Hi All,
I was just wondering I have been using the stock htc mail application to get my company email on my Eris. The application does not have a "all documents" view. This pretty much makes it useless to me because I use a lot of mail rules to move my email into folders as I receive it. I can see I have unread messages but I would have to comb through folders to find the actual mail.
I had this problem while working on the stock 1.56 android release that came with the phone and also with the 2.1 leak.
I was wondering if anyone has encountered this before and has come up with some sort of fix, or has a suggestion for another mail application. Also even if there was a way to show number of unread messages in the folders view that would also work.
Just one more FYI my company email comes through exchange.
Thanks!
You could try the Touchdown app. I personally did not like it, (also using Exchange) but they offer a free trial period to try it out.
Using Touchdown I am having the same issue that I had while using k-9. It pretty much does not work.
I am getting the email OTA Via an exchange server but the email is actually lotus notes based. Its a pretty crummy setup but because my office only supports blackberry it was the only OTA solution I could come up with.
Has anyone used Commontimes - Mnotes with K-9 and got it to work?
If so could you post instructions
Hey Guys
Just joined the android bunch when the wife got me a new Xperia X10 for my b'day/anniversary. Its awesome and i'am loving every bit of it especially the personalization part of it.
However coming from the iPhone I have a few queries and would be great if someone could help me with it. Have searched the forums and haven't really got any useful info of it (mind you i could have terrible searching skill, btw did anyone see my keys??)
I have two mail id's like most people. One is my personal gmail id and the other is my corporate mail id. I have configured them both onto my phone and I'am indeed recieving all mails without a glitch. Unfortunately I don't have an option of sorts to configure my office calendar to sync with the native app. The calendar option does not exist for the second mail option(The option to sync my personal gmail calendar exists and is working fine).
However while using the iphone3g previously I was able to simultaneously use both the calendars (gmail & corporate) and an update on either of the two calendars from my desktop would show on the calendar.
Question1
Is it possible to have a similar system on the android as well. The backend for my corporate mail is provided by gmail and so is the calendar and everything in it. Someone suggested elsewhere that i could share the calendar to my personal mail and i could use it that way. Unfortunately it not enabled for me and the only option for sharing lets my personal account to see if I'm free or engaged at any time. This would be of very limited use to me.
Question 2
Whenever i receive a mail with a calendar invite on the corporate id, the mail appears empty with a small attachment. Using the preview option on the mail app displays text based data that pretty much random stuff overlaid on the meeting name etc(i guess this is the program info or something). Is there anyway if and when i receive an invite i would be able to add them to my calendar or refuse it right-away etc..
These two queries are the biggest of my worries as of now on the otherwise enjoyable experience. I'm terrible sorry for the long post but thought I'd give as much info as possible.
Thanks for your time and help!!
Cheers!!
PS: Some background info, Phone: Xperia X10i, Firmware 2.1-Update1(India), unrooted, baseband 2.1.54. If there is any other app that would help me do the same(Paid or Free), it would be awesome.
Hi there,
I use my phone in a similar way, I have 4 accounts in my gmail app. 3 corporate and 1 personal. If I can remember back to 2.1 (eclair) you can only have 1 gmail account in that app. Then you have to use the mail app for up to 5 more (not sure about moxier mail, I never used it).
Basically what your best doing is rooting the phone to get it up to 2.2 (froyo) that way use have much more control over what sync's from each account. I would recommend tripnraver's froyo. He has a new 1.2.0 coming tonight. You do have to put up with some minor bugs, but the benefits far out weigh the negatives.
A lot also depends on what type of email accounts they are. Either way froyo is way better for your needs.
If you don't wish to dabble with your new present, wait a few months when sony bring out 2.3.4 gingerbread!
I have had a few close shaves, while flashing my phone but approx 10 roms later, I'm pretty sure it's hard to brick it. Worst case restore it back using the sony software.
Hope that helps.

Hey all,
I recently upgraded to ICS on my samsung galaxy SII using KIES. Since the update i cannot get the stock e-mail client to show my hotmail e-mails as read on other devices.
For example, when on GB if i read an e-mail on the phone while i was out, and then checked my e-mail on my computer when i got back home. The e-mail would show as read on both devices.
But since ICS the e-mail only shows as read on the phone, is there any way to change the settings so that it works the same as it did on GB?
All other e-mail/calender/contact syncing works correctly as does sending/recieving and deleting e-mails. It is only the read massages that seems to be an issue.
My phone is not rooted and is XEU model running 4.0.3 XLPS.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
I had the same problem using email configured through Samsung sns.
I ended up using the exchange (push) option during setup. Once setup, goto menu / settings / tap your account / scroll down to "in case of conflict......" and change to "....... update to server"
Works for me.

Thank you for your suggestion UpInTheAir, i have tried this on my phone but i am still getting the same results :-( Do you have any other ideas?
I haven't used K9 email from Google Play since Froyo days on the HTC. You could check it out and see if that's working. The only other thing I can come up with is trying another firmware or custom ROM.
Ok, just rechecked myself. Seems to be intermittent!
I had some showing up as thread as well. I increased from 3 days to 1 month sync andlet it reload the app inbox, selected the first unread and refreshed my html email.worked, showing the previous unread message as read. Now I read another unread and or doesn't work. When back to 3 days sync and didn't work.
Bummer, just wonder if this is for just hotmail account or other. Will have to search XDA and Google to see about this bug, surely the question had been asked somewhere before?
Edit : tried a couple of modded email apks but no good.
Tried official Hotmail app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hotmail.Z7
Any changes to inbox seem to work and will show up on the Web inbox within a few minutes. Emptying the trash folder doesn't sync with the server though. Also don't know if it's a battery hog and causes wakelocks etc. yet.

