When I go to email and enter my password, it says "Connecting" then Logging on..." but then it goes back to the screen asking for my passwords, followed by this error message:
Messaging
Cannot connect to the incoming mail server. Be certain that your login information is correct, then try again to send and receive mail.
I know my info is correct because I can access my gmail through the Tilt 2's browser as well as on other computers. I'm currently using monx's ROMeOS ROM but this was happening on other ROMs too. How can I fix?

Do you have IMAP/POP3 enabled in your google options? You have to have that setup first before you can access/sync using poutlook.
Previously my Fuze always worked and this new Tilt 2 did sometimes.
After reading your suggestion. I went into my gmail settings. IMAP was enabled and POP was not. I enabled POP but it did not help. Hmm.
I realize there is a fix for WM6.1 but is there anything for WM6.5? I can't be the only one to experience this problem.
Nothing? Please?

I noticed that your login is also case sensitive. So let's asume you entered Cam123 as a login but try cam123. That solved my connection problems
did you use the email wizzard, or did you put the settings for the email setup there youre self?
I had the same issue with my email account.... problem whas/is that when windows checks online for settings, it downloads the wrong settings (incomming & outgoing mailserver were wrong)
Then I used the email wizzard, and that worked great! all settings work correct ...
hope this helps you.
Good luck!
Thank you but it's not a case-sensitive issue.
I entered my gmail account information by going to Email, then entering the data.
Hey there everyone, just wanted to see if anyone's experienced the same problems as I have.
So I have 2 email accounts with gmail, one personal and one work account. I've enabled both of these accounts in both the mail app and the gmail app, and set notifications to be true for both accounts in each app.
Whenever a new email is sent however, it doesn't seem like the default mail app sends any notifications. Another thing is that even when I go into the app and force a sync, the icon on Home will only show the unread count for only 1 of the accounts.
I am still rather confused as to whether 'Sync Automatically' has to be turned on along with either WIFI/Mobile Internet to be able to receive notifications? Do you need to have 'Sync Automatically' enabled all the time, or would an active WIFI connection suffice?
Thanks in advance!
*Update*
It seems the Gmail App works fine, but not the Mail app regardless of whether only one or both are running... any ideas?
Bumping this up...
Anyone experience any problems with the default mail notifications?
Hi
I`ve a big problem with HTC-Mail.
I have HTC-Mail configured as follows:
- POP3
- T-Mobile.de settings
- "Delete Mail on Server" = no
HTC-mail delete emails on the server.The option "Delete Mails on Server" is not select. If I will empty the trash then the emails deleted on the server!
The same effect when the option is select. The same effect when the option is selected.
I`ve the problem with Stock- and Custom-ROM (Modaco, Pay`s)
Does anyone have the same problem?
Can anyone help me?
Sorry for my bad english!
Johnny
The problem must be just with pop. IMAP does not seem to suffer from this issue.
I've got pop setup and that doesn't delete mail.
Is there no solution to the problem of pop3?
I need pop not imap

The solution is probably to choose another mail client. I've often heard K9 mail recommended, but since I use Gmail I've not bothered to take a look.
I suspect that the issue you are having with your device is that the "Delete Mails on Server" option is really referring to what the app should do after it has downloaded new emails - not to what you subsequently do with the email.

Afaik, pop has a option to keep mails on server. Imap will keep them there anyways. You should have no probs with that option set.
Edit. Will check when i get home. I could ofc be wrong
Ok:
My settings:
Gmail: pop3/imap forwarding:
Pop download: Keep Gmail's copy in inbox
On the desire the same as yours. It hasn't deleted a single mail since i got my desire.
I think if it's a problem it's a problem with gmail, since i doubt the phone can tell the server what to do.

I have the same problem with HTC's e-mail application.
I am using pop3 and havn't checked the option to delete mail on server but it still does it. Really annoying.
It's almost certainly a problem with the HTC mail app. I have the same issue with a POP account that I have; doesn't seem to make a difference whether the '..mail on server' is on or off.
It also re-downloads emails continously unless they have been deleted from another source (web client or Outlook).
K9 seems to ok but stills needing polishing up. It does have many options that that built in one doesnt' marking emails being one.
Me having this problem with POP too. So I switched to IMAP
I do not have these problems, but if t-mobile does not support IMAP (which is imho better than POP3), try K-9 Mail:

Just saw this thread - on my Incredible with stock Froyo the HTC email application uses POP3 with my email server and has an option in Settings for "Delete emails on server" unchecked most times.
I say most times because it will, at seemingly random times, re-check that option and delete mail directly from the server that I've just viewed and deleted through the phone UI. This option has seemingly self-flipped a few times since I've had Froyo and seems to be a bug.

