I use and HTC HD2
I use two HotMail accounts, that's why I created them as 'Other' instead of using 'Windows Live'
Then, I installed version 3.9.10.10.5032 of Swype... and it got my data connection and my email accounts messed up... =(
If I go to my Home Screen, and select the Mail tab, all my email accounts appeared at the right side of the window (as usual), but when selecting any of them and try to use the Inbox menu, it was impossible to get to its messages.
So, I went into the Start Menu, selected the E-Mail application, Selected Menu, Options.. and noticed that my GMail email accounts appeared there... but not the ones from HotMail. I deleted the GMail accounts there (they were messed up anyway) ... so this screen was cleaned up.
But going to my Home Screen, and selecting the Mail tab, still showed the Hotmail accounts, which didn't work... I just can't get rid of them... =(
How can I fix that?
I already fixed my data connection and restored my GMail accounts... but I can't still remove the 'broken' hotmail ones...
Any idea?
Thanks..!
I have four Gmail accounts syncing and set to "As items arrive". But I fail to see any sort of option that let's me get a notification/vibration when items do arrive, like the Outlook one.
Can anyone tell me where this notification setting lives? Right now, if I get Gmail items arriving, I don't know until I unlock the phone and check if numbers have popped up on the tile.
Also, are they syncing by WiFi when the screen is off?
I'm not understanding. Since I use only gmail maybe you are teaching me something...
What does the phone do when it is off when a normal POP message is collected vs how an imap is collected vs how a exchange is collected?
How do those differ from gmail?
My gmail makes a noise, a short vibrate and then the tile indicates the number of unread.
Does outlook, exchange, pop, or imap act differently?

When I unlock my phone, the WiFi status icon animates and "reconnects". Leading me to believe that when my phone is locked, it isn't using WiFi to do any syncing. This worries me.
My Exchange Outlook makes noise, vibrates, and updates the tile. But my Gmail things only seem to be updating the tile - so I was hoping there was a setting somewhere I just overlooked...
You know what, perhaps the secondary accounts dont get the same notifications as the primary or something weird. Maybe commit to a hard reset, setup only the gmail and see how it acts...I know there is goofy stuff with the calendar that is shown as the main one...
Not sure. I think we will get far more interaction int he at&t forums on certain items but it feels unnatural to leave my precious...my precious! XDA
I have one Windows Live, and 3 Gmail accounts linked to my phone. All my accounts give me the same alert sound I chose in the "ringtones & sound" settings of the phone. All are set to receive as sent. Ive tested, and showed coworkers a few times, emails always seem to arrive with in 30 seconds of sending an email to one of my accounts.

My exchange (work), windows live, yahoo, and gmail accounts are all working in terms of getting the notification via sound and a number of unread messages on the tile.
What is weird is that when I check the lock screen, I see icons for any unread exchange, windows live and yahoo e-mail. I never see an icon for unread gmail on the lock screen, I have to swipe up and check the tiles.
Is this what everyone else is seeing? No big deal, but I would like to see an icon for unread gmail on the lock screen. Oh, I have the Samsung Focus.

I have gmail, WLive and Exchange and I get unread count on lock screen for all three of them on my Focus. I have the alert sound turned off so can't be sure about it.

Thanks for the feedback dhan911. I may delete my two gmail accounts from the Focus and set them up again.

I think WP7 only shows your first 3 email accounts on the lock screen, each in a different position along the bottom.
I have 4 email accounts syncing with my phone (in this order): Gmail, School mail (essentially Gmail), Work 1 email (Exchange), and Work 2 email (Exchange). I can see notifications on the lock screen from my Gmail, school mail, and my work 1 email, but not my work 2 email. I do receive notification sound and vibration for all, however.

Thanks bremic9188, I am seeing icons for three e-mail accounts on the lockscreen, but am getting notifications for all five accounts. Sounds like that just may be the deal.
Another thought. If you are setting it to "As Items Arrive", why not try setting it up as an OutLook Exchange account?
First, delete the previous Gmail Account.
Now, setup a new account, select 'Outlook'. Use your Gmail info. When it fails, enter Your Full Email Address as the User name. When it fails again, select 'advanced' and enter 'm.google.com' as the Server, then select 'show all settings'. Now select any prefered settings, such as turning off Contacts and Calendar if prefered so it only grabs email. Probably change the Account name to Gmail, etc. Now hit 'sign in' and you should be set. It will operate exactly like an Exchange Account.
Not syncing any contacts or calendars on any accounts. I usually see the little double-arrow sync icon at the top after I hit the sync button in the settings, but I have not seen that in a long time. I power cycled the droid, I disabled and reenabled the sync settings and made sure all items were checked, I updated the profile and PRL in the system settings. I made a new gmail acct and added new contact and events but neither synced to my droid. I added a hotmail exchange acct and the contacts and calendar is not syncing. The status message is "never synced" but the email is syncing properly. When I go to calendar on the droid I only see the default gmail calendar, not the new gmail calendar or hotmail calendar. Called sprint but their troubleshooting steps basically consisted of power cycling, updating profile, factory reset. Factory reset is out of the question because if I do that I will lose all of my new data since the last sync, which could have been a month ago. I could really use some help. Does anyone have ideas? Thanks.

Hello, since I've updated to Nougat earlier this week I stopped getting email notifications from my yahoo emails on the Gmail app. I still get notifications on my actual Gmail email account though. When I open the app that's when I suddenly get my yahoo emails. Anybody with the same problem or solution to this problem?

Either the account is no longer added or the notifications for it are turned off. Open the Gmail app and pull out the drawer from the left edge. Select 'Settings' at the bottom of the drawer list.
If you see your Yahoo! account in the list with your gmail account, tap it and make sure 'Notifications' is ticked. The settings for which ringtone would be used is directly below the aforementioned option.
If you do not see your Yahoo! account, tap 'Add account' and follow the prompts to re-add your Yahoo! account.
Feel free to ask for further assistance. Take care.
P.S.
Just saw that you are getting the emails in the app.
I would check your sync settings. Settings->Accounts. Make sure everything is set to sync up. You could also try removing and re-adding the account for the fun of it. I will do some research on this and try to duplicate the problem on my end.
Sync settings are as they should be and notifications is checked. I'll maybe try to reset the Gmail app.
