Re: Limiting how many emails sync.

Welcome to Android Central! Do you have more than one email account in the Email app? Open your Email app, tap Menu>Settings, and select each email account--does each one have a sync limit set?

Re: Limiting how many emails sync.

Thanks for your help. I also have a gmail account but it doesn't show up in the email app. However, I see it is set to syc up to 30 days email so I have reduced it - fingers crossed the problem is now fixed.
