution, anyway.
never used this 'my email' from T-Mobile. I just set-up my PPC outlook to check for mails every 10 minutes. Receiving an sms every 15 minutes isn't really a solution I think. I'll check out your other solution.
Edit: Reading as that site is a push-mail service I understand that the new ROMS have a push mail option build in? I don't know anything about this 'push mail' technology, but if I would update my T-Mobile rom (to a qtek rom f.e) would this solve my problem as well>?
I recently dropped by phone in a puddle (e have all done it!) and T-mobile very nicely sent me a replacement phone.
Before the incident my pushmail was working perfectly.
I set up my new phone in exactly the same way and now i have big problems with the push mail.
IT will always sync via USB, however via GPRS it is very tempremental and sometimes works, sometimes doesnt. The down time can last days, . I end up getting an error message "the server could not be reached. This can be caused by temp network conditions, support code: 0x80072EE4".
No one else in office has this problem. Has anyone else had a similar problem - i was wondering if i have been sent a duff replacement and should ask T-mobile for another one.
Any help would be appreciated
still have this problem - can anyone help?
reboot?
I have similar problems though not necessarily the same: if I've synced using USB the sync via GPRS/3G never works unless I reboot the phone (hold the power button and let the phone power down, then restart). Maybe going to flight mode and back also works - not sure.
think my problem is to do with my server.
i got in contact with tmobile specialist team and tested my phone on there server and it worked fine
my it guy is working on it - will let you know if easy fix
I have this problem with the exchange server mobile.exchange.mail2web.com
I think it's a fault with an option in my phone. Anyone of you figured it out?
Other phones works fine with mail2web.com
Thanks
According to the a quick google search, that error message relates to automatic updates...Either way, with Exchange it's always a good idea when having problems to completely remove the server source, reset your phone and then re-enter the information and let it completely re-sync again...
Hi all,
I have searched and searched for this around many forums including this one and found nothing to help me, so finally logged a call with Orange Premier, who after about 3 weeks of calls back and forth finally told me that after speaking with tech support that they are aware of an issue affecting the HTC Touch HD and some of their Balckberry's which is that the devices do not download MMS messages!
So if you have this problem, I suggest pestering Orange until they release a fix of some sort, at the moment they have no fix but are apparently working on it!
Update:
Orange finally suggested registering the SIM card which came with the new Touch HD as I should have registered it anyway so they know what phone I have and this seems to have fixed it - let me know if this works for you!
Update
D'oh - Spoke too soon!
Seemed to work for while but now no longer works without disconnecting the Orange Internet GPRS connection first, and even then it is hit and miss!
This is really annoying and Orange's stand is basically there is nothing we can do. No way I will be staying with orange when my contract is up, after 14 years of being an Orange customer
Wow - I thought it was just me! Thanks, and please keep us updated.
I have downloaded MMS on Orange UK, but I had to go to the Orange site and find the MMS settings. Once they were done I receved MMS and then noticed I had no internet connection (over gsm). So I went to the Orange site and entered the settings for OrangeInternet - the mobile internet worked again, but now I can't download MMS.
It's the lesser of two evils for me not to have MMS. But would like it back

Can't say I've experienced this problem.
I generally upgrade to a new ROM every week and when phone first starts, connection settings are automatically setup for you.
If you don't want to wait for Orange to release a fix, try using a different ROM and see if this works for you
I have this problem also.
I called up orange and they basically told me that the MMS i was receiving was too big.
The limit apparently is 300k. I tested this by sending from a blackberry and the MMS > 300k didn't download, but the MMS < 300k did download.
Pretty poor that there's a limit on it as some phones don't reaize the content before sending.
I'm missing out on a good few messages because of this
That's interesting Scotia, but the mms's I am recieving are from people with rubbish camera pics so I'm not entirely sure that's the reason - but I will test.
Hey Guys,
Rang Orange again today as I am getting really annyoed with this, I am planning a wedding atm and the missus is constantly sending me MMS of photos she has taken for colours of bridesmaids dresses and flowers etc.....not that I am really interested but I pretend I am!!!
Anyway, the outcome of this latest call was that I was told to ring HTC direct and they sent me HTC's phone number.....I rang HTC, they told me that they could come and collect my phone run diagnistics on it and let me know if it was an issue, however they would not provide a replacement and the whole process would take a couple of weeks!
I said this was not acceptable and was there not a fix for it, were they even awar of it? The answer was that it was an orange branded phone and they don't issue ROM updates that orange do and to call them!
I called orange back told them the good news, that it was infact their problem to deal with....with which they said they will go back to technical support!
In the mean time I have done anther hard reset and it seems to have downloaded a message, but then once my poush email etc is setup again it stops downloading MMS again. So I think it is to do with having two connections running at the same time Surely this is not acceptable!
I also asked orange for another phone until they got a fix, told them I wanted either a different brand phone or another HTC model until they had a fix. Apparently the system will not allow this!!!
I know I could flash another ROM, and I would class myself as pretty technical - but I don't see why I should have to do this and also I will then get no support from Orange if I am on a non-standard ROM? Also where to start, there are so many ROMS floating about, which one to choose?!
Anyways, thought I would keep you all posted.
Cheers,
James
james, i have also noticed this and am wioth orange.
It was working fine, then stopped receiving mms, but email worked ok, so i checked online and went through the mms settings, this fixed problem, and was again able to receive mms, but email didnt work - it is a problem with the mms settings and internet settings running at same time.
when you check the connections folder, and manage existing connections - only orange internet is present. if you try to add the mss settigns it says they already exist, and wont let you add them, i think maybe if we try that, but call them a diff name maybe it`ll work, i will give it a go and report back.
t3rm3y - I wonder if you may be onto something there! I don't have time to test atm but let me know what you find out and then I will try it this afternoon
My brother who is on the Three network sends MMS to his girlfriend and she gets it instantly but whenever he sends it to me, i never get it.
Must be a vodafone thing, maybe a HD thing, who knows.

