Manual Email Retrieve being Ignored??
I am in Thailand, and I just got a message from AT&T that my data bill is $500 after 30 days. I have had Data Roaming turned "OFF" for the majority of my trip. I have Email retrieval set to MANUAL at all times.
I have turned on Data Roaming for a split second to send someone an email, and every single time, my phone repeatedly - repeatedly - repeatedly retrieves my email despite the fact that its set to MANUAL retrieve. I do not remember it doing this automatically when I first got it.
The AT&T reps (3 different ones) told me that mail WILL BE RETRIEVED NO MATTER WHAT unless I have both DATA ROAMING "Off" and "MANUAL" selected. Think that sentence over for a moment.
Either this phone is not working properly (as per basic logic), or something is very wrong. When data roaming is ON and MANUAL is set, it should NOT retrieve email unless I initiate it. Period! What is the point of a manual setting if its going to automatically retrieve?
I now have a $500 data bill. Who is going to pay it? Im sure not!
Okay so your response is "Cuz".
Guess what? Before they added the "Turn off Data Roaming" option four months ago, "the way the software worked" was to have data roaming on all the time, and people got bills for $50,000 (literally). Helpful people like yourself could have said "Thats just how the software works".
If it isnt painfully clear at this point, I am raising an issue that "the way the software works" is faulty.
As for your hindisght and equally unhelpful continuous mention of the "Manual", may I remind you that Apple brags about the iPhone being so intuitive that a manual is "not needed" and therefore intentionally does not include one with the sale of the phone. In addition to this, the day I bought mine, I asked the apple store rep if I should get the manual and he told me "Nah! The phone is meant to be user friendly, you really dont need it". Well guess what...
The bottom line is this: JUST LIKE the data roaming OFF button needed to be "added to the software" a few months ago, the software needs to be modified to NOT download "DATA" without user permission. I should be able to send an email without downloading 25 emails from my inbox against my will. This is no different than people being billed $50,000 for data that the phone downloaded against their will, and the Apple people agreed. Sorry that you don't.

I understand this issue has been mentioned previously but will reiterate it in the hopes of a Palm fix.
I have set my Pre to only retrieve Gmail manually. However, whenever I enter or reenter a Sprint service area, it downloads my Gmail. The manual option should negate this but it does not.
If there is indeed a fix to this please pass it on to me.
Thanks,

Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)I'm hang the same issue with my multiple IMAP accounts as well. Despite all of them being configured as such:
On a fresh reboot, I can watch my servers logs and see it login via IMAP after which it shows a new mail indicator as such:
It definitely appears to be ignoring the "Get EMail" -> "Manual" setting and is still fetching even without having opened the Mail reader app.
Can anyone from Palm shed some light on the problem? -
My name is David and I've been a Verizon Wireless customer for the past few years. A couple of months ago, I began having issues with a brand new jetpack device. The device was using absurd amounts of data and I had no clue why. I contacted customer service and eventually got in touch with (removed) Smith, a supervisor. We talked about three times over the phone, on separate occasions, trying to figure out what was causing the problem. We reset the device, changed the password, etc., but nothing was fixing the problem. In the meantime, I had taken multiple steps to make sure nothing was using the data on my end. I set up a metered connection, which tracked exactly how much data went through my computer and it was not even close to what the jetpack was saying, despite being the only device connected to it. Ms Smith gave me her email address to stay in closer contact with her while we were trying all of the steps to fix the issue, so I could let her know exactly what I was seeing. The email address she gave me was (removed) Our contact first started in November and she sent me the first email on 12/1/13. The device began using even more data, now at a very alarming rate. In one night, it used 12.5 GBs of data. I spoke with her again on 12/14/13 when I first noticed how much data it had been using. She eventually sent me a new device, stating that the one I had was faulty and she wanted me to let her know when I got the new one so she could monitor the activity and see if it was following the same pattern or if it was acting normal. It ended up working 100% fine and not like the faulty device I had sent back in. She had told me over the phone that she would fix all of the overage charges from when I first got the device since it was messed up. She gave me credit for the total of overage from the first 3 months with the device, but she hadn't fixed the bill that had used 55 GBs of data, which was the last cycle in which I had that particular device.
The last time I heard from Ms. Smith was on 12/31/13 when she had told me she was going to fix the charges. In the meantime, I was left waiting to hear that the fourth and final month had been taken care of, so the $460 worth of overages was still sitting on my bill. On 12/31/13, she emailed me asking for my number to reach me on so she could call me that day. I responded with my number, but never received a call. A week later on 1/6/14, I emailed her again with my number, telling her that I wasn't sure if she had received my email or not, but I was still waiting. As of 1/21/14, I had still not received a call, so I emailed her again telling her I needed to talk to her ASAP so we could get everything resolved and I could pay my bill. I also mentioned that I needed to have my data plan changed back to normal (16 GBs) rather than the 30 GB plan because it was too much. I had been bumped up to 30 GBs during that big month of overages, to try and prevent extra charges. A little less than a week later on 1/26/14, I emailed Ms. Smith once again, telling her I was worried about my service getting cut off and I needed to speak with her ASAP. I mentioned that I did not want to have to start from scratch with someone else.
On 2/6/14, I woke up to discover that my service had indeed been turned off. I called and spoke with someone in customer service, explaining what had been going on. I was told by that representative that her supervisor would call me between 8-10 PM that night, but in the meantime my service would be temporarily restored. I never received a call. Around 10:30, I called back to try and speak with someone else. I was put through to another representative, once again having to explain what had been going on. This representative told me that I would have to wait for a call back from his supervisor, because he would be leaving at 11:00 PM. I explained to the representative that I was already promised a call back that night and didn't receive a call, so I had to have it taken care of because my service was shut off. His supervisor took my call and told me that there wasn't much they could do, because Ms. Smith had already started my case. He said they would send her an email, telling her she needs to contact me. He told me that he would have someone from his team call me back within 24-48 hours to see if she got in touch with me and if not, I would start from scratch with them.
In the meantime, I sent Ms. Smith an email the next day on 2/7/14, telling her my service had been shut off and I tried calling the night before to speak with someone else, but they couldn't do much for me because she had already been working with me. Again, I never did get a response.
Monday 2/10/14 had come along and once again my service was turned back off. I never did receive a call from the supervisor I spoke with on 2/6/14, who had promised me his team would call me back no later than 48 hours. So, again, I called to try and speak with someone else. I eventually got through to another supervisor, but after I explained to him what had been going on, the call was disconnected. I waited for about 30 minutes to see if he'd call back, but he didn't. Once again, I called to try and speak with someone else. I was directed towards the financial department and I explained to them that I was just talking with someone and was disconnected, so I was hoping to get back to them. I was told that there was no way to trace me back to the man I was speaking with. I then explained to that representative what was going on and she told me that if I paid the actual monthly access portion of my outstanding bill, my service would be restored and she would promise to put a note on my account to not turn it off again, because I was working to have the charges fixed. I paid the monthly access and she then transferred me to technical support to have someone in that department help me further. I then explained my story to the technical representative and she told me that her supervisor was not on-duty at the time, but she was preparing an email to send to her and she would definitely get back to me by the end of the week. That was two weeks ago from today and I've yet to receive a call from anyone.
Once again, I woke up today to find that my service had again been shut off. I called in and spoke with financial services and explained to them what has been going on and she said if I went ahead and paid my bill that had just come due for last month, she could turn it on. So, that's what I did, but I'm still left in the dark as for the future.
I am so beyond frustrated with this entire situation, that I have no clue what to do. I've told this story to at least ten people and I've gotten no where. To say that I feel like I'm being ignored, is an understatement. I can send y'all the entire transcript of emails with myself and Ms. Smith, proving that I've been trying to contact her for the past month and a half. This whole situation has gone further than the simple problem of the overage charges. It has now risen to a ridiculous level that I am being ignored by what seems like the entire company as a whole. How many times do I have to call to where I can finally work with one person who will help fix the problem? How many times can one customer be told that he will be contacted and he never receives a call? At this point, I am more than prepared to go over to Sprint and cancel my service with Verizon. The $460 that I am being raked trough the coals for will be nothing compared to not having my business for years to come. I am also prepared to contact and file complaints with the FCC or BBB for the fact that I have done absolutely everything in my power, including going in to a local store, to speak with someone about my issues. Like I said, I have the emails proving that I've been ignored and I can show them to y'all or to them. I don't know what to do anymore and I'm tired of calling and starting over with a new representative then being transferred around in loops where I have to re-tell the entire story again, so this is my last resort. If I don't get help by the end of the day, I'll be somewhere else tomorrow.

I am sorry about the mix up with the order, could you send me a PM of your contact details? Please include the email address you used to contact support. -
I have replied to you three times now without reply. I DID NOT authorise a payment of £9.99 for NowTV. What is the solution to getting my money refunded. I think you assume I will go away after being Ignored. No I will not go away. I find now that you have DISABLED MY APPLE ID. Is this a punishment you use to anyone who takes up a stand against charges being made unauthorised on their account?. Please tell me why you have disabled my account. When will my account be restored? If not when will you refund ALL my purchases made to APPLE/ITUNES? I can then move on to another brand and hopefully better customer service. After reading articles regarding APPLE ID DISABLED it appears common practice from your company to DISABLE anyone's account if they question unknown charges. Please reply with your intentions regarding the unauthorised payment and the DISABLING of my account.

