Hi, I am new to these forums and cannot wait to become a part of the community here. I have lurked for several months and finally decided to join up today.
Now onto my problem: I just updated to Android 2.1 on my Sprint HTC Hero the other day. Mostly all the minor issues I have encountered I have been able to find a solution fairly easily through researching, however, I have one problem that I cannot figure out.
I use the POP3 email client and in Android 1.5 it would check for email every 15 minutes and it would flash the LED and make a noise to notify me if I received any email, then it would not notify me again until I got another email. I have noticed, on Android 2.1, if I do not check my email (like if I am asleep or something) for a while, AFTER I have received a new email, I will continue to be notified about it with the LED flash and the notification sound every few hours. I will then go and check my email client and see that I have not really received any new email at all. It is basically just repeating the notification.
This is rather annoying for me. I want to be notified about the email arriving once and only once unless I happen to receive MORE email. I have checked the settings for my email and the notifications and I cannot seem to find anything to remedy this. I honestly don't know if this is just the POP3 email client causing this issue (I think it is) or if it is just a notification glitch in general. Does anyone have any ideas about fixing this or perhaps a possible solution? Thanks, in advance.
