Problems removing email account in phone N80

Hello,
I seem to have 2 of email accounts in one. On my Vodafone mail I seem to have got my Gmail emails which are quite big. Would anyone know how I can remove Gmail. I thought I had removed Gmail but I am still getting emails.
James

jamesfirst,
Let me start by saying that you may have inadvertantly done something when setting the email accounts up, not sure what exactly, and maybe not even your fault mate.
As for how to resolve, the easiest solution seems to me to be to remove ALL email accounts from the phone & then put back on the one you want.
I had to do this after a firmware upgrade so I know it's easy enough to do.

Problems with email accounts on N80

Hello,
I have a Nokia N80 phone with Vodafone but been having problems getting email accounts to work.
I tried to add Googlemail, work account and Yahoo accounts with pop as incoming and smtp as outgoing but couldn't connect to mailbox. I got Internet server error.
Any ideas how to solve it?
James

In the email settings, in connection settings you'll have the option to set the Access point used for incoming and outgoing emails.
... messaging, options, settings, email, mailboxes, select the mailbox, connection settings then incoming and outgoing e-mail - here you can set the access point to be used. I would suggest setting it to Always ask - that way you can select to use your wireless lan if you're in range or select Three Internet if you're not in range of your Wlan.

E72: Removing Email account from a restore and lar...

I removed all my push mail accounts and went manual because my battery life is longer that way. I also purged my account from email.nokia.com. Recently, my IMAP mail from google stop working. I thought it was because of some corrupted data in the phone, so I tried removing and recreating the mailbox numerous times, reboot and all but nothing works. It simply doesn't get mails past a certain date/time.
I did a hard reset, shift+space+backspace+poweron and re-setup everything. I still encountered the same problem on my E72. So I did a restore using the Ovi application. Nightmare begins.
I restored the 'push mail' accounts which no longer exist because I have previously removed them from email.nokia.com. Now when I try to remove the mailbox, it says 'you need to connect to xx to remove it.' Obviously I cannot connect because that account no longer exists. And the 2 mailboxes spam me with prompts for passwords and neither can log on. I had to hard-reset again and setup everything from scratch thanks to this stupid problem.
I eventually traced the problem to 2 emails which are exceptionally long. People just reply and reply and reply until the mail became about 20 pages long. Let's say I have 30 mails in my gmail 1-30. Mail 10 and 15 are the long ones. If I sync, it will only retrieve 1-9, then get stuck there. If I go to gmail to delete 10, it will sync until 14 then get stuck there. When it is 'stuck', it just connects and disconnects right away, without attempting to retrieve my mail 16-30.
I tried again using pushmail. Push mail works with that large mail 15 probabaly because it is retrieved server-side.
Please advise. How to solve these issues? It is quite frustrating... I don't want to use google's gmail application because you can't save attachments with that. And PDFs all become text files in gmail app's viewer.

Open Mail on the old laptop and in the Accounts section of its preferences click on your email account and then on the "-" button at the bottom. Then go into the User/Library folder and delete the Mail folder to remove all the old emails.

TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

How can I remove email account from an iphone but leave it on another?

Hi
Can anyone advise me if I delete an email account from one iPhone will it still be available on another iPhone. I've upgraded my phone but am giving my old iPhone to my husband but want to remove as many emails to save on memory for him, but when I delete from the old iPhone, the same emails are deleted from my new iPhone.
I have seen that the account can be deleted, but don't want to delete it without knowing whether it will leave the account still on my new iPhone.
Has anyone had experience of this, and can you advise me what I need to do?
Many thanks
A

Hi
Thanks for your reply. I just didn't want to select "delete" without checking it out first...
I'll give it a go later.

