I have 3 different google hosted email accounts added to the gmail app on my galaxy. When I try to email a file/photo/... from other apps on the phone the account that was added last is used. I know that you can not change the From: email account with gmail app but is there a way to set the default account for sending emails? I want the emails to be sent from the first account which is a default one for the phone so I am not sure why the 3rd one is used. Any ideas?

Anyone know how to add my gmail account to my SGS social hub.
My gmail account is setup on my phone but its not in my social hub.
When I put text into "write and..." then click send, my gmail account is not showing up in the list.

Your Gmail account has to be added to the "Email" app to show in the Social Hub.
Email (a white envelope with a green @ sign) app is different from the Gmail app.
Well maybe there is a better answer, but here is what I did: To get the calender to even work it seems I had to setup a gmail account, so I setup my gmail account in the gmail app. I then disabled all the syncing for that accout (calender, contacts, mail). I then added my gmail account to the social hub (it has its own gmail support) and set that account to sync everything. Seems to work fine, only annoyance is when I want to add something to the calender I see two entries for my gmail account, but I just have to pick the one that goes with social hub.
If anyone has a beter solution, please post
Thanks for the tips.
I added both my gmail accounts to social hub and it's now working.
I have 4 email accounts on my phone, 2 my domain and 2 gmail. I can now send from any of them.
This is by far the best phone I ebert had.

Hello! So i'm new to the whole android scene, ive been using iPhones for 2 years, and windows mobile for years before that.
Currently on my phone, i have the gmail app for my gmail, some other email app that came with the captivate for my exchange syncing, and im using K-9 mail for my MSN email accounts (there's 3).
Everything works very well EXCEPT for the hotmail accounts. I would prefer to have all of my email accounts in 1 email app where i can open it up, pick the account and choose the folder i want to view (inbox, junk, trash, sent items, etc..)
Im having a tough time finding one... I'm ok with using 2 or 3 but 1 would of course be ideal. The biggest issue im having is the syncing. Ive tried every setting possible and my K-9 mail will not auto sync with the msn/hotmail servers. The only way to get my mail is to get into K-9 mail and tell it to sync, then after several minutes i'll have everything synced and see my new emails.
Is there an app that can combine all these, or just the hotmail accounts that will sync every hour or so automatically that anybody knows of?
Why not auto-forward your hotmail to your gmail. Or POP your hotmail from your gmail? You can set up a filter to label them as hotmail messages, or even use the multiple inbox lab.
There is no good all in one email app

MSN/Hotmail now supports full exchange sync with email, contacts and calendar. MS claims there is known issue with Android 2.1. In my case, I found the contacts sync doesn't work for me. MS advise you to use Android apps like TouchDown etc to do the sync instead.
The exchange server address is m.hotmail.com and use your email address and password to login.
So, you can use the default email app to add exchange sync for your MSN/hotmail account. The downside is that email app limits you to max two Exchange accounts.
Hi guys,
I'm having a rather strange issue since I got my Black, as I've set up two different GMail accounts on my device, my personal account (to which the phone is also registered to), as well as another "work" gmail account to which all my work emails are being forwarded to.
The actual problem is each time I want to send an email via gmail (for example, I'm checking out a photo, hit share, select gmail), it automatically selects the second account added, and I've found no way to select the default "send from" account. Any clue how can I tell the phone which email address I want to send emails from by default using the gMail app?
thanks!
Does anyone know how to setup multiple gmail accounts on IMAP using stock mail app on Tab 7.7. After setting up first email gmail account, the stock mail app doesn't allow a second email account to be setup using the same imap address.
Is there any way to get around this?
Previously I was using Tab 7Plus and did not have this problem.
Thanks
Hi Guys,
Does anyone know if there is a way to set the folders where deleted and sent emails are stored in the default email app.
I am using it mainly for a gmail email account but don't like the gmail app (mainly because it can't send to groups).
I also use Thunderbird on a PC and laptop.
I have set up Thunderbird to use the default gmail folders/labels but the phone email app doesn't seem to have a setting to change the folders, at least not one I can find. So I end up with two sent items and two deleted items folders which is a bit of a pain to manage.
Is there a way to set/change these folders in the email app?
Or, if not, is there another email app that will allow me to set it up to integrate with gmail folders/labels properly and allows sending of emails to groups
not sure but try k9mail
