Droid Error to view email-The application email(process.com.android.email) has stopped unexpectedly

[linda44]

Hello:

I was able to set up my personal and corporate email.  The email is showing up on my droid.  However, when I go to view a message I get the following error:  The application email(process.com.android.email) has stopped unexpectedly.  Does anyone know why?

Thanks

I got the same thing this morning and have no idea, anyone have any ideas?

Bottom line you need to clear and reinstall

I recently ran into the same message.  I tried removing the account and setting it up again.  I even set it up on my husbands droid and it worked, no problems.  After speaking with VZW person they suggested that I do an online search.  On andriodandmeforums.com someone had a similar problem and had a solution besides factory reset.

Home> Settings> Applications> Manage Applications

Click the menu button> Select "filter"

Select "Running"

Scroll down to "email" application, select "clear data"

Then just set up the account again.

So far a success for me and much easier than "factory reset"

Just curious, did you happen to try sending a picture via email with the "share" button?

I had a similar problem yesterday when I attempted to send a picture via gmail.  I was attached to my WiFi, and left the range of the WiFi, apparently while the email was still sending.  It got "stuck" in the outbox, and when I would attempt to click on the outbox, I was getting an error like you.

The solution was to clear the data via the menu/apps method already mentioned.

I have seen other with the same problem regarding lockups and crashes after trying to send a picture via email.

Thank you - this worked for me also!

You are the "BOMB"!!!  I have not been able to open my email for over a week and could not get help from Verizon.  I didn't want to do the "factory reset" because "it could cause other problems" (Verizon support said that).  THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH!!

Thanks a ton. Exactly what I needed to know.
