Hi Diodeman, it is a concern at to why your texts are coming in as an email and for your email to disappear. Lets look at both issues to see what’s going on. Is this issue with the incoming texts being sent from other mobile device users? Are you using a email application to access email on your device? Share more details so we can look into these concerns.

are you sure it's not imap email, if deleted one place deletes on every device.

sending to an email address & texting to the phone number are different tasks.

i don't see how a text message comes in as an email unless it's coming from an i-phone & the individual isn't sure whether sending a message or email.

I had two mobile users send me texts, right after I received them, they also appeared on my default email account which is my jobs exchange server.

I went through all the settings and no where do I see this as an option to activate.

The secondary email account using the droid application is a POP3 account. So once it downloads anywhere, what you do to it will not be reflected on other platforms you may be using. What would happen is after a hour or less, they would just vanish and not be found in the trash bin. I went to the ISP's webmail application on my desktop and found them missing. This could have been an issue with their server that they are not admitting to me.

All,

Found the solution to the why am I receiving incoming text's also as emails on my exchange email account. I found the answer in antoher thread. I checked. On for "Sync Messages" that was the culprit.

In regards to the POP 3 mail account with vanishing emails, that is probably the ISP's issue and it is not happening any longer.

Thank you all.
