How to sync all email accounts at once? - HD2 General

Hi guys,
I tried to search but couldn't find answer to my question:
Is there a way to sync all email accounts at once, so I don't have to scroll down to each account and press update.
Thanks
Pete

mail accounts...more then one POP3 account

somehow I cannot complete the process to add another mail account
Ive added gmail, now I wanted to add my school email account but it will not go any further then step 4/5, no matter what I try. I am not connected to the internet, which supposedly is good (the help file says so)
anyone run into this problem?
I have two pop accounts installed on my Jam, works no prob. there is a page when configuring the accounts the has Account information account type POP3 and by default has Name as POP3...have you been changing the names? because it will probably cause a problem having two accounts named POP3. I call my account Yahoo and Uni mail and have never had a problem.

Email Problems

I know I've posted this topic before but this problem is really doing my swede in so absolutely any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have two email accounts set up on my HD, a Hotmail account and my main account from my ISP - BTinternet.com.
The Hotmail acc is fine. When a message is received I get the sound alert, vibration, and the little green number marker on the manila tab.
With my BT account I get nothing. It's set up the same in sounds and notifications but I get nothing! Not even the indicator on the tab. When I go to my inbox the emails are there all opened as read.
Please! Any ideas where I'm going wrong?

Email problem

Hi guys. It's my first post here. I need help on my htc snap non camera version.
Everything worked fine till one day I wanted to "start all over" again. So I factory reset.
After I did that, everything was ok except my email. I setup my email accounts but whenever i want to send an email, there isn't anyone in my contact list.
Do you guys remember just after setting up email, you will receive tip and tricks message? When you try to key in the first few letters of the email add, the whole email address will appear below? Mine does not at all. I cannot find any email contacts also.
Please help me out guys...
Guys... anyone?
A factory reset cleans your phone from everything. It's like reformating your pc. All gone bye bye. You'll have to add all your contacts and emails again unless you saved them.

Thank you for your response but i clearly don't remember adding any email contacts at all. It was all synced somehow. But now I don't know how to get them back.
It was already synced with my email box.
Here is another qns guys,
If my method does not apply to others, how do you guys sync your email contacts than?
I sync my contacts with my Thunderbird address book using BirdieSync.

Reading already read emails IMAP

Hi guys,
i got an issue that i cannot solve and the search function didnt give any solutions.
I got gmail IMAP Account on my HD2 and when i click on send and receive, only the unread emails are downloaded.
I should be able to see all emails if i go to the folder "all emails" and press send/receive again, but altough it connects, it doesnt download anything.
So the question: Is there a way to see your already read emails on your mobile phone in wm6.5 with the hd2
Thanks in advance,
Ali
are you checking teh mail from another machine? (PC perhaps) that could be removing the messages once you send and recieve from there.

i do, but it doesnt remove or download them.
When going into my gmail account online, i still can see all entries.
i checked that already
Are they in the inbox or in "all mail" in Gmail?
Only those in the inbox will display. If your other PC moves them out of it (or gmail does it on its own once the mails are retrieved by the PC) they wouldn't show.
Must be such an issue, because I use 3 imap accounts on my HD2, that are also used by 2 other PCs, and everything's fine. Those are on my own server though.
If you use gmail on the HD2 you might want to use activesync instead of imap though....

They are not moved out, in my gmail account i can see all emails in "all mail" and "inbox"
But even if, the mobile email app also has a "all mail" folder of gmail so it should work anyway
The active sync thing is not a thing you can use when you arent at home. i would like to read new emails on my phone too.

I think I see what you mean, I encountered the same "issue" and found the solution "by accident": by default the Gmail account is set to keep emails from the 3 or 6 previous days, so that it erases the messages older than 3 or 6 days on you HD2. You can set a different time period, up to 30 days I think, but no sure...
The thing is I can't remember where it is... sorry, but that may be a lead...

No, it's actually better than just imap as it enables mail push. So instead of having to check mail every X minutes it's in permanent connection through activesync over data, and you simply receive mail as soon as it arrives on your gmail account.

i know, with wm6.1 you could assign that, this isnt possible anymore as the new account options are very few

oh! i didnt know that, do i have an "imap-like" function with it too even if using a non imap client such as "pop"? I mean are mails erased after syncing them to my mobile phone from server?
i ll go and start googling how to setup my mails through active sync ...
thanks for the hint!
hmm, no good finding in xda with google.
Kilrah, can you tell me where to set it up?
Its not the usual sync-email feature where you connect your phone to the connectivity center.
is it the "outlook" account when in email tab??
If yes, whats the server adress?
im confused )

Yes, works pretty much like imap.
Regarding how to choose for how many days it will display, it's still there, still at the same place. Don't forget to scroll the menu down

Just add google mail account and wait, it will kick in on its own.
It can take a while for google contacts to sync. When I had WP7 on my phone it synched with facebook immediately but my contacts on google didnt update for a few hours.
I guess patience is the best solution Wait and it will come... eventually
Mark.
Go into Google Mail you've setup earlier, there's a menu for sync. Click and it'll start to sync all the contacts. U'll see them at the top.
