I set up my school email on my phone via exchange. I have this really annoying issue where the emails that I receive from school are cut off on the right. It's like the email is too big to fit on the screen.
This problem is a recurring one regardless of which ROM I have. Is there a way to auto fit the email on the screen? If I were to compose a new email everything shows up fine.

Try an app instead of the native exchange one. Should get you going in the right direction. I think k9 is one

Ok. Thanks I will try it.

I had a bit of a debacle with the DI18 Gmail app yesterday. I received a really important email and replied to it promptly through the Gmail app, hit send and then took a nap. Two hours later, I wake up and see that my reply was STILL SENDING.
Even worse, I checked my Gmail on a computer and it said the email I replied to WASN'T EVEN READ.
So I flashed the ACS-modified DK28 and it seems to be working better, but now it seems the most important calls I make are MUTED on the other end, and they still connect.
So I'm left with a dilemma: is there a good working email app (Gmail or non-Gmail) out there that just WORKS??? (I've tried K-9 Mail but I didn't really like it) Or should I stay with the working DK28 version and have randomly muted calls?

Honestly there are not many alternatives. You already tried K9. I am not having any issues with calls or gmail. Not sure what is going wrong on your end. Did you wipe everything before flashing?

Yes, I did a complete wipe.
I remember I always had a problem with sync in stock DI18 for some reason, like when I first got the phone. (Actually, on stock DI18, there wasn't even an option to sync my Google Calendar on an account that had one.) That's why I started working with roms and rooting and etc.
Are you using exchange?

No, I'm just using Google accounts. Sometimes they work, sometimes not.
MailDroid is a good option.
I was having the same issue. Make sure auto-sync is checked in Setting->Accounts and Sync. If that doesn't in the Gmail app you can go to your outbox and manually force the email to be sent.
I like the galaxy tab one

Yes, Maildroid is good but it has an ads.
SEVEN is a push type email app that I've been using since my 755p days, back when it was packaged with my Treo, it was called Sprint Email...but it was created by SEVEN. It's not downloadable from the Market, you have to goto SEVEN's website, click on their beta program and then jump through random hoops until you can download it. I had it on my Moment and now me Epic and I love it. I run 6 different email accounts, from Yahoo, Hotmail, Gmail, and AOHell and they all work perfectly, show images (from Harbor Freight ads for example) and even shows unique icons on the taskbar for each email account. Just make sure to set it up correctly, otherwise it'll do things like not check email during certain hours or on the weekends (a feature I'd never use) or below certain battery percentages. No ads and a great app, and it even comes w/ a beta IM app.
I might be the only one having this issue, but the default email app for Exchange doesn't keep the words together when it goes to the next line.
Here is an excerpt from an email:
"In todays fast paced business environm
ent, we all have to wear multiple hats to
remain competitive in this challenging ec
onomy."
See how the words just continue on the next line?
I can't find a setting to fix this.
And if I can't get this fixed, is there any other *good* apps other than touchdown to connect through activesync?
Mine doesnt seem to have this problem. I not sure what would be causing it for you.

I have the same issue with default Email app. I also see the full headers which make reading email really difficult. The actual email text is hard find with all the header and other text.
I use Exchange Active Sync adapter to connect to Lotus Notes email. Never had problems with other Android stock emaill apps.
I tried other Exchange email apps and have settled down with Moxier Mail.
Edit: I tried resetting the account on stock email app but it didn't help.
Hope this helps.

Resetting the accounts didn't help mine either. I can't wait until this thing is rooted...
Found the *kinda* fix. If you set the phone to download the entire message instead of just 2k or 100k or whatever, then it fixes the behavior. It's only when you download a partial message that words are broken onto the next line.
Email has always worked perfect up until the last few days. It will randomly stop syncing and I have to power it off and back on for it to fix the problem. Everything looks normal. It will not send or receive though.
Everything else seems to work except the email. It's already caused me quite a few problems with not getting messages in a timely manner.
Any thoughts.
I have experienced the same problem also... i kept wondering for few days why i am not getting any emails and than one day my battery died so when i rebooted i the phone my inbox got tons of emails from few days back... i wish to know the answer too
What email are you trying to sync? Hotmail?

hotmail and yahoo... both got backed up for few days... any ideas?
I'm experiencing the same for Gmail. Anybody know of a fix?

I'm having the same, or a similar, issue with Exchange mail. Randomly it won't bother to sync it on push until I open up the mail app. All my Gmail works fine, just this.
I may have found the problem. I took off my live wallpaper yesterday and put a standard one back on and my email hasnt quit working since.
I had the 3D Hyperspace Live Wallpaper, which I really like and hate to lose. I'm still monitoring it but I lost email pretty frequently until I went back to the standard wallpaper so there's a good chance thats the problem.
I'll update with results.
Some more info on my problem and my phone:
I have four yahoo email accounts and one gmail account. My yahoo accounts would stop syncing and nothing you could do would refresh them. Nothing would make them sync other than turning the phone off and back on.
My phone is rooted with sfhubs root which has worked flawlessly so far. Not sure if that has anything to do with it or not.
Well I noticed my Hotmail stopped syncing around the time they made the official Hotmail app. I thought it maybe something on Hotmail side of things not allowing it to work but I guess not. I am not rooted and am all stock but the official Hotmail app works great so I just said forget the other one. Let me know if anyone finds a fix.