N97 mini, email retrieval, and definition of "home...
Could somebody please explain what is meant by "home network" in the automatic email retrieval settings? I can't find any place to define this "home network" and I can't find info in the manual about it either. At home I'm connected to my WIFI network but at other places I'm either connected via GPRS or via other WIFI networks, so it's impossible for the Nokia to just know what my home network is.
What I did notice is that automatic email retrieval only works if I set "Email retrieval" to "Enabled". If I set it to "Only in home network" then it doesn't work.
What I really want to achieve is that email is retrieved automatically only when I'm in a WIFI network and not when I'm using GPRS.Hi Justasking,
Availability of firmware updates is dependent on carrier and country variants. If your phone is branded (e.g. Vodafone is your carrier and has there custom wallpapers / apps etc), then Nokia release the firmware to your carrier and it is up to them whether they will work on and release the update to you. If your phone is a country variant, this means that Nokia releases the firmware to your country's Nokia, and it is up to your country whether to add their own country requirements / custom apps etc. If your phone is branded, contact your carrier for an update schedule and availability, but if your phone is a country variant, contact your local Nokia Care point and ask them about availability.

to check for blank, it worked.
So my question now is when are you suposed to use isDefined
and when are you suppose to check for blank ?
If a field in a form is left blank, does that mean that it
does not exists, therefore using isDefined, or does that mean that
it exists but contains a blank value ?
I have the following code below. The first one works and the
second one does not, but I changed it to check for blank and now it
works, so I am a little confused now. What does isDefine do and
when should it be used ?
<cfif isDefined("form.output_type")>
<cfset session.output_type = "#form.output_type#">
<cfelse>
<cfset session.output_type = "screen">
</cfif>
<cfif form.email_address is not "">
<cfset session.email_address = "#form.email_address#">
<cfelse>
<cfset session.email_address =
"[email protected]">
</cfif>

I am receiving eMails sent from Verizon Android Phones where the reply-to header is being ignored by the client and sent to the sender.
Please make your smartphone smartI run a web site for an organization the send out eMail to members. Every member may have a different phone each eMail contains a reply-to header.
We are getting replies to the senders address rather than the reply-to address which should be handled by the eMail client. Some Verizon phones do not correctly use the reply-to header when the client replies to the message, other information, I do not have. Please verify that ALL Verizon phone eMail clients correctly handle the reply-to header.

How do I keep emails from being deleted on my iPhone 6? Emails get deleted from phone when I startup desktop computer and they are downloaded from sever. Is POP3 no longer supported on IOS 8.1?
Have you seen this?
Using a POP account with more than one device - Apple Support
A better solution is if your email provider uses IMAP. IMAP sync email folders between multiple devices. Meaning any device will receive the email, all sent email can be seen on the devices. If you delete email from one device the email is deleted from all the other devices. Check with your email provider to see if they offer IMAP services.
If they do not your choices are to 1) configure email on the PC to keep Mail on the mail server or 2) change email providers to something like Gmail or Outlook.com (as examples). FWIW I use Cox IMAP email and fully sync email between a Win 8.1 Update 1 laptop, a Win 7 desktop, an iPad 4, an iPhone 4 and an iPhone 5S. -
In insert: Space after period and before carriage return is being ignored
I am using Oracle 11.2.0.2.
let say I create table temp(a varchar2(20);
insert into temp values ('value.
valuue2');
I have put space after 'value. ' but it is being ignore when I run it from linux host in sqlplus.
The space seems to be preserved when I insert it from TOAD/Windows xp.
Any idea what might be causing it.hI,
I have the same result in SQLPLUS.
I would not rely on code with strings spread over multiple lines you should use the below code to add newlines:
insert into temp values ('Yes.Space. ' || chr(10) || 'x');This makes it very clear there is and a space and a newline.
This is much easier to maintain as well.

How can I stop emails from being sent without my hitting the "send" key.
Firefox doesn't do email, it's a web browser.
If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.
If your problem is with Mozilla Thunderbird, see this forum for support.

Random email not being received
Have been running into a strange issue with my iCloud email address the past week or so. Some email that is being sent to me is not arriving. Here is what I've been looking at.
Missing email is not being filtered to another folder.
Missing email is not in my junk mail folder
A single sender can deliver many emails, only some of which arrive. Have tried this with several other non-iCloud email addresses which I own and verified that not all email is being received.
Senders of the email which never arrive do not receive any automated delivery failure noticies.
the account still has a me.com address - but it has been migrated to iCloud.
Really ***** because I've only just completed a migration away from gmail. If I can't rely on iCloud to receive email I'm going to have to go through the hassle of getting another address and notifying everyone.
Anyone have any thoughts?I have exactly the same problem, and (for me at least) it is server-side. Sean, a senior adviser for iCloud support, has been looking into it since 8th May but no luck so far. Some emails come through but others don't: of the 19 emails sent from [email protected] to discuss the issue, for instance, only 4 have come through to my mac.com iCloud account. The remainder have only gone to my backup account. I think this might be the same problem this user is having:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/18288701#18288701
but I've not had a response to my response to him/her. Would you mind if I passed this thread on to the person looking at the problem for me please? I've relied on my account for years, and I'm REALLY reluctant to abandon it now. Perhaps if this is affecting other accounts it can be fixed by finding out what they have in common.
All best wishes

Emails not being generated using UDF
Hi,
We had setup a functionality to send email via UDF using the following blog.
Mail without email adapter? Part - I - Process Integration - SCN Wiki
This worked fine for some time. However, it does not generate emails anymore. There were no changes done on the objects. We checked the java mail service settings as suggested in some of the SCN posts and everything looks configured fine.
We are not able to determine what is preventing the emails from being generated. Any pointers would be really helpful.
