Now that I've finally received the 5.01 Lollipop OTA, I have the privilege of using the Gmail app for all my email needs. Including my work Exchange email account.
In previous ASOP email clients you had the ability to control synching of individual Exchange Inbox sub-folders. I have a couple of subfolders that I want synchronized automatically, due to some Rules based sorting I have setup on the exchange server, but I can't find where to set that up now in the new gmail app.
Has anyone else found it yet?

Hi
I'm about to get a desire but have heard bad things about email support.
I need the ability to access multiple (5+) email accounts to send and receive email. This is a mixture of IMAP, POP3 + Gmail.
Is the default app capable of this or is another app available ?
Thanks
K9 does multiple accounts very well and is free. Supports IMAP (inc. push) and POP3. For Gmail you could use either protocol I think or even the built-in Gmail account (not used myself).
I have created a number of subfolders in my new hotmail, and i have set hotmail to sort my email from recipients in these folders.
so i really need to be able to see my folders in a mail app i want to use on my desire.
the standard mail app does not work yet (cannot create exchange activesync account)
i have tried maildroid and k9. they can connect with hotmail and show my inbox, but i can not get them to show my folders.
does anyone have an idea on how to solve this with the programs. or with another program maybe?
so just wondering what email apps people are using and which ones they prefer. Now that hotmail has released exchange activesync support, im lookin for the best exchange email app, im currently using the stock android email app. Bit dissappointed that there is no unread counter widget for the this similar to sms.

Have a look at K-9 mail, it does support exchange. You might also want to take a look at Pure Messenger widget also.
i am also using k-9 since it has imap idle (push mail)
TouchDown - best app for exchange
K-9 didn't worked with my work exchange
Unfortunately, K-9 doesn’t currently work with Hotmail Exchange active sync.
I agree with the op, anyone know of a good email application for Android?
Ideally this is what I would like out of the mail application.
1. To support Hotmail Exchange Active Sync
2. To Support Multiple Exchange accounts including G-Mail
3. To support push email over certain times
4. To allow synchronising of all emails not just one moth
5. To allow the ability to move emails to different folders
6. To be able to create, delete and rename folders
7. To be able to view HTML emails properly
8. To be able to download attachments
9. To have a home page widget that counts unread emails
Hope some bright spark reads this and can either point us in the right direction or create an app that does this.
I am using the stock e-mail with exchange server. However, since I have server based filters that divert emails to specific folders, I am getting only the emails that arrive to my Inbox and not the other e-mails? Any solution to that problem before replacing the stock with something else (Moxier or touchdown)? Thanks
I'm coming from a 4.4 Nexus 5, where if I add an account to the standard email app I get the choice between POP3/IMAP/Exchange.
On the 5x, the stock app doens't have Exchange as an option?
I like keeping gmail (personal) with the gmail app, and the stock email app for my business mail.
How do I enable exchange?
There is no separate Email app for Exchange; they all get rolled into the Gmail app.
To setup an Exchange account, go to Settings->Accounts->Exchange.
You could also separate them using a 3rd-party app such as Touchdown.
Found a solution - install the exchange service from my N5 on 4.4, and this allows the stock email client to then use Exchange Server as an account type.
does your contacts app allow you to search the exchange database? (gap) no matter what current I use the exchange server doesn't auto fill email addresses and contacts are not listed
Check out the Nine app - it blows the stock app and Gmail away IMO

I've used Nine, Mailwise (beta tester) and Boxer (beta tester) all great email apps for exchange, unfortunately, for me, they don't allow the contacts to search the exchange directory as it does on my other devices.

How did you do this? I tried to find the apk to move to the n5x but only saw exchange2.apk in system apps.
The apk I copied from 4.4 was
Exchange Services 6.2-1227136
Version of email client
Email 6.3-1218562
