[SOLVED] How to hide OUTLOOK from eMail tab in TF3D?

[Lycox]

Here's a tip for all who wants to hide the OUTLOOK account from the email tab in TF3D who have 4 email accounts like me :D
(thanks to Pietje_1985 for the hint)


Make a backup of all of your emails (eg use PIMBackup (http://www.dotfred.net/default.htm)) to get them back if it's necessary
Connect your device to PC via ActiveSync
Open ActiveSync on your PC
Tools -> Options -> uncheck Email
confirm the dialogue box


Worked for me :)

Good question. And additionally the "System" folder for Blackberry Connect users...

[Pietje_1985]

I don't use outlook email account, so does anyone know, how to hide it from the email tab? It's useless for me.

Searching the forum didn't brought me an answer... :(

At least..one thing I know is try to uncheck the email option @ ActiveSync on your pc....I think it is telling you then it will remove all email stored on your device via Outlook....not HOTMAIL!

I'm figuring out if there's another solution....I thought there was....I'll let you know, as soon as I found it;)

Thanks, but does that delete my other accounts too, or just Outlook eMail?

No I think it should only remove your OUTLOOK settings and no hotmail...:D

Try this as well....PPC PIM backup:
http://www.dotfred.net/

you can also make a backup first with this app and afterwards try to delete the account...if failed, you can always revert back....;)

Good luck:D

Well okay, but there's no need for me to delete Outlook email complety, I just want to remove it from the email tab of TF3D.
Maybe, there's an entry in one of the manila files, that can be hidden or deleted... :confused:

Aha...ok....I can't help you with the possible manila file...because I don't know if it excist....maybe you can ask NISSE about that...and can't you remove the mail settings at your message settings where you can also view your sms/mms etc??

No, not possible with Outlook. Already tried that...

Use TF3D config (search for it in the forums) and in the first option it will say tabs on the bottom and you will be able to hide or add, even rearrange your tabs for diamond.

LOL, I don't wanna hide the the whole eMail tab, I just want to hide OUTLOOK inside the tab. Please read carefully before posting ;)

[kaos4u2nv]

Just download tf3d config (search for it in the forums). Once you open up the first page will be tabs, there you check or uncheck whatever you want to see for the tf3d.

And again:
Please read carefully!
I don't want to hide the eMail tab! Only OUTLOOK inside the tab.

Got lucky and didn't even bother configuring email when I first connected to ActiveSync and so I never saw that email account in the TF3D tab.

However, I would like to remove the Sprint Picture Mail tab and account from the Mail TF3D tab as I don't use it and it pushes one of my other email accounts off the screen so I can't see the unread count. Any ideas?

Ye, I second that, anyone?

Well I can't get rid of outlook mail on my Diamond. I'll keep trying

[Aftiii]

There is another way without connecting the phone to the pc, just go to activesync then press menu then options then untick E-mail, same way of doing it just saves looking for the all important cable!
