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

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...

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
Using the standard HTC ROM.
Ok, I've set up an e-mail account on the phone that is working fine. If I need to, how do I delete this account? I can no way to do this and there's a distinct lack of info in the manual on how to delete this sort of thing - plenty on how to set it up!
Regards and thanks

While in TouchFLO 3D move across to the EMAIL icon. Push the MENU option in the bottom right of the screen. Select ACCOUNTS and then ACCOUNTS. This will bring you to the MESSAGING screen which shows you SMS / MMS at the top, then any email accounts you have then SETUP EMAIL.
Move down using the dpad (hardware buttons) and when you have highlighted the account you wish to delete press the MENU option in the bottom right of the screen and choose DELETE.
Remember use the Dpad to highlight the email account you wish to delete. If you use your finger you will more than likely open the email account instead of just highlighting it.
Many thanks tomchap. The collective knowledge and experience on the www is amazing.

What if the account does not exist?
Ok, but what happens if the account is not listed there? 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.
Any ideas?

Just go to "messaging" from "start" and open e-mail accounts.
You can delete or add new accounts from this application.

hi,
thank you for the reply, but my case a bit strange.
I found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=404851&highlight=email+account
I can see the account icon shows at the right hand side (TouchFlo3D interface), but when i click at "Menu"->"Accounts"->"Accounts...", the email account didn't listed there
Therefore, I try to create for another email acount and use back the same account name, the system prompt me that I have to use a different account name (eg. Yahoo!) as the email account name already in use (although there is no any email account listed there). So, I change the account name to "Yahoo!-2" and now in the account list only listed this newly created email account (but the dummy email account i created still remain invicible and cannot get rid of it). Please help
On my Windows Mobile 5, I had my Hotmail account in my Outlook. It looked just like any other email account. Now with WM6 on my Touch Pro, when I try to set up my Hotmail account, it just opens the web browser and take me to the Hotmail website, so I must log in there to get my emails. Just like any other webmail.
Is there a way to get Hotmail in my Outlook on WM6?
Have you tried logging into Messenger on the device? It should take you to the Windows Live setup screen, then select sync email (I disabled the sync contacts thing since it messed up my contacts). Hotmail should appear in your mail accounts then
Great! Thanks a lot, it worked
heya, I'm a first time wimo user and i tried to do the stuff you mentioned above, but it didn't work. I got into messenger, but it takes me straight to my contacts list. apart from that i couldn't find the option to sync the contact list. I accessed the messenger software through messages/messenger

While you were setting up your Messenger account there should be a screen that asks if you want to syncronise your Hotmail contacts and emails to your device. If you missed that you might need to re-do the signup process again.
actually, this does work but if u log out of messenger, the mailbox also disappears... hummm...... so its not a perm solution.
I encounter a similiar as you do. I have dl another version Windows Live from http://wl.windowsmobile.com, but you have to remove the HTC PRO existing version which have IM function, this one dl does not. [I use Ebuddy to connect my MSN instead.]

Thank You, this worked for me
Hotmail location
I checked through my installed programs and the only messaging client i can find is the one with msn aol and yahoo bundled together. is it possible i need to instal a cab to get the messenger w/ hotmail working, or iam i not looing in the correct directory on the fuze?
Try Windows Live Hotmail for Windows Mobile
http://www.gowindowslive.com/Mobile/Landing/HMforWM/Default.aspx?Locale=en-US
the link should take you to the download of the program. Once you install you can set up your hotmail account in you phone and it should go through a process of accepting terms and conditions, etc and then it should appear normally in your phone.
Hope this works.
only 50 e-mails ?
although i got my hotmail in my messages inbox i can only see the last 50 e-mail messages, when i synchronise my hotmail on my Pro it stops at 50, but if i remove 1 mail from my device and sync again then the device only downloads 1 more email to top up to 50..

Does this work if you want to add more than one Hotmail accounts?
You can also use the beta @ http://www.seven.com which will let you have several hotmail accounts. I use it, and it works pretty well.
been trying it from last night but everytime I try to set up the email it keeps saying
Server busy...The server is busy now. Please try again. (108)

I uninstalled sprint picture mail (wasn't cooked into my rom) but the account still exists in the email tab of T3D. I couldn't find where tflo stores these settings. Any ideas?
Is this email account set to sync in ActiveSync (mobile device manager)? If it is, remove the check mark next to it on your computer, and re-sync. I don't know anything about sprint picture mail, but that's the solution to this problem with regular exchange/pop3 email accounts.

Thanks for the reply , but I do not have outlook installed so I never active sync. I just noticed I posted in the wrong forum. Sorry
I too have the same problem. not just tf3d either it does it on my kaiser using manilla 2d too. If I use sprite backup and than restore I have 2 gmail accounts and 2 yahoo accounts it even prompts me when im setting up my account that the "account name has already been taken" so it must be saving this information somewhere I looked through the registry to no avail maybe herg or someone knows the answer.
