Ok boys probably as many of you do, I use various email accounts, 2gmail, 1hotmail, and 2buiss emails.
The question is: If you go on menu and select recieve/send (i have mine setup to manual cheks) does selecting this manual chek once, recives email from all accounts??? or do you have to select account by account and individually ask for emails???
And last, you are not allowed to earese the account that messenger/hotmail creates.
Cheers boys!
Well, since you have all that set up, why don't you experiment and let us know the result?
To sync all in one use ActiveSync for that. You only have to press the Sync softkey and all is done for you. I assume if you use messaging within one of your account listed only that account is synced but I did not checked that. Google around or try for yourself. I never used Hotmail so I cannot help you with that.
Thanks, so i should set up the active sync right and instead of going to my mail app i just hit active sync. Is that correct?
Thanks for your time man.
cheers.

Right now I have 3 pop mail accounts setup. I normally switch to each account and do a send/receive for each account.
I there a way to automate send/receive for all 3 accounts with one command? Similar to how Outlook does it on the desktop.
When you find out. Please share with us.
The RK-OSR has a sync now function. It can be assigned to any hw button or use it as a quick launch icon from the desktop.
The program can be found at the Hermes section. It has many other great features in it, I recommend you check it out...
Since switching to T-Mobile, I now have "unlimited" data. I have configured my Kasier to collect mail automatically from all 3 of my accounts every 15 minutes. I had tried 5 minutes, but that seemed to eat the battery up.

just set the accounts to retrieve mail each certain of minutes, be sure to put the same number... smooth and easy
if you want to do it manual... i dont know.
I knew about the automatic retrieval every X minutes when I setup the email accts. I was hoping for a manual alternative that someone may know of.
Anyway, this is my 1st WinMo and I am doing OK. I have managed to replace my Tilt ROM with the HTC ROM, applied tweaks and hacks and have done many crazy things that 1st time users should not. I still have a working phone!
Thanks everone for the help. I will continue to use the "battery draining" auto check every 15 minutes until we find a better solution.
you can click "send and receive" which is manual, if that's what ya want.

The OP has 3 POP3 accounts and he/she wants to find a way to do a "one time" manual "send and receive" on all 3 accounts WITHOUT doing an individual "send and receive".
Did you read my post? The RK-OSR has that function, sync all accounts in one push:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=316696
I have unlimited data also, but i use the RK-OSK to sync all accounts from 9am to 5pm in every 30 minutes and only on weekdays. Why? Because of the battery drain. If im expecting emails or need to do it more often i use the push the sync function of RK-OSR to sync all my accounts in one push of a button.
The program has also a lot of good functions for people with limited data. i.e. close data connection after sync, sync only when wifi awailable or use gprs if wifi not awailable.
check the program out....

Thanks a million! Sounds awesome from the descriptions. I will definitely try it.
OK, this is probably a silly question, but I can't figure it out for the life of me.
I have set up a mail account to Gmail. In that account I'm forwarding some other accounts of mine, so it gets pretty crowded.
What I would like to do is delete messages from my phone but NOT from Gmail.
Outlook Mobile offers two choices, as far as I can see: when deleting messages either
Move them to server trash, or
Delete them off the server.
Neither of those suits me. I only want to delete them from the bloody phone.
A further restriction is that I like to use my mail from TF3D, and therefore would rather not having to install another mail client unless TF3D can somehow be coerced into working with it.
Oh, and in case you wonder - I don't sync my mail with the desktop Outlook. I'm using Gmail more and more...
Thank you all for your help.
have you tried both options, and seen what the effect on the server inbox is?
ive thought of this before, and it annoyed me greatly, but i cant remember the solution. plus, we all know how wm doesnt word things correctly.
rory
err... sorry.. duplicate post.. don't know why
Tap on mail (touch flo)
Inbox
Menu-Tools-options
Tap on Gmail
(setting should open up now)
Hit 'Edit Account Setup'
Click on next next next next next
(hide key board on Automatic Send/Receive screen)
Hit 'Advanced Settings'
When deleting messages: (drop down menu)
You can set it there to not delete the messages from the server
Hope this helps

