curious to see if anyone has had any troubles with their yahoo mail not updating and/or password not validating? I'm not using the yahoo mail app, just the stock mail one. I recall this happening a year or so ago on another device.
thanks!

Had the same issue. Deleted the account and re added. Everything worked. Your issue is probably resolved by now but since no one else replied I figured I would.

Forgive me if this topic has been raised before -- I searched and didn't see anything.
I am seeing two issues with my Epic relating to e-mail I haven't seen raised.
1. Generic e-mail client doesn't sync reliably. It ran reliably for a day or two, but has stopped polling, and now the only way I can get the accounts in it to update is to go into the client and open them.
2. I cannot seem to get more than 2 gmail accounts added to the gmail client. I have three google accounts, and I had to set up my third one in the generic client after repeated attempts to add it to the gmail client resulted in server connection fails.
Anyone else seeing this? Is it possible I have a defective phone or something I did during the course of rooting (noobnl's one-click v 2.2.9) broke some functionality? Is it possible that the service responsible for the client's polling activity got broken?
Thanks in advance.
My email has been updating automatically fine. I've only had my Epic for a little over two weeks, though. I don't have multiple Gmail accounts so can't say. Also, I'm not rooted yet ( I've been waiting for the 2.2 upgrade). I'm not crazy about everything in the generic client but it does seem to work very well.
I thought I was having the same issue as OP, but I found that I guess I accidentally switched automatic updates off in the settings.
I have had my Epic since it launched and yes this has been an issue for me. I thought maybe I had something set wrong but I don't. I actually check my Yahoo acct through the browser now. It doesn't really bother me to much though so I deal with it. Facebook for Android is the same way usually too.

This is a common issue if you search around.
I've given up on the stock email app and just use K9 mail. Works perfectly. Has a few more options than the stock app too, although like a lot of open-source apps, maybe too many. I still haven't gotten all the fonts to look the way I want. But it's functional and doesn't give me any problems with syncing. An email app that won't tell me when I have new email is useless to me, and the stock app would only do that for maybe a day unless I rebooted. K9 always notifies me of email immediately.
I'm having a problem of my own. I just tried to send an attachment in the stock email app but I get a FC when I hit attach. In the gmail app however it works, gives me the option of gallery or astro. Could the FC in the email app occuring because I uninstalled the myfiles app and it defaults to it?

Exactly the same problem. Stock email client works for a while then just quits.
But anyway, thanks for the tip re K-9 mail. Just installed it and will give it a try. It is indeed considerably more complimicated and will probably take some fiddling to get everything the way I want it, but that's OK -- I guess if I wanted simple but uncofigurable functionality I'd have a feature phone or an iPhone.
Seems like the FB app does the same thing. Anyone have a suggestion for a good 3d-party FB client?
Oh, and does anyone else have more than 2 accounts in gmail?
reboot will fix it for a short period
same problem here... worked for two weeks and now only syncs if manually. Rebooting the phone gets it going again... for a few more days and then it will no longer sync again!
Hi,
Recently, my GMAIL stopped auto-receiving mail and will not update until I manually sync it.
It was working fine until yesterday evening.
Any idea how to fix this?

Did you change any settings? I know it doesn't sync as fast anymore when one has the "undo" function enabled, found under gmail settings. GL
I was having the same issue and addidng to that was that I was not receiving all the email. It showed that there were new emails but those were not always appering. Fixed it by wiping data with Titanium.

