Hi guys,
I backup my mails and pim using sprite backup, and restored them after a hard reset. The thing is, my mail shows up in manila.exe but i cannot find it in messaging. Is there a way to delete it while retaining my smses or restore the account? I tried creating the account before restoring but it just deletes the account i created. And if i try creating an account under the same name it does not let me do so. Please help.
This is exactly my problem too.
Pls advise!
I have the same problem. Any one can help?

hey guys!
help! any ideas? i went into Windows/Messaging and there are files in it.. so how can i make the messaging app see my text messages again? (inbox, sent, drafts)
i don't care about my pop3 account, i have those mails on my server..
BUT! i also realized that even the outlook account (that i never use) disappeared!
WHY?
help!
The messages get stored on a file called pim.vol or cemail.vol usually found on the root folder of your Device Memory.
WM6 has the bug of disapperaing messages when these database get corrupted.
Try using PIM backup and see if you could backup the SMS if still found in database. You may even try zedsoft.net' SMS Organizer (freeware)
If you can see the messages thru the above applications, take a backup and try restoring.
Regards,
Carty..
a'ight

I seem to have a problem when restoring email information into the diamond using sprite backup.
This has happened a few times, not sure if its because I'm changing between ROMs.
Anyway, what is happening is that everytime I restore, both my email accounts show in TF3D, but when I try to open the inbox it won't load through WM.
When I go into accounts it does not show the email account also (ISP email account).
The two email accounts I have is hotmail and with my ISP, hotmail one works fine, but the ISP does not.
Any ideas on how to delete the accounts from TF3D??
I have the exact same problem! Everything is still there, every single mail, but the account for my gmail is gone! Can anybody help?
Same problem
Same here. 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 under "accounts".
SMS messages were restored ok - but the MMS and mail accounts all have the above problem. Any ideas?

Just flashed the new dutty from old 6.1 and restored my messages with Sprite Backup. Only problem is now I have 6 unread email messages in accounts that are not setup on the phone. I can not create the accounts due to "The account name entered is already assigned to another account." messages when I try to make them, and they do not appear in the list of accounts in Messaging. Any way I can fix this by deleting the registry entries or whatever is telling the phone that the accounts exist? Home keeps telling me I have 6 new emails.
this might help

Nuclear option
For people who are annoyed by the phantom accounts that can appear after restoring from a backup like Sprite backup there is always the nuclear option. I was wondering where all the extra Hotmail accounts were coming from on my Manila2d Mail tab. After reading this and other threads I discovered that they would have come back courtesy of the cemail.vol file from a backup. I couldn't get the mail repair application to restore the phantom accounts and the little application at the Sprite website didn't seem to work either.
Here's the strategy that worked for me:
1. Do a full backup of your phone with Spriteback up except for the mail ie make sure the top level mail checkbox is unchecked.
2. Do a backup (using PIMBackup or similar) of just your SMS messages.
3. Hard reset your phone.
4. Restore from the backup in step 1 and your phone should be restored but with no email accounts.
5. Restore your SMS from the backup in step 2. If you had threaded SMS enabled on your phone you will need to kill tmail.exe and disable threading before the restore. After the restore kill tmail.exe and re-enable. If you don't do this it messes up the inbox completely.
6. Manually set up your email accounts again.
It's a bit of a bore to do all this and not a particularly nice solution but it does work.
Cheers,
Ashley
hi, I'm trying to fix it with this program. but it says repair failed?

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
