[Q] "The email address is not valid" in HTC Mail app - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
The HTC Mail app on the MT4G won't let me send mail to an address like 'username+4444 at mail.com'. When I try to send the mail it fails immediately and says "The email address is not valid." Of course it is valid as I send mail to it all the time.
I can send to other addresses that don't include a '+' without any problems.
Anyone else run into this? Can I open a bug w/ HTC? Any recommendations for less buggy 3rd party email app?
Thanks,
Colin
PS: The board won't let me put an actual "at sign" in the email address above since I'm a noob.

Push email - SMS to trigger send/receive?

I've been trying to get push email on my PDA. I was trying Exchange Server and AUTD. For those of you who don't know, the way this works is that when new email is received the server sends an SMS to your mobile which causes it to initiate a server activesync.
This is not an SMS which you see - it's a service SMS that the PDA acts upon.
The SMS that was being sent to my phone was:
//SCKL040A AwFqAAADxgADBQHDEMGPINNIoHX2gEOfBBnWxQEB
I wonder if there is a similar SMS content which would cause the phone to initiate a send/receive on on ordinary email account.
Does anybody know anything about how these SMS messages work?
Have u found anything, Baldboy? I got the same idea, and posted it to the number of forums, but no reply - apparently, nobody is interested, however it seems to be the cheapest and simplest way to organize blackberry-free pushmail without any modifications to the server...

Read MSDN. Everything is perfectly working.
Just enter email address of SMS<->email gateway for your phone when asked, setup ActiveSync to sync email with exchange server, and set device to sync "when items arrive".
Of cause this would work only with exchange server. I have exchange 2003 SP1 and WM5 device.

Email issues

This may not be the correct place for THIS question but I will ask anyway...
I would like to view email that has HTML code embedded.. For example I receive email from www.comics.com They send me the funny's everyday.. I can not see this because of some sort of limitation on the WM5 email client PRE installed.
Any idea's ? Any third party email clients ???
Also.. Anyone have a IMAP email account ?? I can not view any email in the HOME folder (inbox) I can only see email in the SUB folders.

email

I was able to send emails a few days ago and now i cant? when i hook up to active sync it sends???
am i missing a setting somewhere? I ahv elooked and matched up my phone with my pc outlook
I just deleted my account and then went through the automatic setup thing to set it up again and I get the same message "The outgoing mail server cannot send or recieve messages at theis time. try again later."
maybe your mail server is down? who are you using? is it a free service like gmail or a personal web hosting solution?
I use charter and when theyre down its only for a minute, maybe i should use Gmail?
In my settings on the phone....should they match EXACTLY as they are in my outlook on my pc?
Is there anyone using Charter pop3 email with their mogul that can help me with this prob?

setting email send address.

Hi,
Firstly i appolagise if this has been answered else where, i have looked and it may not be in the right place but does come under software i guess, not the easiest of things to word.
Basically i use my diamond to connect to my exchange server which hosts my personal mail, i have a forwarder which forwards all my mail to the exchange, so i can easily pick up my work mail from my person exchange.
This is where my problem begins when i reply to a email or send it uses my exchange mail box.
I have added the work mail box to my phone with a rogue pop3 for source email so i am not pulling the same email from 2 sources, and specified smtp correctly and used the right username\pass.
I hoped by doing this when i send an email or replied it would ask me which account to send from however it uses which ever account you are in at the time of creating the mail.
I don't know if anyone else has achieved this or even tried anything similar.
Any suggestions welcomed.
thanks in advance

Exchange email issue

Hi all,
Just thought id post this in hoping someone might of had the same problem and might be able to resolve this.
My Boss has just got a htc hero and has had his corporate email setup on the device via exchange.
Now he has problems when forwarding emails. He basically sends mail but the recepient receives his email as an attachment (.eml file)
It doesnt appear to happen on internal mail. Is there any settings to look out for on the hero itself? Plenty of others here have there work email setup fine on various devices and no one else has this problem.
