I had the same issue with my Polaris. I can't find the resource that told me how to fix it, so I'll just tell you:
1) when creating the new account, DO NOT enter your gmail address in the first page of the wizard; instead type something like [email protected] so that the wizard doesn't auto setup for gmail.
2) point your browser to this gmail help page and use the information from the Standard Instructions section.
3) two VERY IMPORTANT things to remember!! I learned them the hard way
a) be SURE to disable IMAP and enable POP. The link to do this is in Step 1 of the Standard Instructions. Before enabling POP, though, if it says POP is already enabled, DISABLE IT FIRST, then click [Save Changes] then go back to the page and THEN enable POP and [Save Changes].
b) remember to ENABLE SSL for both the incoming and outgoing mail servers. you have to use the port numbers provided, but there's no place to enter them, so enter them like this in the server name fields:
POP3 server name: pop.gmail.com:995
SMTP server name: smtp.gmail.com:465 -or- smtp.gmail.com:587
4) after the wizard is finished and your new account is created, go back and edit the account and enter your correct gmail email address, and it will allow you to change it without goofing things up.
Hope this helps! I have to do this every time I change ROM's, which seems to be every few weeks these days, and the above instructions work for me.
Cheers!! --Jesse
Should THIS INSTRUCTION not be the one for setting up an imap google account on WM6?
I didnt try it myself til now cos my HD will only arrive tomorrow morning. So no garantee if it will work or not. Only looked up in the Gmail Help Section for Settings for a WM6 Client over imap.
Give me some feedback if I am wrong.

You can go to the Gmail help page and get all the settings to set up a pop account also. I used pop for years but now that I've tried IMAP, I'll never go back because to me it is so much better. I can see all of my emails sent and received on all of my computers, no more manual syncing. Anyway I guess you have your reasons for preferring pop over imap. Good luck.

Never knew it worked that way. I prefer POP because it just seems to take way too long to check for new IMAP mail because it has to load in all the folders, then load in all the headers, then load any new messages. I thought IMAP was supposed to be the new better way, but for me it just seems to take much longer, and I only use gmail on my mobile and from web browsers. I'm open to suggestion, though, especially if I'm missing something that would benefit me

You're right that it does take longer to get imap mail on a PPC than pop, but the difference is only 1 or 2 seconds.
Benefit example: I am at home on my laptop and send out several emails with information that I found on the web etc. I then go out and have my phone with me, I forget something that needs to be added to the already sent emails. Gmail IMAP allows me to look in my sent folder and reference the emails. Gmail also will fetch emails from other accounts so that you have them all in one place. You can even reply to emails from other accounts and have them sent out showing that they came from the original account. I promise I don't work for Google I just like my IMAP email.

That does sound handy! I appreciate you taking the time to answer. As for gmail performing 'proxy' services for your other email accounts, that sounds way too cool. I'm going to look into that... Thanks again.. Jesse
Just a note on Gmail Imap: In the U.S. Imap version only for the moment you can activate Advanced Imap Controls in Labs, and then choose the Imap folders you want to see under Settings. And in Forwarding and POP/Imap you can configure to acutally immediately delete messages, not flag them for deletion. In order to see and test the Labs offerings you can change your default language to English, and revert back if you like.
The X1 always deletes the mails saved on the device if they arent stored on the server anymore after checking for new mails. Is there a way to keep mails that are no longer on the pop3 server?
If you are using POP3, the emails you downloaded to your device should stay there regardless of removal on the POP3 server. The only reason that would explain this behavior is that you are using IMAP and not POP3.
I'm using pop3 and the mails disappear.

That's not how POP3 works. You are describing IMAP server behaviour.

in options you have to select "don't delete mail from server" or "keep mail on server" I don't remember exactly but there in an option to do it, look around in advanced account settings
Well doenst really matter that its not supposed to work this way.
How do i fix it? Obvioulsy a bug, is it working with your phone?

