E61i hangs when receiving email

Hi all,
I've got my great nokia E61i for a couple of weeks now, but I am experiencing something weird when receiving my emails (POP). When receiving my emails, I see the first email (header) coming in, but that's it. The meter stops moving and I can only wait for an error or press cancel. So when I have 10 emails, I have to get emails 10 times to have them all in my E61i. I have had many mobile devices, no problems with this issue ever.
Another issue is that after receiving the email(s), the connection with the server is still open. But i can bear with that.
Any ideas what (setting) can cause this? Thanks in advance for any answer.
I did the latest update:
2.0633.65.01
03-10-07
RM-227
Regards,
Peter

hi, Im new to the forum and new to the N73. Do they really delete references to 3rd party apps? Particularly the ones which are solving user problems?
The nokia implmentation of email is really poor. Even Windows mobile based devices have the ability to scan the IMAP body.
Only being able to see the headers is a real joke. Nokia is stuck in the past- POP3 is unsafe and few corporates permit its use.
Come on, even the Sony Ericsson phones have proper imap implmentations..!!
Nokia 5800 v21.0.025 RM-356 (Orange profile- when will they update??)
Nokia N73 (RM-133, OS v4.0735.3.0.2)
Nokia N85- DONT BUY, front plate fell off day 3, back panel moves. VERY cheap construction.

IPhone connections hangs when sending email after upgrade.

After upgrading to 2.0 firmware on my first generation IPhone, the phone now regulary hangs when sending email via smtp. Even if I try to close the connection by putting it into AirPlane mode and back again it still hangs and from that point onwards doesn't check or send any new emails. If I then shut the phone down and restart it looses the email as it's not either in the sent or outbox folders. This has happened quite a few times since upgrading. Does anybody have any advice?

Found this useful tidbit by mdwelsh231 on another thread:
"I'm having this problem too. Rather than rebooting the phone, an even easier solution is to hold down the Home button for several seconds (I believe it's 8 sec) which will kill the Mail application and return you to the home screen. Restarting Mail (by tapping the Mail icon) will cause it to reconnect. I find that this resolves the connection hanging issue. However, it is still kind of a pain. I suspect a bug in the 2.0 iPhone firmware. "
Worked for me

No alert sound when receiving email

Yes, it is selected in email setup, rebooted...tried it all, but no alert sound when receiving email
anyone with a fix, please help.

This sounds like a well-known problem which has been discussed over in the Mail discussions for quite a long time.
http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1338
Search there and on Google to see the variety of possible causes and fixes. Here is what appears to be a common cause and possible fix (which worked for me):

When receiving email, sometimes Tunderbird for Mac comes to the front of the screen. How can I stop this?

When receiving email (with Thunderbird for Mac), I usually get the notification bubble on the upper right. But sometimes the entire Thunderbird window comes to the front, and interrupts what I'm working on. Is there a way to stop this?
Thanks.

I have never heard of it happening to anyone else, so it makes any suggestion rather difficult. I don't think anyone has a clue, hence the dearth a answer in the past days

Outlook 2010 hangs when opening emails from a certain sender

I have a problem when we a receive a notification email from a certain sender. The email is actually from an internal address within the company. We receive email notifications when we receive a voice mail on our phone system and that email
is what is causing the problems. The email we receive is very basic and just has a small amount of text saying "IP Office Voicemail redirected message". When I try to open the email (or view when the reading pane is enabled) it hang Outlook
for about 20-30 seconds. This happens with every notification email we receive from that address. I tried locking up Outlook when it was hanging to see if I could get any error messages. In Event Viewer I got this:
"The program OUTLOOK.EXE version 14.0.7113.5000 stopped interacting with Windows and was closed. To see if more information about the problem is available, check the problem history in the Action Center control panel."
Things I have tried:
Clean install (of both Office and Windows)
Removing and recreating the Outlook profile
Setting Outlook to "Read all standard mail in plain text"
Updating Windows/Office
Setting our voice mail server to send from a different email address
Opening Outlook in safe mode
We are on a domain with Exchange. This started happening a couple of months ago.
Any ideas as to what I can try next?
Thanks.

