I've set up two email accounts, an AOL and one in Outlook (work one).
Under options, it gives me the option to "delete" the AOL one but I want to delete the Outlook inbox and there's no option for that.
any ideas?
Go into Activesync, then munu, options select the account and delete.
perfect!
thanks

Cheers in advance

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.

I don't think you can delete the original Outlook account. I uncheck it in the Activesync list since I use Gmail IMAP. You could reroute your Hotmail through Gmail so that you have one place to get your mail and you would have a master copy in the Gmail "All Mail" folder. I have Gmail getting several accounts for me, I just get them all with Gmail IMAP.
Thats exactly what I wanted . THANKS!
Unchecked it in ActiveSync and it worked.
There is only one question I have. I have als set up gmail over imap. But I only see the inbox mails. In all other folders (tabs made in gmail) I dont see one mail. Could someone explain to me how I can set it up to see all mails I ever recieved in gmail?
Thanks!

Go to Gmail in Pocket Outlook/menu/tools/manage folders, click on the + next to Gmail at the top. Now you can select which email that you want transferred to your HD. I don't select "All Mail", but rather select Drafts, Sent Mail and Starred. BTW, the Sent Items under the normal Gmail Inbox should be unchecked for IMAP to work properly.

Thanks! Seems to work pretty well
Why should the sent items under the normal Gmail Inbox be unchecked for IMAP to work properly? Only curious to know why
I'll try to sync only some subfolders and the draft/sent mail/starred folders.

It makes duplicates of all the emails. I actually didn't use it that way because the directions from Gmail online gave instructions to disable the Sent Items folder.
I'm glad it's working for you.
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.
Thanks for reading this request...
Some how I have got an indication of 2 emails on the email indictor on my ORANGE UK Touch 3G.
I have checked for emails on the device but can't find anything I've missed. Any thoughts how to correct the indicator..
Thanks Phil
go to your email inbox. In the upper left corner, it should say inbox. If you click on it, you get a list of other folders, including sent, bulk, and trash. You might have one that says "Outlook Email" Check in that folder for unread emails. Probably have the subject "Email tips and tricks".
Hi,
Thanks for that, must have missed those Outlook ones tucked away....
Phil
No prob. Always comes up after you set up a new exchange or activesync or something. forget which does it.
little bit off topic
Is it possible to get rid of Outlook E-mail folders?
I sync only my contacts and calendar from Outlook, never email. It is not ticked. My default email program on my desktop PC is Windows Mail, not Outlook. But the Outlook folders are there cluttering the screen.

AFAIK the outlook Inbox is defaulted and cannot be deleted. When you uncheck, it just do not sync with your PC/notebook, but the folder is still there. Similar with other email accounts.
Thank you, azahidi

Hi, i manually set up my email account for hotmail, but when i out my sim in it made another for hotmail, so now i have 2 hotmail accounts of the same mail.
How do i remove one, there is nothing in the options only edit?
I also have this problem, would appreciate an answer for it!
HTC Sense, Mail tab
Right softkey ("Menu")
"Account settings" option
Right softkey ("Delete")
Select accounts to delete
Left softkey ("Done")
If you want to remove the Outlook account, do so through WMDC.
Thanks for the reply Yunabeco, but I think the issue jrvenge and I are having is that, that option is greyed out so we are unable to delete the account in the way you just described.
Inbox - Menu - Tools - Options - tap and hold on account you wish to delete, select delete after popups menu
Hey thanks it worked, just cant do it in the sense menu, i keep forgetting its a wm phone and you have to go into windows settings to do things not in the sense gui
Argh, still greyed out for me. Gonna kill every process in task manager, see if that helps.

Thanx...!!!
Nope
, i press and hold the hotmail account in the list, the popup has one entry - Delete - but it is still greyed out. Arrrrrgh. Any movement on this issue?
Sam
Oh, simple.
Ahhh sorted it.
Sorted it. Start - Windows Live - Menu - Account Options - Switch Windows Live ID - Confirm the warning - (Reject the new terms of service page if it comes up, this only happened the first time i did this, not on subsequent tests)
and you should find the hotmail inbox and contacts are gone.
Press and holding the account name and finding it greyed out seems understandable now, because more that just the email inbox is conected. If you still want the contacts, log back in to live, but untick teh sync email option.
Hi
I've tried all of the above and other bits but STILL the hotmail account is greyed out.
I went to the options window to remove it and surprisingly its not even listed, but when i look at the email tab, its sitting there?!?!
I've removed the link to Windows live as listed, i've removed all other email accounts in the hope that the hotmail account will become active so that i can delete it.
Hair pulling time!!!!
Any advice pleeeeeaaaaasssseeeee
I was also looking for this since now it is possible to use Exchange Sync for hotmail accounts: http://windowsteamblog.com/internat...lendario-y-contactos-exchange-activesync.aspx
To remove it go to MSN, options, change the user login, then Reject. You end up with no hotmail accounts.
