Check hotmail online - Touch HD General

I've got a question regarding checking hotmail online.
When I goto www.hotmail.com I can login, it takes a while before I get to my default home screen of Hotmail, but when I click on "Inbox" it doesn't respond and I have to open the link in a new tab; still not the way, but okay. When I'm in my "Inbox" tab and want to click on a message, still nothing happens. I see it selects the message (as it does at the main screen of hotmail when selecting my "Inbox" as well) but it doesn't go further after that. Okay, then the way to open in a new tab then; it just opens a new tab, but with javascipt().... in the address bar....
I know you can check your mail by setting up (or automatically let HD set it up for you) in the device itself, but I don't want to use that feature.
Does anyone else have this problem too, or know what can be done to let this work? Do I have to install a different java application for it, or someting else?
Thanks in advance.

I'm having same problem

Tried Hotmail Mobile?
mobile.live.com/hm/folder.aspx
Also, try editing your "Reading pane settings" in the Options, see if any of those other settings help you.

The mobile version works just fine, but email display is not html but text only

Yes, I've tried Hotmail Mobile as well, and that works. The normal html version still not.

I also performed a hard reset yesterday, and it's a little diffent now: I can get into the main screen, can even select my inbox, it redirects correctly, but if I want to select a message now, it doesn't do anything... strange... Before the reset, I was able te open it in a new tab by holding the link, but not anymore....
I've also seen it at another site(s), but don't which one that were. But it would be nice that it will work fine as well. So it has nothing to do with Java or something like that?

Sent emails not showing in 'Sent' box?

Hi guys,
I've had my HD2 for almost 2 weeks now and am loving it! It's my first Windows Mobile device and I'm learning new things every day.
Everything is set up and working well *touch wood* but I have 1 slight problem. I've been sending/receiving emails via my btinternet account on the handset without a problem so far, but once I've sent out an email, there's no record of it on the handset. It doesn't show up in the sent box and, having had a look through the settings, I can't seem to find anything related to rectifying this type of problem. Am I doing something wrong and/or can anyone help?
Thanks in advance
Yup i have the same issue, another bug, sure it will be fixed soon though.
Also you notice how it does not sync any of the other folder either, atl east on hotmail it does not.

Yep I'm having the same problem with my Gmail. The inbox syncs but no other folders sync even though I have selected them in 'Manage Folders'.
Yeah, I've noticed that. It's the same with Yahoo. I don't really mind that so much though to be honest. I just want the confirmation that my emails have been sent, it's very strange?!.
how have you managed to get your hotmail accounts setup on the HD2. i cant seem to connect to the server to sync my email? ive disabled the 'proxy' in the connections settings but still cannot set it up?
Could you pls give a step-by-step setup procedure?
its really appreciated, thanks

I'm also having problems getting my emails to come through. My btinternet email ones seem sporadic and I have to click on send/receive to get them to come through. My hotmail worked a couple of days ago but now nothing....and I know I've new emails. I keep getting the page appearing asking for my password and username poping up. Can't get it to sync at all. Whats the proxy setting you mention? Wheres that?
from inbox; menu/tools/manage folders, then tick the boxes to any of the fiolders you want synched and finaly refresh your mailbox.
By default, only the inbox is always synched.

The easiest way to synch your hotmail account is by using the windows live software on your Leo. Just enter your username and password and it will do the rest.

hi , thanks.
i honestly 'prefer not to' install all the live stuff... as i believe ppl here have been able to sync without installing this? would you know if this is possible (it would be better)?
thanks

You don't have to install anything, it's already there on your start menu. It simply automates your mailbox syncing.

