I made a typo when addressing an email and that "bad" address keeps popping up when I start a new email. Ho can I remove it? I tried long pressing and hoping for a "delete" button but no luck there.
More info in case that isn't enough of a description: I am running CM7. It happens on all three of my email accounts. I begin to type a new email address in the "To:" line and the address with the typo pops up as a choice along with other "good" addresses.
TIA for any assistance.
Contacts > [specific_name) > menu button > edit > enter correct email address > save
Thanks for trying to help, neidlinger but I do not have any contacts (I know that sounds odd but I don't use my Nook for email very much. I use my phone and desktop (both Windows)
Any other ideas?
How about delete account and re enter?
I have three email accounts on the Nook and when I start a new email in any one of them, the email address with the typo pops up with the "good" email address (I hit a k by mistake after .com one time and the Nook remembers it). I have no names or email addresses in the default contacts app (haven't put any in yet). Does anyone know where the "auto fill" emails are stored on the Nook?
thanks for trying to help, life64x
Sounds like a user dictionary issue. You can find it in settings.
I don't have my nook at the moment, lent it to my other half for the weekend and didn't get it back yet. Muck around in the settings menus until you find it, or someone else comes in to tell you exactly how to get to it.
Sorry I can't be more precise then that.
Thanks for your suggestoin, Blue6IX. I went through the Settings and found "User dictionary" under "Language & Keyboard Settings" but no luck: it says "you do not have any words in the user dictionary".
Any other ideas?
I found an answer after googling various terms. Even though I did not have any contacts on my Nook (nor in my google gmail account). I did have the setting "Sync Gmail" checked in "Accounts & Sync Settings". When I went to my gmail account on my desktop I saw the typo listed not in "My Contacts" but under "Call Phone". I deleted that entry by clicking on "More" then "Contact Details" then "More actions" then "Delete". I synced my Nook (the typo was removed at that point).
Maybe this will help someone else (?)

I dont know exactly what happened but my email account disappeared.
I've tried to setup email over and over again but it never shows up on my available accounts list.
Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?
*something wierd...
when i run through the email setup it stops me at account information... i select "account type" and only SbcGlobal Mail and IMAP are available when i try to tap next it says "that name is already assigned to another account. Enter a unique name (which i've done several times) and try again."
next a balloon window says:
"cannot connect with your current settings, to change your settings tap settings"
it wasnt doing this last night. and i havent changed anything
please help
Everytime i connect to my mail server via the standard email client. Previous messages on my device will delete, does anyone know how to disable this so i can keep my old mails whilst retrieving new ones. I have searched everywhere for this (but ill keep my flame proof jacket handy just in case)

Try changing the Email Settings to get email more than 1+ day.
I have looked through all of the setting but with no luck I cant seem to work out how to do this, is there a regedit for this at all
From within an e-mail account:
Menu > Tools > Options.
Tap on the account in question.
Now tap next (right soft key) Until you get to the screen with "Automatic Send/Receive" & "Download messages:"
Change "Download Messages" to whatever duration you want (including the option of "All Messages").
Now if your talking about a gmail account then the fix is different: Make sure your username is "recent:[email protected]" of course use your username where I put the underscores.
Both of these issues are documented within the forums.
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...
billgatessucks
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?
Delete Email
Try this mate....I also search high low...until i found this...
Already had that issue myself and solved it here:

FINALLY! I've been looking too. Tried other non-working solutions. I am a very happy man,. Thankyouthankyouthankyou. (Bows)
Thanks a lot, had this problem as well!
OK, this is probably a silly question, but I can't figure it out for the life of me.
I have set up a mail account to Gmail. In that account I'm forwarding some other accounts of mine, so it gets pretty crowded.
What I would like to do is delete messages from my phone but NOT from Gmail.
Outlook Mobile offers two choices, as far as I can see: when deleting messages either
Move them to server trash, or
Delete them off the server.
Neither of those suits me. I only want to delete them from the bloody phone.
A further restriction is that I like to use my mail from TF3D, and therefore would rather not having to install another mail client unless TF3D can somehow be coerced into working with it.
Oh, and in case you wonder - I don't sync my mail with the desktop Outlook. I'm using Gmail more and more...
Thank you all for your help.
have you tried both options, and seen what the effect on the server inbox is?
ive thought of this before, and it annoyed me greatly, but i cant remember the solution. plus, we all know how wm doesnt word things correctly.

err... sorry.. duplicate post.. don't know why
Tap on mail (touch flo)

Tap on Gmail
(setting should open up now)
Hit 'Edit Account Setup'
Click on next next next next next
(hide key board on Automatic Send/Receive screen)
Hit 'Advanced Settings'

Thank you for your answer. However, I only have the two options described in my first post. Can you see a third option there?
err.. oops. Just checked again
I could have sworn it was there!
Sorry mate. guess that was on the P1 or something.. not sure.
This might not be a feasible solution, but ... just a thought..
You could set it to keep the messages only for the last 4 or 5 days..
that way, they won't be on your phone, but will be on your server.
A POSSIBLE workaround.. definitely not a solution
Here is what I configured to use the diamond without loss of messages during their removal :
I created a special e-mail address to use with my mobile phone, like [email protected].
And I set up a redirect additional for all my messages to it.
Now, I can delete all my messages without erasing the ones on my main account.
Try to go to "tools" - "option". Click the account you need to edit. Click "send/receive schedule" - "advance settings" - "when deleting messages" dropdown menu.....

Same thing. Just the two options.
Delete from Server.. or Move to Server Trash
OK, I think I've got it. It all boils down to the fact that the default Gmail setup is IMAP. If you change that to POP3 (using the instructions from Gmail) you will be able to delete your mails on the phone only.
It would be nice if someone could confirm this. It certainly seems to be working for me.
EDIT: WORKS! I get "Keep them on server" now.
The problem is related to the gmail server own rules. I have just made a test account and there is no "keep on server" option on the WM mail client. On my other account (my own domain/server) there is no problem.
You could use another mail provider (hotmail, live) for example.

Turns out it actually is IMAP vs POP3. While IMAP is generally better, when you do something locally (on the phone) it is as if it was done on the server (a disadvantage in this case).
The key is to fool Diamond into not recognizing Gmail, which means giving the address as [email protected][B]gm[/B].com, then put all the POP3 settings.
On the other hand, I've noticed it will only download the unread messages...
