Which email program do you use? Do you use the gmail app, the email app, or a separate application?
I personally prefer the look and functionality of the email app, but the quickness of the gmail app and it's push gmail notifications.
anyone else?
Personally, I don't care for either of the email apps on the phone. I use K9 for everything.

k9 you say. i'll look into that.
Don't use the version that's in the Android Market. It's actually an older version. If you search for it on Google, you can get the code.google.com page with the latest version and then Sideload it onto your phone. I believe the latest is 3.102.
Edit: I stand corrected, it's now 3.105

Heh, I already had it downloaded before i read this, but I put the newest version on like you said and the one issue I had is fixed already.
On the market version, it wasn't going directly to my inbox. on the 3.105 it does. I really like this app. thanks for the suggestion.
Anytime
It seems to fill in the voids left by the default Email app that comes with the phone.
I use mail droid but it's still in beta, I can't get links to open the browser sometimes. It does supposedly work with microsoft exchange servers. I'll look into k9

When i tried K9 a month ago, it was agonizingly slow - attributed to the phone lag by most.
Are you guys seeing the lag, or do you have the lag fix installed? Maybe K9 changed something?
Also, have they added real PUSH/Sync yet for Gmail and Exchange or are they still polling and doing WebDav stuff?
Do you have a link for it or what you actually searched for in google, I can not seem to find it.
thanks!

I switched from using the Gmail and Email apps to K-9. So far I prefer it because of the options and the integrated inbox w/ push for my gmail account.
double post...
Thanks, I was thinking it was a google product and was searching for the wrong thing. Just installed it and looks pretty good so far.

Unfortunately, it's still not real push yet, but the app itself does seem to be pretty fast now. But I have it poll every 2 hours and that works fine for me.
Edit: They also seem to be churning out lots of bug fixes and releasing the updated version pretty fast. It went from 3105 to 3107 as of 8 hours prior to this edit.
I have tried quite a few as the stock left a lot to be desired. I used Maildroid,while good, it was very slow for me. I tried Seven until I noticed it sent an international mms everytime you added an account and doesn't do HTML emails. Now I'm down to K-9 which I like, just visually unappealing.
I guess its just trial and error until you find features you like.
After reading this thread I downloaded k9 and I do agree its better than maildroid. It gives the notification faster (i have both running right now) and the universal mailbox is icing on the cake. Thanks guys!

I honestly don't love any mail client. I tried K9, but it is terribly ugly and more importantly than that, it doesn't do pinch zoom smoothly at all. The samsung app is very attractive looking, but its slow as hell and doesn't do push for gmail. Ultimately, I am currently sticking with the gmail app. Since no other app does what I want anyway, I figure why not use the fastest one? With push for gmail and faster performance, I'll switch back to the stock samsung app...maybe in a new version? I guess we'll see...
If only the Gmail app would let you select/copy text from the messages...

I never knew that, then again, never tried to do it.
And for those who say K9 isn't very visually appealing, if it works, and does what you need when you need it to, then I can't see a reason to complain. You could say the same about a car, if it's your only choice, and it gets you from point A to point B in one piece and on time, you take it.
I dunno man, I bought a mercedes cause I like the comfort, it's stylish, and because I simply won't be caught driving a hyundai. Having said that, I just installed K9 and it's pretty ugly, more like driving a kia I suppose. Uninstalling now. Stock gmail app for me it is!

Has anyone else noticed that when you reply to an email in the native Email app (hosted exchange account here) nothing that you type appears in the reply?

Wow, glad you mentioned this. Just tested and the same thing happens to me. Looks like I will have to go back to 2.1.

No need to do that quite yet. Go to Froyo issues thread in general, and look for a link to the CM6.1 Email app. Replace the stock apk and odex with the downloaded file and the beta issues will be overcome.
I've got my NC rooted with GMail and Market working ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=871210 )...
Next, it would be great to have contacts imported properly. Does anyone have any ideas how to get contact sync working with Google on the NC?

Lets just go ahead and add Calendar as a direct addition to Contacts. I believe the biggest hurdle was getting the market ported so gmail sync was locked in. Now that permissions seem to work, hopefully these two (contact/calendar) can quickly be sideloaded and installed without a hitch.
Thanks!
Can you either upload or show us where to download the 2.1 contacts/calendar apks?
I've gotten the Calendar working, but not contacts. Was just asking about that here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9784134#post9784134
(also links there to the old cyanogenmod zip where I grabbed the Calendar apks ... just pushed 'em over, and all worked fine -- this is after getting market/gmail working with the instructions on nookdevs)

Thanks for the link.. Lets hope replacing contacts isnt too difficult with the existing NC bloat in the stock build.
PM sent for instructions on adding Calendar... Thanks!

Does anyone know of any apps on the market right now that make your gmail look like the gmail shown in the honeycomb press conference yesterday? it almost looks like outlook, i've seen a few listed on here but do any of them have auto sync where the emails go right to the inbox without you having to refresh the page?
cant wait for honeycomb OS to be put onto our tabs
