Email app questions - Epic 4G General

Is it me, or does the email app not pick up all of the emails that are actually in my inbox? I went to check my email through the application because I had recently registered to a new forum.. I didnt see the email in my inbox on the email app on my epic, so I went on the computer and checked my email manually through yahoo. It showed the email in my inbox on the computer through yahoo, but I then refreshed the email app on my phone and the email still didnt show up. Does anyone else have this problem, is it the app? Also is it possible to have the email app recieve the email through push, instead of searching for new mail every so couple of minutes (or however long I set it to)?
Thank you!

Gmail will push. I normally get notification on my phone before my pc.

activesync inbox to outlook

If i check my emails on my fone, how can i then ensure that outlook then updates while syncing from the fone?
thnx
activesync should update your normal outlook unless you delete the mails from your xda
though personaly i set my xda to leave the mails on the server so i can still get to them without using activesync
I have my emails from my pc in the ActiveSync folder on my xda2. If i delete an email in this folder when i sync next it puts this email back on the phone.
How do i select to leave the message on the server from the xda?
thanks
to tell you the truth then i dont know how to turn it off it's not something i choose it just does it or in this case it just dont do it
as in delete the mails from the server
about moving a mail from the pop3 mail box to the activesync hhmmm now thats a good question not sure right now
i just had a play around and discovered that the message is automatically left on the server, which is good and bad, since ive got an email address just for my xda (not that its much point...just got loads of pop3 accounts to use up and couldnt resist)
well most mail box's got a www interface aswell as a pop3 one
so if your xda mail addy also got a www interface then you could use that to empty the mail box
also does it download the same mails all over if you connect again ?
and does it also do it if the mail is deleted ?
ok now im confused.
1)
Sent email to address
Recieved email on xda
Download full email body
Deleted email on xda
Checked email on xda...didnt recieve again
Checked email in outlook didnt recieve email
2)
Sent email to address
Recieved email on xda
Didnt download full body
Didnt delete email on xda
Checked email in outlook, recieved the email
Check email on xda, xda removed the email in the inbox
3)
Sent email to address
Recieved email on xda
Downloaded full email body
Didnt delete email on xda
Checked email in outlook, recieve email
Email deleted on xda when send/recieve done again
4)
Sent email to address
Recieved email on xda
Download full email body
moved email to another folder (not inbox)
check email in outlook, recieved email
Email remained in ther other folder when sebd/recieve redone
note, activesync was sync while i was testing.
The only way it seems, to keep an email on the phone after youve downloaded it in outlook (if this email is not your synched address) is to copy that email to another folder.
Maybe a thirdparty email app would be better than the built in program. Could be a project for me to do, tho im sure theres plenty out there

Gmail shows "Sent" emails in the "Inbox" folder

HTC 6800 (bell) using the builtin email app.
Every time i use Gmail to send out a email i see that same email in the "inbox" folder after. Whats even more annoying is i get notifications for this since the email i sent appears in my INBOX folder. When i check my "Sent" folder, its empty - even though ive sent 100's of emails from my device.
Anyone experiencing this? Anyone know what may be the cause of it?
I also have Lotus Notes emails being retrieved by my phone and i don't not experience this behavior with that account.

I was having the exact same problem, thanks for the solution.
Atropo - worked. thanks for the solution.
thanks!
ETA: looks like a spoke too soon, now it doesnt recieve any mail at all, and it deleted all the messeges that were already stored on the phone
suggestions?
I still have the same problem of sent mail being in the inbox as new mail.
Deep breath everyone...
You need the "recent:" in your login name or you won't get any emails at all. Seeing the sent messages in the Inbox is just a quirk of Gmail. Get use to it.
Any solution to this issue yet?
It would be nice to fix, but doubt it will happen.
I get a copy of the message I sent in my inbox on my 6800 even if I compose and send the message from the web on my Mac or from Entourage on the same Mac.
Like TC1 said, it's a GMail quirk...
Here's what I do to avoid loosing new messages and to NOT see your own sent items:
Setup a second GMail account, with any name you desire (no one will ever see it)
For instance:
[email protected]
&
[email protected]
Foward ALL mail from [email protected] > [email protected].
Setup your PPC to only check [email protected], but to only SEND mail using the login/password for [email protected].
And of course, use "recent:" before the username of the [email protected] account.
This works wonders. I've actually got about 7 e-mail accounts fowarding to my single mobile account. Granted, with this method you're always sending from just one account, but in the event you only have one and want Gmail to funciton properly, I find this is the best solution.
Hope it helps!

Gmail Imap POP3 Sent Box ? ? Help

This is what I"m Interested in. When I send emails from my Tilt, I want them to save to my Sent box, Just Like a regular txt message. I have Mail2web email but they dont provide this feature for the free Account. I love mail2web but the no sent emails in the box is my only Gripe. Now to remedy this I tried setting up Gmail, But for some reason when I set up Gmail using Pop3 any outgoing mail I send will appear back in mt Inbox as Well as my sent Box( This is Very annoying). If I set up Gmail using Imap, nothing will get saved in the Sent Box....
Any Ideas or can anyone help me with this Bug in Gmail or a better way to set this up ?
As of yet I havent been able to fix this.
In outlook 2003+ on windows you can specify IMAP folders but as of yet on Winmo I havent been able to do this.
Ok I thought I was the only Idoit not getting this to Work ! It's annoying and I've been working on it for about a week.... I"m Puzzeled !
even the online version of gmail sends stuff back to your inbox... makes it like threaded messages.

I Dont mean Including the Orginal txt in the Email. I mean it will resend me my out-going Email As a New email in my Inbox ?
It Does this online as Well from an actually Computer ? I"ve never experienced this ?
Has anyone ever found a solution to this ?
sending is not handled by pop3 or imap both those protocols are only for recieving
both of them use smtp for sending mails
i'm using IMAP for my gmail access and the default is to not sync the sent folder, anything i send only resides on gmail itself, i don't get it showing in my inbox as well. Haven't tried setting sent to sync as well, i don't need to see what i have sent.
mail2web is aggrivating me, any other FREE accounts out there? It wont sync 2 save my life,...
OK, just gone into the folder management side of my PPC's gmail account and flaged Sent items for sync as well as my Inbox and hey presto they have all appeared. Had to make sure the folder at the top was checked and not the obvious sent folder but its synching my sent items.
To clarify my PPC gmail folder list looks like this:
Gmail
[Google Mail]​All Mail
Bin
Drafts
Sent Mail
Spam
Starred​
and below this i have folders for any categories i have created as well as the default Inbox. Checking the top Sent Itmes has synched it with gmail.

[Q] Help with Gmail Application

Hello.
I am using the built in Gmail application and have a problem and a request:
1) When I'm viewing an email in my PC in Gmail site, the app syncs fine and it shows the email as read. Although, when I'm reading an email with a 3rd party app called "Sparrow" which is running by IMAP on my PC then the Gmail app in my device doesn't get updated until a new message arrives, but the Gmail website does update immediately. Can I do something to make the app updated even if I read the email with Sparrow?
2) Is there anyway to mark email as read from the notification bar?
Thank you very much!
Would appreciate some help

The Gmail app uses push so it syncs the phone app and account as soon as you do anything. Other apps using IMAP have to sync back to the server for the changes to become apparent. This is why I use the Gmail app for my Gmail and the stock app for POP3/IMAP email
But what's weird is that the Gmail website does sync with the IMAP app and the Gmail Android app doesn't - until a new message arrive, then it "refreshes" itself and mark the email I read as read.
Can't really offer a suggestions as the Gmail app does what I want it to!
I think it's all fixed, I've updated the IMAP app on my Mac.
Anyway, what about the "mark as read" when I read an email from the notification bar? Any tweak for that?
The new Gmail app has the option to Archive (which also marks it read) but don't know if that'll be of any use. It's fine for me as I can archive an email on my phone and Outlook 2013 still downloads it as a new email as it's the first time an email clients has downloaded it
So when you archive an email in your phone, Outlook just looks at it as a read email?
No, it downloads it as a new email cause I use POP3 in Outlook not IMAP

Gmail app

Seems all of a sudden, any email I get to gmail has a small issue:
I get the email alert on the app. Get the email and read. Archive some of them.
Go online to email and all the emails are sitting in the inbox as unread? It never used to do this. Any ideas what is going on?
