E-Mail Settings - HD2 General

How can u lower setting so that it let's photos download without manually download e-mail photos?

go into your inbox, menu, tools, options, select the account, download size settings, then select download entire message.
edit: sorry. jumped the gun there. There's no way to do that through the settings...there might be a tweak or hack for that though. Not a big issue for me so I haven't looked around for it.

there is some stuff in THIS thread, regarding creating some reg keys, which seems to work for some types of embedded images. Not tried it myself, tucked it away for later testing.
But out of the box, its a security 'feature' (one of those wonderful microsoft features that comes with ' ' ) of mobile outlook.

find any option to change it.

Then i what i do is put the whole name in the frist name field how i want it dis played and it works, there may be another way as well
Have a look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=44809
You will have an option in the menu popup for a contact to store as First:Last.
HTH
if you're syncing with outlook you can set that as an option in the contacts page as well. sadly if you've got a bunch of contacts its going to take you a long time either way =\

Can't Delete Outlook Account! Help!

I've googled like crazy and searched these forums and cannot find a solution!
I added an email account to my Outlook that I now wish to delete or even just edit settings. For some reason, it doesn't show up under Menu>Tools>Options.
Its just not there!! It does show up in the account picker...but when I click on Menu>Delete NOTHING happens.
Its just...there!
I've seen a thread or 2 where people complain about this, but have yet to find a solution!
I have a theory that the Palm Messaging App that I'm using for SMS has messed something up within outlook. Thats just a guess though. I'm not sure.
I'm also using Sprint Mobile Email app. It has also added an outlook account that doesn't show up and is unable to be deleted or edited (however I wish to keep this one).
I'm comfortable going in and deleting registry settings or files to remove the extra account, I just can't figure out where to do so! This is driving me crazy. Help
and thanks in advance. This site is the best!
if you created the account using ActiveSync, open ActiveSync and select Menu->Options and then clear the checkmark for "E-mail". this should remove the email (account) from your phone. you know if all else fails, you can perform a hard-reset which will clear all email accounts, programs, contacts, etc., that you added to the phone. Settings->System Tab->Clear Storage is the same as a hard reset. Be sure to backup your contacts, pictures, ringtones, etc, to your laptop before doing the hard-reset.
Yeah I appreciate those tips. I was hoping to not have to do a hard reset but its starting to look that way. Now some of my Sprint Client fetched emails are getting into the phantom box for no reason what-so-ever.
I do have an exchange connection going for work, but that has nothing to do with the confused mailboxes. At least I don't think so. Hell, who knows. The phone seems to have slowed down since I installed exchange. Is that normal?
Looks like a hard reset may be in for tonight's excitement.
open outlook > menu > tools > options
highlite and hold the account you want to delete and select delete when the little popup opens.
it's not going to show up you just have to tap+hold the account for the delete to popup.. does it popup or you're saying it's not? sorta confused.
edit ok i re-read your post.. guess it's there just isn't deleting for you.. well the other option is to go in the registry and delete the email account key. but it shouldn't be a big deal because who deletes their email accounts regularly?
on my sprint touch outlook has an asterick next to it and the delete option comes up but you can't select it. I dont have email selected in activesnyc but I do have calendar, contacts, tasks and notes selected. Perhaps that's the reason outlook can't be deleted from the email accounts list?

Do you know where the email account key is? or which key it is?
How to change server credentials MS Mobile 6
You've probably sorted yourself out by now but if you haven't here's what you need to do.
Go to ActiveSync -> menu -> options, select Microsoft Exchange and then press delete. This will remove the ActiveSync relationship. Then just create a new one.

