Hi all,
I'm having an issue with TF3D's email tab - it's displaying that I have an unread email in my Inbox where in reality I have no unread emails!
I have tried to remove all of my Email accounts, disabled TF3D, soft-reset, then re-enabled TF3D... It's still displaying 1 unread email!
This has occurred with a few ROMs - Dutty's DPT ROM v2, Walshieau's Elite 3.0 and the Stock 1.93.xxx.x.
If anyone knows how to fix this, could u pls let me know. I don't want to flash to another ROM because my current ROM is perfectly fine apart from this one bug. TIA!
Have you tried deleting the email account with the ghost email, and setting it up again? A bit less work and less drastic than a reflash.
All the new ROMs automatically create a "Windows Tips and Tricks" email when you create a new account. Go into the Inbox (using Messaging and not TF3D) and delete this email or mark it as read. That should fix it.

Yeah I realized that too, but I didn't know where I could find it - thanks though; I hard reset instead.
email not displayed
I have a similar problem, my diamond says no accounts when i have an account, its an OMA, account if I click on messages i can see the email but in touchflo it says no account... I have tried messing around with the phone but i can not get it to display the envelope like before, any ideas, please advise...

This happened to me too today. What had happened was that Shozu dropped an email in the main messaging inbox. Deleted that and good to go. Well, good to go after having to re-add my accounts since I deleted those thinking something was "stuck" with one of them
I had this earlier today and after much faffing about i managed to sort this, i believe this is a fault with windows mobile and not touch flo. what i did was go to settings go to the personal tab > today > items tab under that i removed touchflo 3d and enabled messaging instead. go back to the homescreen and it should display 1 new email click on that and then delete the message. then reverse the process to get touchflo 3d back. hope this helps

I also had this problem and was fixed following the above steps. As it said somewhere in this thread MS Outlook creates an email 'Tips and tricks..' and in my case was an unread email. Deleted the email and everything is ok now.

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.

Hi guys,
Im running wm6.1 on my kaiser. As we all know on the htc today screen, theres the 3 buttons below the clock... email, text, and missed calls.
i get a txt, the middle icon shows ive got 1 message. i click that, opens up my sms/mms inbox... read txt etc... close screen.
i then get an email, the left icon shows ive got 1 message. i click that, but for some unknown reason, it loads up the sms/mms inbox. I have to then switch to my email account using the drop down menu.
This never used to happen, but it does it all the time now...
Also, i created a "new account" using my gmail address, instead of using the "outlook E-mail" account... could this be causing the problem? i dont want to have to flash my ROM again, but id like to get this all working properly.
Finally, i just downloaded Slithers CUBE (SCLPC w/FTouchFLO)... and i cannot find where i need to link the email button to in the config. yes, i am a noob, but id still v much appreciate any kind of help with this matter.
thanks one and all
I believe that the Email Icon is linked to the outlook account specifically and not to a user created account (Like Gmail). If it does not find a valid outlook account then it may open up the last accessed account (E.g SMS/MMS).
Hopes this helps.
i've just created/edited the outlook account so that its got all the details etc from my gmail address... but for some reason, it comes up saying error syncronising...

While you are inside the "Message" application (I do not know the correct English word as I'm using a Norwegian version of WM), you can use the left/right button to switch between SMS/MMS, Outlook and other additional e-mail accounts.

Hey Bjorn (sorry, i cant find the propper "o")
I can see what you mean, but my issue is more that it should simply load straight into the email account. And now that ive deleted the account i created, it does just that - loads straight into the outlook account.
However, i keep getting the "error syncing" message whenever i try to download my gmail email.

My intention was just to give you an easier method for switching between your accounts, as this method should be more user-friendly than using drop-down menus
/Bjørn
Try this:
1) Download and run KaiserTweak
2) Find the 'HTC Application' branch.
3) Change the 'HTC Home e-mail button' to 'Open default Mailbox (Advised)'
I've had this same problem in the past. Essentially when you push the e-mail button and it's not working correctly it will open up the messaging app wherever it already is. So if you have SMS open (but minimised/off screen), then pushing the e-mail button will simply open it there.

Im afraid i've been one step ahead... kaisertweak was one of the first things i downloaded... originally, i did have the problem with it loading up the "choose accounts" messaging thing, and i changed that using the kaisertweak settings...
but im afraid, one day on, that i still cant download my email using the outlook account i searched lots yesterday, and found that people either used activesync to jumpstart the emails, or that it just randomly worked the next day. But ive tried both, and both have failed
please, someone, help me get my mail...
billgatessucks
Have exactly the same problem. Did you find the solution?
nope, no solution...
i was fed up of not having emails, so ive remade a new email account and i just have to switch...
tho i am looking into ways of remapping the softkeys so that one is assigned directly to going into your email inbox, and the other to start a new sms... two vital functions that dont seem to exsist on the kaiser
I have a friend that has a tilt and someone supposedly upgraded her firmware. This did not delete all of her files but it did wipe out her email settings. She created a new email account with the same settings but in her today screen it shows two email accounts. The new one which functions perfectly when new email comes in the indicator shows and when you check all mail the indicator leaves.
Then theres the second one, which existed before the firmware update. It just shows 1 unread message constantly. If you select it, it just take you to the main messaging screen. Is there anyway to remove this via the registry a specific folder so this ghost email account does not show up with doing a hard reset.

