email headers ok, but no mail !!!! - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hi,
Anyone experienced this: Email was working fine, but from one day to the other, no way to read e-mail anymore.
All mail header are displayed correctly in the mailbox, but when opening email, I just have a blank screen and no text at all. This is also true for SMS when trying to read from the mailbox. However, I still can read the SMS from the TF3 interface, but not from the mailbox.
So I still have some hope e-mail text is stored somewhere but cannot be displayed for some reasons...
Would be great if someone could help before I get out of patience and do hard reset !!!!!!
Thanks a lot to the community - this forum really helps to get the Diamond usable.

Mail Notification Incorrect

Hi all,
quick question today.
On my HTC Home & SPB Phone Suite, it says that I have 1 unread mail, no unread SMS and no missed calls.
The problem is, everything has been read, there are no unread emails. To complicate matters, even if I get new mail and SMS it still says, 1 unread email.
I am however able to identify what is read and what is unread in the messaging client.
Perhaps there is a way for me to reset the count in the device database or something of that nature?
Looking forward to some advice.
Thanks in advance.

Why can't I create and send new email?

For some reason when I tap on 'new' to create a new email message, nothing happens (i.e. there is no response at all). I am able to receive messages. It has only just started doing this, so i wonder if i have somehow disabled this function. Any advice will be gratefully received.
Hi, I have the same problem. It is also not possible to send a response for a mail (entering text is OK but pressing the "Send"-Button does not send, it just "beeps" and nothing happens.)
So it is only possible to send a Mail to a contact in the adressbook (sending to another mail address is only this way: create a mail with an existing contact and then change the "To:" to the right mail).
This misbehavior depends on the Mail-Account: with my Exchange its NOT working, with Hotmail its OK (both on the same PDA). I think it a switch in the registry? (Policies?)
Since now I have no solution (but I have not searched very deeply).

WM 6.1 and group (multiple recipient) txt msg burden

I've come across an burdening issue sending a txt with multiple recipients. Though the grouped chat style text messaging is an incredible advantage, there are some cons and i'm wondering if they can be fixed somehow.
Because of the chat style text messaging, your first outgoing message gets coped to your inbox. Is there any way for the first outgoing message to NOT be copied to your inbox?
This poses an issue for when you are sening a mass/group text message. For example, if i send out "Happy New Year" to 50 people in one text, i get 50 outgoing copies in my inbox.
Suggestions?
It doesnt really get copied, The threaded sms app just shows that you started a conversation with those recipients. I do see what your saying though, and i guess it can get somewhat annoying having all those open conversations in your inbox, BUT now you only have those 50 or so threads in your inbox as opposed to (like me) thousands of messages to scroll through. Plus as an added benefit you can see who replied in an orderly fashion. I for one would like the option to turn sms threading on/off, but I guess this is progress...

Well as much as i love it, i would like to see that the program doesn't show the started conversation on the first initial text message. It should show it when they reply. This would solve the group text messaging issue

If it's even something that can be edited... might be part of the program's code.
I'd like to be able to move the messages into another folder but cant seem to find out a way to do it as the option isnt highlighted

Alerts for incoming e-mails - specific address

Hey...
I asked this question a while back in the PPC6700 forums when I had that device on WM5...never found an answer. I'm hoping something has changed in that time frame.
I want to be able to have audible alerts for incoming e-mail, but ONLY from specific senders. Using SMS is not an option.
So, for instance if I get an email from [email protected] it will ring an alarm (at 3am and wake me up) but if is an e-mail from anyone else it will stay silent.
Any way to do this, even if I have to purchase an additonal application?
thx!
I realize that its name, Photo Contacts Pro, is a bit misleading, but this is a very powerful/flexible program that will do exactly what you're looking for. Take a look at its incarnations at the vendor's website and decide for yourself -- there's alot there to read:

Thanks Mark,
Are you 100% sure that this application can do what I ask?
I looked on their website and their features list that you can assign distinctive Ring and SMS tones to different contacts. It doesn't mention anything about e-mail.
I would plan on using pocket outlook with push mail from an Exchange server...so I really think it would be the function of the mail client to differentiate one incoming e-mail from another. Maybe there is a more feature rich e-mail client that has this functionality?
If you have actually done what I have asked (distinctive alerts to specific EMAIL addresses), then I will download the demo and see what I can do...
thanks again!

Hate to disappoint but it will not do that. This software currently operates on incoming caller id (sms has that also) not email address. I did suggest the use of email to them in addition to sms so they may someday do some work on it but not now.
Although I don't currently know of anything that will do what you want (which doesn't mean it isn't available) you MAY be able to get around the limitation.
I would try having the exchange server fire out a short note or even a forward of the email to your phone's sms address. They all have the ability to get the email as sms albeit it would be chopped to 160 chars. Now, if you can identify the source of the incoming sms via caller id you can indeed use photocontacts by creating a special profile with silence being the default for all contacts except the exchange server forwards. This way the incoming sms will set off the alarm which will tell you to check your email.
Hey, better than nothing, no?
eh..yeah thanks NY... I was afraid of that answer.
What we did for our alerting system previously was have the alerts sent to the phone mail/SMS address and all other e-mails to our normal exchange. This way we would turn on SMS alerts and turn off e-mail. It does work, but not the ideal solution. It would be so simple to have this functionlity in pocket Outlook as a "rule" too bad they haven't gotten there yet!
thanks
having that kind of selection hasn't gotten that far yet, don't forget this is a pocket pc with phone capabilities

I'm aware of a couple of programs that will alert based on email sender, subject, etc. The first is Message Alerts, and the second is Watchflag. I've never used Watchflags before, but it looks pretty good. I used Message Alerts back when I had a RIM Blackberry. It worked perfectly.
Try also phoneAlarm V2.0 not 1.66 from http://www.pocketmax.net
This is a new option in V2.0
Beautiful guys thanks! All 3 look like they will do what i want (from description) I will try them out.
thanks again!
bengalih, thanks for the link. Question for you, did you ever try one of these programs? I guess my request is a little different than yours was in that I am not trying to notify by email address but simply by email account. So one notification for my Yahoo, another for my daughters and yet another for work. If one of these apps can accomplish this, then that would be great. Thanks again.
Email notification
This is only mildly related, but I want my new email notification to show the sender and/or subject line and not just "You have ## new email messages..."
I can't find any notification settings that would adjust this. Any suggestions?

Marked Emails As Read

Is there a way to mark a new email as read from the Touch Flo email area. It does it when you read a text message.
good question!
drove me mad today when i setup my email account.
The best work around i had was to let it download everything, then open the last mail (in inbox) then press the left key on the dpad to scroll back through emails till i got to the front.
96 emails later all were marked read. It doesnt take that long because the diamond renders them very quickly. Maybe 1 second an email, and you only really need to do it the first time u sync.
This little CAB adds an option to your inbox to "mark all as read". Don't know where it came from, but whoever made it, priceless stuff.