According to Orange that is a Vodafone issue, as they started telling me that they knew of a problem sending messages to vodafone, that sometimes a message doesn't get through and other times it is received more than once, but it was a problem with Voda not Orange. That didn't help me as I am trying to send and receive between two Orange handsets which doesn't work!
I also have problem with MMS not downloading
to get them downlonaded I close active sync then disconnect all data connections , then moments later the MMS connection is remade and MMS downloads OK

thats exactly what i have had to do .
close all data sessions , then it receives the mms .
Sorry for the bump but im so glad i found this thread ! Thought it was just me. I've been on the phone to orange about 6 times to sort this out and it still doesn't always work. Any signs of progress from orange ?
Just want to bump this thread again as I'm having the same trouble with Orange, I can only send mms's if I disconnect all currant data connections

You need to create an Orange MMS profile under connections. I leave mine on "orange internet" but if I receive an MMS change it to "orange MMS" just to download the message, then change it back. Works Ok. The MMS technical helpdesk gave me a walkthrough to set up the MMS settings.

Thats more of a work around, similar to closing all data connections mentioned above.
Thing is, the MMS should download without any intervention. So there is a problem that needs fixed.
Orange hit me off with this rubbish when i called them also, only for me to tell them that i already have the Orange MMS profile setup correctly in my phone.
Then they told me that it's bacause the MMS is too big.
But now i have tested large pic sizes by disconnecting all data connections and i can receive the MMS no problem.
Think i'll give them a call tomorrow again and see if there's any chance they can get this sorted.
Just off the phone to Orange.
The guy i spoke to said he had the Touch HD handset and had the same problems.
Told me to do the following :
Start > Programs > Quick GPS > Menu > Options : Untick 'Auto download when data expires'
Start > Programs > RSS Hub > Menu > Options : Auto Update Mode should be set to 'No Auto Update'
Start > Settings > System Tab > Windows Update > Menu > Connections : Untick 'Use my data plan to check for and download updates'
Manila Weather Tab > Menu > Settings : Untick 'Download weather automatically'
Now i know this seems again more of a workaround than an actual fix, but to be honest, i don't think Orange are going to provide a permanant fix for this.
I have tried 3 MMS messages so far and they all have worked with no problems.
I'll keep monitoring it and update if i have anymore issues.
i can download mms and go on internet, but cant send stupid things. tried the mms account on the manage settings tab, but dont help, tried the turning off auto update idea, still no help, its well annoying.!!!
I got my HTC Touch HD on monday and all has been fine and have been getting mms with no problems, out of interest I followed scotia_rfc's work around and discovered that my phone was default set up as he had listed, I didn't have to make any changes etc. Perhaps Orange have twigged to this and are now sending out all new Touch HD's configured this way?
I'm expecting my HD tomorrow, will let you know how mine is set up

Hello everyone,
Not sure if this is the right place to ask this but I'm having problems with my AOL IMAP email on the HTC. It normally works ok so I know the automatic settings are fine.
Today I've been getting this weird notification that says "check your settings and try again AND connection failed" although I definitely have good signal and I am receiving incoming mail.
This has been happening every now and then but it sorts itself out after an hour or so and several rebooting attempts, turning the connection on & off etc.
But today it persists... I would happily use AOL's mobile site through the browser but their main one only works in the US it seems so I'm stuck.
I would ask AOL but they don't seem to have support for their email.
(I'm sure HTC will just blame AOL or ask me to do a hard reset).
(I'm on the standard ROM by the way)
Any help would be appreciated, thank you
the actual error message is:
The message could not be sent.
Check that you have network coverage [which I do!] and that your account information is correct [it definitely is as I was sending emails up to a few hours ago and didn't make any changes].