OK the answer:
A modded Google ICS email works prefectly.

But of course you'll need root
Hey guys,I come from Xperia play forums and one of my family members bought an s2 that I set up,and updated to ICS but now its having bad email problems...
Up until today, the stock email app was receiving email just fine from a company server that deletes them whenever they are downloaded.Now,the widget is showing the latest mails,but you cant open them,it jumps to mails from last wednesday and stays there. Do you have any Idea how I can fix this? Its kinda urgent since some important emails are stored on the phone.Btw there is nothing in trash.

You should delete the email account and re-create it.
Check all settings for receiving mails from the server.
And check settings in EMail app.
You can define the time period for which you want to receive/display the mails.
Good luck !
Hello Everyone!
I have a problem with the Email app since Lollipop update .232 Europe CE1. I have many e-mail addresses, like private and company and other. I added 2 of my email addresses with IMAP and now I cannot add more, because if I want to do it, after the last step it says "Account not found. I might have been deleted.". I get this message with IMAP and with Exchange too (@live.com address). Does anyone have a solution for this? Or I'm the only one with this really annoying problem?
Thanks in advance
Well, it seems I'm the only one having this issue
Great! Maybe .264 update will solve this problem ...
Próbáld meg eltávolítani az összes e-mail fiókot és újra add hozzá. Ha ez sem működik akkor próbáld meg a Gmail alkalmazással, azzal hátha fog
Flashed .264, problem exists, so I give up. Waiting for my company phone next year and then I'll use my company emails on it.

I started having this problem but only after the e-mail app update that sony did recently. exactly the same "Account not found. It might have been deleted." error as you. I've seen similar reports on rom threads too, can't remember where exactly so you're not alone.
Anyway the good news is that i've always managed to get my 4 accounts working (2 gmail / 1 pop / 1 exchange) after trying to add them a bunch of times they finally stick (sometimes 10 tries sometimes more like 50 lol ... i'm really persistant xD )

Hello,
got the same issue. Just deleted my Exchange Account cause I've had some syncing issues. Now I'm getting this message, when I try to create the account on my phone again.
My other email accoutns are working perfect.
Haven't found anything about this issue on the www.
I'm on Customized DE 23.4.A.1.264
You got any idea right now how to solve it?
Greets,

I have no idea about this weird issue. Everything was flawless on 5.0.2, but since then the Email app is just a crap ... I'm on .264 too, but problem still exists. Maybe on Marshmallow ...
Hello,
Yesterday I found a solution for me.
First I made a Backup of my current configuration.
After that I deactivated every app that has to do with mail service.
Like exchange, email, kalender, etc. Also cleared all the data. Then I deactivated the auto sync service.
Now I restarted the mobile. Now activate all the apps again except exchange 5.*
After that I added my mail exchange account with success. Now just activate exchange 5 and auto sync. Get back the other mail accounts with the backup made before.
Right now everything is working for me.
Full wipe wasn't an option for me cause my mobile is encrypted.

I also got this "account not found. it might have been deleted" error.
story:
I rooted following this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...ck-d6502-03-23-4-0-546-completeguide-t3171219
Did not try the Email app while briefly on 23.4.a.0.546. I am now on 23.4.a.1.200.
I came from 5.1.1, 23.4.a.1.232, D6503 where I backed up several app installs (apk). I happened to also backup the Email-app.
my solution:
I started the Email apk to see what version it was compared to the one I was running.
The same (8.1). I installed it over the existing install anyway to see what would happen.
I had one mail account added at this point.
NOW I could add another mail account!
BUT! When trying to add a second one, the error was back. So I installed the app again and I was able to add another mail account.
This was repeatable. I did this three times.
Thought: It MIGHT work to just reinstall the app you are already running if you get the apk. In my case the versions appeared to be the same.
I did not try to uninstall the Email app completely and then try to add accounts from "scratch".
Strange error with a strange "solution"; or work-around.
Edit: I did not try to add accounts until after I had removed a ton of Sony and Google crapware (my main reason for rooting).
So I dont know if the error is related to app removal.

Hello,
My phone isn't rooted and so I'm not able to uninstall pre-installed apps.
I hope this bug will be fixed on the next update...
SOLVED: Pause the Auto-Sync in Settings>Accounts
Good day to all! I stumbled across the solution (at least for me on my Z3c) by speed reading through all the previous replies and noting what seemed to pop out. Basically with auto-sync still activated the email app can't sync, delete, add, etc (decide) what it should do first. So, within Settings>Accounts tap the top right 3 dots and disable (uncheck) the auto-sync feature. Return to the email app (or I suppose calendar or any app causing a similar issue) and add the account. Once all accounts are added to the app, return to Settings>Accounts to re-enable auto-sync and all works (Finally!). Cheers!

Had the same problem on my Z1 and it worked!!!
Thanks
Problem still not solved October 2016
I have the same problem with Xperia Z1 compact, Lollipop 5.1.1. I have two accounts but can not add the third, same message. Tried re-setting, clearing cache, didn't help. Autosync was already unchecked.
Seems to be a Sony problem, haven't seen anything on www about other vendors.
Any solutions other than rooting the phone or third party apps?
Thanks!
PS Sony has marked their threads as "solved" while it definetely is not. Little white lies.
