WM6 Challenge

I really need some help here.
I have a WM6 Moto Q9m. My challenge is with email, and notifications. First of all, I am using ActiveSync just fine with Exchange 2003 (soon to be 2007 ). I have configured a second email account for POP3 to a mailbox that I need to monitor 24x7. Here is what I can not figure out:
1. On the home screen (default vzw profile) I have the email shortcuts for each account to include "email (outlook)" SMS, MMS, and VMail. I do not have, nor can figure out how to get a shortcut for my POP3 mailbox. When I get a new email to my pop3 inbox, I get an audio notification, but I can not see at a glance how many items are unread in that pop3 mailbox like I can in the "Email" shortcut. In WM5, the pop3 mailbox would show on the home screen in addition to the default outlook mailobx.
2. I would really like to change the audio notification to be different for the pop3 mailbox, than the default outlook mailbox. As I am monitoring the pop3 mailbox 24x7, I would like to have a "pager" sound to differentiate the pop3 email notification from the default email notification.
I know there is someone that can shed some light here. I have searched the registry but can not figure these out! Thank You!

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.

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!

Messaging account selector screen

On the screen that has the list of messaging accounts you can select from, under the Outlook email selection there is this random letter "d". Under text messaging there's nothing and under my windows live account it has my hotmail e-mail address. I'd like to either remove or edit that "d" to my outlook email address or just have nothing there. I don't even know how it got there in the first place. I looked through the registry and couldn't find anything tied to it. I really don't want to hard reset it either. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!

Online Address Book in WM6.1

Anyone use the online address book feature of the messaging program? I want my contacts from my different email sources. I could type them into outlook but would prefer something more automatic. Open up a messaging account like Gmail then choose menu - tools - options. Then the 3rd tab is address. Try to add an address book. Thanks
I had seen some tool, can't remember name!
It's allow to synchronize your contacts with internet!
So you can easy recover all your data, even if you PC will be formated

I think I am asking the question wrong. What I was hoping to do was to use my contacts I have on gmail or yahoo. When I type an email on my phone the only contacts I can pull up are the ones in my contacts under outlook.
Now I could copy the email accounts but the nice feature of Yahoo and Gmail (and many other email accounts) is that they will automatically add new addresses.
Now back to my original question. On our phone is a place to put a server address for an online address book. Anyone use this feature to tap into either yahoo or gmail address book?
Thanks

K9 Mail email suggestion feature doesn't work

Hi,
I am currently using the latest K9 mail app and when I want to compose a message, I cannot seem to "choose" my recipient in the To field. I do not have this problem in the Gmail app, like when I type the letter A, there will be a drop down menu which suggests my contacts' email addresses (those starting with A).
Does anyone know how to fix this? The reason why I am not using Gmail is because it doesn't seem to push as fast as K9 and I also use a non-gmail university email address (so I use K9 to push emails from both accounts.
