Here's a tip for all who wants to hide the OUTLOOK account from the email tab in TF3D who have 4 email accounts like me
(thanks to Pietje_1985 for the hint)
Make a backup of all of your emails (eg use PIMBackup) to get them back if it's necessary
Connect your device to PC via ActiveSync
Open ActiveSync on your PC
Tools -> Options -> uncheck Email
confirm the dialogue box
Worked for me

Good question. And additionally the "System" folder for Blackberry Connect users...

At least..one thing I know is try to uncheck the email option @ ActiveSync on your pc....I think it is telling you then it will remove all email stored on your device via Outlook....not HOTMAIL!
I'm figuring out if there's another solution....I thought there was....I'll let you know, as soon as I found it

Thanks, but does that delete my other accounts too, or just Outlook eMail?

No I think it should only remove your OUTLOOK settings and no hotmail...
Try this as well....PPC PIM backup:
http://www.dotfred.net/
you can also make a backup first with this app and afterwards try to delete the account...if failed, you can always revert back....
Good luck

Well okay, but there's no need for me to delete Outlook email complety, I just want to remove it from the email tab of TF3D.
Maybe, there's an entry in one of the manila files, that can be hidden or deleted...

Aha...ok....I can't help you with the possible manila file...because I don't know if it excist....maybe you can ask NISSE about that...and can't you remove the mail settings at your message settings where you can also view your sms/mms etc??

No, not possible with Outlook. Already tried that...
Use TF3D config (search for it in the forums) and in the first option it will say tabs on the bottom and you will be able to hide or add, even rearrange your tabs for diamond.

LOL, I don't wanna hide the the whole eMail tab, I just want to hide OUTLOOK inside the tab. Please read carefully before posting
Just download tf3d config (search for it in the forums). Once you open up the first page will be tabs, there you check or uncheck whatever you want to see for the tf3d.

ps for any1 having trouble getting email but internet and weather works change network connection to Work from The Internet
in Advanced Server Settings
Got lucky and didn't even bother configuring email when I first connected to ActiveSync and so I never saw that email account in the TF3D tab.
However, I would like to remove the Sprint Picture Mail tab and account from the Mail TF3D tab as I don't use it and it pushes one of my other email accounts off the screen so I can't see the unread count. Any ideas?

Ye, I second that, anyone?
nope
Well I can't get rid of outlook mail on my Diamond. I'll keep trying
There is another way without connecting the phone to the pc, just go to activesync then press menu then options then untick E-mail, same way of doing it just saves looking for the all important cable!

As I have been sifting through the forum I have come across several threads about people wanting to know how to get rid of outlook e-mail from messages.
The e-mail I have set up on my kaiser is the same as my outlook on my pc, so when I sync I get duplicate e-mails and have to disable the option to sync mail with pc, but this still leaves the outlook account in messages.
Well here's how to get rid of it.
First you will need a registry editor, I recommend Resco Registry editor but others will work fine.
Then you will need to make a backup of the registry key we are going to delete. So open up your registry editor and go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Svc
Now in here you will find several folders(so to speak). These include Activesync, imap4, pop3, MMS1 and SMS.
Go into Activesync and their should be a key called "Friendly Name" this should say something like "Outlook" go back to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Svc then select the "Activesync" folder and use menu to export the folder as a .reg file (backup file) then select the "Activesync" folder again, but this time delete it.
Now close your reg editor and go into messages and the Outlook title should be replaced with the title Activesync. Just soft-reset your device and the Outlook mailbox including "Activesync" has now disappeared leaving just the e-mail accounts and other message accounts that you use whilst mobile.
Should you wish to restore this option just inport the .reg file you created into the registry and soft-reset and it'll be back.
Well I hope this helps. And quick thanks to all members of this forum for your continued support to the community and even helping the little guys.

Thanks! Great solution!
EDIT: Wiped out my outgoing MMS. Dropped registry backup back in and both MMS and Outlook Mail were back.

Why do you have duplicate emails? With an exchange server, your emails on device and in your pc's outlook will replicate - and without exchange they sync anyway?
What's the settings for MMS1? I don't have that in my registry.

Each of these folders represent an account within messages. So "Activesync" is "outlook" (used and updated when syncing with a pc version of outlook or using an exchange server), IMAP4 Corresponds to my (@btinternet.com/using imap), SMS is for SMS (go figure/lol), MMS1 (this can also just be MMS on some device/dependant on version of Arcsoft) POP is for my (@3mail) account and Hotmail is for hotmail (in juction with using Windows live).
So by deleting the "activesync" folder you are in effect deleting the information to display the account.
Also I deleted the imap4 folder (after making a backup of course of the reg entry) And soft-reset the device. It removed my @btinternet account with e-mails. But after i imported the .reg backup I made and soft-reset the device again the account returned with all e-mails intact and fully readable.
**Possibility for a freeware app to hide accounts that are private??? using a password to auto add/remore .reg to access accounts or maybe not. **
Thanks trying to bring something to those who have helped me... Thanks

Hi unwired, The reason I get duplicates is because I don't actually use an exchange server. I have my @btinternet.com account set up on both my home Supreme Pc, My laptop and my Kaiser. But when I used to cradle my kaiser with my pc (mainly for appointments) to update it used to download my e-mails from outlook on my pc to my kaiser. So in the outlook account on my kaiser would be all the e-mails from my pc version of outlook, then in my @btinternet.com account were the same e-mails that I collected whilst I was mobile.
So I needed access to my @btinternet account whilst mobile but in the outlook folder that wqould not let me sync so then i had to set up the other.
So i stopped it syncing with outlook messages on the pc and then decided to try and get rid of the outlook account, which is what i then proceeded to do!
Ok i am going to stop now before i start going round in circles..
But thanks for the question..

