BlackBerry :: How To Purge Learned Email Addresses
Feb 15, 2011
Somewhere in my Blackberry's email program is a function that remembers the email address of anyone who sends me an email. Does anyone know how to purge this information?This feature has an unintended side effect of creating confusion when I compose an email message to someone in my contacts list, in that sometimes the remembered name of someone with the same name but a different email address pops up first, and if I am not careful, I can end up sending an email to the wrong person.The problem is worsened by the fact that there is some malware out there that has gotten hold of my niece's address books and sends me spam with the names of people I know using bogus email addresses on Yahoo, and the email program offers these names when I am composing a message, sometimes before the contact record for the person I want to email to. For example, I have received a message sent by y5e4dd645c17c@yahoo.com using my daughter's name (let's call her Jane Smith). Even though this email address is nowhere in my contacts, when I start to compose a message to Jane Smith, the autocompletion shows two Jane Smiths, and I have to carefully check to ensure the address being used is janesmith@someserver.com and not the bogus address above
I just got my first blackberry off of my friend, the didnt have a problem with it but as soon as I got it, it wont let me add my contacts to the address book...what can I do!?
How do I establish two separate email folders for different email addresses, work and school for instance and have the replies from each folder come from that specific address?
Whenever I write a text message, the predictive process always suggests learned words as I begin typing a word. In my case, it is suggesting every e-mail address that my gmail has ever received an e-mail from, that has been CC'd on an e-mail I have received, or that I have sent an e-mail to.
I am looking for a way to clear ALL learned words in one shot. I know I can do it one at a time when the learned word appears, but that will take forever. There should be a way to clear all of the learned words out of my Samsung S6 Edge plus. Further, not all of the learned words even clear when I clear them individually.
I resored a previously saved back up into my phone, now my email addresses will not work. even the link to setup the email address says no email addres available.
Had my BB for over 1.5 years and had the same emails the whole time. Today I stopped receiving emails and got a message from BB asking me to verify my addresses/PWs through the set up. Problem is each time I put in the details it says 'Username is invalid. A user name must be at least 4 characters.' it's a full email address so is more than 4 characters!
I have two email addresses on my blackberry; a gmail and my blackberry.net push email that's forwarded from my corporate mail server.Because my company email and calendars are not synced, I use gmail calendar sync to match all my calendars.Is there a way to automatically assign an appointment request on my blackberry.net account to my gmail? Or, can I turn off my blackberry.net associated calendar?
Earlier I synced Contacts, Keychain and Calender on my Mac, iPhone and MobileMe. I made sure that I selected the option to have the data on the Mac replaced. Calender and Keychain synced correctly, however, Contacts on MobileMe and iPhone were lost and replaced with the Contacts on my Mac - which were none. I have no idea why this happened and I have no back up because I to do an erase and install of Leopard today. It isn't such a disaster as I have most of the contacts saved in other ways. is there any way I can copy or transfer the email addresses in my Mail App to the Contacts App? It is easy to do on received emails, but I can't figure out how to get the 'saved' email address to come up with the option to Create A New or Add To An Existing Contact.
I have a problem with creating new email. In the past when ever I would write a new email I would get list of suggested email addresses in the "To" field. For example, if I would was to write the letter S I would get the email address of the people in my address book whose name starts with an S (sam, Sofia etc). For some reason this feature stopped working on my phone and I can't find how to make it work again. If I want to send an email I need to manually write the email address in the "To" field. The auto suggestion feature works perfectly on my wife's phone (an E72 with the same firmware - 22.007) but on my phone it won't suggest email addresses from my contacts.
Another problem is that my Gmail that is synced to the phone, through the Nokia Messenger server is locked on "hide emails older than 2 weeks". Now, I have hundreds of emails stored on my phone that dates to February 1st - the day I got the Phone! Is there a way to delete these emails automatically, without deleting them on the Gmail account itself? It makes my phone really when going through the emails.
