I wondering if any one has used any good email clients. The one on the stock android is good for personal use but falls really short for work purpose.

Good question, I am looking for the same thing because I use Road Runner. And man, t-Mobile jacked my phone up. They set up a filter and all my emails where sent to my phone as a text message. Now I can not find out how to fix it because sometimes my email works and sometimes it doesnt and I think that the filter is screwing everything up. I called them and they said that they deleted the filter, however it still sends my messages via text.
Super Annoying!!!
I saw some one mentioned k-9 Mail, its much better than the
One that comes with the phone. If there is one btter than that then please suggest.

How about Touchdown by Nitrodesk? I've been using it for a couple of years now and I like it.

In what way do you feel the stock app falls short for work? I use it for work everyday and it does everything I need it too. What features are you looking for in an email app that the stock one doesn't have?
Just curious, that's all.....
Well for one it does not foward attachments and also u can't clear the trash folder.

Odd. I forward mail containing attachments from my work account to my personal account all the time, and they forward just fine. And you can clear the trash folder. Select the account you want, hit menu, folders, trash and then select the messages you want deleted, and hit delete. Done.
I realize it might not be as convenient as some may want, but it does work.
One thing I've noticed with the stock gmail app is that you can't save attachements...unless I'm missing something but when I email a xls spreadsheet to myself it gives me a option to preview it but no save.
im using touchdown for now.
I need to be able to search email and the stock client does not allow for that
I've been using Seven (which is free) on WM for years. It's not nearly as polished on Android, but it's decent. I'm looking for alternatives and will give Touchdown a try.

So I use the email client with my Comcast email account and everything works ok expect one thing. Maybe I am spoiled from HTC with there email app but I used to be able to select one email to delete. Then I would get an option to mass select all my other emails at once so I wouldn't have to check every single one at a time.
I don't see this option in ICS. I have to be missing it as I can't see this as an option they forgot to put in.
I recently noticed this also.

I liked the stock email app on the galaxy S2, I figured that once I got my s3 that email would be similar, but it's not, it is much much worse. Is there any way to install the old mail app from the S2 on the S3?
I have tried the alternative email programs from the play store and I just don't like them.
Please help!
Thanks a million.
Enhanced Email...
I may not be correct, but.... I believe the GS2 used an email program built by Seven.
You may look and find an apk for Seven email+IM that should be similar. I personally cannot find a download link for it.
If you go their website, they do have a BETA Android program. http://community.seven.com/download.php Again, not sure if this is exactly what you are looking for, but may be worth a shot.
Edit: It appears they abandoned Android in the last year or something and the only client they currently are shown as making is the one for Hotmail's Android client. Sorry.
Gmail
Its just fine...

Another recommendation...
K-9 Mail is IMO a good email client. I don't know if it's one of the alternatives you tried and didn't like.
It's larger that Enhanced Email, but cheaper... (free)...
I'm new or I'd post a link to the Play store.
(I have no affiliation with K-9 Mail whatsoever.)

I'm going to try and push the SGS2 email.apk and exchange.apk later this evening. Please feel free to try it first if you have access.
I have been using Secure9 Mail for 6 months. And it has built-in encryption (if you want to use it).

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I've tried all the free email apps on the play store and none of them really did it for me. Finally tried enhanced email too and that is a step in the right direction, hopefully I don't have any troubles from it.
p.s. I have the Gmail app, but I need to access my work email somehow.
Try touchdown by nitrodesk. It's one of the best

Only one I found I liked was Inomail,
What about the AOSP Google email? I think it looks great and works very well.
yea if you need to check an exchange acct at work I usually go between nitrodesk touchdown and moxier mail. One of those should be perfect for you I prefer touchdown really.

do you have the apks for AOSP?
the rom NoAOSP http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1759245
uses the email client from google nexus; a user there said it was the only email client they've used on the S3 that allowed them to connect to their work email.
perhaps download that rom, open the zip with 7zip and pull out the email.apk and put it on your phone.
try to install it normally, if not you may have to copy it to system/app with root explorer (reboot afterwards)
might be worth a look

In the SGS2 email you could make it inverted and control font size from the app.
I pushed the old app every way i could. No joy. May try a flashable zip, but I can't see that making much difference... I guess it would have to be ported.
What email apps are Nexus 7 owners using?
I cannot figure out how to get Nexus to auto-complete email addresses in the stock email app for either gmail or a non-gmail account. is this justmissing or do I need to turn something on?
Any alternatives?
I use mail droid. It has a free and a paid option. Best ive tried so far.

