this may be confusing but i will try to type this out the best i can .
info: i have 2 email acouts on my phone lets call them
[email protected] <-set to never check for mail
[email protected]<-set to check every 30 min
reason i have them setup this way is so i can still create and have mail sent from [email protected] and not always have mail sent from me [email protected]
in my [email protected] web client server i forward all email to my [email protected] account
i always have my [email protected] set to send from this account by default
i also have the [email protected] account set as priority
the problem:
i open my gmail app and i have no mail in there
if i open the "email" icon i can see both my email acocunts then i can click on gmail ([email protected]) and i see all my emails , but i dont like the interface of this.
i like to use the gmail icon , how can i get all the email to show up when i click on the gmail icon ?
also , in the notification bar when i get mail i click on it and it opends up the view from the "mail" view , and not the "gmail" view.
as when you open mail and gmail icons they ahve different views , 1 you can deleate them by clicking the box by each email , which is the view i want to use.
arug so hard to try and type out whats happening , hoping somone can follow this mess.
I am confused.. you have setup gmail accounts in email app or gmail? Sounds like you have them setup in email

Just go into your GMail account and create labels and filters and you will be able to tell as they come in.
Yup just create a filter and a corresponding label.
That's how I do it.
will check it out...thanks guys

Are you saying that the Gmail app can be used to access a second email account, in addition to the main Gmail account for syncing? If so, how? Thanks.

You have to forward your second email account to your gmail account.

No, a better solution is to go into your GMail settings and have it fetch your emails from the secondary acct via POP3.
Hello,
I've got a gmail account, that I can use for push email.
In gmail i've set up 3 more pop email addresses to be received in gmail too.
My problem is, when I receive a mail using one the pop addresses and I reply, the from address is my gmail address.
Is there a way to change this to the email address the mail was sent to?
Thx in advance!

So far I've seen it on all roms.
When I push the reply, in the from field there is always "(Outlook E-mail)".
Well if your recieving your emails with gmail, even with other accounts, its still in your gmail inbox. So its gonna reply with gmail.

This is probably an android noob thing, but I cannot seem to understand how to use the "email" app and the "gmail" app.
I want to use the stock/default android email app, you know, the one with the black background? However, I am seriously annoyed by the fact that when I receive a single new email, I get two notifications in the notifications bar; One from the gmail app and one from the stock/default email app.
How do I use this? It's required to set up a gmail account for marketplace to work. But I hate replicate notifications.
Do I just delete one entirely from the app folder?
Whats the best way to work along/around this?
You can turn off the Gmail apps notifications by delving into it's settings.
Go to gmail app, hit menu, go to more, select settings, uncheck Email Notifications. Gmail app will no longer notify you.
but if you just turn off the notification it will still be syncing in the background so if you dont want to use the gmail app go into accounts & sync and under your mail address uncheck sync gmail
the gmail app is used for just that, gmail. the email app is used to connected to exchange servers, pop3 accounts, imap accounts, basically any email that isnt gmail.

you get two notifications because you have set up your gmail account on Email app. Gmail app is way better than Email app (my opinion)
Option1: Delete gmail account from Email app and just use the Gmail app.
Option2: Go to Gmail app settings and disable notifications and use Email app (it will still be synchronizing).
Option3: Uninstall Gmail app and use Email app.

Agreed!
If only I could make my ActiveSync account (work Exchange) to use the Gmail app for mail display instead of Email.apk's viewer.
Personally I think the Gmail app sucks ****. Its so annoying to see the Gmail notification (like push email) and then only go into Mail to actually read it after hitting refresh.
Real cockup in my opinion, but then again I don't hold android in the highest light anyway.
I personally like the gmail app. I never need to press refresh. My push works great. I see the notification or the green trackball (color I set for gmail) then pull down menu and select the notification for Gmail and it loads that message right up.

That's pretty much wrong if I understand you correctly. If I get a notification from the Gmail app of a new mail, I press it and it's right there in my inbox without having to refresh it first.
I also like the Gmail app better than the built-in e-mail app.
The Gmail Push?
I have nexus one, it normally syncs every hour (i set it so)..
Why dont I get the push option? (my operator supports push mail)
If you use Gmail app - the push is automatic and the only way. You don't configure the sync time, because it has no such option.
If you use Email app for Gmail - check if you can set it to Automatic(Push) option (it's the topmost option on the list).
If you set Gmail as Exchange, it can push. If it's set as IMAP then it has to be set to poll.
Ok did that, and and yeh, its push.
Its a lil slow though (it gets a lil delayed).. but Im glad it works..
My email ( default email app, not gmail app ) wont sync automatically, I don't have a task killer, doing some research I am starting to think its because I don't have a universal inbox app.
I am not sure if I deleted it or if my ROM ( Phoenix ) came without it.. Is it why my email app wont sync automatically ? if so, can I get a universal inbox app from someone please
what is your email account which is not sync?

All of them! 3 gmail accounts, and 1 hotmail account.
I don't use gmail app, I just want one program for mail, so I have been using the default app, which I believe is a samsung app. I removed gmail, and I may have removed unified inbox thinking its for facebook and stuff I don't use. I am not sure this is the cause but my accounts using the email app wont sync automatically, I have to manually tell them to refresh.
If its just that missing unified inbox app maybe I can get it off someone, but I don't know.
Can someone shed some light on this?

you can use Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync to get hotmail's email, so it will push the email to your phone.
Well I need 1 client for everything ... something is wrong. The default mail app used to work at some point, I just want to know why its not syncing mail every 15 minutes like its set to.
Is the default mail app ment to work with universal inbox? I thought mail was an android app and universal inbox is a samsung app, so I doubt it, but why wont it sync?

I have a question about the gmail app vs the preinstalled email app.
I know the official gmail app recieves gmail instantly when they come, but can i just unistall the gmail app itself, an use the gmail setting in the standard email app, an still get emails instantly?
The gmail app pushes notifications to your phone. The email app pulls them to your phone.
The benefits of push are 1.faster notifications 2.better battery life because google's servers are doing most of the work.
when i hade my iphone 4 non of the emails were push but i had my gmail setup as a microsoft exchange and changed some setting and i was getting my gmail pushed dont know if this is the same as htc mail app

Yes it is if you download Gmail Unread Count from the Market.
Is there anyway to set this up to where gmail will push emails to the htc app rather than the stock gmail app? Id like to just use the htc email app instead of having my gmail sent to a seperate app.

Thanks! but upon reading the reviews, a lot of complaints about it draining the battery though.

You can add gmail as the mail provider but I don't think it will push though. You can setup when it should sync though.

I have my yahoo an hotmail setup that way, but my other 2 gmail accounts is through the gmail app. It would be nice to be able to remove the gmail app an have it push straight to the htc app though.
I know it is a late reply but i stumble on this one through google search, so maybe others are too.
Solution to get push mail in your htc mail app, is to add gmail account through exchange/active sync. Then you can set it to push as the refresh interval. You don't need the gmail-app anymore.