I have been trying to find answers for "messed up outgoing display name" when setting up email accounts & the (silent mail) or "stealth" outlook.
Bad entry in "exchange mail (outlook) windows mobile 6.5 and still can't find any visible means of deleting, changing or updating the "silent" outlook email settingsl 3 days non stop research and web searching...now, I find this site. Thank you!
I received my phone 4 days ago (and only received the HAND SET), after fighting carrier for 7 months regarding the non functioning phone with multiple defects that stared one week after full price purchase. No instructions, no charger, no connector cords for PC to HH Device, NOTHING! not to mention the sim card also missing.
Many individuals; tech support, advanced tech support, supervisors with carrier; support forums, product manufacturer, endless web searches, etc., etc., I was amazed and very frustrated with being treated like a complete idiot-(i will just leave it at the idiot part) and no solutions either until now. When researching the document "Deploying windows Mobile 6.5 phones with Microsoft exchange server 2010.,
It was so nice to see exactly what I was relating to and in my language (lol) YES here on this site - finally!
You all are so friendly & helpful! Like I mentioned I have only had my HTC Touch Pro2 for 4 days now, and being unable to locate the account management settings, I am very lost. I have no instructions either - have been going off web sites. I don't even know where to start to find solution here with your instructions, so if anyone can give a little more direction - it would be great
i need to know where to go to change server credentials MS Mobile 6 - (HOW do I get there? is ACTIVESYNC on phone or on my computer under the windows mobile device section, do I have my computer cord phone and pc hooked up together....
sorry, I was in schook when we hand wrote everything and a plunker typewriter was what we used for a manditory "typeing" class.... A little in the Flinstone Age - but really adapting - this phone was my stepping out, and I was and still am very excited to play with this new toy -
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You've probably sorted yourself out by now but if you haven't here's what you need to do.
I have only used a form of active sync on my Palm Pilot for nursing, b) but, that was hooked up and set up entirely tech department and they just told me what to do (enter contacts, updates like that into computer, then hook up the cords, and press the sync button" = that's it
Now, taking a deep breath because a solution is within reach I am ging to attempt the task but i do need step[step directions involving active sync and it has to be from the get go please....anyone.....
Hopefully others that get in this same slump will stumble upon this site, and help avoid such frustrations.
Thank you all for your knowledge base, and contributions, I am confident that the name floating in computer space hidden in the "Stealth" Outlook is beginning to appear.
Now onto the active sync, so I can get back to my state board review that took back burner for 3 days (oops)-
Thanks, worked for me too.

HTML Email on HD2

Hi All,
Is there any way of getting full html support for email on HD2?
Cheers
Uhm... could you detailt up a little bit?
there is 100% full support of html e-mails on HD2...
I think he means, that embedded pictures are not shown instantly. Thats not a lack or bug its just for your safety because some kind of malware is using this way to srew you up
Therefore you always have to click on "show blocked images" or whatever it says....
Well actually, I really like that feature since I would find it rather bad if my phone would start downloading lots and lots of kbytes with information on bulky newsletters...
I never tried this, but it could help: try setting up a larger value for the maximum download limit: thus you can allow larger e-mail to be completely downloaded automatically.
I admit I've never tried this, since I am actually fond of the default 2KB maximum limit!
Good luck!

That doesn't change the default action of not downloading images. You still need to click the link to do that.

You're wrong.
In the Message download limit combo box (drop down list), there are the following options:
- 2KB
- 5KB
- 20KKB
- 50KB
- All text, no pictures
- Headers only
- Entire message
Guess what happens when you select 'Entire message'...
If you use an Exchange accout, you'll have less options available. However, the 'Entire message' option is available, so no need to worry.
But if we got here, please keep in mind that Exchange 2003 doesn't offer HTML support across ActiveSync, with Windows Mobile (stupidity, I call it, for it works perfectly with iPhones!).
If you want HTML over ActiveSync, you should contact your server admin. and suggest him upgrading to Exchange 2007 (or even 2010 ).

You're so sarcastic that it is annoying. Every time I've come across you on these forums you have to attack in a VERY sarcastic way. STOP doing this.
You said, "I never tried this, but it could help: try setting up a larger value for the maximum download limit" Have you now tried "setting up a larger value for the maximum download limit" in order to try and help the OP, or did you decided that you'd rather just try bashing me.
"setting up a larger value for the maximum download limit" DOES NOT DOWNLOAD THE IMAGES.
Stop being so rude - these forums have a lot of long-standing and very friendly users. The best way to get on in here is to try and be the same.

