Motorola Q
Ready to put Q in microwave
Long time lurker, first time poster here. Thanks so very much to the ten or so people (you know who you are) on this board that act as a wonderful resource for all the rest of us.
Now the time has come for me to solicit your help. I am feeling quite frustrated with the Q's ability or lack thereof to handle my pop3 email, specifically gmail. For some reason, the Q deletes all old email from the phone each time it connects (every 15 min) to check for new messages. Essentially, I am saying that if I have no new emails, it will erase the 5 emails that downloaded 15 minutes previously.

I've noticed that the Q's email client will delete mail off the phone if it's been moved/deleted on the server. So if you're connecting to Gmail and moving your read mail into an archive folder (and that may happen automatically -- don't recall exactly how Gmail works, but I think there's an option to set for this), then when the Q connects to the server and sees the mail is no longer in the In box, it deletes it from its own In box as well.
I haven't figured out whether one can disable this behavior, as personally it doesn't bother me. Go through all the account options on the Q and see if there's a checkbox somewhere. If not, see if you can change the options in your Gmail account for how it handles read mail.