Do any of these do IMAP search on server?
I use Gmail, it auto-completes anything I have in contacts. I use to hate gmail on a mobile device, but I like it on the N7 better than K9, which I was using.
I use K9 on my Nexus 7, not perfect by any means, but, far better than the stock email client. I had problems with attachments using the stock email client.
With K9, I can open, save, view attachments etc., which is what I wanted.
Still searching for a better one ...............
Gmail has everything I need.
Yeah, I'm thinking of adding K9, it actually attaches and opens zip files as well as anything else you want to throw at it. Gmail sucks with attachments.

Just tried k9 on my n7 and works great. Much more configurable than gmail. Just needs an on screen send button and it'd be perfect.
Edit: Found great app for a home screen shortcut to compose new mail, works with k9 or gmail.

I use stock gmail for my gmail and nitrodesk touchdown for exchange. I don't have a problem running 2 different apps for 2 different accounts.
Enhanced e-mail is an app that is close to the standard email app in Android 4.2.1. It has more options.
I use it because this app has an option to synchronize the trash.
Emptying the thrash by selecting messages one by one is no longer needed.

I used stock email app.
Hey everyone,
I have been going through the apps list of apps I have previously used or bought. I am getting to find replacements for contacts, dialer, messenger, email and whatever else.
I believe the extra power and memory we have really opens up some options some of us really did not have before with lesser phones.
So can we come up with some replacements that will work well with this phone? Some general instructions on set up and a link would be great if possible.
Still loving my Nexus 4!!! Still cannot believe I paid more for my last phone which was Galaxy S Plus.. I am so happy with this!! Now I just need to tweak a few things, mainly my email and contacts.
Thanks all!!!! I'm glad to know that I am not the only one that is obsessed with tech..

Handcent user here also. Best and only app i use for messaging!!
Yeah, I have used those in the past actually. Ideally I would love something that manage contacts a little better and ties in with messenger and dialer.
Stock isn't bad really but I just think there is better and I wanted opinions. Some of the noon stock replacements really use tools of battery. Something that sips memory and battery is a requirement for me.
Thanks for the opinions dudes

How about exDialer? I used to use it before I had the N4. App includes a "search based" dialer and contacts.
I'm fine with all the stock apps

I just wish google would add T9 dialing. That's the sole complaint I have about the stock apps.
replaced chrome w/ aosp browser
replaced email with enhanced email
replaced mms and voice with black inverted gapps
I really like the way gmail and the other stock email program sync with the phone. Contacts, etc are synced right when you add an account.
My issue at least regarding email is that I have many, many many accounts. I need to have at least 20 of them on my phone. This means multiple gmail accounts and multiple accounts on the other email program. I hate having to have 2 email programs running.
I have tried and bought many of the email apps, enhanced, IMO, k9, and the others but none of them worked well with this many accounts. Also, I need to have my email contacts synced like the stock apps.
My requirements are an email replacement that syncs contacts and can run multiple imap and pop accounts.
Battery life is also a major concern with this many accounts. Right more do not have these accounts auto syncing or pushing. I refresh manually. The problem with this is that I miss important emails.
As for the rest of the replacements I guess I am just looking to see of there is anything better than the stock dialer/contacts/mms.. The important thing for me is that all of these apps really have to work together. Dialer, contacts, mms, email... these all need to work as one. Is there as replacement that does this?
Thanks all

That's funny.
I was just searching for something to replace yahoo mail, which I've been using for a while but is always buggy.
Last night I was messing around in the play store and came up with blue mail.
It couldn't be easier to set up and so far seems like a good alternative.
I'll give it a day or two and see if I still like it.
