Is there a way to mark a new email as read from the Touch Flo email area. It does it when you read a text message.
good question!
drove me mad today when i setup my email account.
The best work around i had was to let it download everything, then open the last mail (in inbox) then press the left key on the dpad to scroll back through emails till i got to the front.
96 emails later all were marked read. It doesnt take that long because the diamond renders them very quickly. Maybe 1 second an email, and you only really need to do it the first time u sync.
This little CAB adds an option to your inbox to "mark all as read". Don't know where it came from, but whoever made it, priceless stuff.

I know that this was addressed before, but after searching LITERALLY for about 30 minutes I cant find the registry edit needed to make the email tab in HTC Home default to Outlook (and not whatever the last previously used messaging program was). Any help with this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
bump, someone please reply
bumping..........
I recall this being discussed quite a bit in the Hermes forum, and my conclusion was that the email icon has a mind of it's own and is not controllable by any reg settings or xml file. On my Hermes, it would always open the last one I used, but on the Tilt (with a later build of HTC Home) I always get the 'select an account' screen.
no matter, use the hard button for messaging. easier to hit without the stylus anyway. just keep hitting the button to cycle through your messaging accounts.
while looking for something else, i stumbled on this tidbit...
When I press the Email button on the "Home" tab, it takes me to my MMS/SMS messages. How can I fix this?
This is a known issue with the HTC Home Plugin. The workaround is to create a POP account on your device, then press the Email button again. It should now take you to your email messages. You can then remove the POP account if unneeded.

I read my emails from the TF3D Mail tab. I tap or wipe on the email in the envelope to open them. All good.
What I do not get though.... is when finished reading I press the BACK hard key and 90% of the time I am returned to TF3D Envelope view. Other 10% of the time I am returned to the WM Mail "Accounts" view showing my four email accounts and SMS/MMS.
I cannot see any rhyme or reason as to why this behaviour varies. Can someone PLS enlighten me. I think I can have multiple unread mails in various accounts and the BACK behaviour is still not consistent. Although I could be wrong.
I actually like it returning to my WM Mail "Accounts" view and would like it to always go here on the first BACK key stroke and then back to the envelope on the second BACK key.
Hi,
Anyone experienced this: Email was working fine, but from one day to the other, no way to read e-mail anymore.
All mail header are displayed correctly in the mailbox, but when opening email, I just have a blank screen and no text at all. This is also true for SMS when trying to read from the mailbox. However, I still can read the SMS from the TF3 interface, but not from the mailbox.
So I still have some hope e-mail text is stored somewhere but cannot be displayed for some reasons...
Would be great if someone could help before I get out of patience and do hard reset !!!!!!
Thanks a lot to the community - this forum really helps to get the Diamond usable.
I have the T-Mobile(UK) version of the Diamond & I am experiencing many issues with it.
I had the Vario II before and never had a problem with it but this is driving me nuts at times.
I love the phone but the issues I am experiencing are spoiling it.
The issues include...
1. When phone has been charging if you turn it on from standby the screen comes up but is frozen. Holding off button does not work, the only way to turn it off is to remove the battery. I have also had it freeze with the screen black.
2. The phone vibrates & continues to do so, again only removing the battery will stop it.
3. Ring tone does not start until a short while after a call comes through.
4. Lower part of handset gets extremely hot whilst in use.
5. I have NTL mail set up & it continuously shows 1 unread email message. I have recieved hundreds of emails since and read them all but the 1 unread message logo on home screen & text on bottom of screen in NTL mail remains even if inbox is empty. Didnt want to 'Clear NTL mail' as I want to keep my sent messages etc.
6. Type assist thing is extremely annoying & I dont seem to be able to permanently turn it off! I write something then put a full stop, question mark etc and press enter or space and it puts it at the beginning of the word, not after where it should be.
7. Changed keypad layout but still remains as big QWERTY.
8. Intermittently all my contacts vanish & the numbers in my call history have lost their name tags.
9. Just noticed all my 'Favourite people tags' have disappeared
10. Also the finish is rubbing off the back cover even though I am very carful with it and mainly keep it in my suit pocket. Had my Vario II for 18 months and it still looks like new.
11. Many other issues but cant remember them all at the moment.
I have not altered any of the software and am not very technical so please keep any replies very basic.
I have had the phone about 3 months, how do I go on with returning it under warranty if there is no easy fix?
Thanks
Rich

This can be resolved by going to your inbox, then click "inbox" in the top left and goto "Outlook E-mail" where there is a welcome message. Delete that and you should be ok.
Regarding the other problems you might need to upgrade your ROM, theres plenty of info in the Diamond ROM development section on that.
Unfortunately that does not work. The unread message is showing in my NTL world inbox, you go into the inbox and there is nothing there! It even says '1 unread message' along the bottom of the screen even though the inbox is empty
How do you upgrade the ROM? Will it affect the warranty?
Just tried the Clear "NTL World" option in tools as a last resort but its still there!
When I'm compiling emails on my TyTN II, I find that often my email will be unintentionally sent when I'm only part way through due to a keyboard combination being used. Section 7.7 of the TyTN II user manual (page 134) refers to keyboard shortcuts and mentions holding down the S key is a shortcut to send the message but as in this (much) earlier thread I found relating to Accidentally pressing keyboard shortcut to send SMS, it refers to SMS sending and I'm having the issue with email. Is this pressing the softkey still the cause (I'm pretty sure it seems more like pressing a combination of keys around the S that are doing it in my case). More importantly, has anyone found a Cab, fix or even a WWE HTC ROM to stop this happening?
It's very annoying and I would have though some solution must have been found by now. I'll mention it in a letter to HTC but based on their past 'performance', I don't hold out much hope of a quick (or even eventual) fix from them. I'm therefore hoping for a solution from forum members so please let me know.
For me, its happened when i accidentally hit the send soft key between the R and T. I know its pretty bad sending half an uneditted email to a client and then having to send another email explaining why it happened and carrying on from there.. very unproffesional.
My solution to this problem is to simply cut and past the recipients email address from the to field to the subject field. Then once i'm done editing and everythings squared off and ready to go, i'll just cut and paste from the subject field back into the to field.
hope this little work around helps you. As for a hotfix or a confirmation message before sending it, i haven't heard of one.
I press that goddamn softkey all the time.....
It is really embarassing when you send a message half complete!
Good tip about the subject line
AEBPlus
I use AE Button Plus and have set the soft keys to ignore a single press. If I need to access the single-press application, then I just need to press on the screen.

Thanks for that work-around, that'll certainly do the trick if I remember to blank the 'to' field before creating the email. I've also emailed the AE Button Plus email address to see if they are willing to make a version of the product that works just with the TyTN IIs email and SMS program when thats in operation. I've also unticked the 'send messages immediately' box in my Windows Live Options on the TyTN II (since I use my Hotmail account through this device). I've found that this puts my email into the drafts folder and it's only when I then send the draft that it actually leaves - it's a bit of a pain though given keyboard short cuts are supposed to help rather than hinder.Definitely one for HTC and Microsoft to address.
