Help with mails sync - Touch HD General

Dear all,
I am not an expert of push mail and similar,
I create on the tab mail of TF3D, 2 mail folders (gmail & hotmail) and I would like to have them updated every 2 hours.
I tried to change the sync options of each folder but it is not working and when I check the mobile I see only the 3g connection ready but no sync at all...

Any way to Config OUTLOOK to send/ Receive?

Hey all.
At home I've my desktop outlook setup to my pop3 email.
Is there anyway to set this account so I can send/ receive to see if there is new mail - or (as I think is the case) do I have to setup a separate pop 3 account to be able to initialize send/receive.
Cheers fellaz!

I was asking the same question on other forums, but it seems that no1 considers this as a "normal" question; I have never got a reply...
When u sync your Universal with your PC, the emails are automatically downloaded into your Outlook E-mail account automatically.
To check your emails on the move, you'll need to set up a new POP3 account with the same settings as per your PC's Outlook....... and when u do a Send/Recieve, it's connected via your GPRS. E-mails downloaded into your Universal will still be downloaded onto your PC when u do a Send/Recieve on your PC's Outlook....That means the same email will appear in both the Outlook E-mail and POP3 accounts on your Universal
Wonder if I'm making any sense......

You do make sense, but… you have just explained to us what we’ve already knew. I would just like to have normal SEND/RECEIVE in pOutlook without having to setup the same thing on the side (my Yahoo pop3). And after that they could synchronize normally…
I hope that I made some sense now…
:?
Yup perfect sense,
the phrase that airbag14 was looking for was:
'no you can't, not to our knowledge'

I struggled for quite some time to make email work 'properly' on using my MDA Pro.
First, note that I use Outlook on the desktop. My situation is complicated because I have multiple accounts that I want to sync.
What I found was:
1. Syncing desktop & pocket outlook mail is useless, unless one uses exchange. There is no way to send and receive mail short of syncing with the desktop. And given that activesync 4 cannot sync over the net, means that messages I want to send are stored until I manage to get close to my desktop. Totally stupid design. Someone must have been smoking illegal substances when s/he came up with it.
2. Switching both desktop and PPC to POP sort-of works, but there are severe problems. The first is that a pop account on the PPC is completely separate from the outlook-synced account, so messages appear twice on the PPC. The second is that if either the desktop or the PPC delete messages off server, then the other device gets confused. Copying a message to another folder on the PPC causes the message to be removed from the server, so that it never arrives in the desktop. Read message indications are not reliable. etc etc.
3. Switching to IMAP on both the desktop and the PPC works the best. One ends up with a set of IMAP folders on both the desktop and PPC, separate from the 'normal' outlook inbox (which are no longer used). Operations on either the desktop or PPC are reflected in the other device when mail is checked. Of course, it is absolutely imperative that both devices download messages, not just headers.
So, in the end I have a set of IMAP folders on both devices for each account. Both devices are set up to download messages + headers. The desktop downloads the entire message + attachments. The PPC downloads 15K of the message and no attachments. Deleting a message on one deletes on the other (when mail is checked). Reading a message on one caused the message to be marked 'read' on the other.
Messages sent from the PPC show up in desktop outlook's IMAP sent items folder. The reverse is not true, because desktop outlook puts sent messages into a generic 'sent items' folder, not the IMAP one. This is not a problem for me.
I have turned off activesync for all mail folders, because sync is done using IMAP. I still use activesync for contacts etc.
FWIW, IMAP in desktop outlook has a few problems. The worst is that sometimes it decides to duplicate a message. IMAP is also a bit more sensitive to network glitches, "disconnecting" from the server and requiring outlook to be restarted to reconnect. In addition, as messages are left on the server more-or-less permanently, one might run into quota problems.
mailbox copy
I stumbled on this mailbox problem here again.
I got exactly this issue, as my provider gives me Pop3 (can't get imap to work), and I cant reply on mails when i'm out (outlook mailbox has no send-receive)
Now I figured out, that in case if I COULD do an mail-box copy on my device from outlook-inbox to anonther account inbox, and before syncing do and send-items-box copy back to outlook send-items-box, this would solve a BIG part of my problem.
Has anyone EVER heard of an app that can let you copy whole mailboxes between accounts on your PPC device?
I also posted this question befor but to be sure are you all saying in a round about way.........
i ave a pop email account on my laptop, this i sync with a cable to my Exec, And on my Exec i also have a pop3 account the same account as on my laptop....
so if i am out ( and my laptop is not on) i use the pop3 account on my Exec for sending and recieving mail no problem, BUT if whilst out i see from my Sync,ed email from the laptop befor i left in the morning a email i need to repley i cant, i wish i could read the email then tell it to reply / send via the proper pop account on my Exec not the sync account
Do you all have this problem
Thanks
John
I prolly dont understand the problem fully, because I think it has a simple answer. On your PPC dont sync the mail from outlook through activesync but set up a new (p-outlook) pop3 account with the parameters from the pop3 outlook account (minus the smtp-server offcourse, this should be the smtp of your phone operator). I have this setup and can send/recieve mail on my MDA Pro. When I get home I recieve all mail from that day on my pc, storing it on my pc. At the next send/recieve on my MDA Pro, all the mail collected by the pc will dissapear (on the MDA Pro) and new mail will arrive. If you want you can sync the outlook mail with your PPC but it will function as a old-mail-database next to your p-outlook pop3 account.
what I did was:
1. I Created a new mail account - POP3 - and configured it to be read just in O2 exec.
2. I configured my mail account to forward all mail to the mail account I created for the PDA, and also keep messages in my mail account, so I can read them in my PC as well.
3. I dont SYNC mails, just check them by using WIFI/GPRS/3G.
This is not very "polite" but works for me. anohter solution, IMAP, another, REAL MAIL from Vodafone.

