i have 3 email accounts in my HD2, i can receive emails without a problem EXCEPT.... when i delete emails, i always have to do it twice.
The ones from the HD2 and the ones from the server, is there anyway so i can just do it once?
If you delete the emails off the HD2 it does not delete them off of the server. You will have to do that each time if you start on the HD2.
I may be wrong on this (and I am sure I will be corrected if I am), but I believe that if you delete the amils off the server first then upon refresh the HD2 will not find them anymore so you may only have to delete them in one place depending on where you start, but I need that verified.

Hi,
I have a XDA Exec with the newest Qtek ROM installed with AKU2 push email.
I have an account with 4Smartphone which gives me an Exchange Server account and so I have been experimenting a bit with push email and have hit a problem.
What I have found is that the push email process works perfectly so long as I don't include the "Sent" folder in the list of folders to synchronise. However, whenever I put a check in the box next to the "Sent" folder in the list of folders to synchronise in Pocket Outlook, push email seems to break for me.
What happens is that email takes up to 8 minutes to arrive instead of arriving almost immediately as it should.
In these circumstances, whenI look at the logs generated by the Push email process on my device I see that the ping from my device to the server is returned immediately indicating that there is a change to process. This causes my device to do a sync to get the new data - and there isn't any. After this happens a couple of times, I think that my device then deliberately starts to introduce the 8 minute delays so that excessive data is not transferred due to the constant syncs.
The question is why does the server say that there has been a change even when there hasn't been?
If I don't include the Sent folder in the sync list, this behaviour doesn't happen so it seems as if the server thinks that the Sent folder is always changing.
Any ideas anyone?

Hi. I am using an unbranded Hero on Voda in the UK and everything seems to be more or less fine, except... I have a strange email problem.
I have set up my POP3 account to check and deliver mail every five minutes (I don't use Gmail for this) and it works absolutely flawlessly except that every few days it simply stops receiving. The phone seems to poll as usual, but the mail just doesn't arrive, although it is there and later arrives in my Outlook inbox on my PC.
I have made no changes, installed no new apps or really done anything at all before the mail stops arriving. The only way around it is to remove the account and set up a whole new one, which is a pain - the main problem, though, is that I miss emails until such a time as I realise that it has stopped working.
Email is VITAl to me - does anyone have an idea as to what I can do to get around this please?
Many thanks, in advance.
download K-9 mail from the market place.
Try it using this program. If it contniues to fail after a few days, the issue is with the network or the server and we know where to look for issues.
If it works, then it's the HTC Mail program that is at fault, but you now have a program which does not have the fault and you can now receive your emails ok.
Are you killing any tasks, I have found that you need the HTC mail program running for it to poll for the mails.

I am only killing Tweet and Stocks, but otherwise nothing. Can the mail programme turn off itself for any reason? Besides, it is polling - just not actually collecting anything. Many thanks!
Same problem
I know its an old thread but I didn't want to start a new one yet.
I'm having the same problem with my BT email. Its OK for a week or so then just stops fetching the emails from the server. I delete the account, re create it and it works fine again.
Any thoughts?
I've noticed that mine sometimes doesn't alert when it downloads the email, I get an alert but the actual sync time is 10-20 minutes before.

This has got so bad that I have had to 'turn off' the HTC mail function and downloaded the free k9 app, which is actually better, as it automatically deletes messages from the phone when you delete them from the server (or read them on your desktop.) I recommend it...
have you checked whether your trash folder is full? I was getting the same, and then once I went in and delted all the mail from the trash folder, I started getting mails again. There doesn't seem to be a way of automatically deleting mails from the trash folder?
I am having real problems with my push gmail account.
I suspect I may have part of the answer but not all.
I am finding that sometimes emails are just not coming through as new emails.
In some cases when I send/receive or so an activesync it will even "see" that there are 1-3 email (ie it counts 0/3 etc) but will not bring them to the inbox.
I think that one way it gets confused is if, say, I have had a new email which it decided not to d/l and then I read it on the computer but I then get more emails from the same person replying about the same topic
Even if I get other new emails it just will not d/l any new ones until I have deleted the semi-unread/semi-new ones from the inbox - as you can imagine this would be a real issue if they are ones I need to keep!
Another possible culprit I wondered was if the account was signed into at the time by Gmail Mansger in FireFox.
I tried sending one having disconnected GMM and it sent through a new one [admittedly I had deleted the prior non-fetched test ones by this stage.
It is driving me batty.
Anyone able to shed any light please?
I have played a fair bit.
If there is an email in my gmail account newer than on my phone but that I have read online that seems to screw up the downloading. It seems to see how many there are are I don't know where it puts them.
If I delete all these and then try to send one sometimes it works fine, other times I have to manually sync to get one and I can't find a pattern at all
i own the hd2 t-mobile usa version
so like all of you, i was frustrated that deleting a gmail off of the hd2 (when set up via imap which is automatic from the normal gui setup) didn't work.
in searching these forms i saw that many of you have set it up via activesync. this is my first smartphone and due to my ignoance, i couldn't figure that out. i have outlook via activesync which works great, but can't figure out how to setup another e-mail address via activesync. i saw this page google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138636&topic=14299via another thread here, but when i go to active sync on the hd2, all the setup options are greyed out. (if anyone could help me here, I would appreciate it)
anyway... so i decided to press on and found this. when you have the gmail inbox open and you go to menu - tools - options - gmail - edit account setup - 6 screens over - advanced settings (really!?!? i mean really!?!?) there's a drop down that has two options:
1. move them to server trash
2. delete them off server
the default was set to "move them to server trash." i changed it to "delete them off server." i then sent myself an email, deleted it on the hd2, and unfortunately it came back when i hit send/retreive.
knowing that didn't work, i went back to the above setting and put it back to the default "move them to server trash." when i tried it again, it worked. i've done three test e-mails to verify and it works fine -- every time i delete off of hd2, they don't come back (and they are in the trash folder on gamil server).
oh the whoes of smartphones... hope this works for you. (here's 3 hours of my time i'll never get back) good luck everyone and let me know.
Awesome dude! Many thanks for this, It was always a pain to receive emails at work, delete them, to onyl get home and have them come back down in Outlook!
ok well here's an update. it apprears there's a bug in the sence gui. if you delete the email from the sence gui (menu - delete message), the email comes back.
however, if you delete from the gmail inbox (select inbox on gui -- lower left, select the email you want to delete, press delete and you get a confirmation window), it will also delete from the gmail server (move to trash folder).
can someone else verify this?
Yea, same issue here. If I delete from Sense UI, it comes back when I press send/receive. Deleting from the inbox is the only way i can get things to delete properly.
Strange thing you're talking about, until now I never encountered this issue, mails never come back after I deleted them from My HD2.
I upgrade the ROM very often and never had this issue (stock roms, Dutty's ones and now Topix ones)...

howling, are you specifically talking about gmail?
ATT Samsung Galaxy S4, stock; Question refers to RoadRunner e-mail.
Is it possible to choose whether to delete specific e-mails from server when deleting them from the S4 handset? Only thing I've been able to find is when setting up an e-mail address, allowing e-mail to be deleted from server (which ALWAYS deletes it), or never allowing it. Just went to this phone a few days ago. With my past several phones, I have gotten into the habit of when deleting e-mails from the handset, deleting some of them from both the handset & the server, and leaving ones on the server that I wanted access to later on another device or system.