Thank you for your answer. However, I only have the two options described in my first post. Can you see a third option there?
err.. oops. Just checked again
I could have sworn it was there!
Sorry mate. guess that was on the P1 or something.. not sure.
This might not be a feasible solution, but ... just a thought..
You could set it to keep the messages only for the last 4 or 5 days..
that way, they won't be on your phone, but will be on your server.
A POSSIBLE workaround.. definitely not a solution
Here is what I configured to use the diamond without loss of messages during their removal :
I created a special e-mail address to use with my mobile phone, like [email protected].
And I set up a redirect additional for all my messages to it.
Now, I can delete all my messages without erasing the ones on my main account.
Try to go to "tools" - "option". Click the account you need to edit. Click "send/receive schedule" - "advance settings" - "when deleting messages" dropdown menu.....

Same thing. Just the two options.
Delete from Server.. or Move to Server Trash
OK, I think I've got it. It all boils down to the fact that the default Gmail setup is IMAP. If you change that to POP3 (using the instructions from Gmail) you will be able to delete your mails on the phone only.
It would be nice if someone could confirm this. It certainly seems to be working for me.
EDIT: WORKS! I get "Keep them on server" now.
The problem is related to the gmail server own rules. I have just made a test account and there is no "keep on server" option on the WM mail client. On my other account (my own domain/server) there is no problem.
You could use another mail provider (hotmail, live) for example.

Turns out it actually is IMAP vs POP3. While IMAP is generally better, when you do something locally (on the phone) it is as if it was done on the server (a disadvantage in this case).
The key is to fool Diamond into not recognizing Gmail, which means giving the address as [email protected][B]gm[/B].com, then put all the POP3 settings.
On the other hand, I've noticed it will only download the unread messages...
On my Windows Mobile 5, I had my Hotmail account in my Outlook. It looked just like any other email account. Now with WM6 on my Touch Pro, when I try to set up my Hotmail account, it just opens the web browser and take me to the Hotmail website, so I must log in there to get my emails. Just like any other webmail.
Is there a way to get Hotmail in my Outlook on WM6?
Have you tried logging into Messenger on the device? It should take you to the Windows Live setup screen, then select sync email (I disabled the sync contacts thing since it messed up my contacts). Hotmail should appear in your mail accounts then
Great! Thanks a lot, it worked
heya, I'm a first time wimo user and i tried to do the stuff you mentioned above, but it didn't work. I got into messenger, but it takes me straight to my contacts list. apart from that i couldn't find the option to sync the contact list. I accessed the messenger software through messages/messenger

While you were setting up your Messenger account there should be a screen that asks if you want to syncronise your Hotmail contacts and emails to your device. If you missed that you might need to re-do the signup process again.
actually, this does work but if u log out of messenger, the mailbox also disappears... hummm...... so its not a perm solution.
I encounter a similiar as you do. I have dl another version Windows Live from http://wl.windowsmobile.com, but you have to remove the HTC PRO existing version which have IM function, this one dl does not. [I use Ebuddy to connect my MSN instead.]

Hotmail location
I checked through my installed programs and the only messaging client i can find is the one with msn aol and yahoo bundled together. is it possible i need to instal a cab to get the messenger w/ hotmail working, or iam i not looing in the correct directory on the fuze?
Try Windows Live Hotmail for Windows Mobile
http://www.gowindowslive.com/Mobile/Landing/HMforWM/Default.aspx?Locale=en-US
the link should take you to the download of the program. Once you install you can set up your hotmail account in you phone and it should go through a process of accepting terms and conditions, etc and then it should appear normally in your phone.
Hope this works.

