E-Mail save message to? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Can I put my email messages to storage card? Eventhough I select the box to save to storage card, it seems like my built-in Storage is getting filled up as my email gets bigger. Any tips or tricks to get around this? Move old email to somewhere else maybe?
I tried Tweaks2k2.net registry hack and that didn't help. Any one has this problem? I'm using the exchange e-mail to get my e-mail to my Tilt.
Thanks

All sent mail gone, no copy stored in "Sent mail"

Hi,
I am using IMAP on Kaiser to get e-mail and I have set the option on Kaiser to "Keep copies of sent items in Sent folder" but it does't do it.
I have a subfolder of "Inbox" called "Sent mail" (created automatically) and a separate "Sent mail" folder but when I send e-mail, it doesn't appear in any of them.
I deleted the account once and created it again, but still no luck. All e-mail I have sent from kaiser vanish.
Any suggestions?
Sent Emails - Not Storing
Does anyone know why the TyTn II phone does not save your sent emails to the send folder? I have checked all setting on my phone and checked with my service provider and they have advised that it's a technical issue with the phone?
Does anyone have a solution?

Are you using an Exchange server, or POP3 or IMAP?
Have you checked if the folder for send items is checked under Manage Folders?
I am using IMAP. All settings on the phone have been checked and are correct.
Apparently, anyone who is with the "Three" Network and is viewing their 3 email address using their TYTN II phone will have issues with emails being stored in the sent folder.
Apparently, the HTC TYTN II phone has a few troubles with IMAP4 servers.
Sometimes it will store the sent emails and sometimes not.
There has got to be a solution for this.
Three said that nothing can be done and HTC said to reinstall the ROM.
Can anyone help? Does anyone have any advice?
It is frustrating going back and forth between the two companies.

I have TyTN II with original firmware, tried soft and hard resets but nothing helps - no email is stored in "Sent messages" when I use IMAP. I live in Estonia and the operator is EMT. Can't remember if I tried POP3 or not, probably I did try and it didn't help. Right now my TyTN II is in service since it stopped accepting incoming calls and letting me make calls while 3G is available, no matter what band selection I make in the settings. I could only make calls if I turn 3G off or am connected to a cell that doesn't support 3G.
This is the 3rd time my unit is in service (1st speaker ceased to work, 2nd "Fn" light ceased to work and now I can't even use it as a phone).
It's probably gonna be my first and last HTC.
Really Irritating ...
I have Tele2Comviq here in Sweden and my sent messages don't save either. I am using an exchange server ... it is quite irritating. A fix would be great!

I have this problem as well.
It is amazing that a device such as the kaiser can have such a major bug in it (what is the point of having a 'sent' folder if the email system can't save any sent items?).
Go to the account picker screen. scroll through the accounts until you find one that will allow you to select "options" in the menu softkey popup. Go to the message tab & make sure all boxes are checked.
Did you manage to find a solution for this?
I'm having the same problem with my imap email (provided by 1and1.co.uk). Sent items are never saved on the PPC.
There are many posts on this forum but none have an answer to the problem.
Have you subscribed to the Sent Items folder(s)?
Need to go to Menu > Tools > Manage Folders and select the folder in question.
or make sure the option to save sent mail is checked in the settings
Yep have done that already.
When I do send a message from my device, the email is there for a few seconds- but as soon as the send/receive is complete, the message disappears forever.
My Exchange mail works fine but IMAP not so(!)

I have done that too.
When you log in to their webmail interface does your PPC sent e-mail show in either of the folders?

It doesn't show on there neither. It wouldn't be too bad if it saved it in at least one location, be it not the PPC.

I did this and it worked. I can't believe it, I can now see my sent mail on my device. I still can't see the foldered items though ... I'm a happy camper!!

Remember the settings for how long to keep the messages on your device.
I appreciate everyone suggesting to go to options --> manage folders and to ensure sent items is ticked.
This will generally work for POP accounts but IMAP apparently has issues with it. Sometimes it will store the sent email and most times it wont.
Any other fixes????

Yep, true- I actually had the same account setup as a POP account but then I needed the folders, messages, etc sync'd so tried out IMAP only to realise this problem.
I read in other posts that the sent item folder has to be called ''Sent Items". With 1and1.co.uk it is called "Sent" and of course I can't rename a non-user created folder.

annoying email problem

hey guys, just wondering if anybody else has teh same problem and if theres any fixes....
i have 2 email accounts that download automatically (every hr). i get the new emails, delete them, and an hour later they're downloaded again as new! it gets really annoying! the only way i've found to avoid it most of the time, is to delete the emails, and then hit send recieve... dunno... anybody else?

