this may be covered some place else but I am looking to see if there is a way to set a different notification for my separate email accounts.
i.e. If I get a email on my gmail account it plays one tone and there is another tone for an email entering my outlook inbox...
bump...bump...
Watchflag (http://www.watchflag.com/) can do this. Good app. Liked it when I used it. That was a few versions ago.
Hope that helps.

Ill give it a try.

I currently monitor 3 different email accounts on my Tilt: My Yahoo, my daughters Yahoo and my work email. I've searched on this and found a few archived topics but none seemed to address the issue. I would like a different notification for each email account, so that when I hear it, I know i've received an email for a specific account. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks!
I know there are some ringtone/messaging managing programs which I have not tried. Have you tested out a program called Ringo? I don't know if it will do what you want but I know there are programs like it as well.

I am using the default email client in WM. I check email manually only when I need it to save battery life and cut down on un-needed notifications.
The problem I have is that my emails are not sorted based on when they are sent. The only date option for sorting is "Received" date. For some reason, the received date does not seem to have anything to do with the date it was sent.
So, when I do a Send/Receive, I want the most recent on the top of the list. But if it has been a few days, I get a couple hundered message and it is almost impossible to sort through because they are all mixed up.
Does anyone else have this issue? Also, do you have another email client you would recommend?
Thanks for any advice.

I use FlexMail every now and then when I flash a rom that gives me the same problems you are describing. They have a 30 day trial so you can test it and see if it will work for you. It offers Folder support and multiple signatures. The only free fix I have found is a differant ROM.

what rom are you using?
what email settings are you using? imap or pop?
What email client?
When you use pop internet clients, like gmail or yahoo, that thread messages, all the messages come out when pop. on imap though, it keeps it organized in date format.
maybe try removing all accounts and reinstalling your account and making sure to use imap.
try emoze you, with the newest version you can sync any email....
i have the touch diamond for sprint and the little yellow bubble that tells you how many unread emails you have always says four (4) even tho i have no unread emails. i have tried deleting my email account off the phone and the bubble stays there. anybody know how to fix it other than a hard reset?
First check other accounts, maybe they have unread mails. If that's not the case, try this:

i only have one pop3 email account and sprint picture mail as a default and i triple checked to see if i have unread email...tried the thread u sent me but it didnt work =( any other ideas on how to fix this problem?
Did you also check all the other accounts? There is a default outlook account and maybe even sms/mms accounts.
I once had a welcome message in a default account and searched for a loooong time before I found it.
If that and the fix from my earlier link doesn't work I'm afraid I'm out of options
!!!
it was 4 new welcome messages in my outlook account! thanks man.. i had to go to the inbox drop down menu to realize the new emails were in that account. kinda made me feel dumb
Glad it works now
It is possible not do download to your phone all the inbox, but only certain email flagged (labeled) in gmail based on a filter?
I tried to setup the inbox label to only synch to 0 days... no luck, back to minimum of 1 day (Sycn none option unavailable for the inbox). I don't want to download all my email, just those that got labeled.
Another workaround is to forward them to another account for just the mobile device, but I then end managing two Gmail accounts. Any ideas?

You can filter all your mail that is incoming and move all of it to other labels, so it never really is in the inbox.
Unfortunately if the email is not in the inbox, it will not be downloaded even if you applied another label to it and tell Gmail in the Hero to download those with that label... or I am doing something wrong?

I'm saying apply only a label to the email you DON'T want synced. So the only mail that is left in your inbox is what you want synced.
Does that make sense?
Got it!! But instead of just applying a label, emails needs to be "moved" from Inbox. And, under filtering, the only way to do it is to mark "Skip the Inbox (Archive it)" and then all emails from now on "disappears" from Inbox (you can see them in All Mail "folder").
Problems with this? Once you Sync the phone (I don't know if I am doing something wrong) it gets lot of emails even if you specified only to Sync a few days. May be this can be solved by archiving everything before setting up the filtering and synching.
...AND when you return to your Inbox (regular Web Gmail) you need to select "All Mail" every time since this is not the default view (and I don’t find a way to change that) to view those emails that may be are important, but you just don’t want them on your phone right away... and that piss me off.

I'm sorry I'm a noob, but I've searched and read a lot and I don't seem to see anyone with this exact issue....
I have a few email accounts. Before I flashed to gingervolt, I had messages from both accounts accessible in the same list and notifications worked for both. Now, I must choose which account I would like to access at a time.
I really can't find any settings to adjust this on the phone. Does anyone have a clue what may be wrong or is this just the way Gingervolt behaves?
Thanks.

If I'm the same as you you mean 2 accounts in Gmail. You will get notifications for both but you have to view each account seperately. I've never seen it any other way.
Sorry, I know I wasn't very clear. I've got a gmail account and then another non-gmail account that I get via POP/SMTP. It seems I only get notified for the account marked as primary and I have no way to change the frequency with which it pulls from the POP server... I believe it's set to around 30 mins, but I can't find a way to change that at all.
Does anyone know how to (using GingerVolt):
1. Change the polling frequency of a POP account?
2. Set the notification to work for both gmail and another account, regardless of which is primary?
Thanks!
Ok... So, I think K-9 mail is going to give me more frequent polling. Still testing....

Glad you're getting it figured out
I thought the stock email client did this... Not the gmail client but the AOSP email client which allows 1 centralized box. You can also specify how often it goes and checks for new mail.

Which is exactly why I posted... I thought those capabilities would be in the mail client after flashing to Gingervolt.
K-9 still seems to be working well enough for me.
Ok... I have figured out the proper imap settings so the sync time is no longer an issue like it was with POP, but I am sticking with K-9. It is really well done. The ability to set the notification quiet time and a unified inbox are worth it alone.