Yes i have that option selected...the X1 is not deleting it from the server...its deleting it from the X1, after the mail is deleted from the server by my PC, on the next "send / reveicve" operation.
so check "don't delete message if deleted form server"... it's in advanced options too
Where would that option be? On the same page as the "dont delete from server option"? If yes i dont have that. (german version of windows mobile and Xperia) Maybe there is a direct registry setting if i cant get it through the options?
The problem you're having is most likely to do with retention. Eg "delete messages after 7 days". Use POP3 but also check your retention settings.
And where would i find this setting? I only find the option for downloaing Mails from today, 3 - 30 days old or all. But this hast nohting to do with deleting them once theyre gone on the pop3 server.
And thoose messeages dont vanish on their own...they get deleted after i check for new mails (its set up for manually doing that) and the experia notes that the mails is not on the pop3 server anymore.
So a "don't delete message if deleted form server" would be the right thing..just that i dont have that in my settings.

If the email is deleted/retrieved from the server by YOUR PC, the email is gone by the time you check for new email on your PHONE.
What you need to do is select the option to "KEEP MAIL ON SERVER" in your PC email program.
Either way, I don't think it's a good practice to POP your email from 2 different places (PC and phone in your case).
Of course its gone, but i dont download the mail AFTER its deleted by the PC...its allready on the X1 and it deletes it AFTERWARDS.
In fact my PC is set up to leave Mails in POP3 for 3 days..then they get deleted...and the X1 is set to dont delete any mails at all. But it does delete allready downloaded mails as soons as it finds out theyre not on the pop3 server anymore.
So back to the solution of this problem please?
The only way I found to keep messages on the phone is to delete them from inbox to the deleted items folder, they stay there till you delete them properly.
Im on btinternet and I dont like the idea of messages staying on the server so havnt enabled it.
What is the point of keeping messages on the server, can they be downloaded again?
I cant find an advanced explanation of how the phone interacts with the mail services so I just keep mail I need in the deleted folder in the phone, I even created a new folder in the phone called store to put emails in for keeps but they dissapeared from there as well !!
If you have important information in a mail, copy and paste the text to word or notepad just to be safe.
According to guap there should be a "don't delete message if deleted from server"-option but i cant find it. I cant believe that windows mobile mail software would be more stupid that a simple java email client i used the last to years before the experia.
sorry for delay
go in your inbox -> menu ->tools -> options -> message -> warn when delete message from list
this way you can say "no" and keep your message. Quite annoyng but it worked for me on my touch. Now I don't care about it
Anyway, if you are interested in a serious client I suggest to swap to something better then pocket outlook
I have this checked...but always clicking yes on every mail check to keep my mails from getting deleted would be to annyoing even if it would work.
So what serious alternatives are there? And are they fully integrated into the OS?
nurps, have you doubled checked the settings to ensure you aren't using IMAP. The wizard will try to use IMAP by default, which by the sounds of things is exactly whats going on.
Its pop3. 100% sure.
I have set up the same account with pop3 and imap, the phone still behaves the same, deleting messages that have been downloaded to and deleted from pc.
I think this is stupid behavior. There should be an option to keep some email on the phone and not on the pc.
Edit; Put it this way I have 2 pcs with outlook express on, I can check mail with each one and they download mail individually but they dont clear the other pc of mail do they ! (mmm.. ? maybe thats wrong eh ..).
I like to choose what to delete from a particular machine and what to keep on a machine.
Can someone please give me some simple instructions on how to set up googlemail push. I have googlemail set up and email frequency box is set at 5 minutes, it gives no option for push. I have not found the option to sync contacts etc. Maybe I am having another senior moment!! Thank you.
Check out the beta section on google sync website -That should give you the info you need. I have not got it to work yet though.

if you create an new email account, don't select the gmail option. You need to create an active sync (exchange) connection... then you have push mail. instructions are indeed on the google sync beta page....
Many thanks, I will head over there now
in activesync app, type your gmail email and password, server is m.google.com ., go thru options for cal, contacts, and email, frequency, and peak times.

Now got the phone to push, new problem is that the notification sound does not work with it at present, could this have anything to do with still having the ordinary googlemail on the phone?? Do I need to remove it????
Getting in a mess here I deleted the original googlemail, now I have none.

dont think so. I prefer using activesync for google contacts and calendar, and setting up gmail but without push in the email inbox. You should get email noises, no matter if both are there. Go to home screen, settings tab, menu, all settings, sounds and notifications, tab sounds, scroll to new email and check options are ticked as needed.
I can't get the push to work despite having hard reset the phone a couple of times. ( now got to get my music and photo's back on)
Contacts not so bad as they will sync with myphone.
I think I am going to have to go back to normal google syncing every 5 minutes. unless someone has another solution.
Thanks for your help
it may be your network not allowing it. make sure proxy is off in connections (settings, all settings, connections, connections, manage , edit, proxy)

Your provider will need to support this.

