I use Google Mail for Domains (basically, email hosting for your own domain name). The URL is mail.google.com/a/domain.com
I, of course, use the web browse on the G1 to access it. When I hit "reply" to reply to an email, 3 out of 4 times the reply will actually pull up ANOTHER email, usually to a different person. I've now replied to the wrong person THREE TIMES in the past 2 days.
Anyone else see this problem? It's driving me crazy.
Just bumping this because it is a serious issue, and I'd love for someone to confirm.
I tried it with gmail.com (from the web browser) and I am experiencing the SAME problem. Can someone here log into their google mail for domain names account or their gmail account from their web browser, open any email, and hit reply and see if it goes to the proper person?
The bug also occurs sometimes when I hit "Compose." Instead of giving me a blank email, it gives me a reply to some random recent person who wrote to me.
Very, very frustrating.
You can try adding the account to your phone via the email client....you may lose some functionality, but it should pretty much solve the problems...
(see https://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=114408 )
If you need to carry contacts over, just export from one google account and import into the gmail one.
I have to use [email protected], this is the best method that I've figured out...Maybe you could try adding the Gmail account at initial config...? Didnt try that...
I've used the email app via IMAP for 3 accounts at [email protected], but I've had a few problems this weekend where all my email accounts disappear. Annoying.
The big problem is that I access about 15 different email accounts hosted through [email protected], so it's easier to just bang into them through the web interface.
But thanks for the idea
I use the Gmail for domains and have that account syncing directly to my G1, but I've never had a problem with it replying to the wrong person. Mine works just as well as using the Gmail client through a browser.
I tested it on 6 different G1's (all RC30, unfortunately), and they all had the same bug. I figured out why my IMAP email accounts got wiped: low disk space for some reason. Freed up some space, and they work fine now.

Hey all,
I've been having some problems with POP3 and gmail on my TyTN/8525. That problem being: it doesn't work anymore. It worked great for about a week, then just stopped working for no apparent reason. I didn't change any of my gmail settings during this time.
After it stopped working, I randomly got 5 of the 100+ e-mails that I was suppsoed to get. Gmail is receiving them fine and I can see them when I login to gmail, they just don't get downloaded when my phone pops it. I can send e-mail through gmail's pop fine.
Anyone have a clue what my problem might be?
Thanks,
Todd

Which wireless provider?
Have you tried deleting the Gmail account on the TyTn and then re-adding it?
Can you POP3 access it from you'r home computer etc (to make sure it is not a Gmail issue)?
If these do not help post you're setup so we can take a look
I think the problem seems to stem from the fact that Gmail breaks down your messages in groups, like around 300 or so messages at a time. On top of that, Pocket IE doesn't download the full messages by default and, as such, leaves a copy of the messages on the server. I think when this happens, Gmail doesn't prepare the next "group" of messages to send to you. Also, Pocket IE, by default, is set to show only messages from the last 3 days, so even though it may have downloaded a bunch of messages, you'll only see the ones that are 3 days old or less. You'll want to uncheck that option.
Try setting up your account as you normally would in the desktop mail app of your choice, Outlook Express for example. Make sure it isn't set to leave a copy of the messages on the server. If Outlook Express didn't download the first group of messages, make sure to do a manual send and receive. That will hopefully tell Gmail to prepare your next group of messages. Alternate Send/Receives with your phone and Gmail until you get to your most recent messages. Also, try putting recent in front of your user name, IE, "recent:[email protected]" instead of just your user name/e-mail address.
i find with gmail that it stops working every few weeks and i have to go into gmail on my pc and re-check the Get all pop email from now, ( it seems there are too many emails to be sent down )
using the "recent:" prefix before your login in your outlook username should fix this.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get this fricken phone to play nice with other email accounts than gmail???!!
I mainly use my yahoo account and it sometimes like to sync, sometimes like to notify the same email over and over again as new, sometimes like to undelete emails again...
Is it just trying to make me use gmail...*ugh*...
It's a problem. I just forward all my other e-mails to my gmail account and have a filter that every e-mail coming from my other account is denoted by a different folder. I've also set up Gmail to let me send e-mails out via my other accounts. All e-mails still get pushed really fast. It works really nicely and all my e-mail is in one place and with folders they can be in separate places if I need it to be. And nothing beats Gmail's search function so that's a bonus.
Thanks!
I'll give it a try. So I'm using gmail afterall. LOL
Anything is better than what it is. Its driving me nuts!
I am wondering if anyone else is experiencing the issues I am and if they were able to correct it.
I have two gmail addresses, One personal and one for business.
I have Thunderbird 3.0.4 setup on my laptop using gmail's IMAP
gmail online and Thunderbird on my laptop work good together and they both match (Messages/folders) as they sync constantly under IMAP.
I get my HD2 on the 24th of March. I set up both my personal and business email addresses on my phone (Using IMAP) with settings to download all messages... I click send/receive and nothing downloads to my phone...
None of my sent or to do messages sync with gmail and show up in my folders on my phone....
When new mail comes in sometimes I get it, sometimes I don't.... When I get home and check my Laptop I find all kinds of emails that my phone never got.
If I send an email from my phone, it sends fine, receiver gets the email ok but again, there is nothing in my sent folder (even with the "save sent mail in sent folder checked in settings)
I understand the purpose of IMAP is so all email clients sync and share the same information. This isn't the case with my phone.... I've deleted my email accounts and reinstalled them paying particular attention to the settings and each time I have the same end results....
Is anyone aware of a problem with this email client on the HD2.....or could it be gmail? I dunno, I can say I've never had any problems from gmail or Thunderbird before so it's very annoying not getting my email, especially my business emails
I even emailed gmail tech support and they said its my phone.... I guess I should of expected that response.
Anyone got any suggestions???
Thanks
Nobody????
Nobody at all???
I have been using the new HTC Email app for my work e-mail and I am noticing that when I mark an email as Read on the server or in my desktop email client it doesn't mark as read on my phone.
When I read an email on my phone it does not mark the email as read on the server.
Anyone else experiencing this issue? Anyone have any ideas on a solution.
Thanks