Hi JW_IC,
Does this issue occur OWA?
If OWA not hangs, it seems an issue on the Outlook client side.
I found that you have done all operations on the Outlook client side and still not worked.
How about following the error message, "To see if more information about the problem is available, check the problem history in the Action Center control panel",
to check the problem in the Action Center control panel. Please paste the details without sensitive information for the further troubleshooting.
I suggest updating Outlook 2010 to the latest version for test.
Thanks

Mail app crashes when receiving email from a particular sender

HI All,
Here is a problem I'm facing, Mail App crashes while receiving email from a particular sender. I'm testing our new Email Hosting solution "Rackspace" and it works fine with all other Email clients or on deveices (Android, Windows Phone & Blackbarry) but on Iphone 4s (IOS 6.1.4, i guess) it crashes the Mail App.
The email I'm using is sending over to an email at ttv-asia.com domain. The user of ttv-asia.com is based in China and just to see if the problem is with the Iphone, I've tested the Iphone's Mail App in Hong Kong and it works normal.
So now... Im confused and have no Idea on how ro fix this.
~Ray
<Email Edited By Host>

Sorted, it seems that livemail configured for exchange and having Google premier for exchange, results in the mail app on the iPhone crashing, when selecting an email in the Google exchange mail box, then calling up the folders , it crashes. switched off livemail mail, worked fine.
Weird.
Google vs Microsoft, with a little help from Apple ???????????

Phone hangs when receiving calls

I have a E66 about 6 months old with the latest software (210.21.007) installed. When I receive a call, the phone hangs. All I can do is take the battery out and restart the phone. It happens about every 8th call or so.
Please help.
Thanks.

I just bought an E66 and I am having the exact same problem. The phone just hangs when I try to receive the call and I have to remove the battery to reset it.
This happens around every 8th call just like to previous poster, I am also running firmware 210.21.007
Will really appreciate if someone can give a solution for this as this is very irritating.

When receiving email, Thunderbird freezes and displays "Not Responding" in screen header. Adds popstate folder to account.

I'm running Thunderbird 31.6.0 on Windows 8.1 with BitDefender 2013.
PROBLEM:
When getting email, Thunderbird freezes and displays "Not Responding" in screen header.
When TB is closed then reopened, a popstate folder (popstate-1.dat) is added to account. A new popstate folder appears with each crash/freeze, and as long as they are not deleted, they pile up with unique numbers (popstate-1.dat, popstate-2.dat, etc.).
(see attached screenshot)
NOTE: I've included troubleshooting details below for all the fixes I tried, thinking it might be helpful to anyone who has a similar problem and is thinking about going down those paths. Ultimately, it seems that FIX ATTEMPT 5 is the winner.
==================================
FIX ATTEMPT 1:
Following the suggestion in this archived mozilla support post: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1026288, I restarted Thunderbird in Safe Mode (Help > Restart with Add-Ons disabled...), checking the "Disable all add-ons" and "Reset toolbars and controls" and clicking "Make Changes and Restart" button.
In Add-Ons Manager, BitDefender Toolbar now appears to be disabled.
(see attached screenshot)
But the problem persists.
FIX ATTEMPT 2:
Following the suggestion in this archived mozilla support post: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1016811, I clicked Help > Troubleshooting Information > Show Folder button. This opens a File Explorer window for 3I58b9dq.default (this is the "profile" folder) which contains panacea.dat and folderTree.json files.
I changed file names to panacea-changed.dat and folderTree-changed.json (rather than deleting them, in case I need to restore them), and I reopened Thunderbird.
This did not solve the problem -- and, furthermore, the profile folder seems to have automatically generated new panacea.dat and folderTree.json files to replace those for which I changed the filenames.
FIX ATTEMPT 3:
Following the suggestion in this mozilla support post: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1044774, I restarted Windows 8.1 in safe mode with networking enabled (using these instructions: http://www.howtogeek.com/107511/how-to-boot-into-safe-mode-on-windows-8-the-easy-way/.)
TB does not crash when Windows runs in safe mode, but the aspect ratio of my display is distorted; everything's really big and stretched horizontally, and my two displays are mirrored rather than extended. Running Windows perpetually in safe mode is not the ideal fix.
QUESTION 1: I understand that troubleshooting is supposedly done best in safe mode — What might I do in safe mode to diagnose the Thunderbird problem?
FIX ATTEMPT 4:
This article https://wiki.mozilla.org/Thunderbird:Testing:Antivirus_Related_Performance_Issues#Symptoms, suggests that problems with Thunderbird associated with BitDefender can be solved by uninstalling and re-installing BitDefender.
Not really comfortable uninstalling and re-installing, I disabled Bitdefender (Settings button > Antivirus button > Shield tab > On-Access Scanning toggle Off) to see if that would work. It did not fix the problem.
QUESTION 2: Would uninstalling BitDefender be any different than disabling it?
FIX ATTEMPT 5:
Create a Bitdefender Exclusion for the Thunderbird folder:
Settings button > Antivirus button > Exclusions tab > Excluded files and folders link > Add button > navigate to Thunderbird folder (c:\users\username\appdata\roaming\thunderbird) > Both radio button > Add button > OK button
THIS FIX DID THE TRICK! YAY!

