Automatically detect read emails from Hotmail

If I receive an email on my hotmail account and I read it on my computer, it isn't marked as 'read' on my iPhone. Instead, I have to go to my email application and open the email manually. This also happens the other way around: if I read an email from my hotmail account on my iPhone, I have to open it on my computer to mark it as 'read' there.
This is really annoying when you get like 10 Facebook emails or something in a short amount of time.
With Gmail this is not the case: if I read something on my iPhone, it's also read on my computer and vice versa.
Is there any way to fix this issue?
Thanks,
Joffysloffy.

Well, part of the problem is I understand so little, I can't even probably answer your questions.
I set up Hotmail using Mail by clicking on Apple's provided "Hotmail" option, not "Microsoft Exchange."  This is where the problem began, i.e., reading emails on my laptop or vice versa on my iPhone would not cause the other venue to show as "read."
Per this article, I sent up Hotmail as an Exchange account.  http://www.macworld.com.au/print/16006  This seems to have rectified the problem.
Thanks for the help.

  • Mail 5.0 doesn't Download Email from Hotmail

    Hi,
    Mail 5.0 Doesn't Download Email from Hotmail,
    The other days he could,
    What can i do?

    In the preferences file, it already shows that my signature belongs to my mail account.  In fact, everything is precisely how I had it setup before Lion upgraded the mail program.  According to Mail - Preferences - Signatures, my signature should be automatically appended to my email, but the compose window doesn't allow me to select the signature.  It only shows that there are no signatures and gives me an option to open the preferences file.
    My point is that the preferences are set up correctly.  Something else is broken here.

  • Cannot open emails from Hotmail

    I am having trouble opening emails from Hotmail in the Mail tool.  I have other email accounts that are working fine.  It worked prior to yesterday.  The various messages that I have seen are:
    "Cannot get mail"
    "Cannot connect to server"
    Even old messages that I had previously viewed are not available.  When I try to open them, I just get the "Loading . . ." message.
    I am also seeing this same problem with the same account on my iPad.

    This seems to fit.  I use Outlook.  I sent a test email and it went through fine.  My Inbox seems to be working now, but other folders are not.  Thanks for the quick reply!

    Because it does not, it means there are errors. And as the error you've posted is not an Oracle SQL or PL/SQL error, your question is off-topic to this forum.
    Why would the code not work at run-time? Numerous reasons, including environmental ones. Java inside Oracle are subjected to a number of restrictions and limitations that do not exist in a Java VM outside Oracle (for good reasons).
    So you need to consider that too - and that is why I referred you to the documentation... which is IMO mandatory reading for all Oracle developers.

  • Reading emails from Faxcom server with javamail 1.4.2

    Our JavaMail-based application reads up to 60,000 emails a day. We recently upgraded to JavaMail 1.4.2 to get more leniency reading poorly formatted messages. So far, it's looking great. We only experienced one issue. Upon upgrading, we stopped being able to receive multiparts sent via Faxcom product. To resolve this, we set the property:
    mail.mime.multipart.ignoreexistingboundaryparameterto "false". If it is set to true, it will not be able to read emails from the Faxcom product that were previously successful using JavaMail 1.4.1. Basically, the API returns zero for the multipart count. If you are setting some of the new leniency parameters, I would recommend keeping this "false" unless it solves some specific problem.
    Just wanted to post this to see if anyone had experienced the same problem, and to share the solution.

    Thanks Bill, I will try setup a simple program to reproduce, or see if I can reproduce with one of the JavaMail sample programs - I also have a FaxCom mailbox setup for testing.
    We are also still having trouble consuming a few messages that have a broken Content Type field:
    08:37:05.996 INFO: (EmailServer.processMultipart-Thread-21) Inside Content Type: text/plain
    name="incoming.txt"
    javax.mail.internet.ParseException: Expected ';', got "NAME"
    at javax.mail.internet.ParameterList.<init>(ParameterList.java:280)
    at javax.mail.internet.ContentType.<init>(ContentType.java:110)
    ...etc..
    I will also look and find out which mail client that came from. Maybe the solution here is trying to ask the sender to fix/upgrade/switch mail clients.
    But other than these 2 occasional problems, 1.4.2 is working great in production and we are getting a lot fewer failures.

  • Why "Outlook Express" users can't read email from Mail.app ?

    Why "Outlook Express" users can't read email from Mail.app ? Any explanation ? Select a good format,that's a good explanation,but i can't know each time if our recipients use "Outlook Express".

    There are no completely bug free email clients including the Mail.app and Outlook has its share of bugs for such an old/mature email clients and some glaring ones that MS has been aware of for a long time but has chosen not to do anything about since these do not affect exchanging email with other Outlook users.
    Outlook has always had problems with Mail's RTF and the degree depending on the Windows and Outlook versions used by the recipient.

  • How to read emails from Microsoft Exchange Server

  • Reading emails from gmail by labview

    I easily found a sample program to send an email to Gmail in LabVIEW and it works well. But I want to read emails from Gmail in LabVIEW as well. Is this possible? Thanks
    Jay
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Well, not so much a duplicate post, since that post was asking about reading attachments. This is asking about getting emails from Gmail.
    To OP: Your question is not clear. Are you trying to download emails from your Gmail account? If so, you first need to configure Gmail to turn on the POP service. I don't think this is enabled by default. The Gmail help documents tell you how to do this. Once you've done that, you can just use a POP client. You can start by trying the one posted in this thread, but be aware, that sometimes servers have their own little "quirks", as alluded to in that thread.

  • Read email from multiple machines

    Hi, I have an intel macbook and imac and am looking for an efficient way to read email from both machines. I currently use POP and have to check both machines to be sure I don't miss any mail. Is there a simple way of making the imac an IMAP mail server and use the macbook to read only?

    If you set up an IMAP email account, you can read, send and delete your mail on any mac, which has your IMAP account set up. Because all your mail data etc is stored on the server, not on your computer. Think of it as a form of "web mail" but accessible through your email program (Mail and Entourage)

  • Email from hotmail

    Can I get emails from hotmail to come directly to my iphone(1.0.2) & how?

    nu2mac...Sorry to say, MSN/Hotmail is an http based protocol which is not supported by the iPhone. You can add it in if you purchase MSN's premium email upgrade which is more expensive then the alternative.
    I have an msn account also and found izymail.com to work perfectly with my outlook and iPhone. It converts your msn account into a POP3 or IMAP account which "will" work on your iPhone. I used the IMAP build and it works perfectly.
    Going to the website will give you instructions on how to set up.
    Good Luck
