Few questions of a new user

Hi!
I need help in things which I don't seem o find a solutions for.
Ok, so here are the questions:
1. Regarding bloody Hotmail and sending emails - did anybody achieve it?
In my case after sync via Windows Live Panel, or just simply writing and sending email doesn't work. It's just crazy, I see the sent emails in the Sent folder and it's even on the PC version of ive, but mails go NOWHERE! Help!
2. Did anybody of you encountered any sending email problems from other accounts!
I have two accounts, one works good, the other does not send, although settings are correct and checked 100 times.
3. All of my accounts always show loading one message but it's not there - so when I have one new email, it loads two emails but I have only one new. When I have no new mails, it loads new message but it's not there (checked in the Outlook!)
4. One more strange thing - I uninstalled the programm which was set as a shortcut in pop menu on main screen. After uninstall this bloody shortcut cannot be removed, what to do??
Please help, these things drive me crazy.
Hope it's not too much to ask.
I'm new to WM actually, I used UIQ for years..

Rudegar,
Please, help..

hi welcome to xda developers from my-symbian. it seems that its your first experience in wm phones. my best phones were p910i an p1i. earlier I did not not like wm phones but with x1i i am 90% satisfied. most of the problems on wm phones are due to its os which has been only tweaked over the years without any substantial upgrade.
regarding questions 1to 3 since i do not use hotmail or other account for sending mail ,i may not be able to answer them. if u ask in Q&A thread in general section u may get better response as hotmail is common to all platforms.
4. use file explorer and go to windows/startmenu
shortcut must be there delete it.
u may read this it might help-

i just send a test mail from my hotmail account on phone to other account. there was no problem, there was a delay but that may be due to fact that i have setting for checking mails every 5 min interval.

Deep thanks! You see I was UIQ user for years and now WM, I have to learn....
Thanks for the Menu - it was there!
Hotmail does not work although I was sending no problem mails from Hotmail on my PC to test!
Anyway thanks and please let me ask more sometimes!!
Best.

Hah! The thing seems more complicated.
It does NOT send any email to one of my accounts, however sends no problem to other ones. That's weird!!!

Forward email from one account through another account

I was forwarding an email the other day when somehow or other I managed to find an option to choose the account that the email was sent from - basically received on outlook email and the email app asked me if I wanted to forward from outlook, gmail or hotmail.
I'd like this option which I used to have on the iphone and found very useful, but can't seem to find it again.
Can anyone help please?

Really sorry to bump this but I'd appreciate if anyone could offer some ideas?

I came across what I think you mean only yesterday, but couldn't find this thread to tell you! Glad you bumped it.
Basically, you can't forward an email that received with account A by using account B.
What I found though, is that if you click an email address in an email, it asks which account you want to use, treating the link as a regular email link, rather than forcing you to use the account you're reading the email with.
I hope that explains it, but you definitely can't forward using a different account, and personally I think that makes sense.

John,
Thanks very much that was exactly it. The probem is that you can't do that with the senders email address, only links in the email text.
can see your point, but the option came in handy previously on occasions where I received an email at work with contents that you definitely wouldn't want to forward from that account! So I would just hit the dropdown and send from gmail instead.
In terms of enterprise management though I doubt our IT staff realised I could do it.
Thank you for your help, I appreciate it.

No worries mate - glad to help.
Just a suggestion, but could you not just forward the email to the account that you do want to forward from? Then you simply remove the header from the last email so it looks like it was never sent from that account.
I know it's long-winded, but it will achieve the desired effect.

The thought behind it was more that I wasn't forwarding emails from my work account at all, which I'd still have be doing by sending it to myself.
As you can imagine, no matter how funny rude or downright disgusting a received email is, sending it from a work address is a no-no!
Again, cheers for your help. My work round now is saving attachments to storage and then forwarding them from my own address - just as long winded.
And there's always cut and paste.
Dan.

hi,
i have no solution for the build in email. but if you not scared to try an 3rd party program that is not for free, you can give flexmail a try.
i just made a test, i forward a mail that arrived on account 'a'/at provider 'a' to an account 'c'/at provider 'c', using account 'b'/at provider 'b' as sender address. it works perfectly.
there is a trail version of the programm so you can take a look yourself bevore buying.

Email deleting from Googlemail

Hi all,
I have looked through the threads as far as I can, and I can't find the answer.
I have just hard reset the phone a few days ago, and set up my googlemail account and other apps I use.
The problem is that the emails seem to delete themselves after about 3 days,and I can't see why. I've logged onto googlemail from the PC and the emails are all still there, which is strange.
Is there any way that this can be fixed?
Also, a hint on how to change the default signature would be great.
Many thanks in advance,
Chris.

You looked as far as you could on the forum, but not in your phone's menus
Email tab, More, menu->tools->options, select your account, and fiddle in the settings until you get to "download mail from the last X days", change the 3 to what you want. On the place where you select your account there's a "signatures" button too, for the 2nd part of the question.

