Samsung Email App Not Showing Emails After Reading

Thread Starter

I am using the stock e-mail app to view my hotmail letters. I have a lot of email in my inbox but only the final 2 days show up on my phone. There is no setting I tin notice to fix this. Does anyone know what else to do? An example is a hotel reservation that I take saved to my inbox. I desire to exist able to view that at the hotel when I go far merely since it is a month old, I can just get it via the calculator. For such a sophisticated telephone, this is crap.

Hi Curls and welcome to AF. I'k sure that your PC mail reader is set to remove mail from the server. In other words, once you download information technology to your PC it isn't setting on the postal service server any longer. Thus, it'due south not there for your phone to retrieve. I have both my phone and my PC set to remove mail from the server. I nigh always grab my post from my phone. If I should happen to get my mail service from my PC, I can't get it on my phone because it's no longer on the server.
I hope that clears upwards the problem you are experiencing. Have fun and thanks for joining and using these forums.
I believe the problem is that tue stock email app will only testify you emails that are ii-4 weeks old. Why they chose to implement that I don't know.
Information technology's the same with yahoo. Using the stock e-mail app my inbox is empty, simply using the yahoo e-mail app I have emails from last year.

You can always employ your browser to view your hotmail emails.
I am having same trouble. I do not remove old emails. I am using outlook.com and accept 500 emails in my inbox. The email app is merely showing 4 or 5 emails. I installed the out wait app and it seems to show all email and if I log directly in outlook.com I can come across all mail. The problem seems to be with the defaults email app. I prefer to use rhetoric default app if I can become it to work. Any ideas?

That's hardly the case. The default email app is by pattern set upwards for the typical consumer, those who don't often change the settings or options in their apps. It'due south a matter of catering to the public'south tastes. You on the other mitt, want an electronic mail client with more features but don't wish to alter to something other than the default post app. As an example, I use 'K-9 Mail' which has a setting to load a wide range of letters from my mail service to my phone -- between 25 to 10.000, or if I really want to bog down internal storage, all messages.
The electronic mail app utilise to piece of work just fine for my s4. I do not demand additional features. I upgraded phones for a ameliorate camera and the promotion deal that was offered
. I volition near likely never stress it's ability. Thanks for the reply.
I am checking the K9 app.

Yard-9 Mail service has got some pretty expert features. When you're setting it upward, be sure to take the fourth dimension to become through all the options in the Settings, the developers packed in quite a number of them.
I solved my problem. There is an choice "period to sync email" the default setting was 3 days and one time I ready to all I have all my email. Tom

Give thanks you Tom Drury. Something happened to my outlook today and all I was getting on my android were 2-3 messages. One time I followed your instructions, all was good again.
Not helping in my instance. LG G4, T-mobile. Will have to call tech support.
Tom Drury: What do you hateful "...I set to all"? I cannot detect such a control or option. Merely specific days. I'm now on manual then far it seems to work.
3rd party electronic mail apps work fine, and I use one for my business side. Even so, merely I'd sill like to use the stock for my many other accounts. Very annoying to see merely newer emails and I really picket equally it deleted my previous ones. They are still bachelor- spider web-based.
Gear up
For anyone notwithstanding having troubles, I found that swiping from the bottom of the screen upwards; while on the inbox screen; caused a loading and information technology then updated and showed all my emails inside the inbox.

I've found the same problems with the stock Samsung email on both S4 and Annotation 7. They never showed sent items for my QQ email, and getting new emails was ever rather slow. So I but employ my email provider's ain app instead.
I judge it's a issues, that they've never fixed.
