Android :: K-9 Mail - Cannot Send Emails

Feb 24, 2010

I have my personal email set up (not gmail) in K-9. I can receive email but cannot send it. The error I get is: '553 Sorry, your HELO host name has been denied. (#5.7.1)'. I know my settings are correct for the outgoing server.

My Galaxy S5 email is set up and I am getting emails OK, but when those emails have attachments, they won't download. I get error messages. At top there should be the number and the words 'View Attachments' - Click on View Attachments. Now you should have a list of attachments with a arrow next to it if not downloaded. Click file you want to download and you should get a animation where the arrow was that is indicating its being downloaded. The built-in Android mail client used to be able to download attachments in the past, from outlook.com! I still have the older emails sitting with properly downloaded, preview-able attachments in my inbox. Find more about 'I'm unable to open email attachments on my Samsung Android device.

Android :: K9 Mail - Combining Emails To Global Inbox?

Nov 23, 2009

Anyone who uses k9 Mail or have knowledge, I have a question. Is there a way to combine your email boxes to a global type inbox?

HTC Incredible :: Can't Delete Emails From My Mail App

Nov 11, 2010

I have checked the settings and I have the 'delete from server' box checked and I went onto the server and the emails are not there but when I delete the emails on the app, they will disappear until the next time it refreshes itself. This is getting very annoying and it is crowding my inbox heavily. Anyone else having this problem or know how to fix it?

Android : K-9 Email - AKA Will It Only Download NEW Emails

Jan 31, 2010

I think the Droid's email system SUCKS. Unless you use G mail for all your email, it continuously downloads deleted emails, over and over and over.
PLEASE don't suggest I forward my mail to G mail, that just sends two years worth of emails to my G mail account. Wouldn't you think Moto could get email done as well as BB? NEVER had this problem on my BB.
My question is, has anyone used K-9 mail and will it solve my problem above in my rant? AKA will it only download NEW emails?

HTC Hero : How To Control Google Mail For Checking Emails?

Nov 30, 2009

I've got a googlemail account set up to relay mail from my 'real' accounts onto my new Hero. What I can't figure out is if and how you can (a) control how often the Hero polls googlemail to check for new emails; and (b) how often googlemail polls the 'real' accounts to check for new emails.

Sprint HTC Hero :: Select And Delete Multiple Emails On Phone / Get Rid Of All Spam Mail?

Nov 1, 2009

I just upgraded from a five year old phone, so apologies in advance. The geeks at Best Buy set up my email for me which works fine (after multiple trips back to the store). Except that I can't figure out how to do a couple of things. 1. Is there a way to select and delete multiple emails on the phone and 2. How do I get rid of all my spam mail that comes in on the laptop (and gets filtered out there). Do I have to set up some kind of email push program so that the email comes in from my computer (already filtered) instead of from the server? You can see my learning curve is steep.........

HTC Hero :: Phone Doesnt Download IMAP Emails

Mar 18, 2010

I have a HTC Hero on o2 (an unlocked G2 Touch to be specific) which is set up to connect to my work email using the on-board mail app (the non-gmail one). As I have folders for my emails, I use IMAP both within Outlook 2003 at work and on the Hero. This all worked swimmingly for about 2 months and then recently I have noticed that I have been getting a lot fewer emails both on the Hero and within Outlook. I have also seen emails which I received during the day in Outlook disappearing after about an hour or so. I have spoken to my email provider and they tested it by sending me an email (genius) which strangely is still present in outlook, although it didn't appear on my hero. So in summary, it seems that I have two problems - my hero doesnt seem to download any emails, and my IMAP account is losing emails. I should probably add that my hero is configured to show all emails (irrespective of age or size). I have also checked my webmail and the emails are missing from there.

General :: Google Nexus 7 - Download Emails From Both Accounts?

