IMAP email bug - help required to resolve

Hi...
I am trying to set up IMAP on my new HP Touchpad. The problem is, my touchpad won't download any emails.
After creating an account, the touchpad is able to recognise the folder structure of my email account, and I can send messages. However, my inbox and all other folders appear empty. These folders are definitely populated with thousands of emails, and I have no problem accessing them with IMAP on my Ipod Touch or through my computer. The touchpad must be successfully linked in to both the IMAP and SMTP servers (since I get my folder structure, and can send messages). However, no matter how many times I try to refresh the inbox, the touchpad won't download a single email.
I have tried reinstalling the accounts and a complete reset of the ipad but no joy. I get no error messages of any kind - just empty folders.
I have created a log file after recreating the problem. Let me know if this is useful.
Help please!
Harry

Hi...
Thanks for the quick response. Unfortunately this hasn't resolved the issue.
Default folders were already assigned for my account. I tried assigning different ones, or unassigning but this didn't make any difference.
I'm pretty sure my email provider doesn't require a root folder. There's no mention of it in their help topics, and I've never assigned one in the past when I set up email on my Ipod Touch. This is what they say about setting up IMAP
IMAP Settings
=========
Incoming Mail Server: imap.mailanyone.net
Outgoing Mail Server: smtp.mailanyone.net
Incoming (IMAP) Port: 143
Outgoing (SMTP) Port: 25
"SMTP requires authentication" should be ticked.
Optional Security settings
================
"Use Secure Connections": can be ticked or unticked and will still work.
"Use Secure Authentication": tick if secure connection is set to "never" and untick if secure connection is set to "SSL"
I feel like this must be a bug with the way the email app is trying to communicate with their IMAP server, but I really need to iron it out!
Thanks again
Harry

How do I fix my IMAP email bug?

I just tried to switch my email accounts from POP to IMAP. I created new IMAP accounts and then deactivated the POP accounts (this may have been the wrong order to do this in). Mail is now confused and deleting all of my email. If I send an email to the IMAP account, it will appear there, but as soon as I select it, it disappears. It also disappears if I refresh it with Get Mail. I checked the server with webmail and the emails are getting deleted there as well. Based on what I have seen elsewhere, I believe this may be a problem with the UID getting assigned to each message getting confused due to the pre-existing POP account. Does anyone know how to get Mail to simply forget these accounts and let me start from scratch? I have tried deleting all the accounts and restarting Mail, but I continue to see the problem. I am getting the mail at multiple computers, which is why I'm switching to IMAP. Do I have to reset the accounts on all these machines? Thanks.

Help required to resolve -200022 error

Hi all,
I have a VI that is throwing the -200022 error (after the DAQ mx). This has got 5 data acquisition channels out of which 2 of them (THERMOCOUPLE Channel1 & Pressure sensors - Channel 1 commented on the left inside the program) are throwing this error and not reading anything sensible and the program stops. However the other channels are reading proper values. When I checked them individually it works perfectly alright but when I put them together in the same program it is throwing the above error.
I looked into some of the solutions suggested but nothing has helped. Can anyone help me resolve this error. I have attached the VI as well.
Many thanks,
Ramji

You're using 'On-Board Clock' for all of three Tasks (thermocouple measurement) and its causing conflict..!!

E72 - strange email issue - help required

Started having a strange problem with my email today. On all accounts set up (hotmail, googlemail, ovi) but not on mail for exchange, my inboxes are emptying themselves completely so that there are no messages in the inbox and then re-populating themselves with all messages, then emptying again and so on. It is happening in a continuous cycle. Emails are all there, then one by one deleted before my eyes, the back again one by one, and then they go etc..
Haven't seen this problem mentioned before. Anyone have any ideas? It's been working fine for over a month until today.

Thanks hadimassa. Been looking here and on the the messaging board, but can't see any of those threads discussing this. Can you point me in the direction of one please. Any solutions posted anywhere? Tempted to try and delete my email accounts from nokia messaging and then re-add them to see if that helps, but don't know if that will open a whole new can of worms. It's literally happening on a 5 minute cycle, which is just eating up data and battery, so need to try and solve pretty urgently.

