Email count for Outlook E-mail ?

Hi,
Dose any know how i can get an Email count for Outlook E-mail ?
i am using wibar on my Tytn II and i have sorted out how to get the email count for two which are "gmail" and "fastmail" but as you know the Tytn has to check these every 30min or so (what ever time has been set) but i setup an account with mobipush which uses Outlook and that why i need the count for it if its possible.
i have used the method below from another forum
1. Create a shortcut (wherever) to \windows\tmail.exe.
2. Modify that shortcut so that it reads"
"\windows\tmail.exe" -service "AccountName"
AccountName should be exactly as it show up in your Accounts list. (When you're in tmail, click menu, then "Go to" and use the name as you see it there. I'm using this trick for POP accounts - I'm not sure if this will work for "Outlook E-mail". For Text Messages, of course, you use "SMS" and for Multimedia messages you use "MMS".)
Once you have the shortcut, just specify the filename for the .LNK file (e.g. "\My Documents\gmail.lnk") as the command for your (WAD) shortcut.
You can use the same principles to create a Text Object (which can sit on top of the icon that takes you to that e-mail account) which will show the unread message count for that account. Just create a text object with
Object Type: Custom Text
Text to display: %Unread:AccountName% (as above) and
Tap Action: .LNK file as above
now i did try this but with the account name of "Outlook E-mail" and "Outlook" but none of those seem to work.
if any of you clever members could get this working i would be very grateful.

Delete an e-mail account - how?

Using the standard HTC ROM.
Ok, I've set up an e-mail account on the phone that is working fine. If I need to, how do I delete this account? I can no way to do this and there's a distinct lack of info in the manual on how to delete this sort of thing - plenty on how to set it up!
Regards and thanks

While in TouchFLO 3D move across to the EMAIL icon. Push the MENU option in the bottom right of the screen. Select ACCOUNTS and then ACCOUNTS. This will bring you to the MESSAGING screen which shows you SMS / MMS at the top, then any email accounts you have then SETUP EMAIL.
Move down using the dpad (hardware buttons) and when you have highlighted the account you wish to delete press the MENU option in the bottom right of the screen and choose DELETE.
Remember use the Dpad to highlight the email account you wish to delete. If you use your finger you will more than likely open the email account instead of just highlighting it.

Many thanks tomchap. The collective knowledge and experience on the www is amazing.

What if the account does not exist?
Ok, but what happens if the account is not listed there? I used Sprite Backup to backup the data on my old TyTN then tried to restore it on the Raphael. On the Mail tab of the TouchFlow the email account is listed (it appears as "PDA - Email" - just as it was named on the TyTN) - but I can not open any message and I can not delete the account either - because it is not listed.
Any ideas?

Outlook Mobile Delete question

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...

Installing mobile Gmail on Tilt

Hello! I'm new to this forum. Seeing as how most of my questions have been answered here from Google searches, I decided to join this forum.
I'm trying to install Gmail mobile from (m.google.com/mail) onto my Tilt running WM6.1. I'm not running any fancy ROM. Just the latest ROM found off the HTC website. During the install, I keep getting this error:
gmail.jad?dc=gwm?ver=v1.50.1193 cannot be found at this URL. -1 Please
contact your operator for more information.
Does anyone know how to fix this? Thank you!

requires java since that's a java file.get the midlet manager or other versions of that app

I already have a midlet manager, I think. I've got this installed on my PDA: "Emsertec Jbed Build ID: 20080428.2.1". If that isn't the right one, could you suggest a better one?

Anyone who has run into this problem able to help?

I just downloaded it with PIE.

Sorry, you're talking to a newbie here. What is PIE?

pocket internet explorer

I can download the "gmail.jad" file. But I cannot install it. I get the error included in my first post.

open the java machine and then point it at the .jar file.

I did and that is the error I received during install.

try this. I had the same problem as you and this worked...
Install the JBed3dMod_RU_FIX.zip file Java Midlet Manager from this post.
Then, install the Gmail app to the jbed you just installed.