Problems creating email accounts

When I have created an email account, and click save - the following message occurs:
Error An error has occurred. Please try again. The email account doesn't seem to have been created.
When I refreshes the page, the email account I just created, appears anyway....
But the activation email were never sent.
So - when I try to resend the invitation email, following message occurs:
Error Problem sending invitation email.
When I inspect the BC-page (admin console, site settings, email accounts) where these error messages occurs, I get this message:
Status: 500 Internal Server Error on https://api-adub.worldsecuresystems.com/api/v2/admin/sites/882595/emailusers/870339/sendIn vitation
All this I've told support...
But they always tell me that this is caused by an issue on my end.
Some of the same things are happening when I'm adding an admin user!
I've been struggeling with this for 2 years, and I've been in contact with support several times.
But it worked in the older interface - V2. So as long as there were a link to the older interface, I switched over to V2 to do this job. But now the link has been removed - and I do not know what to do! This is a problem for all my sites. I've tried different browsers and different computers on other locations. But the same thing is always happening.
Support have tried to "replicate" this problem, but they get it to work from wherever they are.
Since it worked in V2, and doesn't work now either from my computer, or others I've tried, I can't see how it can be anything on my end.
This is a very important function, and I hesitate to take on new clients as long as this doesn't work.
Are there anybody else who have this problem?
Do anybody know what to do?

I am having a similar issue - the email appears to have been created but the activation email was never sent... now we can not remove the busted one or create a log in in a client! - how to repair?

Problems with email account on BlackBerry Q10

At the start of this week I had 2 email accounts on my BlackBerry Q10.
Calls/SMSes and emails were all being received/sent/allowed without any issue (through wifi and/or usual network connection). The ONLY exception to this was that I was NOT able to send emails from 1 of my 2 email accounts since Monday evening.
When I tried to send a message through this email account on my Blackberry the message showed up with the same icon/symbol to its left as though it was a received message...
I have had this issue before occasionally. Previously i have removed battery and re-started and there has been no problem. This week such a solution didn't work.
I am wondering if it could be an issue due to work performed on the server where our mail is hosted at the start of the week which has 'upset' my Blackberry?
In the end I deleted this faulty 2nd email account this morning and since then am unable to reinstall it...
Messages I get from regular email account adding is: 'make sure your email address and passwod are entered correctly. If you're trying to add a work account, make sure your enterprise activation code has not expired. Contact your administrator for support;
When I try the advanced option I receve the error message: 'the server mail for your account is not responding. please check your settings and try again'
I have added the exact same email account to my father's iPhone this afternoon and the account has been added and is working fine.
Any ideas why it shoudl work without a problem on the iPhone - and more importantly how to solve the problem and re-add the email account to my BlackBerry? (And then - how to be able to send the messages - if I still have an issue then with sending emails...)
Thanks!

Thanks again.
I think it is unlikely that the one email account is interefering with the other one. They have 'happily co-existed' for about a year but maybe I could try removing the one that is currently working, I guess, just to double-check...
How would I know if they are 'BES connected'? I don't remember setting them up initially - it was so long ago... ...and I didn't see any 'prompt' today when trying to add the account back asking if the account should be 'BES' or not?
I did contact our hosting guys but they maintain it is not sth they have done. In any case it still works on my father's iPhone so it seems it is rather a BlackBerry problem in general rather than an issue with my server?
Yes, my BlackBerry ID is related with the email account that I can't add... Could that be an issue? I do have a second email address that I tried to add on this email account (which is different to my BlackBerry ID) and I was unable to add that either - so it would also seem this is not the issue here?
Thanks for the suggestions...

Temporarily disabling specific email accounts for phone shared by multiple users

Hi all and thank-you in advance for any potential help!
My company has a Blackberry "Style Flip" 9670 for our sales-people traveling in Northern Canada in the Yukon area. This phone goes with whoever is going on that particular trip, however it has 5 different email accounts associated with it for the 3 users that share it.
I don't know if this is possible with a Blackberry or not, but we would love if there was an easy way to temporarily disable the email accounts that do not belong to the person carrying the phone at that point in time.
The way it is now, we have User A (2 email accounts), User B (2 email accounts), and User C (1 email account) sharing this phone. If 'User C' is presently up north and has the phone and sends an email to 'User A' and 'User B', the email is still received on the shared BB for both 'User A' & 'User B' and wastes a lot of precious bandwidth. The main dilema is the two users with multiple accounts on that phone receive a ton of emails daily. This means 'User C' may have 1 crucial email waiting to be received, but has to wait for all of 'User A' & 'User B's' emails to be received before getting the important email.
Is there a way without deleting the accounts each time to turn certain email accounts on and off? Any help is much appreciated!
Colin

Files related to removed email accounts are not deleted.

