Sense 3.5 Email notifications Question - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Sorry about this but I don't understand what app is pushing email notifications to my phone on sense 3.5.
When I first boot up the rom before I have set up the email synch of HTC my phone will already get an email notification. Where does this come from? I would like to disable the app seeing as how I am receiving multiple notifications for one email.
Thank you for any assistance
---Edit---
Never mind I found it haha it was just gmail that was already on the phone to begin with. I wish I knew how to delete this...

Why would you want to delete gmail? Its the device main email. Its connected to Google which you sign in to your device with and sync everything with.

Because htc have its email app, so why need two if one is enough.

Some people use different apps for different mail. It's much more comfortable to use Gmail features on Gmail.
And the only thing needed to delete it, is any file manager with root privileges.

Original Android 2.1 Email Client

For those interested in original client available in "pure" Android 2.1 - here it is!
For me it's much more better than the HTC's one.
PS. God give us root to get rid of all that crappy HTC bloatware
What are the advantages of the original email app over HTC's version?
I like its look and feel,htc's one is too glossy.The same applies to music app.
Just try it yourself,it can be installed in parallel with htc one.

Is there anyway to get the app to delete the original emails off the server?
THANKS!!! it is awsome! Finnaly my emailsending works accross IMAP and TLS. With built in HTC email client it not works.
Np
As for deleting emails - don't know if you're talking about pop or imap. In imap you have to delete mail from trash to get rid of them.
Didn't tested this app with pop3, so don't know if tere is an option to "delete from server after download". But I think that there could be no such option to prevent user from mistakes.
But .... it's source is available via source.android.com... and it can be tuned, or feature can be requested.
Thanks, sorted my mail sending across SSL.
The stock HTC mail app is eating up the memory. After 3 days, I had 30 MB of mail data, and erasing all Accounts did not helped. The 30 MB was still there, so I had to make a Factory Reset. Thanks for this app!!
Thanks for this.
Does this app allow searching of emails, in particular Exchange?
I noticed, or haven't found, the search feature for the HTC Mail app :/
This works great on Legend, nice to see a bit of stock Eclair.

I would love to have this feature! I understand WinMob does this on exchange 2007...
I think I overlooked the obvious, pressing the search button!
Didn't give me results for my search, going to look into the number of emails the phone has access to, either copied to phone or on the server. I suspect the string I searched for was too far in the past.
[edit] Shame, only searches sender names and subject line :/
So, i installed this on my incredible and configured it to work with my office exchange account... set it up as push, and it never updated... went into the sync settings and it was in there, but was showing that it wasn't set to auto sync and i couldn't get it to sync from there.. originally when i first set it up, it was able to connect and download my past emails, but nothing after that.. I know i'm in the desire section of the site, so it may just be that ti's not gunna work on my Incredible right now, but i was wondering if root is required to use this?

don't know if i understood you correctly but i can search my exchange 2007 mail from my phone...
just open htc mail app and than press the hardware search button...type what you want to search and that's it...
thanks alot, this is so much better than sense's version, actually so much stock android 2.2 stuff is better than sense i'm thinking of rooting for 2.2
This force closes when I have an email with an attachment in my inbox, really annoying.
Does it require root?
Does this application require root access or can I install it even if the phone is unrooted? Another question -- Does this get me the combined inbox?

Although it does show you the count it doesn't refresh the widget until you manually open the HTC Mail application. Which makes the widget quite useless in my opinion.
im using exchange because you cant reply back off googlemail .... for some strange reason ... question i have unticked my googlemail email in the googlemail settings and only have contacts / calendar sync'ng but both my exchange and googlemail come through albeit one in the htc email widget and the other the googlemail widget contained in the menu .... any idea why ... if ive unticked surely it shouldnt sync ....

3rd party email problem

Hey everyon, so through my email app I hve my hotmail account syncing up to it. The problem I have is that when I receive an email and delete it from my phone, it does not delete it from my email account. I only check my email by computer every couple of days so its a PITA to delete a couple hundred emails when I do get on a computer. Does anyone else experience this and if so is there a work around or a free app that will sync my email and delete them from the server as well as my phone

Probably because I've had the email account for years before I had the phone, hell i'vehad th account before there was gmail. I understand that it is a google phone and that Gmail works better with thr phone but With over 200 email contacts I can't just drop my hotmail account.

First off, I don't have experience with your senarion.
That said, have you checked any settings on the phones email app nd hotmail for this problem? Also, do the emails that don't get deleted appear read? Or they unread?

If you go into the email app, then 'Settings->Incoming server settings->Delete email from server', you can change it from 'Never' to 'When I delete from Inbox', although I have had mixed results with this actually working on my Hotmail account. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt.

I've got the same problem. I don't especially mind my Facebook imported contacts showing in the full 'People' list, but I do not want them cluttering up my phone dialler screen.
How do I make my phone dialler ONLY show the numbers from my 'real' contacts (i.e. just the ones I sync with Outlook)? I can't see any sort of View option in the Dialler screen menus.

Contacts to sd card or titanium backup

Can someone ttell me how to save all my contacts to my sd card so for whenever I switch roms? Or can I also do this on titanium backup?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
Is there something wrong with using your google mail account for your contacts? That's how I did it when I tried out different ROMs. So you don't have to have the issue with saving it and restoring it. All you'd have to do is sync your phone with your google mail account.

Make sure your contacts are being created under your mail account and not on phone storage.

+5 on wtf is wrong with google?
however... as a criminal throttler (according to tmobile) if I want to flash a rom after a wipe and I am not near wifi my only alternative is to manually restore ****. Why? Because resyncing a **** load of data back to my phone while throttled makes me want to eat my phone in front of a tmobile rep. infuritating! (Its like driving a WWII era moped on the expressway)
but thats one reason why i sometimes need to avoid the gumminess of google. because it pisses off tmobile.
Another reason some people may not use Google for all of their syncing is if they use Google for personal contacts, but still have business/miscellaneous contacts (and their business does not use something like Google or MS Exchange that they can set up a sync for).
Granted, they could set up another Google account for the business ones, but maybe it's not allowed due to corporate IT policy or something. Everyone's usage model is different...
