I have about 20 sub folders off my main inbox for exchange server 2003. Only the items in my main inbox are counted as items unread on my device. If i have say 4 emails in another folder, it does not show that they are unread unless i click the inbox and switch to that folder. I want to know if i have unread messages in all my folders just from looking at the today screen. Is there a fix for this? Also push mail only seems to work for my main inbox too, not for the subfolders, i have to manually syncronize to get the rest of the messages to download. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Similar problem
I'm not even able to get the email from the other folders on my cell phone. Only email from my inbox comes in - are there any settings I can change for this?
yea. with the mail inbox open go to manage folders, then you can tell it which folders to sync
Is that not because of how outlook works?
I think it's always been like that: It just tells you how many mails you have in your inbox, subfolders are not included...

Hi guys,
Do any of you gurus know how I can make the unread mail count look in more folders than just the inbox?
My mail server files mails into folders so I can end up with 10 unread mails in a folder that don't show up.
Thanks guys!

Same problem here, will be good if email received from other folders than inbox could show up on the Home mail count.
Thanks
I cant even see any of the emails in folders other than inbox...
how can i change that?
EDIT: Found settings for other folders, but still don't know whether they show up in new messages...
I sync several folders in outlook, with ‘rules’ for filing set server side. If a new message arrives in one of these folders, I receive no notification, and the email does not get noticed without manually checking folders for email.
Does anyone know if there is key that can be modified to notify me of these emails?
This has been a problem with every rom I’ve tried so far, any help would be appreciated.
Thanks for reading this request...
Some how I have got an indication of 2 emails on the email indictor on my ORANGE UK Touch 3G.
I have checked for emails on the device but can't find anything I've missed. Any thoughts how to correct the indicator..
Thanks Phil
go to your email inbox. In the upper left corner, it should say inbox. If you click on it, you get a list of other folders, including sent, bulk, and trash. You might have one that says "Outlook Email" Check in that folder for unread emails. Probably have the subject "Email tips and tricks".
Hi,
Thanks for that, must have missed those Outlook ones tucked away....

No prob. Always comes up after you set up a new exchange or activesync or something. forget which does it.
little bit off topic
Is it possible to get rid of Outlook E-mail folders?
I sync only my contacts and calendar from Outlook, never email. It is not ticked. My default email program on my desktop PC is Windows Mail, not Outlook. But the Outlook folders are there cluttering the screen.

AFAIK the outlook Inbox is defaulted and cannot be deleted. When you uncheck, it just do not sync with your PC/notebook, but the folder is still there. Similar with other email accounts.
Thank you, azahidi

I've configured Hotmail on my HD2 and have enabled my Inbox and several sub-folders for sync. However, if I view a contact (from the all people screen) and goto the mail tab, I only see mails that are in the root of my Inbox; mails in sub-folders are not shown.
Is this a bug? Anyone else noticed this?
I noticed it and find it realy anoying. There must be a way to se subfolders.
It's a crazy constraint. Although I'll be able to see new mails come into my Inbox, I won't be able to see them once I 'archive' them to my sub-folders. I've got sub-folders containing hundreds of mails from my contacts and there's no way of viewing them from the contact screen on the HD2... the only way is to go into the mail app. I REALLY hope this is fixed in the next official ROM.
Can anyone comment on whether this behaviour is apparent using other mail providers other than Hotmail?
Same behaviour with POP3 account and Outlook.
I tried to search but could not find anything.
On my exchange email, I've got multiple folders and emails are sent to the different folders directly.
In HTC email program, I can look at other folders and see unread email there but I can't see unread emails (and get notifications) across all folders, except of course if I missed a configuration?
That's the way it works. If you've got rules to move mails to Exchange folders you won't get new mail notifications. Same thin happens if you use Outlook as the email client, you won't get any notification for mails that got to folders.
What bugs me is that if you hit menu->folders then the unread count isn't shown there - unless I'm missing something

I also am trying to figure this out. I basically want the ability to receive and be notified of all emails including all subfolders. Regarding Fed's comment, I agree that's how it's supposed to work, but in Outlook you can set a rule to display a notification. In my Outlook I set that as the top most rule for all incoming email so I get a notification no mater what rule runs. Even my BBerry allowed me to select folders that were also monitored and hence a notification and email were recieved. HTC however doesn't seem to have an option to do this. It actually sounds like you guys are getting a step further. If I select menu --> folders I see the folders, but not the email within the folders. Anyone know how to setup notifications and receive email for subfolders in exchange on the HTC?
I want to add that before I used Touchdown and touchdown can show emails from all selected folders.
Are follow-ups working for you (mine are auto-flagged in outlook)?
For info, I've asked the question to HTC. Good news, they replied.
Bad news...
There is no setting for notifications on new mails in servers specifiaclly, If you are using a Windows Mobile based phone you can set these folders to be synchronized and on new mails in these folders you should get a notification upon new mails. On our Android based devices there is sadly enough no way to do this.
