Problem with yahoo email - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

I have a customer that is having issues with her yahoo email. First, the problem she had was that everytime a new email came in. It would show some form of spam message in the notification bar but when you clicked on it it would go to the right email. I recommended remvoing the email account and re adding it to the phone. Now she's not having that problem but she's not getting any notifications and old emails that she had read are now showing up unread after refreshing the email account. any help will be greatly appreciated.

Is she using the default email app or the Y! Mail app from Yahoo? I haven't had the issues you described when using either one, but maybe she can try a different app than the one she's using now.

She's using the phone email app. I tried the Yahoo mail app but it wouldn't show old emails because it's a business's email.

Hmmm... not sure - I don't know why being a business email would have any issue with showing old emails on Yahoo. Only other thought I had was to try a different email client like K-9 or Mail Droid and see if you have better luck with that.

How to use multiple accounts at gmail?

I'm using gmail with one major gmail account plus few pop3 accounts.while using gmail at web I can chose which account name use for send out emails.i need sometimes to answer from another account name while still using one gmail login.
At android gmail application I cannot find such feature as changing "from"name. Any ideas?

The gmail app supports multiple accounts. Use that.
Also, you can go into your gmail settings from your PC and have one of your gmail accounts access your other POP3, managing those account for you. You can even set them up with a filter with autolabeling so they stand out in your inbox, also set them up so they show the original email when you reply.
I manage 7 email addresses this way, it works perfectly if you take the time to set it up well.

Now Im totally confused .
Via web Im using one gmail account ([email protected]) which receives mails from this adress and from 3 other servers via POP3. Mails are flagged - just as you described. We are here same, but:
- when I write answer to @gmail.com - it goes with @gmail.com, one answering for some POP3 message - answering as POP3 account owner. Via website everything is OK.
Via [email protected] if I receive mails to @gmail.com or any other POP3 Im always answering with the name and account set in Gmail application. So if somebody sends me email to account which is checked by gmail via POP3 once I answer from web - looks good, answered from phone - not as I use @gmail answering profile.
How can I match those in HTC to settings from Web?
Use K9 mail available from market, it let's you set up your gmail account and send e mails from different accounts

There are two email clients on android. The gmail app and the mail app. Use the later for multiple pop accounts and gmail at the same time. You can set up as many as you want. It's all built in. The google mail app is crap imo, just switch to the HTC one

Did you ever find a solution? I have the exact same question I have a gmail account, but my main email account is a work pop3. I used to use Outlook on my desktop and k9 on my EVO, but they didn't sync. Recently I changed over to using Chrome browser and gmail at work. I set gmail to check my work POP3 account and also have it set to send outgoing mail through the work pop3 server. My default "FROM" is my work POP3 address, but I can change the "FROM" to my gmail account using the drop-down in the "fROM" field. I also have another personal POP3 that I also have gmail checking and can send from that one as well.
My problem is that I can't select the FROM address when using the gmail app on my HTC EVO. It always addresses new messages from my default account which is the work POP3.
I like the gmail integration and don't want to to back to using multiple accounts in K9.
I cannot send outgoing email when out and about, but can receive incoming email anywhere.
When back in house and wifi, outgoing email suddeny sends.
I use pop3 on ukonline, so is there some security settings not working when not on wifi in house?
Sorry to hijack this thread, but I did a search and this was only topic that returned.
Your SMTP settings will be incorrect.
I suspect that you will be using UKOnlines SMTP server for outgoing mail, which is fine when you are connected via WiFi (and hence, via their network), but will not work via Mobile Internet unless they allow authenticated access from outside their network.

MSN email help needed

I'm trying to help my dad set up his MSN email account on his EVO. He's using the HTC email app. It says he is signed in but shows no emails in his inbox and gets no new emails. Is there something specific we are missing???

I'm importing all the emails to gmail using pop3 or impt including hotmail(msn).
I don't have to use additional email apps.

Email App

I try to use Stock Email App. I found push option only to be with Microsoft exchange (others have only Smart Sync or 5 minuts minimum). I tried to use it but I have a problem.
Once I receive the email and read it, it does not update the server that I have read the email and it is still marked as unread on google.com site.
IS there any solutions?
Use the gmail app

He says on the google.com site so I'm assuming it's gmail
I am using Gmail.
With Gmaill app I dont have banner notification on lock screen and no unread mail counter.
have you checked the notification settings are correct?
the app also cannot display an unread count on the icon - you need a launcher such as apex or to use an app like this

notification for browser-based email?

I cant seem to forward my college's email to my gmail or any other email app. My school just updated its email platform so I am now able to check it via my phone's browser. My question is: is there any way for me to receive notifications for new emails this way?
No, has to be an app.
You could however, just set up your Gmail account so all the college email gets forwarded into that, and that way you receive notifications.

Maybe you can set up a email account on your phone (if it's POP3, IMAP or Exchange android supports it).

yeah but then when I reply (to my teachers, etc) it will show my gmail address instead of my school email address.
btw the stock email app for my old OG droid worked fine with my school email but my Dinc with CM7 doesnt have the same stock email app?

[Q] stock email client shows junk mail

Been using the Yahoo email client and recently decided to add my Yahoo details into the stock Note 3 email app.
Issue I have is that now the stock email app is downloading all my junk emails into my inbox.
Anyway to resolve this please as I'd much prefer to use the Samsung email client as opposed to the yahoo email app. Thanks.
Edit. Deleted 24 junk emails but they have re appeared again. Looks like the emails are not deleting on the yahoo server.
