I'm using originally released WM6 WWE. i have 3 email accounts on my mda, I can receive emails fine. but whenever i want to compose/reply an new email, the mail program stop responding. I have to go to memory and close the messaging/email program. Any suggestion will be appreciated.
i also discovered a new feature, I can have push email for hotmail w/o any additional service/software as a part of the MS live.
how many programs do you have accessing the internet when you send email? i started having that problem the other day on wm6. i would send/recieve mail then open up ie while thats downloading and while yahoo go was checking mail. i disabled yahoo go from automatically syncing and stopped multi tasking while sending and receiving mail and everything went back to normal.
i hope that helps
thx, didn't get a chance to try ur suggestion, i hardreseted and restore using sprite backup. it's working again. I think it has something to do with google map.

Hey everyone,
I'm new to these boards but have been a long time PDA/phone user. Last night, I downloaded and installed the 2.25 ROM for my Cingular 8125 device and setup my Exchange account.
I have an MS Exchange 2003 SP2 mailbox and setup Direct Push, but the e-mails still take a minute or two to get to me when a Blackberry or GoodLink take about 15 seconds. It seems that the Exchange server just pushes out an IP packet to my phone to make it go through the [seemingly wasteful] process of performing an ActiveSync operation. So constantly my connection arrows are alternating between "connected" and "ActiveSyncing." To me, it's almost as slow as the old SMS push-pull method.
Furthermore, it seems that (a) my ability to sync my subfolders is gone. Previously, I could select folders to sync to my device from my device. Now, I can select all my folders, but they are all empty (except my Inbox). If I go to Menu -> Tools, the "Manage Folders" option is greyed out. I cannot tap and hold a folder to sync it. And (b), the option to manually "send/receive" is also greyed out. If I turn DirectPush off (which I do at night to prevent receiving my emails), I have to open the ActiveSync application to get my e-mail instead of previously being able to tap Menu -> Send/Receive from the Messaging program.
Is this normal? Are these the results that others are seeing from MSFP? Finally, are there any other noteworthy improvements in this ROM other than MSFP? If this is the case, and there are no other improvements, wouldn't it behoove me to revert back to the previous ROM?
Thank you in advance for you help and insight!

The messaging app can switch between SMS, Email and MMS. You can switch it by press Email button on top left corner or by changing accounts in menu. Sounds like all you issue is related to the fact that your messaging app is currently in other accounts like SMS or MMS.

Foxbat,
Thank you, but I am in the Outlook E-mail account. I'm pretty savvy about these things to know at least that much!
I'm still not able to manage my folders or manually send and receive and I still feel like there's a longer lag time than Blackberry or GoodLink.
Are you using the MSFP ROM with an Exchange 2003 SP2 account? If so, what are your experiences?
Thanks again!
Yes, I'm using MSFP on 2.17 ROM right now. I have none of your issues.
i can just say that it doesn't sound like the MSFP is actually working in your case. Once i switched to directpush, my messages are on my phone within 5 seconds, no activesync whatsoever. same for calendar, tasks and contacts.
i have a tmo blackberry and a tmo mda - i tested sending messages to both at the same time, on average the mda receives the message about 1 second later than the blackberry - an extrememly nice improvement.
The send/receive option in Outlook account is always greyed out, you can only receive email there by syncing or push mail. there is a thread on this on this forum, called Pocket Outlook Account is worthless or something like that.

Wrong. It works just fine all the time for me in 2.17 ROM and 2.24 ROM (I skipped the worthless 2.25 Cingular ROM). I don't know what's wrong with OP's issue. Maybe he should re-examine the settings or do a hard reset.
I had a similar problem when I updated my ROM. Send/recieve and Manage Folders was greyed out. I fixed it by deleting the sync to my exchange and re-adding it through active sync on my PC. From active sync on the PC double click Exchange server. Click the "delete server" button. Wait for it to sync and remove all your emails from the phone. Then go Tools > Configure Server Source and add it back in. This worked for me.
If that doesn't work, you can select folders in active sync. That also worked for me before I deleted and re-added my exchange. Not as handy as being able to do it from the phone though.

It's helped me! Thank you so much peon!
I have been using an exchange server since the 8125 was released, then with the 8525 never a problem. Now with the tilt I recieve e-mail fine, however when I send e-mail it sits in my outbox for around 5 minutes. I have it set to send and recieve on send in activesync. If I open active sync and sync it works fine. I also never have the send and receive option it is always grey. I am debating a restore I back up everything,but my email attachment are saved on my storage card and after the restore none of them can be found so I have to erase all my email and resync which takes forever. Is there a way to tell the phone where to look after the restore with a reg edit or something.
Thanks
There is an option in Messaging to send immediately. Do you have that turned on? If not, it will just wait until the next sync event.
I have searched all weekend for a solution to this with no luck.
I upgraded my TILT to the new official ROM.
I am using exchange server for my email.
When I am using the device or sometimes when I start to use it, a window is opened full screen with the title "Activesync." The form has a big empty rectangle in it.
I know the device is "syncing" however , i don't want it moving to the top of everything I am working on.
Is there a way to hide this function?
Thanks
If im not mistaking, there is a setting in kaiserTweak that allows you to do this
I have been through KaiserTweak and haven't found it.
Do you know which setting?

yes, i would like to know as well...i have never seen this before
Well I discovered the cause of the window popup... This empty activesync dialog is actually an error received from the exchange server, specifically exchange server 2007.
There is a known BUG that Microsoft has been working for the last few months that occurs between WM6.1 and Exchange server 2007. If you mail from your phone on your exchange account, it will send the mail, however the mail remains in your PPC outbox that results in sending the mail again upon the next server sync. The mail never leaves your outbox - resulting in the error dialog, and the mail sending over and over - 26 times for me last night to a group of 20+ people.
I may have to downgrade my Tilt to WM6.0, unless I can find a magical way of deleting the email from the PPC outbox after it is sent....