Thunderbird (currently 24.6.0, Windows) current Account Settings window shows Local folders and RSS folders for rss feeds. I used to have 2 email accounts, but a long time ago I stopped using Thunderbird for them. At that time I removed them using the "Remove account" button. They were (and are) no longer displayed.
The other day, I went to transfer Thunderbird settings using MozBackup to another system. On that system I could see the two email accounts (including mail messages).
Then, I checked in the Thunderbird Profile folder in Application Data. The accounts were still there.
So my question is - How can I completely delete the old email accounts. I read elsewhere that the primary email account cannot be deleted. But can the account sub-folders in the Profile folder be deleted without causing other problems?

Folder
mail \server name
IMAPMail\server name
Deleting the server name folders removes any residual mail for an account.
Note deleting such a folder for an active account is something of a disaster.
see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Recovering_deleted_mail_accounts not what you ask, but explains folder naming a little

Cannot remove email account

I am trying to remove one of my Palm Pre e-mail accounts and it will not remove completely. I have now tried 5 times and have reset the device twice. It looks as if the account was partially removed, but it still appears in the list of accounts on my main screen and in the Preferences & Accounts page. The only box that now appears under the account is the Outbox. There's nothing in it. My last attempt to remove the account was about 30 minutes ago. It still says "Removing Account..." and continues to spin. I'm fairly sure it will never finish.
The account I'm removing is a POP mail account. The reason I'm removing it is because my Trash folder had become so bloated. It contained about 4200 items at time of removal. I'm hoping someone at Palm will eventually wake up and provide an Empty Trash command (or better yet, an auto empty feature). I suspect this is the only e-mail software known to mankind in which you cannot empty the trash. It blows my mind.
Anyway, my main problem right now is this account that will not go away. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there a solution that does not involve a hard reset?
Thanks in advance...
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

UPDATE:
After a mere 6 hours, I finally got a notification that the e-mail account was removed! And indeed it is now completely gone.
Silly me for being impatient! So let this be a lesson for anyone else deleting a "large" e-mail account. It could take a REALLY LONG time to remove an account. I suspect my 4200 messages is small as compared with some power users out there.
Note to Palm:
For starters, it would be nice if there was a warning that account removal may take a long time. Also, it seems to be done in the background, so there's no reason for the user to hang around waiting. You can even quit the email app (I guess). Beyond this, I have to say that it is absurd that removing any e-mail account should take over 6 hours. Clearly something is fundamentally wrong with the way the data is stored and/or deleted by the e-mail app. As a user, I think it's reasonable to expect such an operation to take no longer than 1 minute.

Remove email account

Will you share your experience how to remove the account, please? I contacted Motorola support, even they couldn't help. So I have the account stuck there.

Hi serzhoo,
No problem! We can definitely help with how to remove an email account from the S3. If you go to Apps > Settings > from the Account section, select Email > POP/IMAP account > Remove account > Remove account. Hope that helps!

Removing email account, but keeping contacts and calendar

I have a work email account setup on my iPad. I have changed jobs and would like to delete the old work account. Is it possible to remove the old email account, but preserve the contacts and calendar information?
Thanks

Same happening here. Contacts and calendars sync between 2 Macs OK using iCloud. iCloud syncing with iOS devices worked well until Monday afternoon 12/19.
Since then (3 days) mail, contacts and calendars in my iCloud account do not sync to iPhone 4 and iPad. Photo Stream OK.
All software is up to date. Wiped iPhone and started fresh. Still syncing is broken.
OmniFocus, Evernote, Gmail, Dropbox sync OK. Safari works too.
Attempts to delete iCloud from iPhone stall at spinning pinwheel.
Likewise attempts to disable calendar and contacts services stall.
Seems this problem relates to iCloud security on iOS gadgets.
Still out if sync.