FIX ATTEMPT #5 above did the trick, and now I see that it was the chosen solution for a similar post of the same problem at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1044774

Mail hangs when receiving new messages on .Mac

I'm using the latest mail and Tiger, but have had this issue for a few point updates.
I have a .Mac e-mail account, and can send messages with no problem. When Mail tries to receive a new, unread message, however, it hangs - the Activity window reads "Fetching New Mail" and even shows the subject header, but goes no farther. If I try to do anything else after this, such as changing folders or sending mail, everything hangs. Mail won't quit, either, so I have to force quit.
I've tried deleting the .plist file, moving the Mail folder, moving the Envelope Index. I have no third-party extras installed.
Help?
PowerBook G4 12" DVI Mac OS X (10.4.4)

I have exactly the same problem. I have two laptops, one running OS 10.6.2 and the other a G4 Powerbook running !0.5.8. On the Snow Leopard machine the iMap accounts (x4) are working fine, but hotmail mail and one Pop3 account both behave the same way - hanging indefinitely exactly half way through completion of the download of a couple of dozen emails, with download speed dropping to 0k. It has not been possible to download anything from either account now since November 6th. I have to check the mail on these two accounts via a web interface. The only solutions I have heard so far seem quite hit and miss. I am not particularly keen to do anything so radical as back up, reformat the hard drive, and re-instal the System / buy a new computer, or any of those other drastic fix-all-solutions sometims proposed when people cannot guess what is wrong. An informed work around would be very much appreciated.

We have tested this same scenario for several services and are experiencing the same result... timing out instead of returning the fault. This is a critical issue for us and would prevent us from implementing this software.

Change 'new form submission' text when receiving email from contact form.

Hi,
One of our clients has asked us to change the text they receive when they get an email from their contact form.
It currently says: 'new form submission'
they want it to say: 'West of the Moon ~ Ayr ~ Website Enquiry'
We have tried changing the name of the form but this only changes the subject in the email not the wording on the email. Is there any way to do this?

Hi Richard,
Please check the php script to which the web form submits to and then open that with a text editor and edit the verbiage that you want to there.
PS - You will need to make these changes after every export from Muse as Muse will override them on every export/upload.

Mail hang when getting email from multiple POP accounts

I'm posting this issue again.
Mail hangs while getting new mail from multiple POP accounts almost every time. When it does, only Force Quit can quit it.
The following DID NOT fix the hang:
- Reconstructing all mail boxes
- Exporting, deleting and reimporting all mail boxes
- Disabling all rules
- Deleting anti-spam history
- Deleting all emails from all mail boxes
Testing each POP account individually while putty the other two offline works fine.
I also noticed that sometimes the new mail counter in Inbox displays 2-4 new messages while there is no new ones. Switching boxes/folders and back to Inbox fixes it.
The POP accounts are:
One plain text POP
One secure POP
One GMail POP
Can anyone help?

You’re welcome.
I did try to clear the junk mail preferences
The Junk Mail preferences cannot be “cleared”. What do you mean?
it crashes almost every single time.
It doesn’t crash (i.e. quit unexpectedly). It freezes (i.e. becomes unresponsive), right?
I transfered my data to a Mac Mini. I had the same exact problem on it too!
so it seems it has nothing to do with the OS plugins or the setup I have.
Well, that would depend on what exactly does “I transfered my data” mean...
Try first disabling all the rules in Preferences > Rules AND the junk filter in Preferences > Junk Mail. If the problem persists, proceed as follows.
Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
After having fixed all the filesystem issues, if any, and ensuring that there’s enough space available on the startup disk (a few GB, plus the space needed to make a backup copy of the Mail folder), try this:
1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/. Make a backup copy of this folder, just in case something goes wrong, e.g. by dragging it to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down. This is where all your mail is locally stored.
3. Locate Envelope Index and move it to the Trash. If you see any other “Envelope Index”-named file there, delete it as well.
4. Move any “IMAP-”, “Mac-”, or “Exchange-” account folders to the Trash. Note that you can do this with IMAP-type accounts because they store mail on the server and Mail can easily re-create them. DON’T trash any “POP-” account folders, as that would cause all the mail stored there to be lost.
5. Open Mail. It will tell you that your mail needs to be “imported”. Click Continue and Mail will proceed to re-create Envelope Index — Mail says it’s “importing”, but it just re-creates the index if the mailboxes are already in Mail 2.x format.
6. As a side effect of having removed the IMAP account folders, those accounts may be in an “offline” state now. Do Mailbox > Go Online to bring them back online.
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. That is, ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder, i.e. /Users/username/Library.