Your welcome mate. To be honest I think it was your comment about it I came accross the other day on the forum, which is one of the reasons I decided to post it. I'll try and help more if I can. I've just setup talking dial tones. so when I dial a number it says the number rather than beep. Thanks to grumps for the tones!! I think he's compiling an app to do this easier. But i couldn't wait and so set it up via the registry...
Oh www.htcclassaction.org reports we could have proper display drivers by the end of march!! So fingers crossed our Kaiser will fullfil their legacy!!

I don't have that registry file (obviously). I have the Shogun's Palm SMS threading program installed and lost my MMS'. The fix to install the Arcsoft composer and run an enablemms.cab never worked for me. I wonder if this is what it's trying to fix.

Yeah, sounds like it. If you post that .cab here. I'll take a look for you mate and see what I can come up with over the next week. Failing that I can take my .reg setting for the mms and possibly create a link to the default messaging app.
However my best mate has an o2 xda orbit and I installed WM6 on it but there is no 6.1 yet and he wanted threaded sms. So i installed Shogun's Palm sms. Now when he opens that app he does not have mms, however when I linked to the default messaging app that still contained his mms account and all the mms I sent him were waiting there for him.
So try this out and if you need my help just ask. You can PM me for my e-mail address if you want to send the .cab direct or ask for any other help. I am at work tomorrow(or should I say today) and am on a sleep over so i will check my pm but it'll be from my Kaiser.
Hope I could help..

I have used a .cab analyser on the enablemms.cab and it contains no registry entries at all (none will be added or removed(except for unistall info and platform.reg which I believe is more to do with os at a guess))
and contains these files:
CeSetup.dll in the \Program Files\Tools Folder
checkfile.exe in the windows folder
Platformxxx.reg in the windows folder
CM_Entries.xml in the windows folder
And
Customize.lst in the \Program Files\Tools folder
Let me know how you get on..

hi there again...
the trick works great, but I think, that I have a small problem in here.
after applying Your trick on my stock t-mob uk vario III everything went fine except loosing sound for new sms. even if I have ticked in my options to play sound and show message I can't hear or see any notification. only sign of new message is number of new messages in the middle of htc home plugin.
now.. I made a backup of that key before deletion, but...
I've deleted it.. '(-_-)
any chance for You to post that .reg file for me mate?? or if You have some other solution, then I would be more than happy to avoid hard reset.

No worries mate, I still have sound on my sms notifications although I did have to deselect play sound in sound and notifications and reset then re-select the play sound option. And it worked for me but I have a stock htc tytn II. I am at work on my kaiser at the moment and the browser won't let me add an attachment, so when I get my laptop out at 6 i'll post the .reg entry. Fancy deleting it !! lol.. Check back around 6.30. It'll def be on tonight pal..

Thanks for the update diigibio. I appreciate any help. How did you link your friend's phone to the default MMS messaging app? Or would it help if I tried to reapply registry settings?

The default messaging application remains untouched, especially when installing third party replacements such as SMS threading (IMSMS, Palm, Textr and so on). The default link goes to \Windows\tmail.exe.
The quickest way to do this is by using Resco File Manager. click on the tmail.exe and hold until (right-click) menu appears and click "send to" then choose "Start Menu as Shortcut".
Once this is done you can access it via the start menu or use the button app to map it to a button or use with a today screen plugin (spb etc) As when you install the third party app it either replaces the original shortcut with its own or alters the original link to point to the third party app.
Hope this is of some help...

Thanks! worked great for me on WM 6.1 I didn't see the active sync option before the restart either.
Hi,
Using Gmail IMAP4 on my Vario III. I can send messages fine, and see them in my sent mail folder at gmail.com, but I can't see them in the sent mail folder in Pocket Outlook on the phone (it's empty).
Is this right? If not, what am I doing wrong?
Thanks.
go to email options then to the tab at the bottom that says message and one of the options is keep copies of sent email in sent folder.
Thanks, but it's already checked.
I've had a similiar issue using Windows live(the application) to check my hotmail account. I can see all my folders to move stuff to, but I can't actually retrieve any of the messages from any folder other then the inbox. I can however move things from my inbox to wherever.
If I use PIE I can get to them through the browser however.
Sorry, forgot the solution. Go to Tools > Manage Folders > and select the folders to sync..
Nice one. Thanks.

Worked for me as well. I had the same problem. Thank you pyro.
worked, thank you guys, but i am still wondering why microsoft did not just make this enabled by default (automatically sync all folders for any pop/imap account) :-\
The sync option works on Gmail folders as well..
Tried to configure an account on the Outlook Email - Touch Diamond. (just for kicks.. wanted to try something)
Messed up.
Question is - how do I delete that account?
Any help?
P.s. I did try the search first, didn't find anything. Sorry if this is a repeat
there are several ways to reach to that page, one is to go to the mail tab on your main screen, press menu, go to accounts, select the account, press menu again and delete it
for ordinary email accounts:
Start/programs/messaging/highlight the account/right soft key(menu)/delete
for exchange server accounts
Do this through Activestink
for Hot/Live mail
do this through Windows live
hope that helps

That one you will probably have to remove via Activesync
Start the application
menu/options/Highlight the account you don't want and press delete.

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.

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
