Is there any app which can store all the emails of my gmail account in my phone? Means I dont want to go online everytime I want to check my "old" emails! The default gmail app only shows the recent emails for offline viewing.. On Symbian(on my previous Nokia 5800), I could retrieve all the emails for offline viewing.. I think iOS's email app also stores all the emails to its memory!

What is the best email app out there. I currently use the stock email app and have tried k9mail but I don't like the way either of these deal with folders. I would like to find an email client that can actually work with folders. Any suggestions?

I personally like the pure series thats available in the market it allows you to combine your sms,email and gmail all on one widget with options for skins and such. Also allows for manual and automatic refresh I like it alot been using it for several months. good dev support etc.

Gmail is the best by far
What I was looking for was an email program that had better nested folder access more like you have on the iPhone. I gave up my iPhone for the Hero but their email program had much better folder control.
I use Gmail. Once you understand how to use labels to mark your mail folders are no longer relevant.

Gmail won't do exchange though, will it? I have the stock mail app set to 'as items arrive', and I seem to remember the gmail app won't do that (admittedly I haven't played with that app in awhile).
Googles Labels are very similar to Folders, once you understand them. Take a look at this:
http://lifehacker.com/5513040/gmail-adds-nested-labels-sneak-peek-to-labs
Also, with Gmail on my Hero, if I have Gmail open on the browser on my laptop, I can actually see the emails come in faster on the phone, and then within 30 seconds on the laptop.
I would say, give it a try, set up an account and see what happens.

I have used Touchdown for Exchange and it does support Push email if your exchange server does. It isn't too bad, and there is a trial in the market.

Well my goal would be to be able to use one app for gmail and exchange. Right now I'm using k9 for gmail (I hate the gmail app and don't really like the stock mail app either) and stock for exchange.
I'm looking for a good email widget for CM7 RC2. I just synced my work exchange account with my phone and tried K9 but it was giving me an IO Error (no idea what that mean). I've tried looking for any type of widget, but not really finding anything good. You guys have any suggestions?
Have you tried K9 mail?

Hi all.
I've recently bought my very first smartphone which is running Android 2.1. I'm absolutely loving it so far but I have a couple of questions regarding security.
Soon after setting up Android I configured the Google Mail app to sync with my Google Mail account, which is my primary email address.
I've noticed that whenever I open the Google Mail app it displays thousands of my emails, some of which contain very personal and sensitive information. My concern is that if somebody was to steal my phone and get passed the pretty basic key lock, they will have access to all of my emails over the past few years!
I've been told that it's not possible to password protect it or log out of the account; is that true?
I've tried to remove my Google Mail account from the app but it gives me the message:
This account is required by some applications. You can only remove it by resetting the phone to factory defaults (which deletes all your personal data). You do that in the Settings application, under Privacy.

Surely I don't have to do a factory reset just to remove my Google Mail account?
Any help would be appreciated.

I've done that already but as soon as I reopen the Google Mail app all of my messages reappear.
I've now archived all of my emails in Gmail and removed them from my inbox so they have now stopped showing in the Google Mail app but any new messages will appear.
I just don't understand why it's not possible to remove my account from the application.

I only want to remove it from the Google Mail application on Android so that if my phone was stolen or got into the wrong hands they don't have access to thousands of personal and sensitive emails.
Which app do you advise ? The Samsung integrated in the Social Hub or the official one from the market ?
I come from a TP where I really liked HTC's integration of facebook in Sense. Not too invasive and living quite well with my exchange account
Right now my contacts in my outlook (2011) on my PC are linked with their facebook profile, and so are they in Sense. With my Tab I worry a little bit about putting a mess in a system that has found its balance
Any risk to duplicate contacts if I use the Samsubg app ? Or the Android app ? Will they merge properly with my exchnage contacts ? Stay aside ?
I just dont wnat to make the step to find out after I messed up my contact list (More than 1200 people so clenaing that up would take me a few days....)
Hi I use Facebook from the market and also use one called boo

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
The built-in one is pretty much for synching only, any actual facebook viewing would need to be done via the browser.
I switched from the built-in SNS client to the official Facebook client and didn't experience any problems.