Go to the Inbox of any accout -> click on the menu key (right soft) -> on the pop-up menu, select Tools>Options... -> choose an account to edit
Now, if you try to edit a GMail or Yahoo account (or probably any other account, except for the Exchange one), you can select Download Size Settings. You'll have the settings there.
For the Exchange account, when editing, click Next (on the Edit server settings screen), then Next again (on the User Info screen), then select E-mail, click the Settings button. You'll have there the 'Download size limit' option, just like in the other accout types.
Hope it helps!
This is a per account setting, the list in on the last page of the settings.
The same one where you decide if you want your mails in HTML or plain text format.
At leats that's where it is for IMAP and POP accounts (I don't have any hot mail account, and I don't sync my exchange accoubnt so I dont' know for these two)

Yeah - found it now. I've got a hotmail account (you don't have this option on there, same as exchange accounts), and a gmail account. I found it in the gmail one. Thanks.

how to view full (overview) email in one screen
Sometime we receive email in HTML format with some images, the email client does load them but can not view everything in one screen (if you know what I mean... it is like Opera to view full screen of a web page).
Is there anyway to tweak it to work this way? Rather than scroll to right and down. Afterall we can pinch to zoom in.

Can't modify e-mail settings.

I used to have, but now can't find the settings page for e-mail. I am going out of town, and want my email to download periodically. The settings window is nowhere to be found! It used to be a page that included Outlook and my GMail, and the idea was to hold stylus on the account to make modifications to the settings.
I can't delete an email account because...same window is missing.
Any ideas?
From inbox Menu select Tools > Options. This takes you to the page you wanted.
Thats what I thought also, but, there is NO tools to select!
I guess a hard reset is called for...darn.

Try to access your settings through active sync, assuming you had gmail running as exchange server.
I don't use an exchange server...I'm an old retired guy!
I have a few things to look at before I do the Hard Reset, which is the last thing I want to do.
EMBARRASED.
It has been so long since I have had to modify my email settings....after selecting MENU...it is a scroll up/down menu. Sorry for wasting the space and time.

Email, "get the rest of this message"....

I am annoyed of this, when I open an email...any email... it always says "get the rest of this message (_ _ k)"...I would like it to download the whole email right away (or at least I would like to know how to set it up to do so).... I did this :
Start -> E-mail -> Menu -> Options -> Tap an account to change settings - > Download size settings -> Message download limit -> Entire message
and it still seems to not download the entire message...
Are you using pop or imap email access? At least with IMAP it downloads the headers first, then the content, so you have to give it a minute or so if you've got a lot of email coming in.
Another setting to check is how many days worth of email to get - maybe it doesn't download "too old" emails as standard.
I dont have that problem.But, i will say that the email feature on windows phones (not specifically the HD2) needs alot of work. I mean,to be honest,its not REALLY finger friendly now is it?
"tap to scroll" "download images" i mean,come on.......

which e-mail provider are you using?
Some e-mail (like google for instance) will have settings that will allow you to access your e-mail via the outlook exchange server settings on your phone. This will allow your provider to push entire e-mails as they arrive.
Would be nice to have a more user friendly email app, wouldn't it ?

This is another gripe I had.... I was wondering is there any other email alternatives that actually work nicely with our phone...
see I compare things to the iPhone here n there because that was my last phone I had (and I had it since it first came out mind you so that is about 3 years)...so at least the iPhone had a decent email app (from what I could see)..it was user friendly and did not require alot of maneuvers to load/reload/check emails...
Now I am using Yahoo and Gmail, for those of you who asked....now it seems as though it is working correctly now (in regards to loading the whole email that is)....but as I just mentioned in the previous paragraph -I would like to see if there are any other good email apps for the HD2, does not have to be anything fancy even as long as it works nice n smooth and is user friendly... so instead of having to make a new thread or something maybe we could figure that one out here ? IDK, please advise me...
