Hey all,
I've been having some problems with POP3 and gmail on my TyTN/8525. That problem being: it doesn't work anymore. It worked great for about a week, then just stopped working for no apparent reason. I didn't change any of my gmail settings during this time.
After it stopped working, I randomly got 5 of the 100+ e-mails that I was suppsoed to get. Gmail is receiving them fine and I can see them when I login to gmail, they just don't get downloaded when my phone pops it. I can send e-mail through gmail's pop fine.
Anyone have a clue what my problem might be?
Thanks,
Todd

Which wireless provider?
Have you tried deleting the Gmail account on the TyTn and then re-adding it?
Can you POP3 access it from you'r home computer etc (to make sure it is not a Gmail issue)?
If these do not help post you're setup so we can take a look
I think the problem seems to stem from the fact that Gmail breaks down your messages in groups, like around 300 or so messages at a time. On top of that, Pocket IE doesn't download the full messages by default and, as such, leaves a copy of the messages on the server. I think when this happens, Gmail doesn't prepare the next "group" of messages to send to you. Also, Pocket IE, by default, is set to show only messages from the last 3 days, so even though it may have downloaded a bunch of messages, you'll only see the ones that are 3 days old or less. You'll want to uncheck that option.
Try setting up your account as you normally would in the desktop mail app of your choice, Outlook Express for example. Make sure it isn't set to leave a copy of the messages on the server. If Outlook Express didn't download the first group of messages, make sure to do a manual send and receive. That will hopefully tell Gmail to prepare your next group of messages. Alternate Send/Receives with your phone and Gmail until you get to your most recent messages. Also, try putting recent in front of your user name, IE, "recent:[email protected]" instead of just your user name/e-mail address.
i find with gmail that it stops working every few weeks and i have to go into gmail on my pc and re-check the Get all pop email from now, ( it seems there are too many emails to be sent down )
using the "recent:" prefix before your login in your outlook username should fix this.

Very happy with my new HD2. However i have a problem with my push gmail, or maybe it is an exchange problem in general, don't know. When i set up an exchange account with google server, i should be able to recieve push email, sync my calender and contacts and so on. On my previous phone (samsung omnia2) it worked like a charm. Somebody sends my an email on my gmail adres, and within 30 secs i received the mail. Same with outlook calender, it synced immediately.
With my HD2 (rom version 1.43.404.1 NLD) my mails don't arrive instantly! sometimes it takes over two houres before i receive something. Same with calender and contacts. I tried a hard reset of my device. First thing afterwards was settingup google exchange, and it worked again. Then i added a second mail account, set this account to auto receive every two houres and the problem with the exchange account comes back! the strange thing is when i watch my active sync status on my phone, it says connected, and when i send a mail from my pc, a couple of seconds later i see activesync syncing, like its receiving the mail, but it doesn't show in my mailbox, no poppup, nothing... only few houres later, suddenly i get the mail...
my exchange account is set to 'receive on arrival of items' should be push, also, comm manager says push activated....
sounds familiar to anybody?
I think this was a problem on gmails end yesterday, bearing in mind that gmail push is in beta. I had the same on my i8910, where previously gmail push was working perfectly.

and do you have a second, normal email account? It's from the moment i created the second account i ran into trouble...
tried reverse order? email first then exchange?
maybe after a hard-reset
I haven't got a HD2 but on my TP if I go out of coverage area for a time and then come back in, my activesync doesn't always reconnect. Saying that I have noticed it a lot less since banging a 6.5 rom on there. I have to add I am not using google sync, I am using fast hosts. I am going to migrate to google sync after this month to save some pennies so I hope it works good by then.
I ONLY have google exchange sync, it synched my calendar and contacts in seconds, and the e-mail FOLDERs, but not a single message. i left it 8 hours... (i've checked the messages to only do 1 week, 3 days, whatever)
i've tried soft reseting, two hard resets, ONLY e-mail, no e-mail, toggling e-mail. it will not retrieve any messages. in the end im using IMAP but its very frustrating/!
anyone got any other suggestions?
-------
oh and to add insult to injury my iphone 3GS is sitting here merrily binging away everytime i get en e-mail!
If you are doing a send/receive for a folder this will not work you have to select the folders to sync by putting a tickbox in each one and then let it do its stuff.
Before I did this on mine all I saw was folders and no content (apart from the inbox)
Hope this helps.
but i just want my inbox to sync? which it does not.. and there is no checkbox next to that one, its in bold, which i assume means that one has to sync by default?
for me it does work right now. My solution was to delete my windows PC active sync connection. before, i synced with windows to get my contacts and calender, and then afterwards i set up my exchange connection. But from the moment i deleted the Windows PC connection, and working only with exchange everything works pefectly! Even created a second pop email account, refreshing every two houres, my push connection still works fine....
Ok, i figured out my issue, and im surprise dit isnt documented anywher eon google,i found it on one of their forums and a member there discovered it, not a google Mod.
If you have subfolder under your inbox, it wont work.
i.e. if you have any "/" in your google mail labels (which is how GMAIL sets itself up if you use outlookwith IMAP on it),then it wont sync
i had sub folder sin outlook, so in gmail they becme labels such as:
Inbox/Ebay
Inbox/personal
and the "/" trips up the exchange sync. which seems very strange considering that the phone correctly recognises them as labels.

