[Q] Open email graphics automatically - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have my live.com email account setup on the GT 10.1, and it has been working very well, both before and after the TW update.
However, for every email I receive with embedded graphics, I have to hit the button "show pictures" in order to see the email as it was intended. After the TW update, I have to hit the button "show more details" to get the full email. Most of the email I get is fairly rich these days, so it is a PITA to have to have to hit all these extra buttons when scanning my email. Is there any way to set up Mail so that it automatically shows all the graphics when the message is opened?

[Q] Email problem

Email appears to download but does not show up on the phone - any ideas. Thanks in advance.
Can you be more specific?
When you say the email appears to download. Do you mean that you see the message headers but not the full email so that you have to select download full message. And the phone shows a dialog all that it will be shown after net time you synch/recieve email?
If so, you can stop the mail synch process and goto email => menu => send/recieve. If right the email will be downloaden and shown

[Q] Login issues with email?

Hi,
I have a rooted NC. I fired up the email program to retrieve my Yahoo email and it prompted me to put in my email address and password. When I clicked "Next", the Nook looks like it tried to setup the email, but then came back and said "Bad username or password". I triple checked both and even logged in via Web Browser successfully, but couldn't via email. I also tried the manual configuration for Yahoo, but it still didn't work.
Has anyone seen this and know a solution?
Thanks!!!
Found most of this on another forum and tweaked them a bit to work for me:
1. Press the E-Mail icon (the default Android E-Mail application).
2. Enter your Yahoo E-Mail address and password.
3. Press “Manual Setup” in the lower left hand corner.
4. For “Incoming Server Settings” set the IMAP server to “imap.mail.yahoo.com” and the Port to 993 with SSL Security.
5. For “Outgoing Server Settings” set the SMTP Server to “smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com” and the Port to 587 with no security.
6. Check “Require sign-in” and press Next.
7. Select how often your device will check for Email, and choose default options.
8. Give the account a name and set your display name for outgoing messages.
This should get it working for you.
Excellent!!! That did the trick. Thank you very much for the help biggins!!!
No problem. Glad I could help.
This works for me too. Thanks a bunch!
I'm having issues logging into my Google accoutn after having upgraded my Nook to CM7, repeatedly getting the message that my username and password don't match ....

Dell Streak 5: Can I "Lock" an Email to keep it from being deleted?

On the Dell Streak 5 (version 2.2); you can long-press on a "text message" and the menu option "LOCK" appears, setting a text so that you can not mistakenly delete it until you 'unlock' the text.
Can we do this also to an email? How can I 'lock' an email so that it doesnt get deleted from my phone? Is this possible?
i just star it in my g-mail and it keeps it stored

I think that will work, thanks.
rico android (aka rico ATT)
Update: starred a few emails and still able to delete them even while starred. I am looking for a way to "lock" an email jjst like the text messaging feature where, if you try to delete it you cant until removing the lock status.
..."is there an app for that?"...
Stilll able to delete a starred email without warning and no lock feature to prevent an email from being erased.
Is there a tool/app available that can lock an email and prevent them from being deleted?
Also, i have 187 deleted emails in my trash folder and am scrolling thru selecting one at a time (blue check box) then clicking the delete button at the bottom. Is there a way to "select all" then delete? I do see a "deselect or uncheck all" but do not see a "select all" option.
This is reference to additional email accounts , excluding the GMail account that I had to register with the phone for gmail syncing.

[Q] Email - words split to next line

I've searched to no avail.... I'm running stock and using the included email app. Some (not all) email comes through with words split between lines like this:
I have gone to see my fri
end and when I arrived sh
wasn't there so I then tri
ed to.... blah blah
It doesn't happen with all email. I found a setting in the browser to fix word wrap but can find nothing to fix email.
Thanks for any assistance. B
out of curiosity, have you noticed this happening with one or two people in particular? I'm thinking that it might be the way they send the email, not the way your phone displays it.
reason is - I notice that same problem once in a while on my corporate email setup on outlook. Turned out it was a problem on the sender's end. not sure the details, though.