Email Account on Touch HD

Hi folks,
i need some help by setting up an email account on my HD.
I have several mails (~500) in my outlook (at my notebook) by now, which i want to keep. Now i want those mails on my HD as well, so i was told to use an imap account by now.
so i copied all my mails to my googlemail account (using the lables for my folders i udes in outlook before) and now i am thinking about how to configure my HD.
I want all the mails in both devices, but when i set up my HD with Gmail an select all lables to sync, i get a couple of doubled folders. (2x sent items e.g.).
furthermore i want to set an option, that mails i ereased on my hd shoul be ereased permanently for the whole account - not only in my "inbox" folder.
finally i would like to receive the mails automatically every 30 minutes and after retrieving automaically to disconnect my data connection to save battery.
is there anybody, who knows the gmail-system (labels etc.) an can tell me, how to configure my HD according to my requirements i posted above?
thanks a lot in advance!!

Activesync hans on looking for changes

Hi all,
i have a new problem for few weeks and I wonder if you had some ideas
I am no more able to synchronize the mail coming from my company microsoft exchange.
I used to synchronize for years on my HTC Trinity and then HTC diamond.
I moved in an other country so my inbox has been moved to an other domain. The problem might have started with this change but I am not sure
Now when I try to synchronize it is synchronizing the folder and then looking for changes ; It can last few minutes and then it stops
I managed to synchronize the calendar and the contact ... so the only problem is the mails
I tried to synchronize all the mail or only 1 day and no difference
I tried different ROM and as I was on WM 6.5 I decided to go back to the default ROM but no difference
I tried to synchronize by USB(advances settings or not, windows XP or vista) or by 3G but no difference
I don't have any other idea
Can you help please ?
Thanks
You could try to add a new (local) mail account in Outlook. The next step is to setup this account on your device. Deselect the company mail account for synchronization. If it synchronizes the new account, the problem is either in your company mail account or in the settings for synchronization of that account. Please note that you can set the criteria (size/days) per folder/item. Perhaps some items have different settings then your inbox which you have set to 1 day. Check the 'Manage folders' item on your device which can be found in your Inbox under Menu, Tools, Manage folders.

Email Outlook account / Other accounts

Hi
I'm struggling to figure out the email set up on the HD2 and hope someone might be able to shed some light.
I have set up 2 email accounts "1 at mydomain dotcom"and "2 at mydomain dotcom" and they seem to be working fine. I used Start > Email > Setup E-mail and filled out all the boxes with the same settings as I use in Outlook on my PC (incoming / outgoing mail server etc)
When I send and receive mail it gets stored in a separate folder for each account.
But ...
There is also the "default" Outlook account which seems to be the one that syncs with outlook on my desktop. I cannot seem to set anything up in this account for sending and receiving email. It only seems to have two screens - one for sync options and one for Advanced E-mail Options. The latter has a box for "my email address" but no settings anywhere.
Am I missing the point somewhere ?
What I would like to do is set it up so that my PC and my HD2 are pretty much the same. I'd like to sync the two and have the HD2 able to send and receive mail from the either account and, store these in the Outlook folders
Any help or advice would be great
Stephen
You need to change it using Windows Mobile Device Center as it's set there to sync emails. I made the same mistake recently...
Wow - fast reply ! Thanks
OK so you're saying I can set up all my HD2 mail accounts within MDC ? I didn't notice that so will take a look
Thanks
Still struggling
OK, thanks, I found Mobile Device Settings in MDC
Change content sync settings
Sync wirelessly with Exchange Server
Manage a Partnership
Connection settings
Get device certificates
End a partnership
But none of these seem to lead me to a place where I can set up Outlook mail on the phone (othere than sync settings)
I don't have Exchange Server - just Outlook on my PC
I'm trying to set up my mail accounts in Outlook on the HD2 so that whether I send and receive mail from my phone or my PC both accounts are available inside the Outlook account rather than in separate accounts
Hope that makes sense ?
Thanks
Stephen
When I first setup my phone using WMDC it asked what I want to sync with my phone (contacts, notes, email, calendar, etc.). If you select emails it'll sync your Outlook emails to your phone but not the settings. If you want to get rid of the Outlook on your phone you have to change what you sync with it.
Just in case there is some confusion caused by wording of the question:
If you use WMDC, you can ONLY sync with the Outlook email on the PC BUT you can only update email when you connect to WMDC.
If you want to receive and send emails when mobile, you set up email accounts within the HD2 email programme. Hit the email tab, menu, add account.
Then set up like you would an account in outlook
Seems it may not do what I want
Thanks for your help guys - appreciated.
It sounds like this HD2 won't do what I need then.
Sync between my "local pc outlook" and the "phone outlook" is no good on its own.
If I have email accounts set up on the phone which are not part of the sync I won't have a record of my mails on my pc
I tried sending and receiving within "phone outlook account" and that only works when connected to the pc which does seem strange
If there's anything else I can try or if anyone has a workaround to handle all my mail from both accounts and sync them between the pc and phone I'd love to hear
Thanks

How to set up my email in HTC Sense

Hello everyone,
I've got myself a new databundle which allows me to be connected to the internet constantly and I want to set up my email.
Now if i connect my topaz it sync's my outlook mail automaticly, but when disconnected it doesn't get my mail, when 3G and connection on.
I want the following:
When i'm not using the PC, I want my HTC to get the incoming mail for me but once connected to the pc again, these mails should have to by synced so they appear in my PC outlook at the end.
I don't know how it works in example, if I get a mail with alot of images or attachements, does the HTC download them? Or does it leave those messages on the server? I cannot lose them.
Or do I have to setup my HTC to leave a copy on the server so my outlook downloads the new messages again for a second time? (In that way only the mails that arrive on the go appear in my HTC and I can delete them without worries) - but is that even possible?
I'm really bad at understanding this.
Hi,
have my Touch Pro2 set up like follows:
- imap connection to get all emails on the run. Means originals will be kept in your inbox.
- Sync connection to outlook with individual settings for what has to be synced. (can be set easily in the windows sync manager)
My Outlook is set up with a pop3 connection and finally collects the messages from the ISP-inbox to my local disc.
In that way I am always up to date but means a periodical syncing...
That seems what i need!
How can I setup the imap connection? I don't need all my mail on the HTC, i only want to store on my PC, just the new one's i like to read on the road when i'm gone, automatically being downloaded on my PC too when i'm on it again.
However, if I do sync my email with outlook, will the imap email and the synced outlook email be together in one folder or be seperated? Will there be doubles?
Thanks!
It seems that my ISP doesn't support IMAP. How can i set an option 'leave a copy of message on server' with my HTC and POP account?
well actually when I'm on the go, I recieve all my mails via the imap connection. Imap means, that you download the email every time, when you want to read it on you HTC as long as the mail is not collected by your outlook. When you collect your emails via otlook to your local PC-disc, the mails will not be any more available via the imap connection on your phone after manual or automatic "updating".
In my HTC I have three folders set up. 1 folder is my PC outlook, the other two my email-accounts (IMAP). After having collected all my mails by outlook, I have to proceed a sync between PC and HTC and all my local stored Emails are on my HTC. Set up what and how e.g. will be done via the Mobile sync software from Microsoft.
Btw.: check your mail provider again (FAQ or else). Cannot imagine, that any mail-provider does not offer any IMAP function. Just had it years before with my dadys mail accounts. there was e.g no POP3 solution available but IMAP4...