May 12, 2014

I've used IOS for a while and wanted to try something different. That being the case I bought a google nexus 7 to play around with it. I have 2 google+ accounts set up on this phone because I play a game called Clash of Clans. I had to link both my IOS accounts over to 2 google play accounts. Now when I connect via Wi-Fi anywhere, it downloads the emails from both accounts. Is there a way for only allow for one of them to download? I'm not too familiar with this new operating system, so maybe I'm just not looking in the right spot.

Cannot download email attachments on android windows 10Aug 3, 2010

I am unable to see exchange email more than a day old. I go to Menu>More>Settings>Send&Receive>Download Past Mail and I only see 1 day listed.

Android :: Non-Market Download Problems - Download Unsuccessful - Cannot Download

Sep 22, 2009

I want to be able to download and install my app from my website, but when i do this at the moment i get the error:-
Download unsuccessful - Cannot Download. The content is not supported on the phone.
After looking into this it became apparent that the PHP Magic, that handles the downloads from the website, recognises the file as a .zip file rather then a .apk file and sends the it a .zip, that the phone does not recognise.
Does anyone know a way to get PHP Magic to recognise the file as an apk so that file extension does not get changed and the phone can recognise it?

I want to send an e-mail, and so I use the typical intent --

When I do this, the chooser comes up and gives all kinds of choices, for anything that can handle text/plain i assume, because there's stuff in there that doesn't support 'e-mail'. How can I make it so that it will only show applications that support email (gmail, mail, yahoo mail, etc...) and not stuff like 'Bluetooth', 'Facebook', etc...

Android :: Deleted Mail Come Back On G-mail

Oct 2, 2010

I'm having trouble with sync/delete working. I just started using G-Mail. I never needed it before (my home and work e-mail was enough). But now i do (looking for a new job and want the e-mails instantly on my phone). when i delete an e-mail on my phone (G-Mail account) it comes back. I use 'windows live' as the client on my desktop. it's like they are separate accounts. If i delete something on the desktop, it's still on my phone. If i delete something on the phone, it's still on the desktop my Exchange e-mail account works perfect (when i delete something in outlook, it's deleted on my phone at the same time).

Whenever i send a .apk file via email as an attachment and then open the .apk-file in my phone from my email-account, i get a parsing error.
However if i put the .apk on my website and provide a URL to it, it works like a charm.

A bug? Just me? Am i doing it wrong?
Thanks

That on new Android versions works very well, because, if the attachment is and apk then appear an install button. (on GMail native app)

But for older Android versions you will need and app like Email install this one : http://www.appbrain.com/app/email-installer/com.best.app.attachment

Android Text Attachment

I experienced the same issue with Android ICS (4.0.4). I would suggest, do not try to open the attachment (.apk) if the gmail account is configured in the device. Instead, Open your gmail account in the browser,open the email and now try to download the attachment. It worked for me :) Hope it helps.

I can install apps received from in my gmail account. My exchange and pop mail accounts will not allow it.

FYI - If you have Astro File Browser make sure the 'Enable Browser Download' option is disabled. It is a handy feature to allow download of any file type, but it interferes with gmail attachments.

The easiest way to transfer and install is by emailing it. When sending, set your text settings to Unicode text, if for some reason it gives you a parsing error when trying to install on your phone. Astro or another of file browser app is useful for finding the file after you download it from email, just tried it and it worked fine. The only errors came when I used any other text setting in email besides Unicode. Unicode text and everything installed perfectly.

I started getting the error Can't find app to open file on Google's Inbox app when installing an .apk through it, but then I tried it in Gmail, and it worked like a charm.

I recently ran into this problem when sending an apk from Mail on OSX but the same apk installed when sent from gmail.

To investigate this issue, I saved the output from 'Show original' in gmail for the emails sent from gmail and Mail. I ran:

And noticed the following difference in the attachment Content-Types:

from gmail:

from Mail:

I suspect this difference is the major culprit.

You can refer to my question, here. My guess is that any mail client that sends apk attachments with the correct content-type would pass installation.