Mail hangs when receiving messages

This past week, without any recent software/hardware changes or updates, Mail started hanging while new messages were coming in. I have three accounts set up-- two MobileMe which seem to not be the problem-- and one POP mail account with MSN. At first I thought the problem was a firewall issue because it happened on my laptop at work. However, when I bring the laptop (MBP) home and run it off Airport WiFi there, the problem persists, even though my home MacPro, set up the same way, works fine. Now, the only way to get out of Mail on my MBP is to force-quit. I've tried repairing permissions, replacing plists, deleting and re-creating mail accounts-- even transferring the working plist from my MacPro to my MBP. Regardless, incoming messages hang at "Incoming Message 16 of XX" with the kb/sec eventually slowing to 0.0 in the Mail Activity window. Anyone with a similar problem or luck with a fix? I'm running latest Mail and Snow Leopard versions.

I have exactly the same problem. I have two laptops, one running OS 10.6.2 and the other a G4 Powerbook running !0.5.8. On the Snow Leopard machine the iMap accounts (x4) are working fine, but hotmail mail and one Pop3 account both behave the same way - hanging indefinitely exactly half way through completion of the download of a couple of dozen emails, with download speed dropping to 0k. It has not been possible to download anything from either account now since November 6th. I have to check the mail on these two accounts via a web interface. The only solutions I have heard so far seem quite hit and miss. I am not particularly keen to do anything so radical as back up, reformat the hard drive, and re-instal the System / buy a new computer, or any of those other drastic fix-all-solutions sometims proposed when people cannot guess what is wrong. An informed work around would be very much appreciated.

Stop phone vibrating when receiving emails in silent mode

Hi,
I have an iphone 4 and the iOS5 update.
I mainly have my phone switched to silent mode which is fine for receiving texts and calls as I prefer it to vibrate, but how can I stop it vibrating every time I receive an email without disabling silent mode?
Thanks

If I remember correctly, Apple has been experimenting with the vibrate-for-emails feature in the iOS 5 betas. The phone would vibrate for new email message on one beta and they'd drop it again for the next. Seems like it has made its way to the final iOS 5 and thus you won't be able to disable it selectively. One alternative, though not really a good solution, is to check for new mail manually and not have the phone do that for you on an intervall or via push.

What list do they use to know who to trust? When receiving email prints

I want to choose the option of only accepting email prints from people I know. What list do they use to know who to trust?

If this is not a wireless network, this may all be rubbish!
To which computer is the Linksys ADSL cable attached? If it is the PC, than the"Internet sharing" is done on the PC, so the Apple needs to log on to an existing connection. The Linksys will probably need to be told the Mac address of the Apple so that it gives the Apple permission to log on (Airport address - same thing). The Apple will need to have the Password to log on to the network- you should have set up a WEP password when setting up the router. They also need to be on the same Network i.e. both on WORKGROUP, or whatever. You need to set your FIREWALL to allow Internet, file and printer sharing. (The XP built in firewall doesn't seem have this option).
You should see your Apple on the network, you log on to it by double clicking the icon, typing your Mac "Short name" into the "User name" slot, and your Apple's password into.... wait for it..... the PASSWORD slot
On the Apple, from Finder>go>network this should bring up a panel with a folder with your network name on it, clicking on this folder should bring up the name of your computer, clicking on this should then invite you to open folders on your PC (Assuming you've set up a shared folder(s)).
If your printer is plugged into your PC..... Have fun!
Hope this helped - I'm sure that this is the sequence I used to, eventually, get mine talking. But different routers (Mine's Netgear) and different Firewalls may have different rules, but the principle will be pretty similar.