Two email bugs that require Apple's attention

I am converting over from a Blackberry that I use to check my POP email account hosted by my ISP. Here are the two major problems I've encountered so far with receiving emails on my iPhone:
1) If an attachment (.doc .xls .pdf) is attached to an email written in MS Outlook and the body is formated as HTML or Rich Text, the attachment won't open on the iPhone. If sent with the body formatted as Plain text or if sent from Yahoo or Mac Mail, it opens fine. This is a major problem for me since I work with 100's of clients that live in the Wintel universe, and they aren't going to change their email formatting for my convenience...
2) I am having trouble doing a Receive from my MS Outlook 2003 to check my POP email account, it keeps returning an error saying "Your mailbox is temporarily unavailable because another mail application is accessing it." If I power down the iPhone, Send/Receive works fine. That workaround pretty much negates the value of having a cell phone, since I can't receive cell calls if the iPhone is powered down so that I can get emails on my PC while sitting in my office.
Anyone else having these problems??? How about we all call them in to Apple Support, I have to believe this should be able to be fixed with a software update, vs. many of the petty gripes that I'm seeing on this forum.

I think in your situation it would be worth trying the things listed under the event. It does have to do with FRS and it's easy to do. I've used it to fix journal errors after a server unexpectedly restarts and sysvol stops replicating. I
could see where it could fix your issue, and if it doesn't, you're out 5 minutes. :)

Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.

We've seen this bug on machines running IE6 with a certain security patch (I forget its number). There's a thread in the Metalink reports forum about it. It appears to be somewhat tied to another problem where IE runs the report twice (you can see that in Showjobs. You're seeing the problem in 6i; I believe it persists in 9i.
The workarounds are (1) set Acrobat so it doesn't open within IE or (2) switch to a different browser, like Netscape. For workaround 1, Start Acrobat Reader, Choose File -> Preferences -> General, Uncheck Web Browser Integration
There's some evidence that it occurs more often with urls that include single quote characters. I think it's worse with XP, but I don't have any proof.
If you check Adobe's site, you will see this isn't just an Oracle Reports problem. I think we're waiting for Microsoft on this one, so don't hold your breath for a quick fix.

IMAP email deleted on desktop remains in iPhone inbox

Seems like people are seeing a variety of email problems with the new iOS 4. I flipped through the first 6 pages or so of topics and did not see my particular issue.
I am using my university IMAP email service. If I read and delete email using the Apple Mail client on Mac OS 10.6.4, it still remains in my iPhone inbox, showing as unread. I am using iOS 4 on the iPhone 4. I also have an iPad, and using the same mail settings, the iPad inbox syncs fine with the IMAP server. On my previous iPhone 3G, everything worked fine. I did notice similar behavior with the 3G after my iOS 4 update, but I sold that phone soon after, so I wasn't able to test this fully.
I have tried killing the Mail background process, restarting the phone, hitting "load more messages" on my iPhone, refeshing in the inbox, deleting the mail account and re-entering manually, syncing the mail account from my Mac or entering the info manually on the phone. Nothing has resolved my issue.
Interestingly, I also use another IMAP client as well, from FastMail.fm, and I do not notice the problem here. Maybe the bug only manifests itself with certain mail server software.
Anyhow, it looks like another mail bug in the new iOS. Anybody else noticing a similar issue?

