Cant receive mails

I have setup my Gmail account to download all the mail from the last 7 days but nothing happens. When I change to download every mail it works, but as soon I choose 30 days or 7 days nothing.
I have just installed Duttys latest ROM
Is there anyone who know anything about this problem?

Same problem, also using dutty's latest rom and unable to download mail of the past * days.
Thank you by the way, at least now I can see my mail by downloading everything as opposed to having to navigate to gmail using the browser
Downloading everything takes some time though (985 mails worth of time)

Exact same problem, also doesn't list google folders for some reason. Anyone know why this is? Or recommend a free email app to use, gmail one doesn't load for me?

Pain in the ****
this problem is a pain the bum! i'm using the orignal 1.93 rom that came with the phone, been using it for almost 6 months with gmail problem free, then just out of nowhere, all my messages disapeared from my inbox and wen I send/recieve nothing comes through.....I didnt install any new software, no settings had changed on the phone and I have been using gmail on the phone constantly....so random!! like u guys said, the only way is to download all messages.....please, sum1 must know how to resolve this issue!! i like using gmail, i dont want to change accounts and even if I do, who knows if those accounts will work either!!
any1?

gmail not working

got my HD2 and cannot get gmail/googlemail to work, tried manual and auto. The HD2 keeps saying account user name or password wrong. it isnt. Activesync works, but i prefer gmail via imap.
any help please

I'm sure you have but have you tried your full email address as the username as well as just your name i.e. [email protected] or myname?
Sometimes I find it changes on what is required depending on where you are trying to access it from.

Tried Imap, worked.

i cannot get it to work!

Did you have it working on your previous phone or is this the first time you've used this service? Just checking as you need to activate pop3 or IMAP in Google settings first online.

i hace had it working many times.

Well if you had it working before and checked all the obvious settings, then I'm slightly stuck as Xmoo seems to be fine.
If no one else can help then I suppose it's HTC support that's where you need to try next....
I'll check mine tomorrow when it arrives...

maybe wrong password?

i wish it was that simple. i wonder if its because i came from htc hero?
also, no email accounts i setup synced until i went into the email account options and changed "the internet" to "t-mobile internet". so much for sim auto setup.

Coming from a Hero shouldn't make a difference. The Hero was using gmail push unless you manually configured imap on it.
Might be worth just double checking the ports etc to make sure. Don't get me wrong, I think you've probably got it all right, but best to be sure!
I'll be checking mine when I get it on Friday so if I have the problem, ill let you know, but I'm sure you'll have it sorted before then.
Sim Auto set up is great for novices, but not always what more experienced users want. I had to change my APN settings on hero to get faster / unproxied internet from o2.

Thanks everyone. Got it working.
I went into my gmail via pc and once again went into settings. This time I disabled pop (it was enabled along with imap) and from HD2 homescreen I added a new account. However, I didnt select GMail option, just other but everything just worked. Also, I didnt need to change the settings with the email account setup to "Tmobile Internet" as the "The Internet" setting just worked. Really really odd.
So I dont know if it was cured by turning off the pop setting, or setting gmail up on the HD2 via the other email option, but it works
Thanks for everyone who replied.

I have a similar but differnet issues.
Using Google exchange sync. it pushes contacts and calendar, but wont push ANY mail to my device (it synced the folders tho!) i've checked the dates, and the ranges to download, and it just wont do it at all. tried checking th ebox, unchecking th ebox, rechecking thebox (some people said it was second time lucky for them)
I've set up gmail as IMAP in the interim and that works fine. but im stumped as to why it wont exchange sync with the rest of the stuff!

Ok, i figured out my issue, and im surprise dit isnt documented anywher eon google,i found it on one of their forums and a member there discovered it, not a google Mod.
If you have subfolder under your inbox, it wont work.
i.e. if you have any "/" in your google mail labels (which is how GMAIL sets itself up if you use outlookwith IMAP on it),then it wont sync
i had sub folder sin outlook, so in gmail they becme labels such as:
Inbox/Ebay
Inbox/personal
and the "/" trips up the exchange sync. which seems very strange considering that the phone correctly recognises them as labels.

I had the same issue: my HD2 didn't want to sync with google. So I tried the option of disabling POP. At first it didn't work. But after I changed [email protected] to [email protected] it suddenly worked. I hope this helpes someone.

It worked for me but it doesnt push :S and ive set it to upon arrival of new mail or w.e it says..
It just doesnt push anything

I've got my gmail push working ok but, probs a silly question, how do you change the name of the account as mine is showing as Outlook and I've searched everywhere I know and can't find an option to change it to gmail

I was having the same exact issue and manually disabling POP from the web solved it for me! IMAP now working perfectly.
Balls. Spoke too soon. Still not working for me. Get the same username/pass error as before.
WooHoo!
Using the "Other" email account option seems to have fixed it. There must be something screwy in the IMAP settings that HTC Sense uses by default when you select Google Mail.