So it means that there is no way it will sync the emails under these labels?
I tried re-entering my details yesterday, after having it on hourly retrieval for a few days. Now sync appears to be working fine, from others reporting similar it looks like Google was doing some work on it for a few days that was breaking new sync setups.
now it works fine
I tried searching this forum but could not find any reference to my problem.
I have configured my device to link with our corporate exchange server. I know that I have read all the messages, but I still get the green bubble with number 1 in it. I have tried using the "MarkAllMessagesRead.cab", but no luck. I know there is no unread message.
This persists even after a soft reset.
Anyone has a similar issue and/or a fix?
I have the same problem! Hope it can be fixed.
The problem started after I flashed the new 1.48 ROM.
You don't have any sub folders that gets emails moved into it by a rule automaticaly do you? Some AV solutions do this and have a seperate folder for SPAM etc.
Well, I have managed to solve the probelem, though the method would not have been my first choice.
I deleted the exchange account on my HD2 and recreated it. It is ok ........for now.
I am an avid flasher of ROMS (flashing my HD every alternate days) and never had this problem on any version of windows mobile.
Anyway, all's well.
Same problem
Hi.
I have the same problem.
I have try`d deleted my gmail account, my exchange accounts and my hotmail account.
Problem is that I can`t delete the hotmail account. It is not "highlighted" in the meny where I can delete accounts. Gmail is no problem to delete.
Anyway, I set up the gmail and exchange accounts with home computer and google calender again after I failed to delete the hotmail account, and suddently I have 2 unread email in the sense menu! WTF? It is very annoying because I belive it is causing the sound notification when email arrives to crash. It is no sound when new email arrives.
Hope somebody can help! All this started after I flashed the 1.48 ROM
Sorry for the crappy english!
i also have the same problem, i have a green ball with a one in it on the email envelope on the taskbar , ive tried deleting all my email accounts but it remains ! ? any ideas ?? please !!
ok, im officially an idiot !! it turns out there was some kind of read receipt in the default outlook folder, no idea how it got there and as i dont use outlook didnt check.................................im an IDIOT !
i have the same issue, i have removed all the email accounts, but the counter still shows 1...
ANyone know how to fix my litle problem?
I got my Gmail acc. and on Pc i can read all mails and seee all folders, but when i connect to gmail on my HD2 it seems it cant recive my inbox mails. I can send a mail and get it on my Hd2, but cant read my old mails that already are in my inbox on my Gmail.
Anyone know if it is maybe some thing i have forgot to do, to let HD2 download all mails even old ones in inbox?
Has it been setup as IMAP or POP?
Seems i got it to work now tho, just from no where it stop doing what it has done for 2days and now working.
typical technology.
glad its working.
Hey guys,
I have similar problem.
My HD2 can sync with my Gmail's inbox fine, it's grabbing new emails now problem. I have then gone into manage folders and instructed it to sync with a couple more folders, with the setting of grabbing all email messages (date = all & text only).
At first it appears to be doing what I wanted but it stopped soon after, I went into the mail folders on my HD2 and it only sync'ed 30 most recent emails or so, but not the full lot.
Does it take a few sync attempts to get the full mail folder or something is not right?
hey,
i had the same problem on my HD2 aswell on my experia, dont know why but when i accidentally disabled vodafona's proxy all my emails came in, so i tried it on the HD2 and it also worked
As a side question, have set my gmail to google sync with HD2's exchange account. However, when sending out email, there isn't any copy left in the Sent Items folder, even though in the settings I have already ticked the "Save a copy in Sent folder"...any idea why?
Hi
Before the latest update to my HTC Desire HD, I couldn't setup a hotmail account using exchange server. However, after the update, its seems to be fixed (maybe).
After setting up my hotmail account using exchange server, inbox keeps refreshing forever until I press stop/cancel or sometimes it says syncronisation key corrupt or invalid after some time.
When I open inbox again, it refreshes the whole inbox and not only retrieving new messages.
Does anyboyd have the same problem and maybe fixed it somehow? I would like to use my hotmail account using IMAP/Exchange so devices are syncronized
Hope someone have fix for the refreshing problem.
Youve got further than myself, i cant even add Hotmail exchange in the first place!
The stock 2.2 mail app works but doesnt update the widget to show how many unread emails are in the inbox.
What a pain.

If it works for you then I think you got it almost working
So with stock 2.2 adding a hotmail account using exchange server, works without any problems? And it does not keep refreshing when you open inbox folder?
