Mail Folder: Delete?

[Guest xelar]

Before using my SPV itself to send/receive email, I've synchronized mail with Outlook. Now all my Outlook mail folders are on my SPV as well. Is there a way to delete those folders?

Same problem here as well...would love an easy answer please :wink:

Usually either you have sync with Outlook or send/receive from SPV.

If you set it up sync and then change your mind and use "Programs->Inbox->Menu->Options->Email Set-up" it should delete all your specific sync folders.

At least that's what it does on mine...

Nope.....I think we may not have been clear about what we were trying to do - sorry :oops:

The phone *IS* now set-up to recieve e-mails, it's just that when I originally set-up the phone I chose to sync; and consequently when I first connected my SPV active sync copies across *ALL* of your Outlook Folders.

Obviously this isn't a problem if you have a simple default folder setting on the desk top, but I use 19 Inbox sub-folders....all of which are now redundant if you choose not to sync your email :roll:

So how can I delete those sub-folders off my phone....please :!:

Yup - guess I wasn't clear either ;-)

I was originally set to sync via Outlook - my 25 sub folders from my inbox got copied across.

Then I decided to send/receive instead (why can't you do both? - grrr!). So I went into e-mail setup and was warned that I was currently set to sync with Outlook and continuing would remove my current e-mail setup, did I want to continue? I click yes and set up a pop3 e-mail account.

Next time I go into my inbox I only have 5 folders (Deleted Items, Drafts, Inbox, Outbox, Sent Items). My 25 subfolders are gone.

It sounds like your phone doesn't do this. Strange :?

Try setting up sync again and then setting up e-mail.

Thanks Barry :wink:

Re-syncing and then changing to send/receive gave me the option you mentioned and then took away all of my additional inboxes - Nice and tidy again now ;)

Yep. Worked. Thanks much!
