I just got my new captivate the other day and i noticed i am only getting a small portion of my pop3 emails on my server I have over 80 emails and my phone only has 25, is there a fix for this?
The installed email client seems to keep 1 week of pop3 email and automatically ages it off machine. I see no way to change this.
is there another email app I can use?

Its a right pain setting up POP3 mail acocunts, in fact I've never had one working.
Currently I've solved my Yahoo and Hotmail accounts by using Windows Live and forwarding all my mails from yahoo to hotmail.
But I've got another POP3 account that wants money to set up mail forwarding. Sod that me thinks.
I'm 100% sure that all my settings for POP3 mail retrieval are correct,
INCOMING: pop3.graffiti.net
OUTGOING:smtpx.graffiti.net
USERNAME: [email protected]
P/W: XXXXXX
all yes to outgoing secure authentification, and same ID for sending emails.
but no dice grandma, no emails and a message telling me that im not connected or have incorrect account settings.
My internet connection works fine 3G and GPRS, I use it all the time, I have tried to retrieve emails while synced and while roaming, still no luck.
Anything I'm being thick about, or is the POP3 mail facility in WM6 just really fickle and buggy?
Thanks in advance for all help
Pop3 is fine. I have never had any issues with it in WM2003, WM5 and WM6.
I don't know graffiti.net personally. but a quick look at their login page and the fact they have a link to "interaction with other devices" or something like that suggests that you need to enable it on their website.
(Yahoo email requires you to log in to the webmail client and enable pop3 forwarding and access before you can access your emails via outlook or on your device and I am going to guess that graffiti make you do something similar)
Here in the states on AT&T I have to use the AT&T smtp mail server for sending email, but getting my POP3 email works fine. have you ever had your graffiti pop3 account working somewhere else?
all my emails just disappeared when i sent an email today???? even the ones i have not read. the only emails that are still there are sent items??? does anyone else have this problem? gmail has been working fine for about a month and half since i got my tilt.
the emails are still saved when i use my pc and go to gmail. i got a smartphone cause i need mobile email. this really defeats the purpose.
sorry if this is a duplicate topic. but if someone can help me out that would be great. -BILL
By default, I believe your last 3 days worth of email is stored on the phone. Perhaps the email was older then 3 days. You can change that in the email setup. Hope this helps.
Gmail works much better as imap versus pop3
I was having some strange problems with gmail when I initially set it up on my Tilt. By default, when you setup a new gmail account, the wizard sets it up as a pop3 account. This is how I had mine setup at first, and it worked inconsistently.
I then set it up again, but this time manually configured the account, selecting imap as account type. You may need to check the setup of your gmail account on a pc to verify that imap is enabled. It will also give you the settings that you need to configure the Tilt.
Since setting this account up as in imap type, it has been extremely reliable.
I don't know if its only me OR is this by design.
I normally put on nightly builds once a week and everytime i reconfigure my hotmail as exchange, I end up having all my hotmail emails as unread. That doesn't happen with gmail... I use my laptop & phone for checking emails - so this unread / read issue is bugging me a lot. Is this an issue / can anything be done to fix it - to sync the status of email?
42 views and no reply!!! looks like noone has this issue
same here with hotmail, also keep receiving copies of the same email once viewed and deleted. Trying to get rid of hotmail all together
the default settings doesnot sync deleted emails... for that there is a setting in the incoming settings to sync deleted emails with server.
I haven't been able to connect to Hotmail via Exchange for probably a couple months..what server settings are you using?
Hey guys
Wondering if anyone can help me out. Running CM6 on my N1 and finding that I get constant email notifications on my Exchange email accounts. If I really receive 5 emails I get at least 3 sound notifications instead of just one for new mail.
The Gmail account has a setting for 'Notify once' to only notify on first new email instead of each, but this setting doesn't appear to be available for Exchange email accounts in the stock mail app.
Does anyone have a solution/ideas?
Thanks.
Nobody else?
Maybe i'm the only one with this problem...?
Hello,
I’ve been using the phone for few days now and I’m having some problems with my e-mail. I have configured three e-mails accounts, 1 Gmail and two pop 3 mails.
The deal is that whenever I use the e-mail app I can check new e-mails, but I can’t see the old messages (the one I read before). Also, alter seeing the messages in the SGS the messages disappear from the phone AND from my e-mail server. I already checked the configuration and I have selected “Never” in the “Delete e-mail from the server” in the “Incoming server settings” of both accounts but it looks like as soon as the e-mail apps access my account it actually deletes the message from the server.
Does anyone know how to solve this?
Thanks
Do they disappear immediately?
Are you sure you don't check them elsewhere (standalone computer) where they ARE removed from the server?
Don't have that issue here, only once I check them on my home computer they are removed from the server and my phone.
I'm sure. I was traveling, and the only way to chck my e-mail was using the phone. When I got home I tried to download the messages in the outlook and no messages were downloaded. Than I tried to acess the messages using webmail and again I couldn't fine the messages. They just disappeared.
Tried again with the same results. I read the messages on the SGS and 10 seconds later the message disappears from the phone and from the server (I tried to read the messages using a Webmail page and there is no message in the inbox).
Looks like a Bug, but it's strange that I'm the only one that is experiencing this issue. I recall that I had a similar issue with my Archos, but I thought it was a problem with Android 1.6. It may be a issue with my e-mail account but it is just a simple pop 3 account. I see no reason why it would behave like that.
pop3 email vanishes
I am having the same type problem with my samsung vibrant.I set up a pop3 account using my cable account. I can send and receive mail but my mail vanishes from the inbox. It does stay on the server luckily. Nobody at tmobil or samsung has a solution except to use k9 but it happens on it also/ So they blame isp which makes no sense since it arrives. Very frustrating