To my knowledge, I didn't change any settings. Looking at the feedback in the market, I noticed that some of the other more recent comments show the same issue.
I think it was Gmail, not your phone. I had the same problem today. Then I got a bunch of emails all at once.
I'm having the same issue today as well. Probably a server issue.
+1 here, very annoying!
looks like this is a google server issue and they are looking into it:

It appears that Google has fixed this as of 6pm eastern
Thought everything was all well on my Atrix but everytime I reply to my yahoo email or try to send a new one it says message not sent.
I receive emails no problem.
The odd thing is I'm pretty sure I initially send an e-mail to test it when I first got it and it worked.
I've read there's seems to be a common problem. Any idea what to do/change?
I've tried to go thru all the e-mail settings and what not, nothing seems to be doing anything? Is there an app that's getting in the way.
Ughh, this is frustrating.
I use Gmail for most things and it works fine. I have issues receiving and sending with Yahoo with the Yahoo app. I believe its a common problem.

gmail works fine but I made a yahoomail my default account in blurrrr.
I'm not using an yahoo app, just the stock e-mail thing.
How come when you use gmail it does not say "sent from my Motorola Atrix" ?
If I turn off wifi, it works.
Seems like a known problem searching around the net.

Need to add the sig.
I am using the native HTC mail client on Evo 4G. It failed to retrieve new Yahoo mail. Any one else having this issue?
I have 3 yahoo accounts on my EVO and all of them are set up the EXACT same way. All work just as they have for the last 14 months, except one. It will not load any of my emails. It just says "More emails on server"
And another strange thing is my settings for mail size and email count keeps changing. I had it set up to download 200 emails at a time with no size limit and some thing keeps changing the size to 25KB and to download by days instead of number of emails... any one have a fix for this or any idea as to what is actuall going on?
I found a thread over at android forums as well ont his issue, but no one has posted anything on it here...
here is the thread link to over there
http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-support-troubleshooting/359424-yahoo-mail-stopped-working.html
TIA!
Yes! I have been having the same problem. Everything was perfect, then all the sudden, nothin...
I ended up downloading the Yahoo mail app from the market. Kinda like it better anyways.
Use the Yahoo app.
Same here, no email from yahoo
Just an update, for all the Yahoo threads, my mail just now updated in the HTC app.
I refreshed a couple of times, and it is working!

Hi Guys,
Wondering if there's anyone who can help me with an issue I'm having.
I've set my corporate email up (NOT Gmail) and set it to sync every hour, however this setting doesn't seem to get applied and I'm receiving notifications as soon as emails arrive in my inbox i.e. push notifications.
Anyone else having this issue? Or know how to stop this from happening?
Cheers,
B

Having the same issue and I've posted this very same question a good while back too.
The only "valid" response that I got was install a mail app on your phone...
I haven't done that and I'm just living with the push as it is :/
Due to Franco's Kernel my battery lasts more than a day so I'm happy enough (meaning I don't mind the extra battery drain from this)
But I'd still like it if it were once per (half) hour

Really, that's the only solution!?!?! Surely this BUG in the android mail app has a fix somewhere??? I think the app is perfect in every way except for this one thing!

That's the only solution I've been given yes.. And I refuse to get an app for things that should work buildin anyway.
My topic just got no further answers..
Another one, "best" response was to get an app
Several more topics but non consist of any information about this ANNOYING BUG! :/

Thanks mate! I guess most people either want push notifications, or they're using another app for non-gmail email...
No problem.
Still doesn't fix the issue at hand though!
So if anyone has any advice how to fix this, feel free!!
I have noticed this too with my work e-mail account which connects to a corporate Exchange server using ActiveSync. I noticed that when setting the e-mail to anything other than push nothing changed apart from the battery usage for the exchange service on the phone, which surprisingly seemed to go up.
Is everyone who is having this issue using Exchange e-mail accounts?

I'm only syncing my hotmail email account and that gives problems for me. Not sure about the google one as I don't really use it.
Anyone got any solution besides an app?!

How have you configured Hotmail? Has it been set up as an Active sync (corporate) account (will have options for calendar and contacts syncing) or a POP3 account?
Using POP3 will probably let you choose a checking frequency, but you lose the option to delete messages from the server etc.

So all these topics including in the ask anything topic and no one even bothered to mention this? :/
It's written nowhere that this is the solution. And damn it's very easy too
So basically if you use google for calendar / contacts its the following:
* Ability to delete mails from server -> connect as Corporate
* sync frequency -> connect as Mail
-------
This is my first android phone so the difference was unknown to me sadly.
Thanks!