This is what worked for me after lots of attempts.
I deleted the original IMAP googlemail account
Iwent to activesync
Put in my googlemail address ie [email protected]
Password xxxxxxx ignore tha fact that it then adds extra digits.
Save password
leave domain name blank
username will come up as santa, this needs changing to [email protected]
edit server will come up and this is m.google.com
Choose the data you want to sync
Choose schedule as items arrive
The forst sync I had to press send and receive thereafter it worked.
What was confusing me before was the fact that I had the phone charging in the computer as I set up, it would not sync until I unplugged it. After unplugging it only pushed new mail not the mail already on the server.
I hope this makes some sense I am very new to this.
Ok.. Looks easy. Did you set anything in your gmail account on the server?
Also. I'm not sure if thats your true e-mail address, but if so, and if you do not like spam, you better remove it from your post!
Lot's of spam bots WILL get your e-mail address, and use it for sending spam to you!
Ok I managed to get it working after a bit, but syncing still seems slow. Also when I send a message from the phone it shows up in my mail client inbox anyway to stop this happening.

Did not set anything on server.
did anybody try to send a mail with some attachment to your gmail push account? When i get the mail on my device, i can see the attachment, however, i cannot open it or save it. When i click on the attachment it says downloading... but still cannot open or save it? does it work for you guys?
I have searched for email problems but found none that describe my problem.
The problem is this.
1. Emails that have been read, but not deleted are removed from my HD2.
2. I get a notification that an email has been delivered. If i don't read that email, pick up my phone and so on. I can return to my phone knowing that i should have a message to read and find none.
I believe that what may be happening is that my emails are getting cleared down on every send/receive schedule.
Can anyone assist?
I am not saving messages to the SIM card currently.
I had that problem.
I guess that messages are deleted from hd2 when they are deleted from mail server
In other words, when you download them with computer for example, where you probably set it to: delete messages from server after they are downloaded, they are deleted from hd2 after next send,receive...
So I guess that these emails you would like to read them on your hd2 are deleted because in the mean time you or some software deleted them from email server
I find this happens if I empty the deleted items folder in Outlook on the Windows PC to which my HD2 is synched.
Disappearing email
On HTC Touch HD, when I wanted to save an email, I have deleted it. In that way it stayed preserved in the "deleted items" folder.
However, on HD2 email is disappearing from that folder also, after it has been deleted on the server.
Is there any way to save e-mails permanently on HD2? Except moving it to the "drafts" folder...

find the email options screen that lets you set the storage location, and on that page is the option to control when and how to empty the deleted items which by default is set to automatic on connect disconnect.

What I do (just for testing purposes):
1- I'm at home and using Outlook 2003, so from one email account of mine I send a short email to THE email account which is also set up in my HD2.
2- Once I see the email has been delivered, I force my HD2 to refresh and I receive the email.
3- Now I refresh Send/Receive in my Outlook. Fine, I receive the message too.
4- Finally, I refresh again (Send/Receive) in my HD2...
5- The email I had on my HD2 screen, is gone. If I go to my InBox folder, there's nothing there.
What's wrong? Although I know the server deletes the messages, why can't my HD2 keep a message that had already been received?
Cheers,

thats because when you check the account from the mobile, it leaves a copy of the email on the server, and creates a copy in your phones inbox. When you check from Outlook on the pc, it physically downloads the email, thus removing it from the server, so when you check again from the phone, the inbox is empty.
You can alter outlook to not remove messages, but you end up with all your mail stored on your pop server, and the isp might not like it if it grows too large.