Having the same problem, there's no tick box!
It is strange if you cant see the boxes at least for some folders. I have to choice for Inbox, Sent Items and Junk mail.
Anyway you can try to keep the finger on the folder to get context menu where are other Folder options. And there is something I would like to ask some advanced user - why I can switch there from "Download email headers" to "Download complete message" but nothing happens and from Hotmail account the phone keeps downloading just email headers. Btw. when using POP3 for my other email account I am able to set this option to Download complete message and YES, there it is running like a charm. But with Hotmail I am not able to succeed.
Anyone knows the clue?

got it working
ok maybe its a little late but i figured it out... ---> click on email--> click on menu--> new acc--> pick hotmail/live--> put login info--> if it goes to opera like it did to me or does appear below gmail or so forth on the email tab don't worry im gonna tell you what to do next--> find the windows live icon click it.. once ur logged in you will see Windows live Home follows by Messenger followed by sync--> click on sync--> a new option appears and it should be hotmail option to view your emails..--> now get out and go to your email tab..--> at this point your hotmail is sync to ur device and should be good to go..

thanks so much clown shoes this is so simple but so easy to overlook i spent hours before i found this now have my saved mails
thanks!
I second the above poster! The fix for this was so easy, but so incredibly counterintuitive that I don't think that I'd have ever gotten this on my own.
I am trying to get the incoming mail server settings for the mobile.msn.com so i can add a second account. Does anybody know these settings?

Setting Up POP Mail

I finally got my HD2 today. I'm trying to set up a POP3 account. Two issues seem to exist:
1. There is no longer a setting that prevents mail from being removed from the server once it's downloaded. Is that now automatic, or is the setting somewhere else?
2. I'm setting up the outgoing mail server using a different account and password. (It's a long story, but necessary). While the settings dialog allows this, when I go back in and look at the settings, the setting is now checked to use the same account and password as in incoming server. Is it no longer possible to do this?
Thanks in advance.

Never mind. Figured both items out by using the standard Windows setup. HTC Sense seems to be missing some settings.
I was wondering the same
I was actually asking the same...
How do you get to the "standard Windows setup"?
In an other thread I read that there should be an "INBOX->Menu->Options" menu entry but this is missing on my HD2 or at least I can't find it... (German ROM but no Carrier Branding).
Any thoughts?
Cheers,
Thinman
you should use the Windows Application and not the HTC Sense Application. Click the windows hardware button and look for E-Mail among all the applictaion listed, you will have access to a lot more settings.
From the HTC sense mail screen, click
Inbox (left soft key) then menu - tools(scroll down to find) - options
to call up the windows options screens rather than the HTC ones. The differences are slight, but important.
Thanks a lot!
scroll down to find

That was the keyword... I must admit I haven't thought of that. I assumed that the menu is just that long. From now on I always try to scroll first!

HTML Email on HD2

Hi All,
Is there any way of getting full html support for email on HD2?
Cheers
Uhm... could you detailt up a little bit?
there is 100% full support of html e-mails on HD2...
I think he means, that embedded pictures are not shown instantly. Thats not a lack or bug its just for your safety because some kind of malware is using this way to srew you up
Therefore you always have to click on "show blocked images" or whatever it says....
Well actually, I really like that feature since I would find it rather bad if my phone would start downloading lots and lots of kbytes with information on bulky newsletters...
I never tried this, but it could help: try setting up a larger value for the maximum download limit: thus you can allow larger e-mail to be completely downloaded automatically.
I admit I've never tried this, since I am actually fond of the default 2KB maximum limit!
Good luck!

That doesn't change the default action of not downloading images. You still need to click the link to do that.

You're wrong.
In the Message download limit combo box (drop down list), there are the following options:
- 2KB
- 5KB
- 20KKB
- 50KB
- All text, no pictures
- Headers only
- Entire message
Guess what happens when you select 'Entire message'...
If you use an Exchange accout, you'll have less options available. However, the 'Entire message' option is available, so no need to worry.
But if we got here, please keep in mind that Exchange 2003 doesn't offer HTML support across ActiveSync, with Windows Mobile (stupidity, I call it, for it works perfectly with iPhones!).
If you want HTML over ActiveSync, you should contact your server admin. and suggest him upgrading to Exchange 2007 (or even 2010 ).

