I have noticed a really weird email bug in WM6.1 which probably exists in all previous versions.
Basically...
I have a hosted exchange email account with push mail and only ever sych email with this over a 3G wireless internet connection.
I have never been able to get all of the folders in my mailbox to synch with Kaiser. Only the inbox ever worked.
I noticed then that all my folders are actually in the root of the mailbox and not in the inbox folder. I then dragged some of them to the inbox folder to create sub folders. These also did not synch at all, even when selected under 'manage folders' in mobile outlook.
I then created a sub folder in the inbox folder which had a unique name. It worked! Any mail moved to this folder was synching to my Kaiser.
I then tried creating a sub folder in inbox with the same name as a folder in root and it wouldn't synch either.
So to clarify, if anyone else is having problems trying to synch folders in their exchange mail box...
1) Create a sub folder in inbox
2) Make sure it does not share a name with a root folder
And all is good!
This is annoying but seems to work!
If anyone knows another way round it I'm all ears!
1) = BAD
Root {
Folder1 (won't sync)
Inbox
}
2) = BAD
Root {
Folder1 (won't sync)
Inbox {
Folder1 (won't sync)
}
}
3) = Good
Root {
Folder1 (won't sync)
Inbox {
Folder2 (will sync! ..only if created from scratch and not dragged)
}
}
By the way, I used outlook web access on a PC to create the folders.

Hi Everyone
First post so please go easy.
I hae set up my new tytnII for email, with two pop3 accounts and set it to synch with my outlook email on my laptop.
What I would like to do is to set the device to merge the pop3 email accounts into my outlook section and folder lists so that i can download emails on the device and then when i synch it all matches up. Otherwise I will get duplication on the device I think.
If I tap and hold on an email in a pop3 account folder i can move it to another folder in the same account folders but not to other pop3/outlook folders.
Can this be done?
Thanks
Tom
You won't get duplication. The e-mail you sync from your PC is entirely separate from e-mail you download directly. So you'll get each message exactly once on each platform that you pull it from. You'll probably want to make sure that the TyTN II is set not to delete messages when it retrieves them. But the sync won't cause the message to show twice on the PC - it's treated as a completely different message in a completely different data store.
Hi
I have been looking into this a little further and have found that if I run my email account by IMAP settings this synchronises with my online email account and so far works very well.
I have also done this with my outlook email on my laptop and this makes life much easier!!
So everytime I synch with either device with the IMAP settings regardless of where I read the email it changes its status etc on each device and online.
Awesome.
Cheers for your help.

I've gone through many threads on e-mail synchronization here. I found no solution to my problem - and I'm not even sure if I understand my problem well.
1. On my desktop computer I'm using Outlook with POP3 account (no Exchange server).
2. I'd like to sync my Kaiser (mail, contacts, calendar, tasks) with Outlook on my desktop computer.
3. I'd also like to be able to check e-mail (my POP3 account) using Kaiser (3G, WiFi) when I'm not at the office.
4. On my device I can only configure separate accounts for synchronization with Outlook ("Outlook mail") and for downloading e-mail from POP3 account.
So I cannot have those mails in one place - am I right?
5. When I send e-mail directly through POP3 account, it will appear on Kaiser only in Sent mail under this account.
So none of the messages I send directly through POP3 account will appear in "Outlook mail", synchronize and appear on my desktop Outlook?
If the answer to both bold questions is yes, then it sucks...
Dump POP3, use IMAP...
IMAP Clients (including Pocket Outlook & all desktop versions of Outlook) can be set to save a copy of all sent messages to a particular folder.
POP3 doesn't allow for this.
The way I solved it was to use a third party exchange server. The server "pulls" the emails from the POP servers you specify, then pushes them to Outlook on both the phone and your PC. Likewise, anything sent goes through the exchange server where it is kept in the sent folder, accessible from the PC or your phone.
No mail in "Sent mail" on Kaiser

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?
I searched - please believe me but didn't find a solution for my problem.
I do NOT get an entry of sent messages with my tilt in the SENT folder though the option is active regardless if I use the corporate outlook or my private email accounts (gmail and roadrunner).
Any idea or solution,
Strange enough SENT messages are stored in the corp. outlook sent folder (which I can check through the PC at work or ms webmail) and the sent message comes to the INBOX in gmail.
I'm puzzled

You have to tell your Pocket Outlook to Synch with your Exchange Server
Open Active Sync on your PC
Wait 5 minutes (allow time for sync, etc)
Click "Select Folders"
Make sure "Sent Items" has a checkmark
It DOES sync with zero problems with the corp. outlook but does NOT create any entries on the tilt sent folder though they are created at the server.
i have the same problem with my gmail with dutty rom
In Pocket Outlook, have you gone into Menu > Tools > Manage Folders and ticked to synchronise your Sent Items? When I first set up my Exchange and IMAP e-mails, this wasn't ticked by default so the folders always looked blank.
Edit: Just realised this is exactly what MajorD suggests, just from the phone rather than the PC. Still might be worth trying.
OK, for outlook it works COOL T H A N K S but in gmail I still get my sent message in the inbox though I can live with that - it's just one tab-hold-delete...
Hi there,
I received my Diamond yesterday and configured it completely. I also made the settings for my IMAP mail account. Now I set that it should automatically check emails every 30 minutes. The problem is I have a lot of subfolders on my IMAP account. It seems that touchflo3d only notices new mails in the INBOX folder. I understand that it can only display mails from one folder in the envelope but I at least want to get a notification (on the touchflo3d mail icon on the bottom) when a new email arrived in one of the subfolders.
Anyone noticed that behaviour? Btw. I using standard IMAP no push or something
Just click on the down-arrow next to the "Inbox" label on the top-left, and you should see a list of all the IMAP folders.
true...but I meant the little green number appearing in TFLO3D when you got a new unread emails. It currently shows only when a new mail is in INBOX but not in a subfolder
But I also noticed that sometimes Outlook doesn't show new emails even in the foldertree until I open the subfolder then the new email is shown. Seems like I have to investigate that further.
Bad IMAP support.
You will see, your IMAP folders are empty (at least with google imap it is).
Google makes all mails appear in Inbox too, so I see them unsorted on my device, but in Gmail everything is ok.
I have an email that has a calendar file attachment, extension .ice. When I open this under Gmail, it say "No app can open this attachment for viewing". I get similar result if I use CM9 mail client.
If I open the same email using LG email client, or save the file on the sdcard and open it using the file manager, Business Calendar Free successfully launch and import the data.
May I know is there any setting in Gmail that I can trigger such that Business Calendar Free is launched when I select the attached file?
Since I am on this topic, do you have any solution to read Outlook calendar to the phone? With Google not longer support sync, I am in a fix how can I sync my Outlook calendar to my phone. I just need one-way sync from outlook to phone.
Thanks in advance!
Anyone? Please? Or it is that I failed to explain the issue clearly?
