I have a HTC S710 with Windows Mobile 6 installed. I have successfully addded
a number of Email accounts using the Start > Messagin > New E-mail Account
option.

If I now go into Messaging I have 9 listed (text message, Outlook Email,
Gmail, Pop3 email 1, pop3 email 2, MMS, Pop3 email 4, and Windows Live).

I no longer have the New E-mail Account option so can't add any more. Why
would I have lost the option, How do I get it back?

Just a guess, but that is probably the maximum number of Email accounts
allowed.

Thanks for the reply Johnnie, I did think that but didn't want to delete an
existing account to find out if I then couldn't get it back.

I can't see why there should be a limit on the number of accounts and if
there is it would be good if someone actually documented in the program, (how
hard is it just to display a message max email accounts reached) or in some
documentation on the internet. I did have a look.

Because it would be so easy to document I am assuming it is not a limit.

I see that I said I have 9 emails created, in fact that was wrong I have 8.
If someone with Mobile 6 has a bit of time and could try and add 8 and see if
they still get the 'Add new Account' at least I will know I can delete one of
my existing ones and add another one if need be.

I believe you have reached your limit:

"Due to some database limitation, number of e-mail accounts is
restricted to 8. Most devices ship with 2-3 accounts preconfigured
(Outlook, text messages etc). This means you can only have 5-6
additional accounts.



Some T-Mobile phones actually ship with 4 pre-created accounts, the
fourth being a TZones email account, so they'll only allow 4 more
accounts. "

Many thanks for that JasperM, saved me thinking it was a fault and possibly
wasting a load of time trying to reload the software - Why can't they just
have a simple message - maximum number of emails account exceeded, or grey
out the New Email account option?
