Sorry for the long post.
I have a gmail account and a hotmail account. Gmail works fine but hotmail is not syncing with the phone. I can see on the web app of hormail that I have received new email but I press the sync button on the mail app and nothing happen. I verified the password and is the correct one. I was reading that it happening to some people on the s3.
Tried to delete the account on setting/accounts and it say that some apps need the hotmail account and that I need to reset the device to factory. Tried to delete the account from the email app and it shows me "delete account failed-503 service unavailable" I have been looking through the forum and cant find an answer. Is there's a way I can delete without resetting ? im stock but rooted Thanks in advance
Figured out! deleted the stock email data from titanium backup and it deleted the account. Set it up again and seems to becworking fine!
You could also clear the data on the mail app...once cleared, go back to the email app and youll run the set up all over again

When I flash new rom, I try to avoid following....
1. dirty flashing (flashing over existing rom without wiping my own ass)
-> sometimes creates problems with functionality, but not always
2. retrieving titanium backup with yellow lettered internet bookmark, all red lettered datas, and any 'Account' data.
a)For internet bookmark, retrieve green lettered one but not the yellow one. Retrieving both yellow and green ones will combine 2 same bookmarks.
b)Do not save nor retrieve any red lettered datas.
c) Do not save or retrieve any 'Account' data which is on the list among other datas(regardless of what color it is), or it may create functionality problems such as syncing your email.

I tried to delete on the mail app but it was giving me an error. Then I went to TB and wiped the data there and it worked. I was able to setup again
Hello,
I am having the same problem with my note2, only for my yahoo account. I am not familiar with the solution listed above as I don't know what Titanium backup is. I have not done anything to my Note since I got it, as far as changing ROM or anything. What is the best way to resolve this since I can't delete the account?
Thanks
Is there anyone that can help with this problem? I have a stock Note 2 and my yahoo account stopped updating out of nowhere. Now it also won't recognize my login info so I can't send messages either. I have installed the Yahoo app but prefer to use the stock email app for one stop to all my email.
Any suggestions welcome...

Try going to Settings, then Application Manager. Find the email application and clear data. Exit from the application manager and then open your email app and set up your yahoo account again.

Stanz,
Yahoo mail works better for me if I set it up manually. You can let the email app find the servers and such on its own, but that's where I've had most of my problems. If you follow the prompts in a manual set up its pretty intuitive. Delete your Yahoo account and try that.

I wasn't able to delete the accounts. It was giving me a timeout error. I went to titanium back up and wiped the data ftom the stock email. Then I setup again the email as "others"

Hey all,
On my SGS 2 right from the get go, I cant add an IMAP or POP account to the phone.
When it goes to check the incoming settings, it connects to the server (I can see the logs as its my mail server), logs in and then the email app closes.
I've reset to factory defaults etc and no difference.
My Exchange account, hotmail acct etc are all fine. I just cant add an IMAP or POP account.
Running CF-Root 4.0 on Ke7 kernel. (also tried with stock kernel as well of course)
Ay ideas?
Weird, considering Hotmail is just POP?

Hotmail is a 'premium' service.
Its certainly very strange, and im completely stumped right now. Im using K-9 in the meantime, but I dont really like K-9 that much.
My first thought was it's something wrong with my mail server (using courier-imap and couriier-pop) but it does it on ANY pop or imap account. (at least that I have access to)
UPDATE: If I purposely get the login details wrong, the app will report incorrect login, but wont crash. Only if the login is valid does it crash
My stock email client configured to connect to exchange via notifylink crashes whenever I try to open a larger email. Sorry this has nothing to do with your issue, but maybe it will give you some pointers.

Odd, well I am guessing it's some weird setting in your mail server. Most likely it's your mail server is following the RFC, but the stock email app isn't XD

You and I would assume that as well, but I've tried it on a different server type in a different data center in a different country and it still FC's
I'm completely baffled...
Dear All,
I have tried asking this in few forums but nothing concrete has turned up. I am truly hoping that somebody can resolve this problem for me.
Here goes,
3 days ago my email app was working fine. i was using IMAP and it is Google apps email address. The separate gmail app i used to use for my personal email address. I was using Frankenstein XWKJ2 and got a boot loop while installing an APK. then i used CWM and restored a backup and unfortunately it was XWKJ1 backup. Just after this restore the email problems started. and now i have tried everything including factory reset but still my email does not work.
But funny thing is Gmail app works perfectly it is only when i configure the Email app for my official address that they do not work. The email app allows me to add and all but while syncing it just keeps refreshing and finally shows no emails. I know we can use K9 but i found the Stock email app very good.
Somebody please help out. I am now on XWKJ2 Firmware (Frankenstein) and Speed MOD kernel.
You should try reflash ROM

You can try the following:
1. Open Settings => Applications => Manage applications.
2. Goto "All" and select E-Mail (if there are two E-Mail apps then do it for both of them).
3. Click "Force stop", "Clear data" and "Clear cache" (if available).
4. Start E-Mail app and configure your GMail account.
Good luck !