I performed a hard reset on my Nokia E72 last night.The problem I am encountering now is when I try to add my email addresses back to the Nokia messaging Program it keeps asking me for the password.Even when I enter the correct password it just keeps asking for it over and over again.
Is there anything like custom ringtones for different email addresses? Some email accounts I've got set up on my phone (3GS, 3.1.2) get emails that there is no real urgency about; I'll look at the when I have time. Others I'd like to look at as soon as they arrive. A different sound for each account would help with this.
I recently set-up my Email account to my bold 9700 and I found that all my email addresses from messenger live had been stored into the phone's contact list.
I removed my E-mail from the phone but the contacts remain, any ideas on where I go from here?
Is there a limit to the number of email addresses I can have on my Blackberry Bold 9650? I have 10 and would like to add another but it will not allow me. Is 10 the maximum or am I doing something wrong.I am going to Set Up / Email Account / Set up or manage an existing email account / Set Up another email account / Creat New Address / User Name / Password and it gives me an error on the user name.I have tried numerous times and checked on the web that my user name and password are O.K. to no avail.
I want to verify my email addresses in my phone through the setting icon and I can't sign in by using my username and passward which I'm using them to login at my account through the website though the computer .... it seems the phone doesn't recogize the details ...
I have a BB 8520. Suddenly when I compose new email it is not able to fetch the addresses from the "Address book" If I enter an email address like there is no "Send" menu, there is only "Save Draft" menu I have sent the service book several times, rebooted the BB (battery pull), still it is not helping. When I send SMS, it can access the address book. If I get an email, I can reply to email. From address book, I can click on an email id and send email.
I got a new BB and transferred all my info from my 8320 which I'm giving to my son. Problem is I can't seem to delete the email accounts I transferred. I don't want to do a general wipe as some of the info on the phone already is useful for the new owner. I've hidden the icons for now but just want to delete them. When I go to email setup I'm not seeing the emails and all I get is an option to setup new accounts.
Trying to set up emails on new phone, every time I try to set up Rogers emails, message of "invalid email address or password. Verify your email address and password." Was able to setup hotmail but not rogers.
is there any way to get rid of rogue email addresses that appear in the dropdown selection when I create an email? There are random entries in there which aren't in my contacts.
whenever I try to send an MMS message to an email address, the email recipients never get it. This happens on BOTH phones. The phone says it sent just fine and everything is rosey but the email recipients never get it. Once in a great while one WILL go thru however. The rest are stuck in limbo somewhere. Is this a network problem or my phone settings? These are AT&T compatible phones running Android 5.0 on Straight Talk. I called Straight Talk and basically got no where. The tech said it's got to be the area I'm in. I recently went on a trip to San Diego which is 800 miles away and the phones did the same thing. Wouldn't sent MMS to email add's. I will add that phone to phone MMS works just fine. The trouble is sending MMS from phone to email address. It doesn't work. Attached is a screenshot of my APN settings per Straight Talk.
Has a solution been found which will allow clearing the cached email address entries on an iproduct? Deleting contacts, addresses and rebooting the device doesn't work. Restoring the device should not be the only solution as many business users don't know the first thing about iTunes or syncing thus most enterprise devices have never been sync'd.
I am finding it impossible to delete old email addresses as phone remembers old ones is there any way to do this without wiping the whole memory and re-booting?
remove unwanted email addresses, I have tried free download of ibackupbot, it finds contacts but not email addresses, and I do not wish to buy it when apple should have this built in to the iphone.
I updated to 052.005.It used to remember email addresses, the quick entry by typing in the name has stopped working, it just comes up with the person's name in grey and says feature not supported.
I have been using the blackberry without problem to receive email until last week when I got an email from Blackberry asking me to verify an email password on my Blackberry. I went into the blackberry setup icon as they suggested and clicked on email settings.However rather than a list of email addresses I got asked for a my user name and password. I have never used a user name on this phone which I received new a few months ago. I tried all my email addresses with no luck!