they are not blank emails, they just look blank. I just got hit by this yesterday accidentally clicked on am email sent 12/31/1969 and its been a bain. It vanished but later I found it lurking in my drafts folder of my 3G iPhone updated with 4.1OS. It changes dates when you try to delete it. And in one case, it changed its message to show the first line of javascript code. It's installing something or trying to. First line reads $(window).load(function() {2 3 initial... so I assume its starting some initialization process and that its malware.
I am using gmail. Computers seem fine, iPhone is weird. I changed passwords to something the iPhone wouldn't know. I did so on two different computers. And that seemed to stop everything. Ok, it stopped my phones email connection. Till I could figure this out. Or I thought. For last night when on the phone a call got interupted. I called back, no big deal, dropped call, but when I got off the phone I noticed I had an email. Something had come in. It arrived during the minute of that dropped call. It was a nice email announcing the birth of friends first child. Wonderful news. But it shouldn't have shown up on the phone.
Since then I've been to see the Apple Genius' bar, the drafts folder that would not delete, cleared itself out magically before I arrived at Apple, but I have pictures of it and that line of js in my camera. Due to the range of odd behaviors the OS has been reinstalled. Good. Then I restored my phone to a backup version. Fine. And now, with right password set up, it intermittently tells me it does not recognize the password and then try again and its all good and then its not. Some folders update with the time stamp, others don't. I can send but I have not received in the 50 minutes even tho I've sent myself test emails from other devices. Also noticed, I cannot deselect my drafts folder, nor that it is backed up on some other server. Is this normal?
What is this thing and how can I kill it?
But, whatever it is, its not blank, it just looks blank.
Open to suggestions / insights. Would prefer not to completely rebuild from scratch.

Remote Search on IMAP email

The option 'Remote Search' does not appear at the bottom of the search results of either of my IMAP emails set up on my Z10. Remote Search used to work perfectly with my old iPhone 3G and the same email providers. Is Remote Search supported on IMAP email in which case how do I turn it on?

It also depends on the email service provider and the device. For example, Google removed Active Sync for all but paid Google Apps subscribers and grandfathered devices (those already setup using EAS.) I have a Z10 that I can access EAS and remote search with GMail and another, that I acquired later after Google dropped EAS, that has to connect via IMAP and I get no remote search.

I have an iPad with IMAP email accounts set up but I can find no "inbox, drafts, trash" folders anywhere, either on my ipad or desktop Mac. How can I set them up? They do not show on my MacMail preferences either and I can find no way to add them.

I have an iPad with IMAP email accounts set up but can find no "inbox, drafts, trash" folders for each email account anywhere on my iPad or in Mac Mail. How can I set them up? I can't find anyway to set them up anywhere. Thanks

Hello blu monkey,
I found some resources that I think might help with the visibility of your IMAP email folders on your iPad and Mac.
On your iPad, you may need to follow the steps in this article to make sure your folders are visible:
iOS: If IMAP Mail folders are not visible
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1393
On your Mac, I am not sure if you have the sidebar enabled, but you can enable it using the steps in the article below. When this is showing, you should see your email account listed near the bottom with a triangle next to it. When the triangle is pointing down, it should show your folders:
Mail (Mountain Lion): Show or hide the sidebar

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

How do you set the time period on IMAP email accounts (razr maxx)

Hi Guys -
Does anyone know how you can set the time period that the stock email will keep the already downloaded messages for IMAP email accounts?
Mine never seems to show more than a couple of days worth at a time. I'd ideally like to be able to see at least 2 weeks worth of messages without needing to download them again!
On other phones I've had there was a setting in the menu, but either I can't find it...or it's not there. I've found the setting for how OFTEN it checks the accounts, but not the setting I am seeking.
Your help is appreciated!
Best Wishes for the Holiday Season.
-Rich

Hey Rich. Once in 'settings,' there should be a "days to sync' under the 'data usage' section. You don't have that?

How can I make my imap email not take the emails off the server?

How can I make my imap email not take the emails off the server when I delete them on my iPad?
Can anyone help me whith this?
I tried to use the pop account in gmail settings but that was downloading all my emails sice 2008 ( more than 300 deleted emails tha can only be found in the deleted email box), when I just have 5 or 6 email in the inbox .
How can I solve this????
Thank u all...

I have the same problem. For years I have been able to delete emails from my ipad and have them remain on the server so I can deal with them on the desktop. Now they get deleted from the server when deleted from the ipad, which makes the ipad unless for reading mail.
You answered to delete the email account on the ipad and set up a new one as a pop. I have made many attempts to do that in the incomping mail server "Host Name" field but it always errors out even when the host name is equal to what my desk top has. So I can see no way to change away from IMAP. I started with an ipad 1 and now have an ipad 2.
