Email on Mighty Rom 5
Ok so I am running the Mighty Rom 5 and I have noticed lately that when I delete an email off my device, it is also deleting it off my server!!! I need them to stay on my server. I have my device set-up as imap4 so the emails are supposed to stay on the server. Any ideas out there? This didn't happen with the stock rom, and if there is no fix, I may have to go back to stock... :(
TIA |
Re: Email on Mighty Rom 5
if you don't want it to delete off the server you need to switch to POP email. On the stock ROM you must've selected POP while setting up your email. IMAP is created so that all clients are able to access and edit one consolidated source for emails. Meaning if you move stuff around on your phone, it'll reflect on the server. POP is only a one way stream, where it basically creates a copy of the message and haves you download it, not affecting the actual server. Some POP servers only allow you to download the messages once, after which it disappears from their end.
I run IMAP for the sole reason that I'm able to delete stuff and move emails between folders on my phone and have it reflect on my gmail online. |

Really? I have been using Outlook, and my device for quite awhile, and they have always been Imap (on my device) and POP3 (on my PC with the advanced function-leave a copy on server- checked), this is how the tutorial showed to set it up if you wanted to leave a copy on the server. Are you sure I need to select POP 3 on my device??? Sorry about double guessing you man, I dont mean to, I just need to be sure... |

Well, again don't mean to second guess you, I have just always done it as Imap, but I am currently trying out your theory as we speak! =) |

Ok, so I tried email as POP3 and I still have the same problem, it is deleting it off the server. I really think this is a Mighty ROm5 issue. I know that sounds weird, but that is the only thing I can think of...? I will flash back to 4R3born, and see if I get the same problems on a WM 6.1

Re: Email on Mighty Rom 5
Make sure that in E-mail setup under Advanced Settings, you select something to the effect of "Keep on server" under the "When deleting messages" drop down. It's the advanced settings on the Automatic Send/Receive schedule tab.
I've used imap on gmail with MR 6.1 and always had my messages deleted off servers. In fact I probably would've been peeved if the messages didn't reflect what I did on my phone as that's the main reason I use imap. I don't normally use POP3, but I'm pretty sure I've seen people use that option while using the POP3 protocol. |
