Hi there
I upgraded my hotmail account and installed the HTTPMAIL on my imate in order to get my mail from hotmail to my device
When I log on hotmail contacts and appointments and calendar are available.
I wondered
Is there a way to synchronize my appointments and contacts from my imate with my hotmail account?
Hello,
I'd like to know how to forward an email form the outlook sync account using another account.
Thanks.
Hello,
This is my first Android phone after using the iPhone. I added all my Gmail accounts to the email app from Samsung, and I'm still not getting push email. It's set at IMAP and everything. Do I need to set it up as an exchange account?
Thanks.
you need to use the gmail app for gmail to push as far as i know If you only use Gmail, you can remove the email app from that bottom dock by going to the applications screen and hitting menu there is a setting to arrange via grid and then rearrange apps and you can drag the gmail app down there and remove the email app

Thanks for the quick reply. That slightly is disappointing since the Samsung email app has an universal inbox where as the Gmail email app doesn't. Is there an app that would help with this issue if I were to root the phone?
I apologize in advanced if I sound stupid or don't make any sense. I'm still checking up with all the Android lingo
How would I go about adding a non gmail and a non exchange account? Would the Gmail app support that? Or would I have to use the Samsung email app for that?
Thanks.

The Gmail app only supports gmail accounts I believe. You either have to use the Samsung email app or forward your emails from your other accounts to gmail.
Another suggestion is to use K-9 Mail. I have my Gmail, AOL, and Hotmail accounts added to the K-9 Mail and Gmail and AOL both give me push emails and I have Hotmail set up for polling every hour.
K-9 seems to be the best alternative because I didn't want to forward all my emails to Gmail and the Samsung email app wasn't pushing my emails like I wanted.
If the samsung email app supports exchange active sync, you can use it to get gmail and it'll push. Gmail now fully supports active sync. I had my iphone set up that way and I got push emails from Gmail no problem.
The Google Gmail website shows you how to set up Gmail as if it were an exchange active sync account. Its really simple and worked great for me for over a year. I have the Captivate now and only use the Gmail app, but I only have one Gmail account, not multiple ones like the OP.

That's exactly what I'm looking. That works out perfect. Thanks again! And if I ever want to sync my contacts and calendar with Gmail, I can always turn off sync for mail but keep sync active for contacts and calendar.
Thanks again.
Hey,
I'm new to Android and I want to use my Microsoft Account (Outlook.com) where I have my emails and contacts. I installed at first the Outlook app and the emails and calendar where synced perfectly. But my contacts are empty. I also add a MS Exchange ActiveSync Account but it doesn't help. I also checked if the outlook app has the permission for contact and it does.
Any idea or help how I can sync my outlook contacts with my Samsung S8?
cheers
Anyone else having issues with the Outlook email app on the watch? I have the Outlook email app on my S21 but the app on the watch can't seem to link. Is it perhaps because I have my Outlook app on my phone synced to both a Gmail and Outlook account?
