I have been using k9 for my email since I have multiple gmail accounts, but today since I can use multiple accounts in gmail now, I set up gmail. I have found that emails that have embedded pictures do not show the pictures even if I click on show pictures. Any idea on how to fix this?
This has me considering going back to K9, but if I do does anyone know of a way to get messages to completely delete from the server instead of moving to Imap/Trash? I have it set to delete from server, but did not know if there was anything else I could set in K9 to do this. Thanks for any ideas.
The only 2.1 ROM that has pictures showing up in Gmail (so far) is DarchLegend v4.1.
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.

Basically, i'll get a notification saying I have new e-mail (number of new e-mails is random), so i'll slide down the notification bar, click the e-mail notification and it takes me to my inbox... where I have no new e-mails.
I've tried refreshing the inbox to see if it was seeing e-mails not in the inbox yet somehow, and that didn't do it. The only thing I can think of is that my gmail account has an [Imap]/Trash Folder now that has 36 unread messages, and those are the e-mails I deleted without reading (Spam mostly). Is that what's triggering it?
It seems to be the same number of e-mails I received recently, so I think it's sending duplicate notices. Example: I'll receive 4 emails, 2 from a friend of mine, one from a newsletter I read an another spam. I'll read 3, delete the 4th unread, close the mailbox and then 5 minutes later i'll get a notification saying I have between 1 and 4 new e-mails, whereupon i'll check my inbox and there's nothing there.
Anybody know what's going on? I'm using the default captivate mail app to check my e-mail, not the google e-mail app. The google one never gives me this issue. (two different gmail accounts linked to the two different apps so I know which one mail is coming from)
Mine does this too. It's not random though. Whenever I delete an email and it's sent to my trash folder I will receive a new email notification shortly after. If I delete 3 emails, I will receive a notification for 3 new emails the next time it syncs with the server.
So how do we stop it? Stop using the default e-mail app?
Are there other/better e-mail apps out there?

I had the same kind problems with mine, it was also slow sometimes while downloading messages.
The gmail app is good if your using gmail. If not I've had good luck with MailDroid. There are other email apps in the market you can try.
had same problem. this fixed it for me:
from home screen
settings buttong > select settings
Hit applications > manage applications
hit settings button > filter > select all
find "GMAIL" and "Gmail Storage"
For each one, click and do the "clear data" and "clear cache"
let me know if that helps

I figured out why this is happening. I recently went back to the native email app (because Yahoo! Mail for Android is brown poop, and MailDroid's ads can get annoying -- plus it's only push email...I don't like seeing I have 4 new emails, for example, and each time I tap on each item, it downloads just that email through the internet. I want my emails to be downloaded all at once, ready to be viewed. I digress...)
Anyway, the native email app shows you have X (false) new emails when you delete X number of emails because it downloads a number of (older) emails after it syncs, after you had deleted some new ones. In other words, you delete 3 newer emails, it downloads 3 older emails. Scroll down and you will see those 3 at the very bottom as "unread" even though they're old. Annoying.
Is there a way to fix this, perhaps tell the email app to not download emails older than 3 days, for example?
Here's a work around though. This is what I did. I use Yahoo! Mail* and I have thousands and thousands of emails in my Inbox. This might work for your corporate emails too.
1. Create a new folder on Yahoo! (or your corporate email client) called Inbox2 (or whatever).
2. Move all of the messages from the Inbox to that new folder.
3. Sync (Refresh) the email app on your device.
4. Your device will begin "move" the current emails away and will eventually show zero emails.
You'll be starting fresh. Each time you get a new email and you delete the email from your device, the app will have nothing to download and it won't show false notifications. If you decide to keep an email, it'll stay. When you get a new email that you decide to delete, still, the app won't have any older emails to download -and- it won't show any false notifications. It's a workaround. Hope this helps.
*I'd like to add. I've enabled POP3 on my Yahoo! Account and I'm using the native email app as pop 3. I have all of my emails downloaded as they come in. So when I'm in an elevator or in a poor 3G area, I have all of my emails (in its entirety) downloaded ready to be view without fetching for the rest of the messages.
I am using the email client for Exchange and POP3 and I don't have this problem, so maybe it is specific to something the server is doing. Gmail app works fine too for my Gmail account.

I tried what you suggested but unfortunately it doesn't work.
I think the problem of the false notifications occurs, cause the email client synchronises each folder (inbox, spam, trash etc.) separately. So when we get a new mail which goes to our inbox, we get a notification and then we go to our inbox and we find it there. When we delete an email, we move it from inbox to the trash folder. So the client synchronises the trash forder and sents a notification that we have a new mail. Then we go to our inbox but we see no mail, cause it's in the trash folder. The same occurs with spam. When we receive a spam mail, it is directly sent to the spam folder. So we get the notification of a new mail, but when we go to our inbox we find nothing.
That's the only way i can explain the false email notifications and i can't find a way to solve this annoying problem. If anyone can help would be much appreciated.
Happens to me too. Must be a bug. It only happens with IMAP and not Exchange mail. If you delete emails it will download older ones and do the notification.
I have HD7 using Gmail, two POP3 mail account... I encoutered lost incoming mail in inbox (lost all inbox email account, except for Hotmail window live)
Symptom:
After read all inbox mail, I quit. After few minute or few hours will lost all inbox mail, cannot determine the time lost email after quit email, sometime few minute, sometime few hours, all INBOX email will lost, all inbox become empty.
Some email with attach file cannot see the file attached, because it's not appear the Staple Icon (open this email same as email with no attach file).
Sometime lost email during reading its.
Sent item email still record all mail I has been sent before.
Anybody have same symptom? How to solve it? pls help
Thank you.
If you check your email elsewhere, have the mails actually been deleted from the server?
Only thing I can think is that you're on the 'unread' pane of emails. If so, swipe left to get to the 'all' pane.
My answer as below:

Anybody encounter same as problem? pls help.
I'm not receiving new emails on the stock email app. I'm using the stock because Im also using Yahoo business email and Gmail as my personal at the same time. for me to see my new emails I have to open the app and click on refresh every time. can anyone tell me how to turn on push notifications that tells me when I receive new emails?
can anyone tell me if it's possible that I'm getting this problem because I have push notifications for both my emails on my iPad? I don't want to have to sign out of my email accounts on my ipad.