umm...are you sure about this, what about the people that have never used an exchange setup. or are you saying that by default, that the phone is trying to connect to an exchange server?
What I am trying to say is if you are using an exchange server for you email - as I do for work, then this bug occurs only for the OUTLOOK mail.
I have two yahoo accounts and one gmail account and I do not get this "stuck" sent mail in the outbox. Only in the OUTLOOK mail that communicates with the company exchange server.
Sorry for the confusion...
Well, I have to downgrade back to 6.0. Bummer! I was enjoying the battery life from the new radio in the ATT6.1 rom.
I sent one mail from my device, went straight to the OUTBOX to delete the mail - and during this 30 second time frame, it sent the mail 5 times!
Just a warning, if you are using exchange server 2007 - do NOT upgrade to 6.1. Sending mail is just broke.
I use WM 6.1 and ES 2007 without issue, never heard of this bug. Do you know anyone else at your job with the same issue?
another issue
hi i have another issue with AS and i cant seem to find anyone else with the same problem. while syncing music/videos with wmp11 on vista the connection is always lost about 1/4 the sync list. anyone know about this?
marty...
Yes I do. Someone just got a TILT for work that came with 6.1 already installed. He has the same issue with the email.

I don't use exchange server myself but have you tried changing your schedule settings to sync manually. I beilve it's in activesync/menu/schedule
HBEAR,
Yes I have. I tried setting it to exclusive. Heck, I even mapped the PPT button to show the today screen to get by the popup.
The popup you are seeing is the error from exchange server. When you send mail from the exchange account, the mail will get stuck in the outbox and keep sending until you delete it yourself.
Our company is going to implement the Microsoft patch to fix this in the middle of October. I couldn't wait, so I downgraded back to 6.0. TF2D works great on it. However, now my battery drains fast again.
I looked through the forums to see what radio and SPL that could be flashed for a 6.0 rom but everything I found was for 6.1. So I am using the unbloated ATT rom.
Man i miss the 6.1 radio!
Hi Guys
When i get email on my topaz everything works fine but when i go home and check email on my pc whatever email i received durning the day is repeated but when i look at the mail on my pc, its deleted automatically off topaz next time i send and receive is this right?.
What if i want to keep a email on my phone.
HELP !!!!!
Yes that's right. If you want the emails on your phone then synchronize them with your PC's outlook. Consider your email account on your phone as a temporary store, and your OUTLOOK inbox on your phone as your permanent store.
Ok tks for that.
Is there no way to change like the iphone if you receive it stays on phone till you delete it.?
Tks
What email are you using? POP IMAP exchange or hotmail?

Knowing that i am using Pop email, can I keep the mails on both units? the phone and the pc? i need to have the control over the emails so i can delete them when i need.
Thank you
If you set both your PC and your phone to leave messages on the server when you delete them it should work ok. You'll have to keep on top of your mailbox another way though, deleting the messages via web mail or moving the mails in to folders or something.
Matt.
If you synchronize your Outlook email between your phone and your PC, then you will obviously have copies of your email on both devices and you can manipulate them to your heart's content.
Tks
Thanks Guys all sorted !!!!!!
Hello, Please forgive me if this is anywhere on the forum, but I have searched everywhere and cannot find it.
I have lost the ability to get any emails and messages. This is not just a problem of not being able to send, I can no longer even see my email and message accounts. When I tap messaging or email, on my front screen in programs or wherever else, there is just a brief pause and then nothing happens.
I am using Mobile 6.1 on an unlocked Tilt (kaiser). I have a number of SPB programs running. I upgraded the ROM about a year ago, but I cannot remember which one it is. I have tried using a backup of the phone that I saved with SPB plus. Nothing.
I've tried hooking it to active sync and then trying to sync the emails. Not only nothing, it cannot sync--though this was a problem long before.
There are a few other quirks, too I use Tmobile and there is a signal that you have a phone message. I go into voicemail and there are no messages, but the symbol still remains.
Also, when it boots up, it tells me that there is a problem with my voice command program.
How do I get email and messaging back without reinstalling everything?
Has anyone ever heard of not being able to access the email and message functions of outlook at all-- and have them just stop suddenly.
Thanks
Fized the Problem
I am not sure what fixed it, but I went all around the site. I decided to try two things before reinstalling everything. First, I deleted any of the new programs I had installed recently. That did not do it. Then I popped out the storage card and rebooted. That did it -- but then I had a lot of memory problems. (I don't mean in my head, though I do sometimes.) So I uninstalled some of the larger programs, such as the SPBs. It is finally working again.
I'm not sure what happened, but if others are having this problem, try this first and see if it works.
PS It is fixed, not fized. Sorry about that
I'm not sure if I got that right or not, but is the problem that your inbox doesn't even open or it opens but the mail sync isn't working??? for me i had a problem in my mail sync and it wasn't solved except when i changed which internet connection type the programs should use.
Outlook not opening .. fixed

I had the same problem with Outlook not opening for email or text messages. The problem seems to be that there were several messages in the outbox which would not send. I had specified that attachments be placed on the storage card when available.
To solve the problem of Outlook not opening I first ran the Microsoft Installer Package “WindowsMobile61-KB958639.msi” to correct the SMTP email sending problem. Next I removed the storage card and rebooted the device. Outlook then opened and I did a send and receive which cleared the outbox. Then I replaced the storage card.
The problem of Outlook not opening appears to be fixed.
