Hello, I'm hoping someone can help.
I recently bought a HTC Desire and I'm loving it except for a big problem with my IMAP email account.
Everything worked perfectly for the first day. However the next morning I noticed I hadn't received any emails. I ended up deleting the account and starting again. No joy.. I ended up hard resetting the device and setting all back up. This time the only mail I received was what it hadn't received prior to resetting.
Now after numerous resets and support phone calls the device receives absolutely nothing yet it will send no problem. I have another account which works fine. Also the email account works fine on all other devices.
I understand the obvious question is whether I've configured the device correctly. Trust me I have.
Please can anyone suggest anything? It's almost like the Desire has cached something about my email account despite the data wipes..?
Many thanks in advance!

Just the same issue - "no mails"...
IMAP works perfectly here. I have one Exchange ActiveSync account and one IMAP account.
My IMAP gmail account is working perfectly here too. But I did had problem getting email notification to appear on the status bar which I manage to resolved.
I tried the imap but went back to just the gmail app as the gmail app had the emails come through much faster. I didn't find the imap and gmail worked well at all.
Tried an alternative mail client like K-9?
I'm using K-9 but I don't like it. I haven't yet found anything else that does push with IMAP though. K-9 doesn't work in the same way as other email apps for POP, which I use for another account. In fact it's unusable for me for POP on Gmail as it deletes msgs as soon as they arrive (they are not being deleted from server).

Same problem over here with IMAP failing to retrieve new emails after a certain point. I think the built in client is having difficulty with some messages - if I use another mail client to delete the next email (after the Desire stopped receiving new mail), receiving springs back into life.
I'm going to take a closer look at this. My best guess is that the HTC email client has an obscure bug relating to a mis-implementation of the IMAP protocol. For all sorts of reasons, I'd like to get the HTC client working! Perhaps there's a workaround we can implement until a bug fix is released.
In short, definitely a bug.
I agree, there is definitely a bug in there - more than one. I think I'm going to be forced to go back to good old pop3 for emails on the Desire. Even then though, the HTC mail app doesn't do push. Maybe k9 will work better with pop3 than it does with IMAP. Although neither k9 or the gmail app copy and paste do they? So I don't know what is going to be best.

When sending an email from the phone via our Exchange server the email will stay in drafts if I have my Outlook application open. If I close Outlook and send another email from the phone it sends just fine.
The same problem affects iPhone users. It did not cause a problem for me on my Diamond Touch Pro phone which was Windows Mobile.
Any ideas?

So I just got the Nexus today and so far I am loving it. One thing that is annoying me is that exchange contact pictures aren't showing up in the mail client. In fact for those colleagues that I have in my phone's contact list the email client is not recognizing them as the same contact. This worked without issue on my Rezound but that was using the HTC Sense email client. Is there a setting somewhere I need to change to get this to work on the Nexus?
As a grey haired beginner this might be an easy question but how do I get emails sent from my Xperia Arc S to be automatically copied in to my Outlook Sent Box on my PC without having to BCC to myself every time? I have 3 email accounts, 2 are own domaines via Fasthosts and one is via talktalk.net
I've my LT18i connected with my corporate email adress (Exchange) and when I'm sending a mail, I also see the mails in the sent objects.
Which email account do you use (e.g. Exchange, SMTP, etc.)?
All my corporate friends seem to have this working ok. I'm on SMTP, maybe I need to upgrade to Exchange which I see is an option I have with Fasthosts but it costs.
Okay, if you're on SMTP, I couldn't help you, I've never used it.
Sorry, mate.
I am using the stock e-mail with exchange server. However, since I have server based filters that divert emails to specific folders, I am getting only the emails that arrive to my Inbox and not the other e-mails? Any solution to that problem before replacing the stock with something else (Moxier or touchdown)? Thanks
