Mail icon in stock toolbar counting incorrectly

slugator · #1 (**permalink**) 09-26-2009, 07:20 PM

I've got the Sprint TP2.

My mail counter on the stock toolbar has been showing a count of 2, even though I have no unread messages in my account. I even removed the account and did a soft reset and the counter still shows 2.

The account is set to Yahoo..and I've verified that there are no unread messages in my account.

When a new message came in, it would increase to 3. Just no matter what I do I can't get it to go away.

Any suggestions?

Look under your outlook folder.

I don't think that's it. I don't have any other email accounts set up. I don't know how it could be counting anything else.

Mine works okay with Yahoo on my phone, but it seems there is an issue right now with Yahoo. On my account, from a computer, I always show 5 Unread messages, even though I have made sure they are all marked as read. So maybe it's a Yahoo issue

I had the same problem...it was a fantom unread message under Outlook E-mail....I got there when I set up Google sync for contacts...

Now that might make sense. I am synching my calendar and contacts through gmail.

How did you get rid of it?
