My email retains the email addresses of ALL of the emails that I've sent or received. This includes those not in my contact list. When I start a new email they appear whenever I type the first letter in the "To" or "cc" fields. How can I delete these? Does anyone know the name of the file where they are stored? Thanks.
Fixed it.
I still haven't found where it's pulling the email address history from, but it can be turned of with the following registry edit.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Inbox\RecipientAutocomplete]
"MaxSuggestions"=dword:0
Mine was set to 4. After changing it to 0, presto-chango! No more email address autocomplete frustration.

Hello,
I seem to be having a problem with the built in email client on my XDA Exec. Every so often the built in Outlook Mail Client seems to "loose" my POP 3 account. However when I try to add it back in it tells me that:
"That name is already assigned to another account. Enter a unique name and try again"
Now I could keep adding it back in with a different name each time but that is a pants solution. Any thoughts as to how I can permanently fix this issue?
I have trawled through the registry but cannot find within it the name I used when I created the POP3 account.
[I have also noticed that it seems to loose the registration information for SunnySoft Back up as well!]
Many thanks
Change name POP3 in account configuration step 1 or 2 to another like mail1, mail 2. You have to use different names for settings

if only it was that simple. The original entry is no longer visible! So I cannot change it. And I cannot see it in the registry to delete it either. Any idea where does Pocket Outlook store its config information?
No i don't know

Did you ever see "No GSM" when soft reset? Then get your machine replaced. Check my postings.
Hello fellow users
Is there something like email to "Distribution List" or "Category" that I've assigned a whole bunch of Contacts to??
I have been using my T-Mobile MDA VARIO for several months now but still can't workout if there is a way to simply email using a POP3 email account to more than one recipient.
:?:Are POP3 Email Distribution Lists possible?
thanks for your wise words,

Interesting...I didn't realize the feature was missing until you pointed it out.
Here's a temporary workaround (don't have much time to sit and search for a freeware addon):
1. Create a new contact named as the group name you'd like to use (say "Development Team")
2. Enter all the e-mail addresses for your distribution list within the "e-mail" tag of this new contact, placing a semicolon ( ; ) between all addresses.
3. When you go to create a new email, enter the group name you just created and the email field should automatically fill with all the addressees (I tried with two, there may be a limitation)
glhs509,
Thanks for the TIP.
I've found there is a limit at 247 characters which works out at 6 - 7 email address' for me so not much scope for large distributions.
For more than 247 characters I've ...
1) on my PC created a temporary email to the distribution list
2) Expanded the name to show all email address
3) Copied into notes section of a new contact.
4) on my PPC I can sink the new contact and it just takes a copy and paste of the contact notes into a new email 'To' box.
Not great but a lot better than adding one at a time. So thanks
I would really like to sync my contacts with the distributions in outlook on my PC so if anyone knows how to, please fill us in
On the screen that has the list of messaging accounts you can select from, under the Outlook email selection there is this random letter "d". Under text messaging there's nothing and under my windows live account it has my hotmail e-mail address. I'd like to either remove or edit that "d" to my outlook email address or just have nothing there. I don't even know how it got there in the first place. I looked through the registry and couldn't find anything tied to it. I really don't want to hard reset it either. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!
I have searched far and wide for a solution to the reply all bug, and I did find a solution on the MSDN blog.
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/outlook_mobile/archive/2006/03/22/558605.aspx
However, the "My e-mail addresses" field is grayed out for me; and the only other post I could find online was something about it being unchangeable after account creation. I experimentally found a solution, and now I'm posting it here for archival purposes.
I had this issue on WM6.5.x with the gmail exchange server in outlook mobile 2010.
To reiterate; the reply all bug will add your own email to the list of recipients when you "reply all" to an email. The fix is to tell outlook what your email is, so it knows it shouldn't send it to you (apparently the exchange setup makes this unclear; see msdn blog link above). In order to fill out the field, I had to;
1. Open activesync, press "Menu" > "Options..."
2. Select "Microsoft Exchange" (or whichever account you're having this issue with) and delete it.
3. Now you'll have to set up your exchange server config again; but when you get to the screen where you select which services you'll be using (email, calendar, contacts, text messages, tasks), select email and press "Settings..."
4. Press "Advanced..." and voila! the "My e-mail addresses" field isn't grayed out anymore. Type your email address into it, press OK.
5. Finish the setup and resync.
Now, the "reply all" button will work as expected. If someone sends an email to you and you only, reply all will open a compose dialog to just that person (and not add you to the To: list as well!). I'm not sure what other peoples' preferences are, but ever since I got gmail, it's very rare when I don't want to reply all, so this fix was invaluable to me.
I just need to figure out how to add this to xda_uc; the activesync.xml doesn't seem to have an option for this.
This is a bug? How else do you keep a record of emails you send from your phone?
Yeah it's a bug. Sent messages go in the sent folder, you don't need or want a copy in your inbox...
Not to mention you'll get the mail received alert next time it syncs with exchange. And no, it's not someone replying to your email... it's the email you just sent. Very annoying.
I use Yahoo email. When I enter an email address the Samsung (Galaxy Prime) appears to remember it to make it easier for entry next time; makes sense.
So, I've entered a few wrong email addresses and they have been remembered.
Now when I do an email entry I may get 6 choices when only 2 are valid.
So I was thinking, get rid of the invalid 4.
I can't.
The email application does not seem to have them.
The contact list does not have them.
Is there some Samsung memory I can find them in and delete them as I don't want to delete all the valid email addresses that are remembered by the Samsung.