@It_ler. Thanks for the idea. I tried it but it is same result. The email app keeps refreshing but does not show any emails.
I will try to give more information i am having a personal normal Gmail address and then my company address is google apps address.
Now my Personal gmail address if i configure in Email app it works perfect but when i do the same thing with the google apps address it does not. Also as for re flashing i have done it quote some times now with complete wipes.
also another funny thing is if i use K9 email then it all works. But frankly i want to use stock email as i was getting used to it.
any solutions.

Still not working. :-(.. Somebody please help out.
This problem resolved by itself when i upgraded to ICS. While upgrading i did a complete wipe and everything started working normally.
Hence request to close the thread.
I've just recently reset factory data and installed ICS LPD on my sgs2.
Problem is... now my android mail (stock mail app) will not setup any account. It'll go to "retrieving account information" and then just say "connection failed".
I've managed to connect my 2 gmail accounts on the gmail app but they won't connect to my stock email app and neither will my hotmail account.
Maybe i've frozen some stupid samsung hub on titanium that shouldnt be frozen?
Can anyone lend me a hand?
i've actually just noticed that even if i defrost an app... now it doesnt actually defrost:/ what have i done?
Factory Reset
Perform a factory reset again with format system as well.
Setup email accounts before touching TB.

I am using the last Nov 12 CM10 update and I had problem connecting my exchange account with the stock email app. I tried Enhanced Mail, but it did not sync my exchange calendar. So I disabled the stock Email just to see if the EE will sync the calendar. No luck. The problem is that the stock Email app disappeared. I tried to flash new google apps, but the email still does not show on my app screen. I do not wish to do a reset for now. Is there a way to load the Email app again, and how to make it work with an exchange account. Thank you very much in advance!!!

That's where the magic power of the moderators comes in. PM one of the forum mods and they will move it to the right place.
I will take a look at my exchange settings and stuff and will try and figure out a solution for you when you thread gets moved

I know exchange works on CM10, I'm using stock right now. Gapps has nothing to do with Email so that is why it didn't work. Clear your cache and data for Email and Exchange in setting>application>all.

The problem now is that the Email app is not listed under app or in settings under apps. I loaded a app pack form recovery, but still the Email app is missing.
Any help on this? Really appreciated!

Install new nightly of cm10. Its in the package so either the install will add in back or you can pull it from the zip and push it to /system/apps and fix permissions.

Anyone else using the stock mail app for Yahoo mail having issues recently? My last received message was Saturday the 15th. If I try to sync, I get 500: Invalid server response. I can't even remove the account because of the same error. I try sending myself a test message and I get prompted for a login error. Tried resetting my password and no luck. I know I can use the yahoo mail app, I don't want to. Wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same.

I've been having the same problem with both yahoo and hotmail. I'm not able to sync and when try to delete the account it gives me an error 503 server unavailable. Can anyone help????
now that you mention it, I'm also seeing this happening with my device. I have Yahoo set to retrieve every 15 minutes but it's obviously not doing that. I have to manually refresh to retrieve yahoo mail
Had the same problem. .just cleared data on the mail app. Did the whole set up all over again and has been working fine now
Ya I'm also having this problem on my fathers Note 2 with a Yahoo account. Getting sign in failed, 503 error's. Try to delete the account get a 503 error. I reset the device completely and it's still occurring. It started happening on December 19th.

I've been getting the 503 errors also. tried clearing Email data and have removed the account as well. Can't set up the account on my phone again beause Email setup doesn't show in the setup and I still get the 503 errors. I will let me setup the Yahoo account under "Others". I finally gave up and grabbed the Yahoo Mail app, it works better for me anyway.
Same issue here and my wife's S3 is doing the same. I comes and goes and I can't delete the account because I get the 503 error. We need a fix because this is basic functionality.

My wifes bionic is giving login errors but then logs right in since yesterday.
Go under settings> application manager> all and clear the data on the email app. From there you can now select the email app and choose "other" login with your yahoo mail credentials. It recognizes it and completes setup. Thats what im using now.
