Problems checking my gmail account

Well ive pretty much given up on getting my gmail pushed to my 8125 since nothing has seemed to work so i was just going to go back to using outlook to check my mail every 5 minutes. This used to work when i first set it up but i tried it today and whenever i hit send/receive it never brought up any messages even though i just sent it from my yahoo account. I then deleted the gmail account off of the phone and re-set it up. I sent a test message from my yahoo account, hit send/receive, and it showed up. I then sent a test message from my comcast account and it showed up also, one problem though....the first message from my yahoo account dissapeared. I thought it was strange so i hit send/receive again and the second message i sent to myself from comcast also dissapeared. Im not deleting the messages off of the servers or anything, they just dissapear whenever i hit send/receive. Im getting really fed up with trying to set up my email account and im very tempted to just go back to my treo....
I know the feeling...
I have a T-mobile MDA and I have the same problem with gmail. When I first set it up I had 200+ emails then everytime I did a send/receive I would loose some until finally I lost all of them. I tried downloading straight from gmail and the same thing happened. Now I can't get anything when I send/Receive. According to T-mobile this is a known issue with gmail...they said that gmail is still a beta setup and their pop settings don't always work. I have since just had my gmail forwarded and it seems to work..atleast I know that it is there
Well I don't know if this exactly a fix....but I use gmail as my main account and I just have my gmail forwarded to an exchange account I have. I mean...I do have to prune two accounts but, as for now, its the only soloution I have.

gmail sync with 2.2 and google apps accounts

SO,
Just wondering... I was just looking on an EVO forum to see if anyone had started getting their 2.2 roll out and noticed a thread titled:
Gmail still not syncing reliably on EVO...
Post #4 suggests that gtalk triggers gmail syncing. Now I use a true gmail account so checkout etc... all work on my phone, but my primary email is a google apps account (mydomain.com). I have my primary gmail account set to not actually sync anything, and my apps account syncing all three options.
The whole Froyo single sign on/ attaching gtalk/gapps to the first gmail account and not allowing my apps account to log into talk seems like a valid reason that would cause my non (pure) gmail account to be pushing correctly.
Does this make sense, is there any validity to it?

edit: So, some testing. I disabled forwarding (in gmail web) for my [email protected] account and ENABLED gmail sync on that account.
Sending email to that account is pushing to my phone just fine. with or without gtalk signed in, and it's even working after I killed the gtalk app via systempanel.
I am NOT however getting pushed email to my secondary account (google apps) [email protected] google apps account.
Something weird is going on.
I'm surprised there hasn't been more on this.
I have 2 separate gmail accounts on my phone and it seems that I only get updates for emails that get sent to the primary gmail account (the first account that was used to set up the phone initally). Any mail that gets sent to the second account doesn't get updated until after I hit the 'Sync Now' button in the menu.
I just had a friend with an EVO on stock 2.1 update 1 test this. He also uses google apps, and actually only had his gmail setup on his phone.
He added his apps account, and set gmail to sync.
I sent him a test message and he got it right away. I know that my phone also worked correctly before going to 2.2. Now, in 2.1 for ME I used gtalk with my google apps ID, where as my friend has his setup with his gmail.com account (the way I'm forced to do in 2.2 right now).
Ok right now at 10:20pm my gmail is pushing instantly (at least for new mail) noticing that if I read the mail on the phone/PC the update is not making it back to the other very quickly. I read/deleted the test message about 3 minutes ago, and the phone still believes there's a new message there.
At first I thought it was because I am hom and on WIFI, however I disconnected, and sent another test. It's working the same on 3G.
I seriously noticed this tonight as I was sending myself a link to the how-to downgrade HBOOT so I could get rid of the OTA radio updat and go back to 2.1... hanging on a bit longer now I guess
Edit: Literally, as soon as I hit the post button, the icon disappeared on my phone so its slow but working

Gmail Sync

Anyone having problems with gmail i check my emails in Gmail app in phone however it marks them as read but on gmail.com shows them as unread and i still get a count on gmail app. anyone else having an issue with their gmail app
about an hour ago i was on gmail (website) from my comp and a notification came up with a link that said google was having technical probs with gmail and working to get them fixed....
My incredible is rooted and running CM7 however the guy that I work with has a stock incredible and his gmail is not syncing at all. You have to refresh it to get emails. This only starting happening once he got the new update. Before that gmail was working great. I have double checked all the setting for gmail and his account and everything is set correctly. I am starting to think that it has to do with the update more than on gmail's side.

Gmail as live account issue with phone set up

So when I first booted up my 920 I was asked to sign in to live using the email I log into xbox with (i use gmail) so I did and everything showed up and work except when I try and DL something from the market place, it keeps saying it needs email/acct verification and to check my gmail. I have checked every nook and cranny looking for an email in my gmail and see nothing?
any thoughts?
thanks
It keeps saying my hotmail pw is incorrect if I go into settings--accounts.....its obviously not a hotmail account, but it is the account I use to sign into xbox live
You now have a Microsoft-Account that is using a GMail-Address for identification. You could try going to www.outlook.com and log in with your Microsoft Account (Gmail-Address + Password) there. I can't imagine the verification mail could have ended up there but it's the only thing I can think of right now.

Email sync / reoccurring email issue?

Hi guys, I have a strange problem with the standard email app on the s6e+.
I have my .live.co.uk (hotmail) account on my phone, it auto discovers the account info, and all works ok, sends and receives fine, except when I delete an email, it will then reappear as a new email 5 mins later. So if I delete 5 emails, after a short amount of time, I will have the same 5 new emails again that I have already deleted!
I've had a bit of a search on here and can't see anything that relates to my issue.
I've deleted the account and cleared the info from the email app so I've definitely cleared everything and started again.
I cba defaulting the whole phone when I might not work anyway
I have another email account from my domain and that works 100%, so must be Hotmail, but I've never seen any of my android phones do this!
Has anyone come across this before??
Cheers
Dave
