I think the only way to get push from yahoo is to get the yahoo mail app from the market place.

Hmmm and for Google accounts also? I can't I have push in k9 or other email app besides stock?

Push happens at the other end, the phone end pulls emails. An app on the phone an allow it communicate with the server but can't make the server push .

Oh ok so but if yahoo as push shouldn't k9 use it.?

[Q] Email App on GN?

Could someone please give an idea of what the email client on the GN can do? I'm on the SGS2 at the moment and, while not perfect, the built in email client allows to search the server and control the sync via schedules.
Is the Email on the Galaxy Nexus just like the AOSP 2.3 version, are there any enhancements, does it have issues with wake locks?
TIA
I use it to connect to my exchange server at work. It seems the same as the 2.3 app except it has a white instead of black theme. I haven't noticed any other differences. And yes you can set the check frequency to your liking.

Thanks. Can it search emails that have NOT been synced to your device? And can you tell it to push Mo - Fr 07:00 - 23:00 and do manual pull the rest of the time?
TIA
Nope.
If I needed those features, i would use Touchdown.

Yes, I have bought touchdown but sadly it supports push on ONE account only which is unacceptable to me. I need to receive push emails from several businesses and would prefer not to forward them into a single mailbox....

Umm, if you have Gmail and setup your phone with your account it will be pushing it if you set it to!?
hmm so it means in the exact moment i receive an email it gets to my phone?
yes. If not, go to Settings, Accounts and check that Google gmail is ticked to sync.

Email Apps

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.

AquaMail Pro. I must have tried them all, but this one is the nicest in my opinion!

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.

I've been using K9 for the last...three?... years now and I just love it... in my opinion the best one out there. I'm managing six IMAP accounts with it and it works just flawlessly... fast, reliable, I love it... :good:

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.

AW: Email Apps
I recently tried Aquamail and it was not bad... I still like K9 better, but Aquamail is rather great too...

I have not found an email app I like better than maildroid. I highly recommend it.

Voice Announce?
Does anyone know of an email client or add-on that would speak at least the subject of the arriving imap mail?

I liked maildroid but kept crashing when using reply to all. Really wish there was a powerful outlook like application that supported exchange and hotmail/gmail etc.

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.

What Email app do you guys use for push?

I am using the Samsung Stock email app, setup as Microsoft Exchange Active Sync for push, but lately it's giving me some wakelock issues, and that's why I was searching for an alternative. I found an app, called AquaMail, which is cool but couldn't figure out how to enable push even after selecting it. Another one called Emoze, but it didn't even accept my Gmail user and pass, God knows why!
So what do you guys use? Which has push support and also I need sent email notification, just like stock Samsung app.
P.S.: Kindly don't bring up the official GMail app, I hate it.
Thanks in advance.

I am using yahoo mail
A have also never used Gmail stock app.
I have just forwarded Gmail to yahoo.
Though this may not acceptable for all, but best suits me as yahoo is my primary email and using since more than a decade.

Aqua-mail is fantastic.
Well you could try mobi mail and touch down ,
Touchdown is my favorite but its little expensive I wanted it to setup an activesync account .

Guys, try maildroid. the best email client for android...Just Awesome.
k-9 mail is the best I've tried. From all the apps I've tried, only aquamail and k-9 work with push notifications (imap). The rest apps I've checked (including stock mail app) doesn't work with push.

Hotmail

(Q) since the major outage of hotmail earlier this week my hotmail won't sync on stock email app or outlook.com app. I can access it through a web browser but not the apps. Any help? Thanks

Well if Hotmail is down, then Hotmail is down. You cant do anything about it.

Let me clarify. Hotmail was down earlier this week but is not still down. It can be accessed via web browser but not the apps mentioned. No need to state the obvious.