Ok,
This is getting weird now. I have two gmail accounts configured using the same method, one works perfectly and consistently, the other sporadically fails to connect/log-on etc...
Does anyone have any idea what the problem might be?
EDIT:
There's no rhyme or reason to this. One account works perfectly everytime, the other account will work sometimes then randomly throw the username/password error.

MyTouch 3G delete emails

My friend has this phone with T-Mobile. The issue that he is seeing is that he can get his emails off the server and send them to the Trash. However, when he tries to delete the messages permanently from trash they disappear from his phone for a short time and then come back. So it would appear that the messages are deleted from his phone but not the server, so when the phone syncs with the server they reappear.
I told him about this site and he has searched for this issue with no luck. I have also searched and have decided to post this for assistance.
Thanks for any help you guys can give us on this.
Edit: I should mention that this is happening with his Comcast email, gmail works fine though.

in the mail setting there is a check box for you asking if you would like to delete then from the server or never delete

He checked this and it does say delete from server when I delete from inbox.
the strange thing is that he switched from this to Never Delete it just went back to his inbox and then he went back in and it was still on "delete from server when I delete from inbox".
He tried again and they still do not delete.
Any other ideas?

email settings
He may need to log in to his email on his computer and see if it has a setting to keep mail on the server after it has been pulled using POP3 or IMAP. I have not used comcast email but that could be an issue.

I was having the same issue on my Nexus One. But to add on to it even when I marked messages as read they kept coming back as unread and was constantly sounding the new email notificatiion. I wiped and set everything up again and continued to have the same problem.
To resolve the issue I just set up to pull from my other yahoo POP accounts in gmail. Now I don't have the read items reaccuring. But I don't have the option now to delete from the yahoo server if I delete in gmail. But I guess I can live with that.
I guess the other email client still needs some fine tunning. But of course gmail works great. Was a little disspointed about this coming from a blackberry but the other pluses really outweighs this little stint.

I sent him your suggestions. He is going to try it soon. I will let you know what happens.
Thanks for all your help.

Comcast hsa an option in their settings to keep mail on server when downloading via POP. have him uncheck that setting in his comcast webmail. This will fix the problem

Strange problem setting up SMTP mail account

Hi guys I have a really strange problem setting up a SMTP mail account on my wifes phone.. It is a bit difficult to explain because I'm dutch and my phone language is dutch too of course..
My wife and I both have a Galaxy s2. I tried to set up our mail account from home (versatel) on our phones. With the Premium account (POP/IMAP) setting both phones worked oke with the mail account. But then when deleting a message form the phone, the message gets deleted from the server too and we dont want that.
So I went to my phone and set up the mail account via manual settings (in stead of premium and just click next). I left the incoming settings alone. (pop.versatel.nl, no verification, port 110) And changed the outgoing setting so the correspondent with the settings on our PC. (smtp.versatel.nl, no verification, port 25)
Now comes the strange thing! This works on my phone. On my wifes phone however it keeps saying our server doesnt support verification. As said I already have this checked of tough.... I already tried deleting the account en resetting. Didnt work. Also tried check verification on and off again. Also didnt work. Any suggestions?

I have the same issue, is there any solution to this?

Follow your email providers instructions IMAP not POP .
Check the ISP ?Network that the mail is sent through they may have port restrictions to prevent spam .

Help. Outgoing Email not working

Hello,
I just discovered that my outgoing mail via the tablet isn't working. I have some VERY important items sitting in the outbox. It turns out that once in "sending" mode in the gmail app that comes with the tablet, you cannot view what you composed although you can see the original, incoming mail. Therefore, I can't copy/paste my e-mail to send another way given the urgency.
If you can help me, I really appreciate it.
JP
These are the steps I've taken and any possible pertinent info:
1) Yes, I have working internet access and restarts don't help
2) There are no Android Menu settings that I can adjust to make this happen that I have found after going through every one.
3) It was working until about 2 weeks ago apparently based on the send dates of what I just found in the outbox.
4) This is affecting BOTH the system mail app and the one for gmail. I just tested it to be sure. Incoming works fine.
5) I have noticed that it has not synced read or deleted e-mail since I got it which is very annoying.
6) I suddenly lost root a month ago (on Taboonay 2.2) thought I didn't do anything to affect it so I don't have any access to "behind the scenes" files to check any adjustments.
7) I try the sync options from the mail as well as account settings but get no change.
8) UPDATE: I took a chance and flashed back to 2.1 of Taboonay. I have root back somehow! However, the outgoing mail still won't work. I need to retrieve 2 important outgoing mails for work. I hope someone can help now that I have root access and have a fix. I thought of reinstalling the system app, but I can't seem to find it in the ROM. I might be wrong on whether this will help, hurt, or lose the outgoing mail.

Have you deleted or froze any system apps?

No.
I just tried a reinstall of this system gmail app but it wouldn't do it.

Well you could download a 3rd party app for a temp fix. But the next thing I would try is clearing the data for the email and gmail app.