Hi there samsamuel. Thanks for your answer.
I understand this behaviour, but what I can't possibly understand is why the email is not kept in my HD2: I get the notification, I click to download it, hence, in that very moment a copy of the email is in my device. Then, why can't it be kept in my device if it was already there!?
It's fine if later on, it refreshes and it detects that there's no email in the server's inbox....but please, don't delete me the copy that I already had in my device! It has no sense!
Isn't there an option to keep these copies?
And yes, you're right, I don't want to alter my outlook, that would be a nightmare.
Cheers!
No choice for that?
Are you all happy with this email behaviour?
..I'm asking because there seems not to be a solution for this...
Up...
I'm having the same problem man... it's giving me the ****S. How do I put android on this PoS HD2?!
figured it out...
Open inbox > Menu (scroll down to tools) > Options > Click your email account > skip through all the bull**** until you get to the "Email Setup, automatic send / receive & dowload messages" drop down boxes screens, Hit "Advanced Settings", then change the 'When deleting messages:' from delete them off the server to keep them on the server.
Stupid WinMo.
Try an email account that supports IMAP. Some providers allow POP3 or IMAP so you might not have to change accounts.
I don't like the way IMAP looks in Outlook, but it works much better across several devices. I have two PCs and a couple of phones. No matter where I am, each device always reflects what is ACTUALLY in my email online. It took a little adjusting to, but I think it's much better. In Active Sync/Windows Mobile Devie Center, I no longer have Outlook set to synchronise with my device. Try signing up for a free Gmail account and try it on your phone and in Outlook on a PC and see what you think...
Somehow found what seems to be the problem...
inbox - tools - options - accounts tab - choose your account - edit account setup - click next until:
Automatic Send/Receive:
[Every 60 minutes]
Download messages:
[From past 3 days]
Change this from past 3 days to All messages and voila!
It's seems to save space by providing you only with latest e-mails. Make sure to do the Storage options mentioned earlier!
Hi guys,
i got an issue that i cannot solve and the search function didnt give any solutions.
I got gmail IMAP Account on my HD2 and when i click on send and receive, only the unread emails are downloaded.
I should be able to see all emails if i go to the folder "all emails" and press send/receive again, but altough it connects, it doesnt download anything.
So the question: Is there a way to see your already read emails on your mobile phone in wm6.5 with the hd2
Thanks in advance,
Ali
are you checking teh mail from another machine? (PC perhaps) that could be removing the messages once you send and recieve from there.

i do, but it doesnt remove or download them.
When going into my gmail account online, i still can see all entries.
i checked that already
Are they in the inbox or in "all mail" in Gmail?
Only those in the inbox will display. If your other PC moves them out of it (or gmail does it on its own once the mails are retrieved by the PC) they wouldn't show.
Must be such an issue, because I use 3 imap accounts on my HD2, that are also used by 2 other PCs, and everything's fine. Those are on my own server though.
If you use gmail on the HD2 you might want to use activesync instead of imap though....

They are not moved out, in my gmail account i can see all emails in "all mail" and "inbox"
But even if, the mobile email app also has a "all mail" folder of gmail so it should work anyway
The active sync thing is not a thing you can use when you arent at home. i would like to read new emails on my phone too.

I think I see what you mean, I encountered the same "issue" and found the solution "by accident": by default the Gmail account is set to keep emails from the 3 or 6 previous days, so that it erases the messages older than 3 or 6 days on you HD2. You can set a different time period, up to 30 days I think, but no sure...
The thing is I can't remember where it is... sorry, but that may be a lead...

The active sync thing is not a thing you can use when you arent at home. i would like to read new emails on my phone too.

No, it's actually better than just imap as it enables mail push. So instead of having to check mail every X minutes it's in permanent connection through activesync over data, and you simply receive mail as soon as it arrives on your gmail account.

I think I see what you mean, I encountered the same "issue" and found the solution "by accident": by default the Gmail account is set to keep emails from the 3 or 6 previous days, so that it erases the messages older than 3 or 6 days on you HD2. You can set a different time period, up to 30 days I think, but no sure...

i know, with wm6.1 you could assign that, this isnt possible anymore as the new account options are very few

oh! i didnt know that, do i have an "imap-like" function with it too even if using a non imap client such as "pop"? I mean are mails erased after syncing them to my mobile phone from server?
i ll go and start googling how to setup my mails through active sync ...
thanks for the hint!
hmm, no good finding in xda with google.
Kilrah, can you tell me where to set it up?
Its not the usual sync-email feature where you connect your phone to the connectivity center.
is it the "outlook" account when in email tab??
If yes, whats the server adress?
im confused )

Yes, works pretty much like imap.
Regarding how to choose for how many days it will display, it's still there, still at the same place. Don't forget to scroll the menu down

Wow, this rocks, thanks a lot.
One last off topic question. Where are the emails saved to and how can i change it if it is the main memory?