Does this work if you want to add more than one Hotmail accounts?
You can also use the beta @ http://www.seven.com which will let you have several hotmail accounts. I use it, and it works pretty well.
been trying it from last night but everytime I try to set up the email it keeps saying
Server busy...The server is busy now. Please try again. (108)

OK... before someone berates me for "not searching"... let me say off the bat that I've searched both these forums and the Internet in general for the answer to the following, but haven't quite found the answer... so here goes.
I am a happy owner of a Kaiser (is there such a thing as a "happy" owner of a Kaiser? ), but I have one question that's been bugging me regarding the number of Pocket Outlook email accounts that I'm able to pull.
Currently I'm using the SEVEN software for direct-push of a couple of my MSN accounts and my hospital email account. I also have my ActiveSync-sync'ed Outlook main folder, and three other accounts, all of them external POP accounts.
Counting? That's seven accounts. Now, when I try to add another account to the SEVEN software's lineup, I get an error message saying I've reached the max number of accounts. BUT... when I to into PO directly, and try to add another account directly, the menu option for adding another account is NOT there...
Either way, it appears (correct me if I'm wrong) that Pocket Outlook (PO) is capped at 7 accounts total, and won't let you add any more.
Now, someone will undoubtedly say, "just use QMAIL" or something like that. But I tried QMAIL and I don't like how it operates. I've tried the FEW other external-to-Microsoft 3rd-party software out there and don't like any of them because of 1) they don't allow pushed mail properly, 2) they're too hard to set up, or 3) the GI sucks.
Since the registry is the golden-boy for practically everything, I was thinking that somewhere in the registry there has to be a "number of accounts" key... but I've searched as much as I can, and haven't found it.
What I'd like to know from anyone out there, is there a way to increase the maximum number of PO accounts, and what is the method for doing so (if it exists)?
Thanks for keeping awake for my tome...

Just as a quick update to my own question, I did knock out the email sync in ActiveSync, and the "New Account" option in the Tools menu came back -- but when clicked on, it gives me the following error:
"You have reached the maximum number of accounts. One account is reserved for Outlook. If you want to set up outlook to synchronize with an Exchange Server, click OK"
BTW, I'm using the stock ROM 1.62.502.0, de-ATT'd (you know, the hard-reset, then tap soft-reset button).

I don't believe there is a way to overcome this limit.

Hello,
I've created a MS Exchange account on my LG 2x. It worked fine - emails arrived, calendar sync worked.
Then it suddenly stopped refreshing. Clicking Refresh in Email app did nothing at all.
I've tried to change the settings, but there is no Account Settings button for Exchange account.
Questions:
1) Why would it suddenly stop working?
2) How to edit account settings for Exchange account?
Thanks.

1) Don't know, any number of reasons, but it happens frequently.
2) Phone settings/Accounts and synchronisation. (You said you tried this, I remember it was hard to find, but it is somewhere in there.)
It's my advice however to ditch the LG Email client completely as en exchange-client, it has numerous bugs. I delete the lgemail.apk and instead push email.apk from CM7. It just works.
ask you admin - maybe there are some changes on server side?
never have used default mail client. mail clients on modacos roms and cm7 works good for me. also for me there is another server address on phone used than in outlook.
There wasn't any changes - all other Android and Nokia phones still work.
I know that I have to go to Settings - Accounts and Sync. There I select my Exchange account, but all I can do is check/uncheck Sync Contacts and Sync Calendar and also Remove Account. No any kind of settings anywhere..
I installed the bloody thing again, and here's what you do.
o Enter the LG e-mail app.
o Press menu
o Press settings
o Press the account name at the top. (I remember this was confusing the first time I used it, it just looks like a heading, not a menu-item.)
You'll find the log-in settings at the bottom.
There you go.
(Sorry for suggesting it was in Settings/Accounts, where it should have been, guess I confused it with the regular e-mail app. It was from memory only - whenever I install a new ROM the lg email client is the first thing to go.)