You're so sarcastic that it is annoying. Every time I've come across you on these forums you have to attack in a VERY sarcastic way. STOP doing this.
You said, "I never tried this, but it could help: try setting up a larger value for the maximum download limit" Have you now tried "setting up a larger value for the maximum download limit" in order to try and help the OP, or did you decided that you'd rather just try bashing me.
"setting up a larger value for the maximum download limit" DOES NOT DOWNLOAD THE IMAGES.
Stop being so rude - these forums have a lot of long-standing and very friendly users. The best way to get on in here is to try and be the same.

I can't find those options anywhere. Where are you getting that list?

Go to the Inbox of any accout -> click on the menu key (right soft) -> on the pop-up menu, select Tools>Options... -> choose an account to edit
Now, if you try to edit a GMail or Yahoo account (or probably any other account, except for the Exchange one), you can select Download Size Settings. You'll have the settings there.
For the Exchange account, when editing, click Next (on the Edit server settings screen), then Next again (on the User Info screen), then select E-mail, click the Settings button. You'll have there the 'Download size limit' option, just like in the other accout types.
Hope it helps!
This is a per account setting, the list in on the last page of the settings.
The same one where you decide if you want your mails in HTML or plain text format.
At leats that's where it is for IMAP and POP accounts (I don't have any hot mail account, and I don't sync my exchange accoubnt so I dont' know for these two)

Sorry - my bad. I misread your post above.
how to view full (overview) email in one screen
Sometime we receive email in HTML format with some images, the email client does load them but can not view everything in one screen (if you know what I mean... it is like Opera to view full screen of a web page).
Is there anyway to tweak it to work this way? Rather than scroll to right and down. Afterall we can pinch to zoom in.

cannot see full inbox. only 25 show...help?

hey guys. i cannot seem to find how to view my whole inbox in the email application. i only see 25 emails.. i use gmail. any ideas?
Slide to the email screen. Click Menu>Sync options. It defaults to downloading just the last week's worth of emails. Make changes on this page to get more emails to show.
i don`t have the SYNC option you are refering to...for some reason it does not show. Is this the direct path? Menu/Sync ?
Yes when I click Menu one of my choices is Sync Options. Are you using active sync to sync the gmail?
start, tools, activesync, menu, options, highlight email, klick settings below, and change the number/timespan of emails to download (first dropdownmenu)

Well since i did not use exchange, when I go to the options you just described, it does not give me to click on "Option" . its white...as i cannot click on it... any idea?

Sorry my fault. If you dont use exchange you cant use those settings
In your case (pop3/imap) go to: email tab, inbox, menu, extras, options, click your email acount, timetable (or similar=2nd Option), download all messages (2nd dropdown menu) and you are done

My Emails won't download everything...

How do I make sure that every time sense UI downloads my emails from gmail, that it download the entire email? I hate it when I have to click "Get the Rest of the Message" to read it all.
I like to download the entire email because when I leave the house I have no Wifi to re-download them.
never had that problem. But i have gmail set up through activesync.

you probably dont have that problem because your emails are never long enough. being a busy business person, my emails are always long and detailed.
Can anyone help me?
I have the same problem. even though I check off "entire message" I still don't see the html pcitures in the mail unless I click download" in the message.
do some search. its not possible to download pics immediately --> safety feature of winmo you cant disable.

same problem mate
i checeked settings and nothing
have to choose download manully and then it says it will download on the next sync....grrrrr (my email syncs every 60 minutes)
And once more (as there are already douzens of threads about this):
For "normal" POP3/IMAP-Accounts: Email-Tab, Inbox, MenĂ¼, Extras, Options, Click Mail Account, Settings for DownloadSize (dont know how its called in EN)
For ASync: Open ASync, Menu, Options, Mark Email, Settings, DownloadSize
BUT AGAIN: You wont be able to download html-integrated pictures of the Mail immediately as it is a safetyfeature of WinMob !