Ah, I expected it would be something simple.... now I'm slightly embarassed
Many thanks for that, I honestly thought that the settings would be on the initial mail setup lol.
Chris.
PS. Sig changed to "Sent from my HD2, much better than an iPhone" Will annoy the wife very much

LOL what?? did you not read what the OP posted? what does your response have to do with anything??
I wish i had something to add... but unfortunately.. i'm also someone who has interest in this question.... anyone?

Yeah I too am interested in knowing this

I too use gmail
It has a push email server option.
It has the facility to import mail & contacts from numerous other accounts.
If your regular account is a gmail (or gmail 'family', ie Sky) account, you can forward mail from it to your gmail push email account.
This way I have a 'one stop shop' single push email account on my HD2 for my numerous email accounts. Can reply from the received account too.
I have set the option to also leave collected mail on the original server.
Have been using it faultlessly for a year.

Have read your post many times. I thought I had answered it!
Push email is delivered to your device as soon as it arrives in your server's mailbox. AUTOMATICALLY

this thread is quite comical - it seems many of us are interested in this - however people are answering it with either a totally different subject or actually not answering at all.
@RalphS - to be fair, you didn't answer it at all. We all know the email is SUPPOSE to arrive automatically once the Gmail servers or Hotmail servers pick it up, however it is not being pushed to the phone AUTOMATICALLY. You have to set a schedule for it which by default is to check every two hours unless you change it. It is NOT being PUSHED.
This is the point and also the reason "ariel123" posted a very common question most here would like a solution to.
Reading the question would avoid confusion. Clearly you did not understand the question despite "reading it amny times" - bottom line, no, you didn't answer it!

It would be easier to answer the question if the OP asked it in clear English using correct grammar and spelling. It's a bit difficult to answer something that appears to be written by a child who expects help from mind readers.
The first post certainly did seem to be asking about push email which explains why people have offered gmail as a suggestion. However, the OP's subsequent posts seem to be about downloading entire emails rather than just headers. If this is the case (and it's impossible to be certain given the lack of legible detail in the posts) then do the following if you're using Exchange or EAS:
- Click on Start>Tools>Activesync.
- Click on Menu>Options, select your exchange server and click on Settings.
- Click on Next twice, select Email and then click on Settings.
- Select Entire Message from the Download size limit combo and tick the Include file attachments option.
- Click on OK and then click on Finish.

It has been properly answered - seriously.
My incoming mail is PUSHED to my mobile AUTOMATICALLY in REAL TIME WITHOUT A SCHEDULE.
Notification of the previous post arrived, of it's own accord, @ 14:15.
I do not have my own mail server. I rely solely on the Gmail exchange server to SEND to me my incoming mail, in their entirety, PUSHED in real time, collected from my numerous accounts, all for free.
In my 1st post I gave the link on how to set up for push email.

won't recognize <mailto:[email protected]?subject=test

Hi all,
I have a little problem with email links in a email on my HTC HD2. When i click on the link it will open a screen to check the emailadress. And it will put the whole link there and won't recognize the mailto and subject.
What can this be, on my pc the link works correctly and on a iphone or older HTC it works.
thanks for any reply.
eelos.
ps. have tested HTML and plain text, same results

anyone? please help

You're doing the link wrong. Check this page...
http://www.johnmolyneux.co.uk/temp/emailtest.html
Do a "view source" to see the tag.

hi john,
Thank you for your reply. I tried every format, but here is your link.
from the opera browser it works flawless, but when i paste your link in a email i get this
img526.imageshack.us/img526/396/screen001d.png
img268.imageshack.us/img268/6371/screen002wg.png
it asks me to check the emailadres en when i choose the first option to send a email with outlook it paste the whole link there.
maybe you know what's the problem.
eelos.

It's not actually a problem - it's just that it's a clickable link. Copy and paste on a PC would do exactly the same thing.
What are you trying to do exactly?

hi,
No, on the pc it will open up a new email with the adress and subject.
I get work mails on my HTC HD2 with two email links in it, to approv the order or to reject the order.
All my employees get them and it will open a new email with all the parameters and you only have to press send and are sales software (server) gets the message and process its.
It works on the iphone, older HTC models etc.
But the HTC HD2 thinks the whole link is the adress, like in the pictures (sorry no direct links, still a new member.....)
hope you can help.

Okay, so you're saying it works with a mailto: link in web pages, but not ones that are in emails?
If that's the case, then I don't see a way round it. It's just the way pocket outlook behaves.

yes, i think it's the UI (manilla), that opens a screen to check the mailadres before it will go to outlook. If i open it from opera, it will go directly to outlook.
I only think it's strange that i'm the only one stumbling on to this problem.
(google won't give me any other hit)
Will try to contact HTC about this. Thank you John for your time.
greetings,
eelos.
