Has anyone noticed a problem with the address book and contacts that only have a company title? The address book will pull the first and last name from some other contact and fill it into the nameless contact (company title only).
I've tried manually fixing the second company name only contact by deleting the first and last name fields, but the address book just fills it back in again.
It's quite annoying.

Hello,
I seem to be having a problem with the built in email client on my XDA Exec. Every so often the built in Outlook Mail Client seems to "loose" my POP 3 account. However when I try to add it back in it tells me that:
"That name is already assigned to another account. Enter a unique name and try again"
Now I could keep adding it back in with a different name each time but that is a pants solution. Any thoughts as to how I can permanently fix this issue?
I have trawled through the registry but cannot find within it the name I used when I created the POP3 account.
[I have also noticed that it seems to loose the registration information for SunnySoft Back up as well!]
Many thanks
Change name POP3 in account configuration step 1 or 2 to another like mail1, mail 2. You have to use different names for settings

if only it was that simple. The original entry is no longer visible! So I cannot change it. And I cannot see it in the registry to delete it either. Any idea where does Pocket Outlook store its config information?
No i don't know

Did you ever see "No GSM" when soft reset? Then get your machine replaced. Check my postings.
Hi All!
Strange thing... I was playing with my Prophet, and have created an POP3 email account, named, for example "mail.com", and later I have deleted it.
Now, if I am creating a new account I CAN NOT name it "mail.com", I got error message, describing that "That name is alredy assigned to another account. Enter a unique name and try again"
I have it deleted, sure, I can't see it in the list, but the name survived somewhere inside and I can't reuse it for a new account...
Any ideas?
Hello fellow users
Is there something like email to "Distribution List" or "Category" that I've assigned a whole bunch of Contacts to??
I have been using my T-Mobile MDA VARIO for several months now but still can't workout if there is a way to simply email using a POP3 email account to more than one recipient.

thanks for your wise words,

Interesting...I didn't realize the feature was missing until you pointed it out.
Here's a temporary workaround (don't have much time to sit and search for a freeware addon):
1. Create a new contact named as the group name you'd like to use (say "Development Team")
2. Enter all the e-mail addresses for your distribution list within the "e-mail" tag of this new contact, placing a semicolon ( ; ) between all addresses.
3. When you go to create a new email, enter the group name you just created and the email field should automatically fill with all the addressees (I tried with two, there may be a limitation)
glhs509,
Thanks for the TIP.
I've found there is a limit at 247 characters which works out at 6 - 7 email address' for me so not much scope for large distributions.
For more than 247 characters I've ...
1) on my PC created a temporary email to the distribution list
2) Expanded the name to show all email address
3) Copied into notes section of a new contact.
4) on my PPC I can sink the new contact and it just takes a copy and paste of the contact notes into a new email 'To' box.
Not great but a lot better than adding one at a time. So thanks
I would really like to sync my contacts with the distributions in outlook on my PC so if anyone knows how to, please fill us in
I just got Galaxy S, and have one situation that bugs me a lot. I have all my contacts on Exchange account, so I set it up, and it synced it all, without any problems. But, I would like my Exchange contacts to be linked with their facebook pictures.
So, when I add FB account, it works fine with those people for which name matches in Exchange and FB. But for those that I listed with some short names (close friends, family) it didn't auto match (of course, didn't know how) so I manually linked them. When I link them, it changes their name, from Exchange name (nickname) to FB (full name), and it bugs me because I would like to leave the short names I added.
This bugs me even more because only those people that I input with a nickname, or just first name or some short name are those that are close to me. Any solution to this?
I tried both to first select their FB and link with Exchange, and vice versa, and it always displays full name taken from FB
Thanks in advance
Ok, I think I have the answer. I was in the same situation as you up until a few minutes ago when I was messing. Go to the contact that had the short name but now has their full name due to you linking them with their facebook account, open up the contacts details, click menu, click mark as default and there you will be able to set the default name of the contact as well as other defaults. Hope this has helped.
Thanks a lot!
My email retains the email addresses of ALL of the emails that I've sent or received. This includes those not in my contact list. When I start a new email they appear whenever I type the first letter in the "To" or "cc" fields. How can I delete these? Does anyone know the name of the file where they are stored? Thanks.
Fixed it.
I still haven't found where it's pulling the email address history from, but it can be turned of with the following registry edit.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Inbox\RecipientAutocomplete]
"MaxSuggestions"=dword:0
Mine was set to 4. After changing it to 0, presto-chango! No more email address autocomplete frustration.