I do not get this problem at all on my Kaiser. You are obviously leaving a copy of you mail on the servers (is that intentional?). I also leave mine on the server so that I can collect it from my PC as the main collection point (which then removes it). However, despite me using the same settings as you I do not see this problem. Have you checked all the advanced settings?
Do you have the deleted items being emptied each time you connect/disconnect? (This is in messaging app - menu-tools-options and the Storage tab) Try looking at this setting - I am just guessing but it may be that your device is emptying the deleted items and so when you next connect it recollects all mail not knowing it was originally put into the deleted items by you?
Just a guess that may be worth looking at .
ekh this problem has gotten even worse now that ive upgraded to dutty's 6.1 rom... now it wont even delete the emails off the server! i delete thee mails, hit send/recieve, and everything seems to be fine. but next time it downloads my email it downloads all the old emails! i've checked all my settings, and everything is right! any ideas? i might just end up going back to a 6.0 rom...

I have dutty's 6.1 on my kaiser also. No email issues here. I have my kaiser set to delete my mail right off the server, where they go into the servers delete file untill I permanently delete them. I usually keep about 6 months worth in the delete file in case I need to look one up. There is a setting in the kaiser email setup to delete off the server. Is it checked? Sounds like everytime you sync it's sending whatever's there. My sync is set to always on. Maybe that makes a diff.
any more news... Using duttys' too and same probblem... Using godaddy for the server and the emails won't delete off the server..
However outlook on laptop and my old hermies/Tytn-I/8525 running 6.0 works!!!

using Internal Storage for mail

Hope this is not a stupid question?
I use my diamond for work and on my S730 i had a cab file that used my Storage Card instead of the phone to store mail. I used this cab file on the diamond but does not work. Does anyone know how to use the internal storage instead of the phone for my mail
Thanks
Brian
in the mail settings you can choose to let attachments of e-mails be stored in the internal storage. The mail itself can't be stored on the internal storage, but i don't see the point of that (because a email is about 1/2 kb most of the time.
Thanks for the reply. The reason i like to save all to the storage card is i had the whole 2gb mailbox on my 4gb card on my S730 phone. We do not currenly have exchange 2007 and i can not use the search option. As i am out alot around our 4 sites its a pain if i need an email that is not stored on my phone as on the road alot. That is why i had that cab file that changed the settings some how so it stored all emails and attachments on my old card. I am sure someone will release a hack to do the same on the Diamond
Thanks
Brian

Yes it can...the (PropertyPath) setting is just located in a different registry setting.
However, I've tried it and immediately ended up getting the common "Storage Card2 issue", a known issue with this trick.
So I've reverted back to the default setting. But you're right that just the emails aren't all that big to begin with.
I would'nt encourage you to put 2 gig of e-mails on your phone. Isn't it smarter to just get the last few days of mail via your phone and if you need a older mail you use the webinterface of your e-mail provider? (on your phone with opera ofcourse)

contacts arent saving help please?

I have a tmobile g1 that isnt rooted and after using it fine for quite a while recently I am unable to save any of my contacts. Everytime I make a contact and I save it, after about 5 minutes, the contact dissapears. can I fix this problem?

How can i tell where my contacts are saved?

How can i tell where my contacts are saved?
When i first got my phone I synced my phone with my outlook contact on my pc. Now when i want to add a contact using my phone it's asking me if i want to save the contact to either my phone or my sim card. I would like to keep things consistent and save it in the same place as the rest of my contacts. So does anyone know how to find out where my current contacts are saved?
Thanks.

Good questions, I don't have the answer but I'd like to know. I have a similar thread that no one has answered yet.
BTW, when I go to add a new contact I don't get your options!
My choices are:
1. Phone
2. Google mail
That is very strange. I'd like to get SIM card as an option.
If you want to know where your contacts are saved then go to your contacts, click the settings button, go to display options and from there you will be able to select what contacts to view, sim, phone and google. Click on one to view and that way you will know where they are all saved.
No idea why you cant have sim contacts mark, maybe your sim is full??

First of all, if you have your phone set up as I do,
Settings/Wireless Networks/Flight mode, 99% of the time, then you won't see SIM card as an option when you go into Contacts/Settings/Display.
This is one of many deficiencies of the SGS. I hope they change this in the next upgrade.

See above.
Furthermore, having just experimented with the SIM card setting now, it is quite 'limited'. It will only save the name, tel. number and e-mail address of your contacts, nothing else. You lose pics, home addresses, groups, and any other fields that you added etc.
But back to my original question.
How can you find the folder/files that the contacts are stored in on your phone?
Also, if you export your phone contacts to your SD card and then delete your phone contacts, will importing the contacts from your SD card bring EVERYTHING back faithfully? No lost pics, home addresses, groups etc.?
Has anyone here tried this?
TIA