mark as read
I had the same problem with 1 particular email. I signed into my gmail account outside of the app and found the email in question to mark as read. That was a one time thing for me and I haven't had it happen. Is this a re-occurring issue with yours?
I have that problem also and it also does not show all messages in my inbox only the most recent.
Anyone know how to fix this problem?
Have exactly the same problem with my school imap server. It worked for a while, but since (I do not know what caused it) the first time it didn't "remember" read, it goes the same for any mail that comes. So if I don't go to the mail server on computer marking all as read there, they will always refresh on the device as unread. Even if I delete them on device, they will come as new messages on the device again. HTC HD2 mail server: is.muni.cz
Any help?
I can't say I have issues with my mail client when first viewing on my phone. That sounds more like POP not IMAP but I digress.
Have you tried deleting and re-adding the account?

Yes, I tried it multiple times, double checking if the settings for IMAP in my school server haven't changed. They did not. And yes, it sure is IMAP, cause I didn't want to use POP for several reasons. I have also a Gmail account (with using IMAP), but this one does not make these problems. However I don't think the problem is on their side... I think they should have IMAP covered. But noone knows. I've already contacted their administrator, waiting for response.
It very well could be an issue with your school's settings. Check with your friends to see if they notice any of those issues.
turn off 'keep on server'
I hadn’t seen this in any of the reviews and I don’t use gmail (assuming that there are at least a few out there in the same boat), so I figured that it would be worth mentioning.
While I was excited to see the slick mail interface of gmail, I was concerned that (as part of some “Thou Shalt Use Gmail” initiative) the regular mail client would suck, but that’s not the case at all.
So far, it seems to work exactly like the gmail app (seen in videos/reviews).
I have 2 IMAP accounts plugged into it and it works like a champ.
There is a widget that you can add and point it to any specific account or a consolidated inbox. Right now, I have 2 widgets on my main home screen (one for each of my primary accounts).
Once inside the mail app, you can very quickly cycle between accounts or the consolidated inbox by clicking on the account name in the upper left corner.
Also, all of the server-side folders show up on the left. However, as worth a few mail apps in the past, it doesn’t show sub-folders under the 1st teir.
Very usable. Very happy.
Have you seen a way to reply to an email for one account, using the email address of your second account?
I have a POP3 account mixed with an Exchange account. I reply to a lot of emails on my Exchange account using the POP3 account on other devices (laptop/phone) but it won't allow me to choose which account to send email from on the fly.
I have Exchange and Gmail synced, and so far all I can see is that you can set the default mailbox to send from. Haven't seen the ability to switch on the fly yet.
So far, Exchange sync has worked flawlessly.