Thank you, it worked! But I don't see a Gmail icon anywhere. I have to launch the new "JBed3dMod.." app and then from there launch Gmail. Is there a way to launch the Gmail app directly?
And what is this "JBed3dMod.." app?

If you have problems creating the shortcut, the easiers way to do it is on your ppc using total commander. create the text file containing your shortcut parameters and save it as gmail.txt then rename gmail.txt as gmail.lnk and copy the shortcut to windows\start menu\program files
it will then show up in your program files and you can even assign it to a button if you like

That is the new Java app/midlet manager that you installed that allows the Gmail java app to work.

yep.
try putting this code in a .lnk file:
Code:
1#"\Program Files\Jbed3DModTest\JBed.exe", -run s0_

"run s0" is the command for the application number if you have more than one java aplication you will have to find out which number yours is (they should be ordered from top to bottum starting from zero on...)
and although it shouldn't matter to much on this because it isn't a long code 1# should really be 48# that number desribes how many characters are in the action you want to preform

Thank you! I created the shortcut, though the instructions weren't exactly correct for my situations. After fiddling around I got the shortcut working.
I noticed it uses the same icon as the "JBed3dMod.." app. This might be asking for too much, but is there a way I could assign a different icon for my newly created shortcut?

icons...
This is a relatively hard topic to find & understand from this forum. But through a bit of patience, it can be done.
Here you can read how to change icons for folders:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=339405&highlight=icons
For icons for individual files, like the Gmail .lnk file I sort of learned by myself (read ^ that thread first):
Select an icon from your .dll
Select a setting or program to link to
Then, simply create a .lnk file that is structured like this example [ex. for Gmail]:
Code:
1#"\Program Files\Jbed3DModTest\JBed.exe", -run s0_,17?\Windows\custicons.dll,-186
again, it takes some practice + patience.

Why not just use the built-in e-mail client?
Why even bother with the java applet?
I just use the Pocket Outlook (or whatever the default messaging / SMS / e-mail app is) and set it up for IMAP with GMail's servers:
Username: [email protected]
Password: your password
Incoming server: imap.gmail.com
Outgoing server: smtp.gmail.com
Outgoing server requires authentication: Yep
Require SSL for Incoming e-mail: Yarr
Require SSL for Outgoing e-mail: Aye
Account Type: IMAP4
Use the default settings for all the other options, if you wish..
Then, if you want to do the GMail "Archive" action:
..move the message to the "All Mail" folder
If you want to do the GMail "Report Spam" action:
..move the message to the "Spam" folder
No fun GChat stuff here, but otherwise gets the basic job done.. No download or JVM needed
Hope this helps someone! Also, this could apply to any E-mail client (as long as it supports IMAP4) and not just M$PO.

Thanks for the information on the icons. I guess that's too much trouble for me right now. Was hoping there would be an easy way. I guess I'm just lazy .
I was using the built in email client first with the IMAP4 settings. But the two main reasons I prefer to use the Gmail client is because I can view everything by conversation and I can easily see my starred messages.

How to delete an email account on Topaz?

I've delete the "account outlook" by activesync (unchecking the email sync) but I cannot delete the other accounts that I have setup directly on Diamond2 (mobileme and Gmail)!
It makes me change them but not eliminate completely! How can i do?
I hope in the knowledge of someone who says to me: "use total commander and delete the file xxxxx point!"

In account's options where there is: "Tap an account to change settings", I hold above the account to delete but nothing happens and when I leave it appears a screen which says:
Contents:
Edit Account Settings
Schedule Send / Receive
Download size settings ....
but no reference to cancel account! and below I just choice only Ok or Cancel? Ufffff ..

In the mail tab, I click Menu-> Accounts-> Account.
Selected the account, below there is "Delete" but is gray and not allow me to click!
That's strange!
(On Xperia I can do this but cannot on the Diamond2!! )
