does the email application have to be running for auto-detection? also, is there a way to delete emails in the trash folder without them reloading (and keep them on the server)?
thanks,

Quick question.... I searched and didn't find anything on this:
I'm going on vacation and want to keep the Inbox clean on my 8125 by deleting non-critical messages. Is there a way to delete those non-critical messages on the 8125 and NOT have them deleted on the server? I still want them to be in my Outlook Inbox when I return to my desk.
Thanks for your help!
Use POP3 from your Phone or set your exchange accout to auto forward a copy to an external e-mail accoutn and use that.
move the e-mails to a folder "For Follow Up"
Hi all,
I've just started using Exchange with my 8125. I have rules on the server that automatically move incoming mail to specific folders. This is great on the desktop because there is an "unread" mail folder that displays all of the unread mail.
The issue on the phone is that when a new mail arrives through exchange, it is moved automatically to the folder without any alerts. I actually have to dig down into the folder to realize that there's a new unread email.
- Is there anything equivelent to an "unread" folder on the WM5?
- Are there any 3rd party programs that will alert of new email and/or display the new emails?
- Are there betters ways/methods for accessing email?
Thank you in advance for your assitance!
Cheers!

Hello there Lu.
I too am learning Exchange. As someone who does not have an Exchange account at work (we use Groupwise) I signed up for a personal Exchange account. So between that and my pobox.com account I think I am spending a little over $100.00/yr on email. Plus data fees, etc. WOW!!
But on to your questions.........
The best that I have been able to find is that one can only get alerts on the Today screen when a message hits the "Inbox". So if you want to see if any of your other folders have gotten messages you'll have to navigate to them.
As for a universal "Unread" folder I know of no way to do that either. Hopefully someone here will correct me but I don't think so.
Regards,
David
I have about 20 sub folders off my main inbox for exchange server 2003. Only the items in my main inbox are counted as items unread on my device. If i have say 4 emails in another folder, it does not show that they are unread unless i click the inbox and switch to that folder. I want to know if i have unread messages in all my folders just from looking at the today screen. Is there a fix for this? Also push mail only seems to work for my main inbox too, not for the subfolders, i have to manually syncronize to get the rest of the messages to download. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I'm not even able to get the email from the other folders on my cell phone. Only email from my inbox comes in - are there any settings I can change for this?
yea. with the mail inbox open go to manage folders, then you can tell it which folders to sync
Is that not because of how outlook works?
I think it's always been like that: It just tells you how many mails you have in your inbox, subfolders are not included...
I tried to search but could not find anything.
On my exchange email, I've got multiple folders and emails are sent to the different folders directly.
In HTC email program, I can look at other folders and see unread email there but I can't see unread emails (and get notifications) across all folders, except of course if I missed a configuration?
That's the way it works. If you've got rules to move mails to Exchange folders you won't get new mail notifications. Same thin happens if you use Outlook as the email client, you won't get any notification for mails that got to folders.
What bugs me is that if you hit menu->folders then the unread count isn't shown there - unless I'm missing something

I also am trying to figure this out. I basically want the ability to receive and be notified of all emails including all subfolders. Regarding Fed's comment, I agree that's how it's supposed to work, but in Outlook you can set a rule to display a notification. In my Outlook I set that as the top most rule for all incoming email so I get a notification no mater what rule runs. Even my BBerry allowed me to select folders that were also monitored and hence a notification and email were recieved. HTC however doesn't seem to have an option to do this. It actually sounds like you guys are getting a step further. If I select menu --> folders I see the folders, but not the email within the folders. Anyone know how to setup notifications and receive email for subfolders in exchange on the HTC?
I want to add that before I used Touchdown and touchdown can show emails from all selected folders.
Are follow-ups working for you (mine are auto-flagged in outlook)?
For info, I've asked the question to HTC. Good news, they replied.
Bad news...
There is no setting for notifications on new mails in servers specifiaclly, If you are using a Windows Mobile based phone you can set these folders to be synchronized and on new mails in these folders you should get a notification upon new mails. On our Android based devices there is sadly enough no way to do this.
Anyone else having this issue? Using the stock email program I've set up my business email accounts using IMAP. When I delete an email it does not get moved to the trash folder. It deletes the email from the inbox on the Xoom, but the email actually still remains on the server. My host is 1and1.com, but they shouldn't be the issue because it all works fine on my DroidX.
Thanks,
Steve
