Recent convert from iPhone (used iPhone 4s, iPhone 5 and iPhone 6 (month). I am loving the Note 4. Having used iOS for a long time, I am used to the iPhone email client, where you can have 5-6 accounts (yahoo mail, gmail, outlook) and it lists the account in the left pane and right pane is for reading respective email.
I have tried searching for similar client in Play store (downloaded quite a few and tried) but couldn't fine one that is closer to iOS email client. The stock email client on Note 4 has combined view (hate it) OR I have to select account from the dropdown box and click on inbox to refresh and read the mails.
Any pointers where I can have a clean/easy interface to have 6 accounts set up and read (very similar to iOS 8 email client).
Thanks!!
Gmail update should allow multiple accounts from other providers
The new GMail (5.0) app allows for multiple exchange accounts.
You can either wait for it to be rolled out to you, or download it from here like I did (and have had no problems at all) - http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/11/03/google-officially-introduces-gmail-5-0-can-get-apk-download/
Check Out Profimail Go. Does that in landscape and so much more
I thought that's what the Mail app is for? There should be GMail app and Mail app in the app folder by default, and the Mail app can be used to set up multiple POP and SMTP emails I believe.
Try cloudmagic

I highly recommend trying MailWise. A beautifully looking client that doesn't have any server side shenanigans like CloudMagic.

Blue Mail seems like a good one as well - never tried it myself though.

Do you refer to the "unified inbox" function list all your email in one inbox? Try bluemail. I am using it now to manage 5 email accounts.
THIS. MailWise it is. Very clean interface. Tried 10-12 email clients that have been mentioned in this post and some but MailWise suits my taste. Very clean and probably better than the iOS client.
Thank You!!

Using the stock email app with your note is the best way to go.
It's feature rich with the spen and more.
Why even buy a note if you're not going to take advantage of it.
Bluemail is fantastic. It may even be better than the iOS mail app and I love the way it works on tablets.
One of the reasons I recently went with the 6+ was that I feel the software is superior to Android, but Bluemail has now got me thinking about switching back.
Now if they could just fix the QHD scaling in Chrome...

Hello all: I am a recent switcher from the iPhone 4 to the Galaxy Note. Loving it so far!
I am looking for a decent email app for my GN. I am now using "Enhanced Email" which is OK, but fails to have many of the features I had on my iPhone (searching emails, the ability to switch the sender account, etc).
I briefly tried the stock email app as well, and found it to be "OK" as well, comparable to the Enhanced.
So, I am looking for something much better. What are you using that you can recommend?
Thanks in advance.

This is more of a question than an offering of a theme or an app, so it's been moved to a more appropriate subforum
check out k9-mail
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.fsck.k9&hl=en
True, I have two emails set up with gmail, one as my normal account and one as my POP3 (which I can set as sender address).
Allows me to deal with official school emails without ever needing to actually open my account.
Folks, can anybody with a N4 do an email functionality review on the N4 (and perhaps comparing it to iOS mail client)?
I use a 4S for my corporate (and personal) email, and like most would know, the Mail application on iOS has its own sets of ways to get things done. Some simple things like group select, select all, mail attachments on either new mail or replying are not allowed by the stock application (just allows images which is useless for corporate email). I also use active sync and generally it works very well for push. I also have the need to search my email from old archives (mails which are 2 or 3 years old). I am not happy with the iOS mail client, but it just about does the job.
I haven't tried the Android space and there is no way I can try this without buying a phone. From reading reviews, looks like K9 may be the client which supports my needs (We really need a mutt like MUA for hand helds!)
Would appreciate any pointers around this.
Imagine gmail app .its basically the same. I have NHS e-mail (hospital) that uses secure exchange to use it I would have to encrypt my phone for security reasons. However, the email functionality is the same as in gmail from what I remember
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
The stock one is fine these days - I highly recommend Aquamail though.
There's also Touchdown which is optimised for exchange.. Not used that one (our company moved to google apps).
On my old nexus S I am able to setup up multiple exchange accounts native.
I do an internship in 2 company 2 days in a week and also work in another company 3days in a week and I'm also planning to get office 365 for business for my private company (might sound complicated but it's workable). Doing the maths I need to be able to setup 3 exchange accounts wich works perfectly on my old nexus. (in fact need to set up 4 but I can live without the 4th one).
The important part is mail for 3 of them and callendar for 2 accounts (and if possible see google callendar + exchange callendars in 1 view based on colors) all my contact are on gmail since they overlap and gmail makes it easy.
I was setting up my phone on the htc website "https://start.htcsense.com" but at the end when I reached setting up accounts I'm only able to setup 1 exchange account is this on the device the same or not. Already preordered my htc one so would love to know if I have to cancel my order or not before it arives

