Having read a few posts on the subject, it seems not many people have had luck getting this to work? Does anyone know of a method or an alternative mail app that's not the Yahoo Mail app as that's terrible.
Did you get yahoo mail plus? As i know just yahoo mail plus can do it.
Nope. Yahoo Mail basic. That said, I've managed to get it working using IMAP and using TLS instead of SSL. Only thing I gotta figure out now is how to turn off the syncing and how to get it push new messages instantly.

is there a good way to get your yahoo mail in the outlook. There stupid yahoo go software makes you use their app to view and send mail. The old version worked great. Anyone have any good suggestions? Thanks

I think your right but I hope your wrong. The old version 1.X of yahoo go worked great with your mail in outlook. does yahoo allow you to forward your mail? Looks like I am getting a hotmail account.
I searched for a way to do this too. Unfortunately the only free options are:
1. YGo - kinda sucks, push doesn't work, and i don't even get mail manually for 1-4 hours (i tested)
2. get a [email protected]o.co.uk and you get pop3 access, but you get an ad mail every day (or week, can't remember) - seems best solution, but requires that you change your mail adress, unless you already have a .co.uk adress
3. get a IM application which tells you that you have mail (i don't remember which one does, i think i had two that did that) but you don't even get the title of the mail, nevermind the message.
After getting tired, i coughed up the 20$ / year about 2 hours ago, and pop3 works like a charm
any way to sync the calendar from yahoo like you could in the old version as well? if you pay does it allow you to do this?
i don't know, but i don't think so. they say for 20$ you get POP3, forwarding (goood), 20M per message (instead of 10) and some filters... check the website
Maybe its different in some regions, but in UK, as long as you go into the yahoo mail web interface, click on options and select pop forwarding, you can then use either imap or pop/smpt to access your mail on wm devices.
I use my yahoo mail on my device fine.
i already said that yahoo.co.uk is different
dang, I am more interested in the calendar than the email, cause i can use the web interface if I need the mail but I like yahoo syncing with my calendar
i think you can "export"your calendar to outlook, from the web page, in options. try that
On Cyanogen's ROM, there's 2 email apps. One called eMail and the other is Work Email. I want to sync my school email to the phone. So, I don't want it taking them off the server but just copying them. Anyway let me know which one I should be using, and maybe what's different about them?
I'd usually forward to my Gmail but my school filters out forwarded mail to Gmail.
You should use eMail for the task. Work Mail is to connect to exchange server.
My suggestion is K9 Mail. You can download from Market, and it has much more features than stock eMail app.
There is no free Mail app for Android I tried so far that I could say I like.
GMail app misses some important GMail functions, eMail app never ever shows me notifications even though I enabled them, Work eMail is exchange only with nearly no options and K9 has graphical, usability and speed issues.
Maybe I should try Touchdown Exchange for my University Mail (which uses exchange).
Are there any other Mail apps someone could recommend?
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.
Has anyone tried the new Kaiten Mail app by the Creator of K-9 mail. It is suppose to be for tablets and HD phones. I thought it was in beta, but it is in the Amazon App store for $5.

Looks nice just did not know it was even out yet.
I just bought it and its fantastic. Got my Gmail/yahoo/live accounts set up. Interface is set up nicely as this is aimed for tabs. Plenty of features. By far the best email app I've tried. I've tried just about all of them out there. Well worth the 5 bucks.
Thanks for letting me know. I have always liked K-9 so this is something I was looking forward to.
Wow this has instantly become my favorite email app for the gtab. The layout is excellent and makes effecient use of screen real estate. At the same time it has all the configuration that k-9 has unlike the client from NI. I have not had any DC yet. So far so good.
This might be a dumb question but will this client work for MS Exchange email accounts?
Anyone know how to select a default email account? Its always starts out displaying all the accounts. I want to open it, and it start on gmail. I've looked in in the settings to no avail! Thanks!
Found it! I kept reading over it.
Just got it today, very nice.
Anyone know how to setup more than one Google account? I have one Gmail account then my work email is a Google app account (cloudtrigger.com). When I try to set it up I con only choose from imap, pop3 or exchange...none of them work.

Apparently only Exchange 2003, but I'm still having trouble getting it to authenticate.
Works well on my DroidInc2 (4" screen)

How do I setup a yahoo account?
It works ok with my gmail account and my ISP's IMAP account, but I can see my yahoo email but can't send from it. How do I set up a yahoo mail account?
Thanks!
I hope this is the correct place to ask this. When I set up my AOL email in the now combined Gmail app I can check my mail without any problem but links in the email aren't working. They just show up as text. Any help would be appreciated.
Glad I'm not the only one who can't get it to work.
I think it is a generic problem with how gmail app reads non gmail emails, especially when sent on plain text, I get it when I read the XDA emails, which are sent to my imap account that I read in the gmail app
I forgot about this... I went to K9 mail and it seems to work well. Might be with a look.
True - I try lots of others, but keep going back to K9 - I don't want much in an email package - NON-threading, Alias support - ideally picking the ones up I have set up in gmail and IMAP support - and K9 does it.
