How refresh Mail app for Peak & non-Peak - Droid Incredible General

Coming from Windows Mobile using activesync I used the peak and non-peak option for email. OS 2.1 did not have this option...but Froyo 2.2 does...however it does not always work correctly on the schedule.
I want to see work emails from 8-5p so after 5pm is non-peak and no mail is checked...however I still get mail after 5pm because it is still on the peak schedule. If I reboot my phone and then check the send/receive schedule it is on the correct schedule for MANUAL for after 5pm.
So it does not automatically switch and only rebooting fix the schedule. Is there a way to kill the mail app and bring it back up...but this still defeats the purpose of a schedule if I have to do that each day...
Any solutions..??

Anyone using the peak non-peak mail setting out there and seeing what I am seeing???

I use the peak and non peak check, but during the non peak I don't have it set to manual which I think may be your issue. I'll try it tomorrow and get back to you tho.

Email Delay

I'm having troubles with pop email accounts, I'm not being notified for new emails, they do not show up in my inbox until i manually open the email client - I have my client to auto check every 5 minutes, yet if I don't check for half a day and then login I have emails from all times of the day being loaded into my inbox.
my friend is having the issue, was wondering if anyone else was?
It's with hotmail, yahoo and ever business emails servers.
suggestions?
Thanks in advanced
nobody noticed that there email isn't polling when it should be?
If you are using an app-killer, make sure your email app isnt killed with it, since that would eliminate the option to auto-fetch emails.

Im sure yore battery life wont last 2 days. and why did you setup pop3? Go for Imap it saves resources and disk space.
Let your computer do POP3 work.
no appkiller of any kind installed
I just noticed now I havn't received emails to my phone in the last 3 days, I had to manualy open the app to fetch it, update is set to 30 min
I use moxier and it updates and polls fine,
email app doesn't.

On the first day I got the phone, before doing anything (root) to it, I also noticed that it didn't poll. Had it set for 5 minutes, background data on and it did nothing. Never polled once all day.
So rather than waste my time with something (else) from SE that didn't work I just installed K-9 Mail and never looked backed since
i have all my accounts forwarded to my gmail which i believe is push on android phones (someone correct me if im wrong), although this probably doesnt save battery life, i prefer having my email pushed

agree...just let gmail take care of it
I prefer to reply or send emails from my actual email account, I did use k9 for a while and it was working and i do like all the additional advanced features it offers. All I need is basic send/receive from a basic client and the android email app is suppose to work like that.
thanks so far guys

The regular email client is a bit lacking. Your issue isn't common though. Must be just missing something in the setting somewhere...if not you could always do the total reset on the phone i guess if you really had too.
I recently just caved in and made the full switch to Gmail for all of my accounts. Much easier to manage. It IS full push email I believe, plus imap makes things so much easier it's not even comparible.
It's too bad the gmail app on the phone won't let you send from multiple addys, but the web interface is good for sending from a diff addy in a pinch.

Just checked it today, App killer was set for auto kill after a hour. Disabled, now push email works.....

Can I put Exhcange on a sync schedule like WM device

On my TP2 using active sync I could tell it to not push mail after 5pm and not on the weekend. I am using the HTC sync and do not see any option like this. Is there a way to put the exchange push on my DINC on a schedule??
TIA...
I use the app timeriffic to stop notifications at night. That may be the only windows mobile feature i miss.

I wrote email scheduler for the WM, and wanted to port it to Android, but you can't access the email functions from another program. Kind of sucks.

I suggest just turning off notifications like dspero said.

How to schedule the email push..?

Had a WM device and could schedule activesync to push during peak and non-peak times? I do not want to see any email after business hours and then I want it to pick back up during business hours...
Are there any apps on the market that can do this?
No, Android doesn't allow programs to change settings in other programs, unless specifically designed to do so. The only other option is to make the phone silent during off peak times. I am working on a program for this, but in the mean time, check out silent time in the market, it does sortof what I am talking about.

[Q] Email not auto checking?

Have a weird problem. Got the Epic on release day, set up my two emails that I want to be able to check from the phone, a POP3 account and a Gmail (that is not associated to the phone to sync).
Both are set to auto check for new mail every 5 mins. Everything worked great for about a day, but then stopped.
Neither email account is auto checking for mail regardless of the frequency I set it to. 5 mins, 10 mins, hourly, etc.
If I go into the inbox however for one of the email accounts it seems to instantly check for new mail and then all the messages show up.
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance.
Ok, after doing some Googling and coming across a comment on some random site I did a little test.
I have two email accounts configured, and both were set to check every 5 minutes. It seems that the stock email app has some kind of issue initiating more than one email check at a time, so if you have multiple accounts and have them set to the same check frequency, it breaks. I left one account at 5 minutes, set the other to 10 minutes, and they both were able to receive test messages I sent.
How retarded.
Hopefully there will be a fix for this at some point.
Mine is doing this too! however i do have them on different times. i haven't got a notification i got email i have to click email then it loads the messages?
Any way to fix this?
Exactly what mine was doing but putting the frequency check times at different times 5 min & 10 min seemed to have fixed it.
I just sent two more test emails to make sure it wasn't a fluke and will report back if it did indeed fix mine or just happened to work once after I had rebooted the phone.
Hmm,..previous test was a fluke maybe affected by having gotten an SMS around the same time...
Mine is still broken.
I have found that the email app must stay running in the background in order to sync additional mailboxes other than the default gmail account. Make sure any task killers are configured to ignore the email app. Using the Home key to exit mail works for me. YMMV!