PROBLEM ADDING EMAIL ACCOUNTS

Hi,
Hope someone can help me.
I have just received my Iphone 3Gs. I have been trying for hours to sync my google mail accounts
to the phone via itunes and also manually but so far only one will sync and download emails?
The phone keeps saying my password is wrong when it isn't.
I have tried re-setting and the same problem still exists. I have tried via Itunes and then manually adding my password to the iphone and still the problem exists.
Can anyone help please as this is very annoying.
Thanks!!

Deselect sync email account settings under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by selecting Apply.
Follow this by deleting and manually recreating the accounts on your iPhone.
If this is successful, do not reselect sync email account settings under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes which is a one way transfer process only - from your computer to your iPhone which doesn't always work properly. If this does work and you reselect this after doing so followed by a sync, you will re-transfer the problem to your iPhone.

E72 - Removing email account.

Hi!
I would like to remove my email account from my e72 but i don't know how.
Solved!

I also have a problem removing Hotmail from the Nokia E72.
I had used the Nokia Messaging to create mailboxes for Ovi Mail, Yahoo mail and GMail on the E72 (I recall the Yahoo mail was creating using the built-in Nokia Messaging, while the Ovi Mail required web access / 3G/GPRS to created, Gmail also created with built-in app).
However, I didn't create a Hotmail mailbox on the cellphone. It appears to be automatically created when I installed Windows Live Messenger for Symbian (from here: http://europe.nokia.com/support/download-software/windows-live ).
I was testing the Windows Live Messenger for S60 (I didn't register for a Hotmail email but used another email address).
After removing the Windows Live Messenger, the Hotmail mailbox is still there, now replaced with a "?" icon. The Hotmail mailbox isn't listed in the Email Settings (only Ovi Mail / Yahoo mail / Gmail mailboxes are listed), so I can't find a way to remove the mailbox.
The Hotmail mailbox seems to be different from the Ovi / Yahoo / Gmail mailboxes since it appears on the top line. Also, there's a single Hotmail message "Windows Live Hotmail Services - Welcome to Windows Live" -- I can view the "list" view (message subject headers) only but can't "enter" the message to view the message content.
How do I remove this Hotmail mailbox?
I'm experiencing exactly the same problem but with a gmail account through SEVEN systems on an E71. After uninstalling and reinstalling SEVEN (in an effort to remove inactive mailboxes) I now have 3 blank duplicate mailboxes with question marks next to them which I have no idea how to remove. If i reinstall SEVEN then I am able to open the mailboxes, though they are empty and not active (they are all for the same account). When I go to Messaging>Settings>Email and highlight the mailbox I am only given the option to edit rather than delete.
I am really frustrated, any assistance would be gratefully received

8520 - removing email addresses/clearing phone

Sorry, long and very boring story!
I had a Blackberry 8520 which my horse kindly deposited in his waterbucket, and I then discovered it wasnt insured.   The main "mouse" type button stopped working, so I had to buy another.
I used the application on my desktop to transfer over my email addresses and what have you, all seemed very simple (which it has to be for me!) but I havent received any emails to my new device since, despite the fact the icons are there for the addresses.
I dont think I cleared the old phone so wonder if the emails are going there (I cant see as I cant use the button!)
I found some instructions on the Blackberry website about removing the email from the device. I cant do it ON the device due to the button issue, the other solution suggested doing it on the Blackberry Internet Service Web Site - and I dont mean to sound thick but someone else set the initial blackberry up for me who I cant now get hold of - but I have no idea where it is telling me to look as I cannot find "Settings" or "Email Accounts" on that website?
I am sure this is much more simple than my little brain is making it! Can someone help please?
Thanks

Smokey, look here:
To delete the BIS email account: http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB04620
To login to your service provider: See the section that reads
"Set up your BlackBerry Internet Service account from your
computer"
http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB03087
NOW, even thought your trackpad may not work to click, can it scroll around the homescreen icons?
If so, you can use the ENTER key (lower right) to open most icons, try it.