My gut feeling is that it stopped syncing because i was " clearing memory" from that inbuilt Samsung task manger... since i stopped using "clear memory" the email seems to sync properly ... maybe i am wrong ... i don't know...
Update:
It's been three days since I took the live wallpaper off. I had no problems for three days...
Until this morning. Email hadnt synced since last night. I had to reboot the phone and the emails came rolling in.
I'm going to put the live wallpaper back on and see how it reacts.
My new galaxy nexus should be arriving soon but I was wondering if the following problem has been fixed. HTML formatted email, in my current ICS running device, do not show up correctly in the native email client(not the gmail app as I have to use exchange for my work). I always have to scroll to the right and down to view the whole thing. Is there an option to fit the entire email to the screen similar to how the ios mail app handles it? Thanks!
anyone?
Nope, not fixed. Stock 4.0.4 Nexus here, unrooted.
Still have to scroll to the right for some emails and yes, very annoying! This goes for gmail and the stock mail app.
The same applies for CM9 you would have to scroll down and right to centre page your mail, then again, I'm glad there's no lag in doing so unless your 3G takes an era to load.
Thanks folks! Any reason for why this is so difficult of an issue for google to fix. i used to have an old froyo device and thought this would have been fixed by now but guess not.
Anyone else having an issue where read messages don't stay marked as read? I've been having to re mark emails as read daily.

Yes. Even my note 1 was terrible with this. I'd delete messages even and they pop back up multiple times randomly. It's been pretty agitating, and I've gotten to the point where I just stopped the notifications.

Did you try using a 3rd party email app to see if it made a difference?
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note II (SGH-I317) on the infamous AT&T Network.
Yes, no change. This is yahoo, road runner, gmail, and the att.net via yahoo that all do it repeatedly on any device except via web browser. Tried an ipad, iphone, note 10.1, the first note phone, and both of the note 2's I have had. The apple devices don't copy the alerts for only the roadrunner account, otherwise all 4 accounts repeated the same problem.
Have you found any solution? I am not sure why all those different gmail and yahoo accounts would act so strangely but it is typical for me. Haha

Nope, unfortunately no solution as of yet but it's annoying as he'll, and I know that much!

This probably won't help, but I'll put it out there anyway. I've noticed that when I go into any web based email client (Comcast, for instance) the mail on my phone from that account...refreshes, is the best way I can put it. Mail I've already deleted from my phone pops up again as new and I have to go through and delete it again. That has happened on pretty much every phone I've used. Never really looked into it too deeply, but it is annoying.

Definitely true! I never had an issue with any devices for years now until my note 1 hit ICS official. I am not sure how it coincides but that is the only thing I know of that changed. Strange stuff. I have the same trouble, especially clear from device to device.
I may just try a 3rd party app to see if that helps. Maybe K9 Mail or similar. Will report back.

Just a few thoughts of what I've seen in the past. You may already know all this but FWIW, whatever.
1. pop3 email accounts are crap. Usually when you delete, it still stays on the server until you delete in webmail or something with true access to email.
2. Setting up email accounts with imap will delete off the server. It's not perfect like Exchange but better than pop.
3. I've often used the settings in gmail to push or pull email from my other none gmail accounts. For example my home internet company will only send usage alerts to the email account they provide. They also don't allow access to see the email unless you are on their network (at home) or go to their site and check their webmail app. So I use gmail pull tool to automatically check for new emails every so often (Gmail decides the frequency) and pull the new mail into my gmail account, then they show up on my phone. One time I accidently created a loop of three email addresses, one pushing and one pulling email so 1 email continually delivered over and over until I realized what I had done. "Broadcast storm anyone??" You may want to check how many devices are getting access to that email address, it could be something like #4.
4. I've seen a problem where my home desktop PC has Outlook installed. When outlook is open I think it would receive the email before my phone and save it to the PST, so my phone would never see it. Except there was a setting in outlook to "Leave emails on the server for X amount of time. Which was great because then my phone would see them even though outlook pulled them into the PST file. However I also noticed when I deleted the email from my phone it would reappear and I think it was because I had outlook leave it on the server. If my PC was shut off I had no problems. Another way I could clear it was to go to a webmail site and login to my email and delete them off the server. Then they would still be in my PST from the first time they arrived and I could also delete them off my phone only this time they would not reappear because I had gone into the server and deleted them. I bet this is as clear as mud right. Meh
One of these above may be a factor.
I am using apex launcher and the symptoms have minimized or fixed.... but this is an android issue... android doesn't do push like the iPhone...
on the iPhone...you delete an email and a couple of secs later.. it is gone from the web... and vice versa...
on android you have to wait till it syncs... it doesn't do push...
these are the things that make me want to go back to iPhone... i wish we could install iOS on this big phone!

Yahoo mail app does push for certain, and so does hotmail, even to the native email app. I just cant seem to get the yahoo mail app to zoom ever, and it makes reading messages impossible. I get the same repeated emails in ios also, so it isn't free of similar issues for me at least.