I don't have any task killers installed, but I do exit the mail program with the back button.
I'll try starting it up, and then just exiting using the home button to see if that changes the behavior.
I'll report back the results.

i let it run and didn't end it and it still didn't work i just have my email. i just forwarded my aol to gmail and now i dont have have to worry about it.
im having the same issue... This could be a deal breaker for me
Also the damn battery takes 4 hours to fully charge
Ok, leaving the email app running in the background by using the home key to exit it vs the back key made no difference. Still doesn't refresh the inbox until you open the email app up and go into it.
This sucks.
Anyone?

My Battery life sucks also, am trying a few things now to see if anything makes a difference. I removed Fring, did the on/off airplane mode thing, and am running the Juice Plotter to see if anything changes. only 4 to 5 hours of average use that my Hero could handle kills this battery!

How is this relevant to the topic?
i have 2 yahoos and a gmail and they are all updating fine. who is the provider of this email service?
One is a Gmail account the other a POP3 that had no issues over the last 5-6 years on WinMo using Sprint, nor on Android on my old Touch Pro, so that isn't the issue.
After roaming around the net a bit, it seems this a fairly widespread issue with no known fixes yet.
I also have this issue, and its quite frustrating. I have email accts for hotmail, gmail, yahoo, and aol. The only one that gets mail properly is the hotmail account, since it's set up using ActiveSync. The others often don't show as getting new email for about a day or so unless I manually go into each account. Only then will it realize there are new messages.
I too am having the same problem. My default e-mail is a comcast account set up to check every 5 mins. My 2nd acct is a gmail acct set to check every 30 mins. Coming to this phone from a blackberry and my curve would get the e-mails faster than my PC's outlook would.
I rooted my wife's EVO the day she got it bc she hated all the pre-loaded sprint bs. I'm in the same boat with my epic, but i'm hesistant to root it and load an Android 2.2 rom because i want to wait for bugs like this to be fixed.
I'm also getting a pop-up error msg on my epic about 4-5 times per day that says something along the lines of "unable to connect to network", even though i have service on the top "taskbar". The pop-up gives me the option to retry or cancel. Either selection doesn't seem to do anything. I have wi-fi, 4g, gps, and bluetooth turned off for battery life. I don't know if this could correlate to the e-mail syncing problem so I figured i'd toss it out there.
You know, the frustrating thing is I sit here and wait for months for this phone to come out and then they have all these problems with it. My wife's HTC EVO hasn't had a single problem since day 1 and she got it on release day too. The only thing good i can say about this epic compared to the evo (with exception of the slide out keyboard) is the battery life is marginally better on standby.
Subscribing to see what the fix is...
A lot of sites are rumoring there being some type of OTA update near the end of September. Some say it will just e fixes and patches for 2.1 for things exactly like this, others are crossing their fingers that it may be Froyo.
Either way, as long as it fixes this issue I'll be happy...so we'll just have to cross our fingers, wait and see.
lately my e-mail checking has been getting worse, sometimes not even syncing certain items. i went into settings and compared the send receive port #'s to the ones set up in my outlook, and the settings were all wrong as well as the port #'s. I changed them all to match my outlook and now everything is working fine for the moment. time will tell if this was the problem.
I'd be surprised if that fixes it for you.
I know that isn't the issue with mine. All of my manually configured server settings are correct and it still does it.
Crossing my fingers this will be patched/updated at some point, but until then I have MailDroid installed which is getting new mail notifications perfectly. I don't really like MailDroid as much as the integrated client, so whenever MailDroid lets me know I have an email, I just go into the stock email client and manually refresh to read/reply/etc.

Stock email app is not syncing and pushing notifications. Any fix or suggestions?

I'm not receiving any notifications from the stock email app. I have to manually open the app every time I want to check for new emails.
Background data and unrestricted data usage are both turned on. Even if I have the app open, I have to manually refresh to receive new emails.

On a similar note, my daily notifications from the Allo app aren't being received at their scheduled times. Have it set to give me a daily quote at 6 AM PST and I just got it a little while ago (it's 1:30 PM PST now).

Not, if you click on your account menu after created your new email account you see new scheduled option menu, where you can choose for days and busy time your sync period. In default is set on manual mode

The problem is that it's set to push, but I'm not receiving push notifications.

Sorry for the long response, I was saying to switch to Protonmail and not use the default email app.
To the op's, you are not referring to the gmail, are you, are you talking about setup for microsoft or exchange, I think microsoft has messed this up, microsoft released a outlook app, and is forcing people to use it, my current email works with the default, but sometimes is delyed and sending out email doesn't always work, whiles the outlook app, it has many buggs, and always say no internet connection.
I personally use K9 Mail as it works good for IMAP push email servers (also supports POP3). I've always had an issue with stock email apps on Android phones.
Try turning off battery optimization for the stock email app...
That fixed it for me-

I had battery optimization off and also data savings turned off, no dice. Ended up doing a factory reset. Fixed my issue with Allo, too. No problems since.

I had this issue as well when I first setup my phone. I went into the incoming server settings and changed security type from SSL (accept all certificates) to just SSL and haven't had an issue since.