Anyone experiencing an issue with email notifications? I have my gmail account and my business exchange accounts configured on my phone but I'm not receiving any notifications for either account.
Yes I've checked the settings and I have "Email Notifications" Checked as well as "Notification Sound" But no notifications at all.
I notice that same issue also and cannot figure out why i get no notificaton sound with email

Are you using a gmail account?
Did you do any of the "Battery Saving" techniques? if yes, start there.
some things that were suggested in some of those links would disable/impair/hamper things like ActiveSync and such.
Are you checking the server manually or letting the phone check it automatically?
If your doing it manually you will get no notification, this drove me nuts to until I figured it out.
I noticed this started last night. Worked fine all day yesterday.
I am using the Email app from Samsung. I have it synching to both Gmail, and to a Yahoo account. It notifies me for the Yahoo, but not the Gmail.
Now, I had turned off Gmail notification in the Gmail app, as I had gotten dual notifications: one from Gmail, one from Email. But now I find I am not getting notification from the Email app for Gmail, although I do for Yahoo. So, I have turned Gmail notification back on, and I do get notification from it. But of course then in the notification bar, it takes me to Gmail app, and I prefer to use the Email app.
Any suggestions?

Afraid I don't have any suggestions since I've worked all weekend trying to fix the problem. If it's any consolation the yahoo mobile mail update site has dozens of irate comments. Seems as if the new update (around Dec 12) is the culprit. Don't find anything from Yahoo but surely they'll get it fixed before long.

Hmmm...maybe I didn't write it up clearly. The Yahoo site is notifying fine (again, in the Samsung Email app). Googlel is not.

Here's the link. You might be interested to see if anyone else has your specific problem.

For what it's worth. I found a copy of the old yahoo mail apk, uninstalled the current version, installed the old version and it worked perfectly. Unfortunately, yahoo automatically upgraded in less than an hour. Tried it again with the same results. Found out that you cannot stop upgrades. If you have time, I'd like for you to try the old version just to see if your results are the same.
Turn off automatic upgrades?

What would trying Yahoo have to do with me not receiving notifications from Gmail in the Samsung email app?

I had just done that and posted a note with results back on the yahoo web site before seeing your post. I wasted many hours this past weekend that could have been spent watching football if I had had your insight. Anyhow I appreciate your advice and the following is the note I sent along for other frustrated yahoo users:
A possible temporary fix for Yahoo Mail
I have at least temporarily fixed my non-notification problem with the new update of Yahoo Mail. First I opened google market, uninstalled yahoo mail, while in market I opened menu and unchecked automatic updating. I then downloaded yahoo mail 1.4.5 apk and installed it. This can be found on numerous sites after googling. After signing in I opened the app went to menu and picked the notification procedures I wanted. I'm on a galaxy s3 and so far so good. Seems to be holding.

Don't know for sure but it seems likely that you're seeing a conflict between similar programs. One is probably establishing precedence. I had a number of similar problems this weekend when I was trying to use light flow along with gmail and stock mail and yahoo. When I would get one working the others wouldn't. Finally had stock mail and yahoo working but notification was a sometime thing. I'll be if you reinstall yahoo apk 1.4.5, yahoo will work as a stand alone program and the others will work as expected. Let me know.

Interesting.
I have two programs: gMail, and eMail. I don't have Yahoo installed. With that theory, it seems adding a third app would add to the problem.
It is interesting that the email app will notify when I receive messages from Yahoo email, but not Gmail.But I think you may be right about some kind of conflict. It's also interesting that when on ICS, both alerted for Gmail. So I would get double notification. So I had turned off notification in Gmail for the inbox, but left it on for a particular folder (I wish the email program would let me set different notifications for different labels, like Gmail will).
I doubt I can uninstall Gmail, but maybe I can. I might try uninstall it and see if I get notifications from the Email one, and then reinstall and see what happens.
OH, by the way, I too have Lifghtflow installed. ANd while writing this post I had my wife send me a test email to my Gmail account. The light came on for LIgfhtwave, but neither app notified. I may just try turning on sounds, etc, and do it all from Lightwave.
Ugh...but then I may still have issues with the other Gmail folder.
I'll keep status posted here.

I don't think you can uninstall gmail. However, what I did was to go to settings, then app manager, highlight gmail, delete data, and then force close. That takes it out of commission for awhile and gives you time to try other things. Don't know what brings it back to life after a FC but I know that a reboot does bring it back. I've been messing around with android devices for a few years and it seems that the S3 is the most unforgiving and most demanding of protocol of any yet. But I really do like it.

I have tested some things. My initial setup was no Gmail account in the Samsung Email app, and no sync for Gmail in my Google account's settings.
So I activated auto-sync of Gmail in my Google account's settings on my phone. Then, I added my Gmail account to Email app. I added my Gmail account as an Exchange ActiveSync type account, so it would use push-email (instead of polling with POP3/IMAP).
On my computer, I opened Gmail webmail and sent myself an email.
- Within seconds, Email app rang and showed me a notification in my notifications bar.
- Waited a couple of minutes, but the Gmail app would not show a notification. I went to my Google account's settings and clicked Sync all. Now, Gmail app synced and rang and added a notification in the notification bar.
I guess I was just too impatient and did not wait long enough before Gmail app sync, but the two apps (Gmail and Email) show me notifications. You might want to try configuring your Gmail account as an Exchange account in Email. (What Are the Gmail Exchange ActiveSync Settings?)
