[Q] Email client crashing - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am experiencing a strange behaviour in the built-in email client of my i9000. It is set up with an IMAP account and I get a FC every time there are many bounced emails (returned for some reason) in my inbox. There are about 20-30 every day and as soon as I delete them everything is fine again.
It almost seems like those returned mails are "clogging" the client. Anbody with the same problem and/or a solution?
Thanks a lot...

AT&T Tilt GMAIL NOT WORKING!!

First and foremost, i searched the forum, and did not see a problem or solution similar to mine.
Now,...
I had gmail set up as with pop3 mail, it worked fine for about 6 months, currently i can send mail still with no problem, i cannot receive mail.
When it checks every 2 hours(personal setting) or when i try to check it manually, it goes through the steps correctly, but it says there is not changes (new mail), even if there is mail in my inbox,...

HELP: Pop3 messages disappearing

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

[Q] I am not getting emails through Exchange server

Hello
I have a SGS since about a month now.
The email was fine and I could get all mails even before Ms outlook on my laptop.
but I have just changed the ROM yesterday and since then I couldnt get any mail.
Though I am using exactly the same configurations and settings
Every other internet related app is working fine (including other email apps like Gmail)
I am just having this with the mail app. and for the Exchange Server mails.
I have noticed two things.
1. the sync is not happening (no moving dash circle on the top right corner) and
2. when at the mail accounts screen if I long touched the mail account (which is the only one anyway) and then choose Refresh .. it ask me for Force Close !!!! as it said there is something wrong with the process and it has to be closed.
Can you please help me out here
Work emails are very important for me.
Thanks a lot

[Q] Email problem

Hi i'm new to android.I recently bought milestone and try to sunc my emails.
With my Tellas acount(a company in greece) emails works just fine.But when i try to sunc hotmail it downloads the messages ok.I delete the unnesesary ones.But the problem is that when i reboot the phone i find out that email's are missing and downloaded again even the deleted ones,or the client crashes and loses all emails.
Anyone had experience the same problem with a hotmail account?Is it the software or a faulty device???
Thats probablt got somthing to do with your Hotmail settings, and not the phone. I use Hotmail, and it works fine after disabling POP and enabling IMAP folders via the PC. try that.
Thanks that worked.After search found out that android 2.1 is not compatible with pop3 hotmail.So thank you again you save me because i'm almost never home.

That's not fully correct. Android is a platform. What helps you with mail is just the application. It does not matter it commes preinstalled as you can easily replace it with other (btw: give K9 mail app a try). Android got nothing to do with 3rd party mail servers not following world defined standards (there shall be no "hotmail pop3" but just POP3 standard). If you can use imap - try it instead but beware account quota. I've also read some too frequent pooling from hotmail (like more often than 15 mins) may cause problems.

Exchange account sync - calendar & contacts not sync properly

Hi,
I came from HTC desire, previously when I used with my office exchange, it managed to sync emails, calendar and contacts perfectly. However, when I changed to SGN, the following situation happen.
- Modify or cancel event from Outlook, phone doesn't get sync (even I sync manually few times), it is still displaying old info.
- Modify contact in Outlook, for example mobile number or name. Phone doesn't get sync and still display the old info.
- Modify contact in phone, for example company, Outlook doesn't get the updated info.
All above are done with process where sync is "triggered" successfully.
Did any of you encounter this problem? Any resolution?
I can't help you, but I'm having problems with email in my exchange account. I have everything set up the same as my last several Android devices, but I can't reliably receive new emails. Sometimes they'll be delayed by a day or so. It's almost like the email client is not using cellular data to update and only using wifi when the device is on. Anyone else have this problem?

Sounds like account & frequency settings than an issue. Have you verified them? Are you on mobile data all the time?
I'm finding that on occasion it stops syncing mail.. the moment you reboot OR go in and manually ask it to refresh it starts doing it normally again no problems...
I am also having the same problem .. However manually refreshing - sometimes still does not work. It is indeed - very annoying .. I believe the problem is in the Email.apk ..
still no solution found, apart from using different E-mail clients off the market, which work with various success ..
I've been through the settings many times but still have the problem. It just decides to stop syncing sometimes.

Any alternate email client you suggest? I start to miss HTC mail client.
Although a bit weird, but after flashing this rom (Cassie's XtraLiteRom KKA ThunderBolted! V2.2) it seem to work fine so far. Still observing and hope it does really work.
I am also using the same ROM - there was no improvement for me. I believe the problem is in the E-mail client. The one we have is version 3.0.0.1. Before on another Android phone I used 2.3.5. I tried to replace the new one with the old one - and then it works. The problem is however that the old one is not scaling up to fit the large Gnote screen. It is a lower resolution.
I tried many other e-mail clients - K-9, Kaiten (both of them could not connect to my exchange server (2010)), Moxier - for some reason crashed my contacts and then I tried TouchDown - which is kind-a good and in terms of connectivity - all worked fine - but there were some integration points that were not fit for my taste.
What I ended up doing was a bit weird - but so far works nicely. I downloaded Google Calendar Sync - which takes your Outlook calendar and syncs it with your Google Calendar. Then I downloaded GO Contact Sync Mod - and that does the same for the Outlook and Gmail contacts. So I have both of them running on my PC and they automatically sync Calendar and Contacts. This way - my phone get them through the Google account and .. a bonus is that I have a backup
To check e-mails - I use the IMAP functionality of K-9 as my exchange server doubles up as IMAP too. For the time being - that's OK for me - and I will be hoping that Google will fix up this E-mail client in the Ice Cream Sandwich .. let's hope it is not I SCREAM sandwich
Alternatively - one can use the old E-mail client - 2.3.5 .. for Contacts and Calendar only and use K-9 for the mail .. It is really a matter of preference
I noticed that this may work. Instead of using push notification, use interval sync. This seems to solve it?
It's really weird and I still can't figure out the root cause.
That's a good clue - it appears to fix it!
Iam using SGN with 500+ emails everyday! absolutely no problem at all. I have been user of XE, XL, Sensation etc I personally think this issue arises when data connectivity of the concern operator is down (GPRS / EDGE) however, on WIFI no issues at all

Nope it's not the connectivity issue, it's the bug on push notification. Apparently this seems to be a bug in samsung, I didn't have issue in HTC previously.
After changing the push to interval pulling, it works perfectly fine now.
It might be related to 2.3.6 I recall having the issue on 2.3.5 and I'm pretty sure I saw it on my p1000 after I modded it.
My note is still stock.

I'm having problems with contact syncing between SGN and Exchange 2010. Create on phone or on Exchange - no way - no sync.

Any ideas?

Forgot to add:
Mail and Calendar is sync'ed OK.
On Galaxy Tab with KRATOS 4.1 everything syncs fine with the same Exchange server.
