Hi

I appeared to have just bugged out the default mail app on my recently flashed to OS2008 N800.

I configured the mail app to handle to of my gmail accounts and was having issues retrieving the message text of my emails. I had configured the app to pull headers only during its initial configuration.

I was reconfiguring the message retrieval aspect of one of my accounts and had completed the task and clicked finish on the account being managed and the dialogue just sat there for ages . . .

I somehow managed to close the mail app and since then have been unable to open it . . . rebooting has not resolved the issue either ?

Anyone know the process name of the default mail app or any pointers as to what the problem might be here ?

Thanks

Dave

killing enprocess has always worked for me, but then so's a reboot.

Hmmm

Seems a reboot with the power disconnected has resolved the issue ?

I am trying to modify the settings again to change retrieve 'headers only' to 'messages' and it appears to have locked on the dialogue when selecting finish though . . .

May have to recreate these accounts me'thinks.

I'll dabble for a bit.

Thanks for your input fnordianslip