It is possible to set up multiple exchange accounts using the HTC email application on the HTC one.
The application in itself is graphically beautiful and a pleasure to use.....however it is functionally lacklustre. Managing folders is a nightmare, the colour of each account cannot be edited etc etc
Do yourself a favour, buy Enhnanced Email from the market and use that.
I also use a pay application for calendar (Business calendar).
Alternatively...wait until an AOSP rom is released...and you will have the same identical software experience you had with the nexus device.
thx for answer if I atleast can set up multiple accounts then thats good
I will look into those aps once I have my one

It is a shame that HTC did not refine their email app. Because it looks fantastic and is really smooth.
BUT
You cannot hide/unhide folders. Visualising emails is a pain as it defaults back to the "all messages" option...and thus if you have multiple accounts....and receive over 100 emails a day...it looks like a mess.
Enhanced email does not look pretty and the Dev has not been too active as of late...but it is functionally faultless in handling multiple accounts and calendars.
Touchdown from nirodesk would be perfect...except...they do not support syncing multiple account simultaneously.
K9 no native exchange support (WebDav does not work on Exchange 2010 servers)
Moxier Email has native exchange support but, imho, is just an inferior version of Enhanced email.
I will certainly look into enhanched email
I liked my old setup with native exchange mail client on my nexus since it looked like the gmail client (with much less features but still worked) and it worked perfectly with google calendar
but I'm willing to give sense a try even if I have to buy some new apps
When emails come to the stock s5 email inbox I can only see partial amounts of the email on the notification card. Also, if more than one email comes I cannot expand any of the cards on the watch I just see who sent an email. There is no way to reply either..I can only open on the phone which makes the watch pointless.
I there a way to see the full text of the email like the Gear 2 running Tizen??
I can only use the S5 stock email because I have work email through airwatch exchange.
Not with the stock email app. Not that I've found anyway

The best solution here is to use Gmail for everything.
1) It now handles Yahoo and Outlook/Hotmail accounts.
2) It is an excellent powerful email client.
3) Android Wear LOVES Gmail. You can view entire mails and respond to them via voice.

Android Wear is about to get a major upgrade which should help with some of these things, but remember, an apps integration with Android Wear is what determines its functionality, not the watch.
Hi all,
I suspect that there are all manner of threads on this very topic given the difficulties that each company (Google and Microsoft) seem to have imposed with regards to syncing between the two, however, I find I get a more directed response if you ask in the specific phone type, so here it goes:
I have a hotmail account. I have had for years and it's my main email account and that which I use for work. Outlook has also a feature that picks up potential scheduled events from your emails and drops them into your calendar for you which I find useful. I also have a gmail account because, well you know, I love Android phones. However, having purchased a Oneplus 3t and coming over from an Xperia Z5 I am having some unexpected difficulty in syncing all my events and calendar schedules into one calendar view. I am using the Google calendar widget and would like a way of syncing my outlook events into this calendar. Is there any way of doing this?
I used aCalendar+ with the Z5 BUT there was the option to add Exchange accounts via the stock email app on that phone which I assume was the catalyst for allowing me to sync everything together in aCalendar+. This isn't an option on the OP3t.
Therefore is there a work around or an app that can do it for me? I am happy to use a decent third party calendar app providing it allows for a decent widget view option but would prefer to use google calendar view instead if possible.
PLEASE HELP. I thought this would be such an easy thing to achieve.
Had the same problem. Tried a few apps and by far the best one was Nine.

Go and get yourself a biscuit and a medal. Thank you so much. Pissing me off that was.
Doesn't Google Calendar allow you to achieve this?

I agree that Nine is by far the best all-in-one email, calendar and contacts app, but it doe not support free Gmail accounts, only paid Google apps for Business accounts.

But what it does do is allow you to add a 'proper' Exchange account to your device which means the Google calendar app can be kept up to date. I then use the Gmail app for my three email accounts thus getting exactly what I need from the app itself. It's almost an app simply for syncing accounts more than anything else.
I have no issues with exchange showing up in Google calendar. Perhaps the truck is to add your exchange account in your Gmail app. You could still use another mail app to use exchange if you prefer (turn off all Gmail notifications for your exchange). I have gotten accustomed to using Gmail app for all my email accounts. I am on office 365. I know some older exchange servers don't get along with Google, my wife is on a 2003 exchange (for some reason beyond me). Nine is the only email app that works for her. Gmail will start out working but eventually stops syncing.