Good point. I just got the phone and I haven't read many emails yet but will keep that in mind. One in particular that I remember was from an iPad owner and another was from a library. I didn't that problem with my last phone (WinMo)
I have one email from a public library to my gmail account. If I look at it with the GMail app on the GS2, it is fine but if I look at it on the GS2 email app, it has the split word problem.
i'm not really sure what would cause that. Have you tried to clear the cache on the gs2 email app?
I've gotten only about 12 emails since firing up the phone. I don't know how to clear the cache.
settings > applications > manage applications > "all" tab (up top) > find the email app that you're using. You'll see the button in there.
ok - thanks for directions. I cleared my cache and we'll see what happens
this is happening to me as well... stock email app hooked up to exchange. emails look fine in outlook as well as on the exchange server, but they appear fragmented (both portrait and landscape) in the email app... clearing cache does not do anything. this is all emails from all senders.
anybody know anything about this?
I know on my old Captivate, if you select anything other than the default font in email client, you will get this problem. But the new email client on GS2 doesn't have any way to select a different font.
Also, from the screen shots above, try tap the button "load more details" and see if it changes.
"load more details" just loads the entire email thread, instead of just the portion in view.
Nope. It tries to load the email as HTML mail if your current exchange server reports as Exchange 2003. This typically works well for Hotmail.
I don't see "load more details" anywhere. Perhaps this is only for exchange email?

you're right... and this does fix it, but now i'm curious on how to "force" this action from the get go...
in your exchange server settings, you can select the settings for how much of each email you sync, how far back your calenda sycsr, tasks (for 2k8 and above), etc...
under emails, select the size to retrive emails to ALL, that should download all of the email, and not show you the prompt to "load more details"
---------- Post added at 10:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:02 PM ----------
fwiw, when you only download part of an email, its downloaded in "plain text" mode.. when you download all of an email, either by default, or by clicking the "load more details" link. you download the html version of the email if your server supports html mail.
Not necessary always the case. With Exchange 2003 protocol, HTML email is not supported. So the server will only push down plain text portion of the email. Some mail servers like Hotmail are known to push as Exchange 2003 protocol only but can actually send out HTML email as well if you ask. So the 'Load more detail' button will ignore the protocol restriction and ask server for full HTML email anyway.

Repeat email notifications

Need to find some way to DISABLE repeating email notifications...as in I keep getting repeated "new" email notifications for the same email until another, newer email comes in...I've even got notifications clicked off in the settings menu and I am still getting notifications.
Any ideas? Running Clean ROM right now, but it was happening on Novella Dos as well...one of the reasons I switched over to CR...it is quite maddening.
Thanks in advance!

Go into your email, go to settings, and Uncheck "Email Notifications" I am running AOSP Email, but it should be similar.

thats the problem. POP3 will show a notification on any unread email. also, if you r deleting the email from the phone, you may not be deleting it from the server. POP3 gives you the option to change this in the incoming server settings. when inside the incoming server settings, you will see at the bottom that there is an option that says what the phone should do when you delete an email from the phone. if you delete it from the phone only, the email will still exist on the server. this will cause multiple notifications of the same email, even if it is marked as read.
a couple solutions:
1: if you ARE NOT deleting the emails and getting duplicate notifications, switch the account to an IMAP config. (every email host i have had gives you both options: IMAP or POP3)
2: if you ARE deleting the emails and the Incoming server setting is set to "Delete email from server: Never", you will need to change that to "When i delete from inbox". otherwise, you will have to deal with duplicate notifications. NOTE: IF YOU DELETE THE EMAIL OFF OF THE SERVER, ANY OTHER PLACE THE EMAIL IS STORED (I.E.: HOME COMPUTER, TABLET, ETC.) WILL ALSO DELETE OFF OF THOSE DEVICES.
you should also know that when deleting an email with an IMAP config will automatically delete it off of the server. IMAP will also show when you have viewed or replied to an email across all devices that are signed into the same email address as IMAP.

Thanks for the detailed response...I don't know what to say really; the problem has only happened recently, say last few weeks. I finally got fed up with it and sought a resolution.
I switch roms frequently, so I have to set up accounts frequently enough to know what is checked and my settings are default, always the same. So why the change? I guarantee I could power up my Rezound and the settings would be the same...and I never had this problem before.
Doesn't matter if the emails are read or not. Right now I have notifications off and the problem still is occurring. If I delete an email then I'm still notified for the next newest.
And last but not least, the problem has followed me across different roms. Thought it was specific to one as I had used that rom for several weeks. So maybe it is something server side. Can't configure Knology(now WOW) for IMAP, I tried. Besides, I refuse to check 'delete from server' because there are emails I need to keep that need attention from my home PC. I can change sync settings to longer periods or off, but that is not really feasible either.
So bottom line is, I just don't get it.
**Update** Not sure exactly what fixed it as I did multiple things in a short period, but the problem no longer exists. Unticked, rebooted, reticked notifications and all is good. Also loaded a different rom from bachup, but that was before I did above steps. Who knows??:fingers-crossed:
