[Q]Email Client

I'll be honest and say my experience with the S2 so far have been pretty poor, the entire android experience feels quite fragmented but I guess that's what you buy into, anyway the question.
It seems like the messages and email app are some sort of Samsung concoction rather than stock gingerbread, maybe this goes for the phone app aswell...? is there anyway I can just rip this samsung meh off and replace it with the stock stuff for the moment until I find a combination of stuff that works or write something better?
Si

have you tried one of the other email clients from the market?
my sg2 is due to come tomorrow so cant comment, but I would recommend k9 mail or enhanced email from the market

I got Profimail its the best email client ever trust me download it and try the trial if you like it register it i have been using it for 7 years on different devices its solid trust me here is the link below

I might be the only person to think like this but Samsung's email app is much better than the stock one imo, same goes for messaging and phone apps. Samsung did a good job with these. That said, if you only want to run stock stuff, why not have gotten a Nexus S? Samsung's stuff is designed to work better with the hardware in their phones and a lot of it is hardware accelerated (like the browser).

I have used K9 Mail for about a year. Its far better than the others and allows for many more configuration options. One can add PGP by installing APG from the Market.
A manual is here:-

How about deleting an account?
Can't seem to find it

I'm quite liking "Enhanced Email" at the moment.
It seems to bypass the pin number requirement policy that our IT guys enforce when setting up Exchange email. It was driving me nuts having to enter the pin code everytime I turned the screen on and off. I can now use the standard lock screen or pattern unlock whilst getting my work email as well. Nice.

When you are in the inbox of an account, you will see the name of the mailbox at the tope left. Tap the top left and it will take you to a summary of your accounts. Then just hit the menu and you will get the option to delete accounts

[Q] Is there a way to delete multiple emails at once?

Currently using the stock email program with my Samsung Epic Touch, which doesn't seem to have an option to delete multiple emails at one time.
Anyone have a work around so one can delete multiple emails at once? In other-words...a select all messages, so you don't have to select each message one by one.
If not, anyone know of an email client that allows multiple email deletion at one time?
Thank you,
Skid

kaiten email does just that..been using it for several months now..

This is not possible with the stock email app.
This is why most people who want to access pop3 accounts use a 3rd party email app. The stock email app also sucks for IMAP accounts that have any real security on them.
Try one of the free email apps in the market... K-9 is actually pretty good, and is what I use to access my work email.

[Q] Gmail App doesn't push all my mail

Since last week I have some problems with the gmail app on my One X. I don't seem to get all my emails on my phone. When I check my mail online, there is still unread email in my inbox?? I didn't get these emails on my phone? Somehow gmail didn't push them..
Furthermore I also don't receive push notifications from friendcaster. Only when I open the app, the messages get pushed??
Anyone here with the same problems?

Hello
Try clearing the cache.
Then go in to settings clock on your account and make sure Email notfications is tricked

As above ... clear cashe

Make sure you have auto sync enabled you cannot have push mail without it.

Stupid question but..where is the clear cache option in the mail app?

Find it in settings>applications find there your app and hit the clear button

Yes,i am using it because i have many account on multiple providers so i need the built in mail app.
EDIT:
I recommend to download from the playstore K-9 for pure and after that download Pure Messenger.That will allow you to use how many mail account you want(you set them up in the K-9) and after that add the widget from the Pure Messenger.This is how it looks:

Ok I see.
All I know is that there are diffrent types of protocol's one is POP and one is IMAP im not sure which one it is but I used to have one sent in my outlook and when i logged on to gmail in browser my mail is still there even though i deleted them on outlook.
I think a quick google search will help you fix the problem, al so i think IMAP is the one you need if you want read mail on your phone to be marked as read mail in you outlook/gmail account.
Im sure someone with more experience on this will be able to help you.
Good luck

Which email app you use that'll work with Gmail, Exchange and Android Wear?

I use Gmail and GCalendar - Gmail works great in Moto360 (reply, delete, etc). GCalendar works great in Moto360.
I also use Exchange with Office 365 for work - I use Samsung email app, which work great in my Note 3, but I cannot see the contents of the email in the watch nor reply, delete, etc. Exchange calendar becomes part of Samsung Calendar, which also work with Google Calendar and shows up in Android Wear.
So which email app do you use that work for both of them?
I want the replacement app to:
1). Gmail: can star, move to folder, etc.
2). Exchange: can flag, move to folder, etc.
3). Both can view the contents of the email and act upon it (reply, delete)
4). Calendar on Google and Exchange work
Maybe it's a tall order, but trying to see if there is a solution out thre.

I have Outlook/Exchange for school as well as Gmail for personal use. Gmail works great and Outlook mostly works as well but I can't delete emails for that account from the watch. I'd definitely be interested in an app that could aggregate both accounts into one as long as I can delete messages from the watch itself.

I use Nine - Exchange ActiveSync. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ninefolders.hd3&hl=en
It's a paid app(15 day trial) and I feel it is worth it for the android wear support. It can Delete, Reply ,Flag , and mark as read. (Can't move) Being able to delete an email from my watch like I do with gmail has been great.

Calendar support is good for me. I also can accept and decline meeting requests. This is the first time I have use a 3rd party app for my work email account. I have always used the stock email on Samsung, HTC, and Nexus devices
This seems to do everything I need and has the android wear support. Also the Mailbox search from Nine email is great. It searched my mail on the server very fast.

Battery for the watch? ive been able to use my watch for a single day no problem. Receiving texts, emails, weather updates.
I have my email set to sync every 15mins.
Dont do too much responding with my watch, as its mostly to glance at if its something i need to address. Right now its off the charger since 630am and its not 4:40pm with 70% battery left
so either its me that im not using the watch as much as i should or i have a gem in regards to battery lol

Battery for phone.
I don't use the watch too much for interaction (reply, etc.), but I do want to read so I know which work email I can..ahem.. ignore or delete.

If your (AOSP) phone supports it you can download the default android mail client from here http://d-h.st/K8w and exchange2.apk from https://paranoidandroid.atlassian.net/secure/attachment/11513/Exchange2Google.apk. Google added it to the play store but only for AOSP phones.
If it's for a different phone you might have to remove the default Email2.apk and Exchange2.apk from your system folder and replace it with the ones above using root.
It took some work but I have full wear read/reply for my exchange account.

I strongly suggest Nine. It works extremely well with the watch

+1 for Nine. IMO the best email client on android.

Hey all,
Thanks for the suggestion. I got Nine and this app is the bomb! Allow Application level security instead of Device and work great with Android Wear.

Hmm.. I dont believe I've run into that issue. I have 4 different accts setup (1 actually forwarding to the other cause its school email).
I have the pro, they give it to you for free if you share the app with like 5 people or something
maybe submitting a bug to them about it?

using Newton for exchange email. honestly everything else feels incomplete - Newton has the feel of a polished iOS app. Gmail and the official Outlook app both had issues with push service not working - i'd only get new emails if i refreshed the inbox
having said that, Newton is yearly subscription for $50, so it's more than justifiable for me in a work capacity

I'm using aquamail and love it. I have it configured for exchange and Gmail. Interface is good and intuitive with great support for composing emails with attachments and pulling contacts from exchange server whether it's personal or from the GAL.

If you haven't already tried, you might have to set up a work exchange account manually. A lot of workplace and institutional exchange accounts use specific servers (not the generic Exchange or .live domain), ports, security, etc.
In most instances I've had to enter the smtp server manually, with the correct port and what not. This goes for several occupations I've had and even while I was attending school. You might be able to grab the settings logged into your exchange email at work or just hit up your IT guy and he should be willing to set it up for you.

Hmm.. There must be an option during setup that some apps might have and others don't. Shame, it's a nice email app...

I use Type Mail which used to be called Blue Mail.
I originally installed Blue Mail.
Then one day it updated itself via the Play Store updates and was suddenly "Type Mail".
Oddly enough, it looks like Blue Mail is still out there and being updated.
So IDK what happened there.
Both LOOK like the same exact app.
---------- Post added at 10:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:27 AM ----------
This thread made me finally get off my butt and email Type Mail with a support question:
Hi Folks,
First, I have a question. This was originally Blue Mail and then changed it's name to Type Mail overnight. But Blue Mail is still available on the Play Store. Are you the same app?
Okay, here is my issue that I hope you can help me with.
And I've had this issue on two phones, two OS's so far.
A Moto X Pure on Lollipop and now a Google Pixel on Nougat.
I did not have this issue on Marshmallow.
So, I disable "Battery Optimization" from TypeApp.
But Type App still seems to go into too deep a sleep?
If the phone has been sleeping for an hour and someone sends me an email, then Type App will not recognize that email and wake the phone.
It seems to only poll for email once every couple hours or something?
I've always used the "push" option when given a chance.
Thanks for the great app, please let me know if there is anything that can be done to ensure I am notified of emails more quickly.

Technically, I think the thread goes in Q&A since it's a question.
Themes is more for where you go to post themes for download or mention how much you like a theme/app.

Used to use Blue mail but moved over to Aqua it works great. You should really check their privacy statements and judge for yourself, that is the reason I switched.

I use it for all the same types of accounts except for Gmail and the push is working fine via IMAP. What I like is the ability to use an email alias within the Aqua app, paid version of course.
