Hey, Just wondering if anyone knows of a program that can open a POP3 mailbox, download the messages, then forward them out to another email address. Ideally I'd like to set this up as a scheduled task to get those pesky email addresses I have that don't let you set up forwarders into one central mailbox.
Any ideas / suggestions?

Having a few problems with email. I can't find any way of managing email accounts in WM6. I am currently trying to sync with my companies exchange server. I have all the details I need but when I try to add an email address via Start > Messages > Messaing > New Email account" I get stuck.
It asks me for my email address. I uncheck the 'find settings on the internet' box thing. It then asks for my name and pop3/imap4 server address. I assume this is trying to setup the wrong type of email as I was expecting to be able to select 'Exchange Server' but I am not getting the option to do so.
Am i doing something retarded?
Thanks
Jon
To connect to exchange server directly you go to active sync on your device and "Configure Server"
Don't know what your doing but for me it works fine.
Exchange for skool mail.
Pop3 for Mobile private website mail.
Outlook sync for Private website mail.
It gave me the option the first time I did it but not anymore. Is it only possible to sync with one exchange server and that I have to delete the first attempt before trying to add another?
Also, is there a way of managing the email accounts in WM6 as I want to delete a couple of test accounts I have been playing with and cant seem to find out how to get rid of them.
Thanks
Jon
Open an email or SMS account.
Tap Menu, Tools, Options.
That takes you to a screen where you can add or delete accounts as well as change connection settings for them.

You can only sync with one exchange server.
Think I have most things sorted now. The only issue I cannot resolve is I am not being alerted when a mail arrives in my live messenger account. I get the alert when it lands in the inbox but am not being alerted if one of my message rules sends it to one of my custom folders.
I have an AT&T tilt. It seems like whenever I get an email and I check it on my Tilt, if I move that email from the inbox into its appropriate folder that later on I notice the email is marked as unread again.
If I leave it in the inbox this doesn't happen.
As an example, in the morning when I get up, I check all my email on my phone and then move them into the appropriate folder. But by the time I get to work and check my email on the computer I see that all the folders that I moved the emails too are bold and show that there is an unread message in them. When I check those folders I see the the unread emails are the ones I checked on my phone earlier in the morning and that I already read them.
This is probably something really simple, but it's annoying and I don't know how to fix it. I'd appreciate it if anyone could help me out. Thanks!

Anyone have any idea on how to fix this? Thanks!
Please? Anyone?
(Exchange) It's because in the AS settings you chose to have your desktop overide your device. This is popular because on older model ppc's with volatile memory if your device died you'd lose evrything when you resync'd via wireless sync with the device overiding the desktop.
(Hotmail, Yahoo, etc...) This also happens because the mail host overides the device. The only way to make the email stop is to perform the read on the host account site.
Thanks a lot for the explanation. That makes sense.
Very annoying, when I send an email to someone I get a copy to my inbox on Kaiser's preinstalled email client, but not on MS Outlook on PC. Has anyone experienced this sort of a problem? cheers
this was happening to me with POP3 Gmail. Switched to IMAP4 Gmail and haven't experienced it since.

I've no idea why it was behaving like that though.

i had the same problem. can you guide me on how to switch to IMAP4? thanks
go into your mail then go to options, next, next select email then go to settings, then go to advanced and add your own email address to 'my email addresses' and it will stop copying you on your own reply all emails. This was posted on tiltmobility.com the other day where they have a step by step. http://tiltmobility.com/2008/10/how-to-fix-windows-mobile-reply-all-issue/
I am using the default email client in WM. I check email manually only when I need it to save battery life and cut down on un-needed notifications.
The problem I have is that my emails are not sorted based on when they are sent. The only date option for sorting is "Received" date. For some reason, the received date does not seem to have anything to do with the date it was sent.
So, when I do a Send/Receive, I want the most recent on the top of the list. But if it has been a few days, I get a couple hundered message and it is almost impossible to sort through because they are all mixed up.
Does anyone else have this issue? Also, do you have another email client you would recommend?
Thanks for any advice.

I use FlexMail every now and then when I flash a rom that gives me the same problems you are describing. They have a 30 day trial so you can test it and see if it will work for you. It offers Folder support and multiple signatures. The only free fix I have found is a differant ROM.

what rom are you using?
what email settings are you using? imap or pop?
What email client?
When you use pop internet clients, like gmail or yahoo, that thread messages, all the messages come out when pop. on imap though, it keeps it organized in date format.
maybe try removing all accounts and reinstalling your account and making sure to use imap.
try emoze you, with the newest version you can sync any email....
I'm not sure if anyone else has come across this, but I use a POP email account on my desktop, and I also have it set up in K-9 Mail so that I can receive my email wherever I go. What I've noticed though, is that 95% of the time, it says (on my desktop computer) that there's already an open connection/something else is already using it. Occasionally if I close K9 with the Advanced Task Manager, I can download my messages.
But it seems as though its sending some keepalive or something. I have my e-mail to check every half an hour, but I know for my e-mail(Telus)..sessions time out after 10 minutes.
Anyone know if there's any way to get around this more efficiently, or if there's an alternate email application that handles these connections better?
I know that if I switch to IMAP, it works fine..the only problem is that Outlook doesn't store a copy of the messages locally with IMAP.
Thanks in advance!