I haven't installed anything yet Not tryig to fix anything just trying to be sure what I'll do wont create troubles to my contact list
The built-in app is just meant to sync your existing contacts on the phone and match them with facebook friends ? Or it adds all the facebook friends ?
The official app doesnt do this ?
Don't get the account permissions confused if you install the market app. Its annoying to find you gave the stock app permissions that arent on the market app.

Both versions sync contact pictures etc. The official app gives you the option to sync pictures+status updates with all friends, just those with existing contact entries, or none at all.

Anyone ? Maybe I am making too much fuss about this but I dont wnat to mes up my exchange contact list...
Not 100% sure about this, but I don't think it will mess up any of your existing contacts.
When logging in using the official Facebook app, it will create a sort of 'profile' for all existing contacts -- it won't merge info with the actual contact. You'll see this when you edit a contact, there will be 2 (or more) tabs when editing the contact.
It's like a 'Metacontact' in Trillian wherein it's only a merged 'View' of a contact, but in reality the data is in separate 'profiles'. The Facebook tab is uneditable and will only display info.
The only problem I have so far is that when creating a new SMS, it will display -ALL- contact numbers and e-mail address of contacts, even if the number is exactly the same:
i.e. I have a contact named Bob Smith in my Google, Exchange and Facebook accounts, and they are merged as one account. In the Dialer, all the info is merged into one contact when displaying, but when editing, they are editable in 3 separate tabs.
However when I create an SMS and scroll to find Bob Smith, it displays all contact infos of Bob Smith, even duplicate ones, like if I have his number +123456789 on Google and Exchange and Facebook, it displays 3 same numbers when selecting a recipient.
Edit:
Also, when you sign out or remove the Facebook app, it will delete the Facebook 'profile' of the contact on your contacts list, maintaining the state of the previous contact before you logged in / installed Facebook.
Thanks a lot, that's good to know
I already saw the mess it was having google contacts and exchnage contacts (I usually maintain both... for 1200 contacts!) The worst is for contacts for which I entered only the first name... they happen to be all merged together (Well done samsung... They could have defined a merge key a bit larger than just the name........)
What about when you use the Samsung app ?? Someone knows ?
I know a work around is to set the same gmail account in your email app. But imo that's kind of duplicate and potentially could cause conflict or redundant data in your contact/calendar/email.
So, by any chance, is there a way we can simply make the email app to also show that gmail account without adding that account again in email app? Since when we activate the phone, this account is already there registered on our phones... gmail app can capture it, why not email app? just some thoughts...
Why would you want to do this? I just use the gmail app

I agree, you would lose all the functionality of Gmail if you did this...
The gmail app gives you push notifications. If you use the email app it will effect your battery life depending on how often you set it to poll.
Does anybody know how to adjust the following.
When i open Gmail i see it only loaded about 6 emails and then it will load more.
After a while or after a reboot i see its again only about 6 and when i open it it loads the rest. (i can also see this in the gmail widget.)
Is there a way to set a default so i will always sync like the latest 50 emails?
I would like this because when i dont have a wifi connection around and i want to check one of the emails i seen before, i cant because it didnt load that much.
hope you understand what i mean.
I think it syncs a specific time frame. If you want to view them off-line you can add gmail to the stock email app (either as Exchange or as imap).

Whats the difference between using gmail app or the email app?
accept for it storing the emails on the device?
any functions that differ or sync posibilities etc?
i like the gmail app, just want it to store more emails for offline use
Gmail app only works with gmail and is actively developed by google. The mail app is a android stock email app customised by the manufactures. Beside the offline storage you can use them the same way but you could also pull the mail instead of pushing.
