Sorry to ask this questioin, so far I remember it was already discussed somewhere....
My E-Mail accounts become invisible in Outlook and Flexmail, only Outlook-Email account itself is there (ActiveSync Account),
but others are not visible anymore!
They are still there, I can not remove them, or make accounts with same name, so, what can I do?
Hard reset Again?
- Have this issue on WM6 only (CE OS 5.2.19701)

I made the terrible mistake of pressing the mail icon on the MSN menu of my new JAMin- it has now created a new account under messaging called Hotmail. I dont have and never will have a hotmail account, but I cant for the life of me find how to delete the account permanently. Also I dont sync my Outlook e-mail account since I use Thunderbird on the PC. Does anyone know how to delete the Outlook e-mail account in WM 5?
go to programs and select msn,
then under options select new user. this will log you out and should remove the hotmail folder.
hope it works for you
thanks!
that worked! still got outlook e-mail mithering me but ne'er mind
i am pretty sure the outlook one cannot be erased. glad it worked for you. i did the same thing last sunday and thought i was going to have to hard reset the phone to get rid of the hotmail folder!
Mr Gates is a tenacious f****er! Thanks for your help.
does anyone know how to do this? i want to reset this to something else and i can't seem to figure out how to do this and it's really annoying me. i can delete my gmail inbox perfectly fine (hold down stylus and select delete) but for some reason it won't let me do that to my outlook or my hotmail.
>.> don't tell me i have to do a hard reset just to erase those...
To delete your hotmail inbox, you have to remove your Windows Live ID from messenger. (I think it's called switch Live ID)
You can't delete the default outlook inbox, it for when you synch with outlook (even if you don't have it)
Outlook mailbox is deleted (changed) through activesync I believe.
I would like to delete this also, I use SPB Mobile Shell and when I hit the e-mail icson it sends me to the outlook tab which I never use.
where exactly in activesync it that option to remove outlook? i cant find it

I would like to know that as well! The outlook e-mail part always annoys me.
There is a way to remove the unused "outlook" account from the messages menu, but that can introduce some bugs (notifications gone etc), but I think it worked with some people. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=368812
The Hotmail account can be deleted as described above. Delete your windows live account and set it up again without syncing your emails.
Hi all,
I've setup the Outlook Email to sync with my exchange server at work... however, it has syned my calendar and not emails (i only wanted it to do emails). For some reason, it's saying the details are not correct (yet it's capable of syncing calendar). Anyway, I've told it not to sync anything (so I won't receive them anymore) but how do I remove the account from my phone?
Thanks,
Amnesia
ActivSync
Strangely it's done from within ActiveSync and not the messaging app.
I found out after trying to setup direct push yesterday.
If you click the bottom right softkey in active sync and choose options or somthing(i forget exact item) you can change/remove accounts from there, and even change what items it syncs (calendar/contact/mail/etc) by just ticking and unticking them.
cheers mate! I'll give that a try.
I have set ActiveSync (Exchange) to sync with my GMail account, and I'm positive I've ticked only the mail checkbox. Today, all out of sudden, it synced contacts too, so now I have a bunch of unwanted contacts, both on my GMail account, and on my phone, not to mention that contact pictures are messed too.
On Manila ActiveSync settings page, contacts checkbox is off but disabled (greyed out). On WM ActiveSync settings, contacts under Exchange are turned on.
This is not the first time it has happened to me. First time I thought it was my fault, but now I'm sure it's not. Has anyone had a similar problem, and knows the solution? The bug is really annoying.
Well, I didn' have the exact situtaion but something similar.... I use MS Myphone and ActiveSync to synch my Google contacts. Somehow, i ended up with duplicate contacts and some cases 3-4 copies. Here's what I did to resolve it:
*On the HD2, Delete the Activesync(exchange) account.
*On the HD2, Delete Myphone acct
*On the HD2, Delete the pim.vol file (located in root of the device). You can back this file up just incase.
*On my desktop, Go to my Google contacts online and hit the 'Find duplicate' button, deleted the duplicates
*On my desktop, sign into Myphone online account. Under contacts, hit 'Find Duplicates'. delete the duplicates thereafter.
*On HD2, create and configure Myphone and let it sync the contacts
*On HD2, create and configure ActiveSync exchange server to syn the contacts.
Hope this helps somehow...Good luck!
Thanks for your reply, but it doesn't quite solve the bug, just cleans the mess up. I want to avoid it happening in the first place.
Noone with similar problems?
Just a word of warning - don't sync your calendar with GMail if you've already got a bunch of accepted appointments in your phone.
GMail will send a brand new meeting request to everyone on the original recipients list, even for old appointments!
Happened to me when I backed up my phone, flashed new ROM, restored contacts, appointments, etc and then synced to GMail.
My entire office got spammed with meeting requests for old things like the 2009 company Christmas party!
Oh, and I also had the issue where all my contact pictures were very low quality.
See my post here:

I'm not sure if your problem is same as mine. Did you personally checked to sync calendar items and contacts? I select mail only, but calendar and contacts get auto-check without my permission...
Title pretty much explains!
With facebook and secondary email accounts, under settings you can disable them from importing contacts into WP7's contact area... but with the main Windows Live ID you use to activate the phone, there's no tick box to disable the importing of messenger contacts.
Now my phonebook has like 300 entries of people who don't even have phone numbers... help?! Please!
Yeah! I've got the solution for you, i run into this problem as soon as i got my activation code and got my hotmail account up and running, all you got to do is go to your mail account and delete all the contacts in the contacts page then re-sync your live account from your phone and *bam* unwanted contacts are gone!

Then all your contacts store in Hotmail are gone?
I have just posted this against another similar post, would it work?
I posted this elsewhere and didnt get any real work arounds.....
(I returned my OE WP7 and returned to HD2 on WM6.5).
However, just a thought.....
MyPhone is only for WM6.5 but using ActiveSync you can sync mail, contacts, calendar & tasks with Outlook. I read on the Microsoft forum that you can download Hotmail Contacts to Outlook, and export from Outlook to Hotmail.
If I were to return to WP7, which no doubt I will do:
Contacts:
I would Sync WM6.5 with Outlook, then upload them to the Hotmail account I would be using on WP7. I remember (and may stand corrected) that when you register the Hotmail account on the device, the Contacts are automatically downloaded.
WM6.5 using Windows Live allows you to download Hotmail contacts to my phone, so I guess they would also sync.
Doesnt cure my original issue that I wanted my Phone and Hotmail contacts seperate. I may have to create an additional Hotmail account for that?
Calendar:
On my version of Outlook, I can have two calendars showing - one for the PC which is synced to my phone and one which is my Hotmail. I havent found a way to automatically sync them, but its easy tp drag an appointment from say my PC calendar to Hotmail and therefor on to WP7.
Regarding texts, theres no way like MyPhopne, just copy what you can to your sim card I am afraid.
Does that sound like it might work?
