Where to set up email auto send/receive and alarm? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

I just got my hotmail account going (thanks XDA!)
Now i am getting greedy.
Thanks

just go to Settings>Sound>Advanced>Notifications> and for event select Messaging: New e-mail message.
Did you set your phone to check for new messages every 5 or 10 minutes or as it arrives? If you have a hotmail account, I believe its better if you set it to As It Arrives as this will save battery life and data charges since you dont log in/off every 5 minutes or so, and you get the new mail instantly

Stay Logged In in Outlook

Hi all,
I have an AT&T Tilt, and use e-mail on it. However, it is very annoying for me to, every time I want to receive mail, wait about a minute or so waiting for it to log in to the mail server. So, my question to you is: Can I stay logged in to the mail server? Then when I push Send/Receive, it doesn't have to log in again?
Thanks
What type of email are you accessing? Exchange, POP?
I assume it is a POP account since you mention "log in"?
Are you getting a pop up window that askes to log in?
If it takes an excessive amount of time to log in, could it be a problem with your mail service? It only takes mine about 3 seconds to log in.
Yea, mine takes about 2-3 seconds to login. Once I hit send/receive, it logs in pretty quickly.
If you have a Gmail account or Yahoo account or something like that, try setting that up as an account to see if it isn't fast.
I don't think there is a way to stop it from loging you out / disconnecting after you send/receive.

Automatic mail check, when Diamond is in sleep mode

Hello,
how can I tell my diamond, that it shall continue to check for new mail every 5/10/15/30 minutes (depends on settings in Messages).
When I send the phone to sleep by power button or 40 seconds of inactivity, it stops checking mail.
Are there any settings to change?
Thank you!
I think that FlexMail will be able to make this work. Not 100% sure but me think so. You might want to download the demo and see if it works for you.
It will likely be a battery drain, tho. Ure much better off synching to an Exchange server and going push.
Good luck!
Hi, I never understood all the push email stuff. Could you please explain how it works in short? Thanks
set i.e. a free account to mail2web live
activate the mail aggregator
it will check mail for you and push it to the phone
battery DRAINS a lot, so use activesync settled to check mail every 5, 10, 30 mins or whatever you want according to your needs; mine is every 4 hours
note that your mail setting are via an exchange server now
for me works great
if you set up a paid account you will have more services...
Indeed flexmail do the job you only have keep Flexmail open, it support aswell idle which is push with Gmail, and a other favor off Flexmail is that it can check all your email acounts at once.

Thanks a lot
Thank you very much. I chose seven.com for my pushmail service. It works perfect and doesn't drain the battery at all!
Is there any chance to let the diamond ring or sth else, when received a mail? only the button light blinks!
Thank you!!

[Q] Stupid, stupid email problem..

I got my Note just a few days ago and I am getting to know it but I'm having a really stupid and annoying email problem.
I have an iPad and a Note and the same gMail account configured on both. When I get an email in the gmail account, the iPad gets it first EVERY time. If I test the email by sending it from my PC, the iPad will get the email in a few seconds. The Note always takes longer. Sometimes 10 seconds, sometimes 20 minutes and occasionally, never at all!!
I've tried both the gMail app (which I hate) and the stock Samsung app (gmail setup as exchange) individually and both together and sometimes one will get email first and the other will get it 10 mins later!
I've also configured my wife's iPhone 4s to get the same emails and that too gets the emails exactly the same time as the iPad.
What on earth's going on?
I had a Galaxy S before the Note and that would get email at exactly the same time as the iPad, every single time.
Auto sync is on, email is on push for both email apps. Both devices are using the same gmail account.
Can anyone please help, I've completely factory reset my Note twice and the problem's still here.

Try this:
Set it up as an Exchange account like this:
enter user name and password
do manual set up
select Exchange
leave domain blank and /your user name as is
leave password as is
change server to m.google.com: 443
select push
Syncs just like any other Exchange account. Should receive everything at the same time.
Thanks. I tried this and it didn't seem to make any difference but I tried something else that seems to have done the trick.
I was previously syncing email, contacts and cals via the gmail account and not using the exchange account. I unchecked ALL the sync items on the 'normal' gmail account ie no contacts, no mail and no cals but checked contacts on the exchange account. Just to recap:
gmail account --> no sync for any items
exchange account ---> sync mail, contacts etc
selecting anything else to sync using exchange seems to have done the trick. It now seems to sync and for the moment, it's getting the email within a few seconds of the iOS devices. Few seconds later later though
Now onwards to tackle the sucky battery life...

Gmail push very very slow

I have my new Lumia 820
I have two email account setup on it
One using the default setup option
One setup as exchange
Both set to "as they arrive"
good 3G signal, brilliant in fact 13.5mbps
Yet the emails do not arrive quickly at all, average 5/10 minute delay, sometimes longer, or 20 minutes later when I've forced an update.
Irritaing as the iPhone 4s I'm trying to escape from is binging instantly on both accounts
In fact Ive set it to 15 minutes pull, we're at the 25 minute point and one of the accounts is not getting the email that's been there 25 minutes waiting for it.
There is something about gmail and Windows Phone. I have found on any WP7 and now WP8 device that gmail will not push emails to the device and all sorts of weird things happen if I try and make that work. Very odd. I set mine to "every 15 minutes" which works fine for me, but it is a pain.
I am close to moving to Outlook.com just to change this!
Creating duplicate named OutLook.com accounts and getting the GMails to forward to these makes it work well
But its a cludge.
You guys are setting up your Gmail as Exchange, right? m.google.com for the server?

Mail notification/frequency check problem

Does anyone else have long periods of time where no email is received? I have 2 Gmail accounts and 1 Exchange account. Exchange is push and the Gmail accounts are set to check every 15 minutes between 8am and 11:59pm (set to manual between 12 and 8am). Power saver feature is off. There are times when I open the email app and it downloads email that is over 3 hours old! With my setting, I should receive email every 15 minutes. Am I missing something?

Same problem, I'm on Rogers also -- did you manage to fix this ussue?
I'm set to full push notification and sometimes I get no notication at all except if I go INSIDE the app -- then I see a ton of emails that came in :crying:
Ditto for some text messages, not appearing in notification bar ...
