[Q] Slow email client on Galaxy S

Email download is a pain ... is there any way I can speed this up? Used to be blazing fast on the WinMobile Omnia, how can it be that with Galaxy I have to wait for minutes? Thank you.
Take care,
BB

Same issue here...

You could use Gmail. It´s very fast, at least it feels much faster (downloading attachments and even open mails) than the pop/imap mail client of the SGS.

gmail seems slow. i hit refresh and it wont show me the new mail for almost a minute, even on a fast wifi connection. dunno whats up with that.

install the one click lag fix discussed in the rom development thread. or search market place for the "lagfix".
all slow issues in email resolved.
if ur having slow email after that... well i have no idea? my hotmail exchange works fine and quite speedy... except for the fact the default email app doesnt render html

I'm using this K9-mail app. Pretty fast.

Profi Mail from LCG is coming soon to Android.

wow.. thanks.. used it and true... blazing fast.. just deleted the default mail of SGS lolz

K9 beats any email clients ever made for android and it's free!

I installed k-9 mail. How to stop the stock gmail and email client of SGS and make k-9 as default email client ?
And does it support hotmail and yahoo ?

Just delete all the accounts in the default email client.
And in gmail, settings-> e-mailnotification. Unmark it.

the fastest one is "Samsung Push Email & IM"
then comes Gmail from Google Apps
K9 is good, but it's slow compared to both of the above

Combination of "One click lad fix" and "k9" will all email issue.

k9 is too much slow. Need better client. Any suggestion please??

[Q] Email app formatting problem

Hi
I use my rooted Epic 4G with my work Exchange account. Every time I send a message, it looks like an HTML bomb hit it: when you look at the message using Outlook it is full of HTML <br> characters, and the details of the message that I replied to are mixed into my signature.
Can anyone recommend an alternative e-mail app for the Epic 4G that still works with Exchange push e-mail and contacts, or perhaps a setting I can change in the normal e-mail app that will solve the problem?
My e-mail program is version 2.2.1 (from the wonderful ACS 1.1.0 ROM).
CPM

I have 2.3.4.1 from midNight ROM v5.2. Attached here. Try that one and see how it works for you.

Thanks, I will try that. Backup first

The Email app should support HTML email just fine - your Exchange server might be poorly configured. Give K9 Mail a try.

Cyanogenmod/MIUI and Exchange email security issues...

Hi all,
I wanted to flash my phone with one of those two roms...but when I did so I realised that the AOSP email app would not be compatible with the security measures of my corporate email server.
Is it possible to have the HTC Sense email, but using one of those two amazing roms instead of an HTC ROM?
If possible, any step by step help would be well appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your time guys.

You cant use HTC email, no.
What makes you think android client is no compliant?

Hi mate thanks for response. I get a message that my server requires security features that my phone doesn't support when I use the email app of miui or cyanogenmod. When I use HTC sense ROM with HTC email app the phone does support those security features..
I can use HTC mail with no probs with HTC ROM....cant use miui or cm mail app though....

Does it say what security features? Mine works with exchange+mobile iron and also BPOS.

Unfortunately that's all it says. It's basically a feature that asks you to insert another unlock password to your phone for safety, and if you insert the password wrong for like 10 times it remotely deletes the data on the device, or something like that.
I saw that other people would get the same error with these roms, but couldn't find a solution to the problem That's why I thought maybe by installing the HTC email app...though it will probably not work because of the different rom framework? Any ideas?

Like i said, you cannot use the HTC email app. If I knew more about your email system/server, maybe I could help... The basic android client, if added as exchange/BPOS and device admi has ability to wipe device, so not sure what system you are coming from as it should work.
Could try K9 mail on market? Or touchdown (pay)

Thanks again. Already tried and they dont work..only original sense mail

Then there is something dodgy about your email system. Speak to your Exchange administrator.

Several people have the same problem....but thanks anyway

So what? Several people also do not. I am an exchange administrator and I do not have any problem using the android email client. Like I said, speak to your exchange administrator to get it resolved. Thanks anyway

Unfort I dont have that option
Ill have to stick with the 2.3 sense ROM. The admin said to just use the ROM my phone ships with.
I believe it is some feature missing from the cm and miui anyway. Not a server issue.
If anyone has a solution to the problem please let me know.
Thanks again for your time.
Just found this:
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/20856-exchange-security-policies/
This is exactly the same problem. It's CM7/MIUI not supporting

I've used probably a dozen different ROMs at my current job w/out any problems from exchange. Up until last week, they only required SSL and to allow them to wipe the phone remotely. Last week the exchange admins enabled another security feature where we have to have a PIN set. CM7, MUIU, Synergy, etc. don't work. Only the OTA ROMs work! :crying: The email client is all I can tie it to since the other ROMs seem to use a different client where the domain is entered on a separate line than the userid.
I am pretty upset that I lost the speed and features of the other ROMs so I would appreciate it if someone could tell me a workaround of tell me of another ROM that uses the same mail client as the OTA ROMs.

Touchdown supports all mail policies and should work for you. This includes the PIN and remote wipe policies.

Touchdown isn't free. There should be a native workaround for this. I have had no problems with CM based roms until MIUI.

Best HTML App that supports multiple accounts?

Just as the title says. However, I need it to support Microsoft Exchange with Hotmail as well. I've been using the stock e-mail app, but it doesn't support HTML and I'm sick of it.
Any suggestions?

Enhanced Email

[Q] Exchange email?

Morning all,
Just a quick question, im about to try a non sense based rom but will need to use an exchange email app, Ive been using HTC mail app
for exchange and its brilliant, is there an alternative on non HTC roms?
Thanks
Andy

K9Mail is a good mail app
or
AquaMail
or
MailDroid
They're all on the play store and I'm sure all have free versions so test them all and decide yourself?
Hope this helps.

Thanks ive used all of these for gmail previously but didnt think they worked with exchange server?