Tell her to go to the messaging app and check the system folder. It has an inbox also. I got that when I installed BBC and removed and reinstalled about 10 times before I actually found out what it was.
Hope this helps.

I have also the system folder for BBC. Since a few days it shows 1 unreal mail which I can't delete. Do you know where I can delete this ghost mail?
Hello, I ask you for help!
I have deleted some email accounts from my htc touch diamond, and I left only my lead account. The problem is that in the email window of the touchflo 3d i have left all the envelope icons of the deleted emails account but i can't delete it....so i have a lot of unused icons.....how can i delete it??
Please help me!
Thank you very much
Please help
Someone could help me please?
be kind....
I need help about this question
Had the same problem, could get a fix, did a hard reset.
no haRD
I can't loose all my data again.....before make an hard reset i wait for more suggestions
I have the same problem, I installed Windows live, subsequently removed it, but the icon is still there.. bit weird.
Same problem here.
Also I've noticed that I can see my old emails (suposedly deleted from outlook) on the preview of tf3d, although on Outlook I can't see (obviously) the deleted accounts and it's messages.
My guess is that when you delete an account, the messages of that account aren't deleted and touchflo not knowing that you have removed that account keeps displaying those messages. Maybe a possible solution is to locate the folder were messages from deleted accounts are kept and really delete them.
solution?
I am getting the same problem. Any possibility of resolving this issue, without a hard reset?
After doing a hard reset for a different problem I put my backed up info back on (using the one created by htc) and since that time I've had this same problem. Did anyone figure this out yet? I really need to get rid of my gmail account to set it up correctly with imap instead of pop but I can't remove it because of this problem. Any help/links provided will be appreciated.
Does anyody have solution for this? After flashing new rom i wanted to restore my sms by sprite backup and it restored also some other mail accounts which are now stuch on touch flo screen and i cant remove them. I dont want to do hard reset again and loose my sms messages.
Also how do you restore your sms messages avoiding problems like this?

this is what i used to take care of the ghost accounts: SKTools
Found a FIX!!!
Here is what I used after doing quite a bit of Forum digging. This utility will repair the "Ghost" email accounts showing up in your TF3D, and make them re-appear in your list of accounts (Start/Messaging/Messaging). It has made me a happy camper...
Just copy the EXE to your device and run it. More information about this can be obtained here: http://www.etenblog.com/2008/02/14/recover-lost-email-accounts/
The program is pretty self-explanatory, so you shouldn't have any trouble recovering your ghosted accounts.

Email icons
I had the same problem if your talking about the outlook account, and when you click and hold on the account it has a delete option but not clickable,... if this is what your talking about you must reset your active sync settings for your user, delete all of them, then re set it up as new account, but do not include sync for mail, that removed all the email accounts on my phone except hotmail, which i wanted to keep, hope this helps
Guys,
With my tilt and TF2D if I had more than 4 e-mail accounts then I would get a down arrow below the 4th account in the accounts tab. So when I wanted to get to the other accounts I could scroll down.
Now with my Fuze (Both AT&T ROM and HTC Rom) I see 2 problems. First when I add the 5th account to the accounts list I get an error in Manilla.exe. the account gets added but I cannot select it from the accounts tab. I have to go to the tab, tap inbox and then pull down the list of accounts at the top and select the new account.
The second is that TF3D doesn't seam to support the down arrow for more then 4 accounts. Based on the error I am getting when I add the 5th and 6th accounts it seams that the code is still there and trying to work but fails.
Anyone got a fix for this? Any help would be great!
Hate to say this, but try a different e-mail client? Something like Flexmail for instance is superior to poutlook in every way, with the only downside (to it and everything else out there) being that it's not integrated with TF3D. With that many e-mail accounts you'll probably want something more advanced anyway.

I know I can use another client I was just hoping that some of these other great minds on here could point me in the right direction to make the OEM tools work. I know they did in TF2D and I'm sure there is a way to get the same result from TF3D.
Anyone?! It would be greatly appreciated.
4 mail accounts only???
hey all i have a cab (wont say from where) that i think will correct this issue. It is a cab for the EPIX but i think it might do the trick.
4th email fix
HOPE THIS WORKS! i looked around and i see where and how to upload files. Here you go and i hope this works.
Thanks justpe8709,
Can you also provide the link to the thread so that I can read more about what this cab does? That way I can see if this is what I need without having to clean up my phone from another cab install that didn't uninstall correctly.
Thanks!
well i got this .cab from a ummmmm non public site. so this is the only thing I have for you. If you want to message me your # i can call you and let you know more info on it.
