I have superlite 5.1 on my 727R and I have 2 accounts in the email app.
The problem is that on the bottom, there is no search option... which is a big problem for me. I've attached a screenshot to demo what I mean.
Anyone know of a fix for this? Is this in all ICS roms?
that's aosp email client. if u need exchange support as well ur out of luck. Its one or the other
What is exchange support? I just want to search my emails for a specific word.
Thanks. I'm a noob at this

if u don't know/don't need exchange support, download an app called k9mail from the market (Google play). It gives u essay more flexibility than stock email client, and it has a unified inbox as well as a search feature
If you click at the top and change from Combined View to say one of your accounts, does the search button come up at the bottom then?
Because Im using this AOSP email client and I have no issues but then again I dont have a combined view, I only have one accounts on it (my corporate exchange server).

Search it from individual inbox
you can't search it from combined mailbox view. click the individual mailbox and the search icon will appear

I see there are apps like K9 but ideally I'd not want to have to re-setup my accounts, but I don't see a way to see all 4 gmail accounts in one box. If I set them up in the Mail app the delivery is delayed but the gmail app is near instant but it drives me nuts not being able to see all email in one box.
Thanks!
In K-9 setting, make your default view as unified folder.
THis way it will show you all emails from all account.

Oh I said aside from K9 so I don't have to type all my accounts hee hee
Ideally want to keep the stock gmail but guessing that isn't possible eh?
You could foward your accounts to just one.

Not the ideal solution, especially for replies.
Any update to this one? I'd prefer 1 email box instead of 4.

That's not one inbox it then separates them into 4. I want a single unified inbox.

No good for me :-(
I'm using the stock ROM and email app and it gives a choice of seeing email from all accounts on one screen. On the side it has a colored bar that shows what account the email is from. Not sure if that's what you mean.

Yeah that's the built in mail app, designed for non-gmail. To use gmails' true push functionality, one has to use the gmail client. Unlike Mail app, it allows you to add as many as you want but you have to view each separately. :-(
Guess what. If you set up your gmail as an exchange account you can get true push. Just use set up manually and use m.google.com as the server.

You're going to have to give me more detail than that
It wants the email, which I have my own domain I use through Google Apps, which for all intensive purposes is the same as google, it's just @mydomain instead of gmail.com, but all the servers are the same...
The issue is it wants a server, which the m.google.com doesn't fly with setting it up, then it wants a domain, and if I enter gmail.com or my domain it doesn't work.
I just set mine up as a test. Check requires encryption. Server is m.Google.com I left domain blank. Worked fine.

OMG You're a GENIUS (Again!). I was trying m.gmail.com and that's why it wasn't working. I changed to m.google.com and it works great as an exchange server. Thank you so much!
Seems a lot better than having to look at one box at a time in the Gmail app

I was browsing the "post your homescreen " thread and came.across alot of people using the gmail app as apposed to the email app. I personally use the email one because of the ability to add my schools email account in it. Which one do you guys use and why?

I have both. But I rarely use gmail.
I use both too. I use gmail for well my gmail accounts and the reg email app for my none gmail accounts. I like both
Yeah I think I'm going to use both aswell. I have 2 gmail accounts and then my school email
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I use both because it is easy to keep my personal email from work email. Just an added barrier of sending an email from the wrong account.
I use K-9 for personal mail, Roadsync for work mail, Gmail for google account type stuff.
All email accounts auto-forward back to gmail to keep a copy of everything in archive.
I have all my mailaccounts aggregated on my own server and use K9 to access them. For me K9 is the best mail client on android, not only because it can sign and encryped my mails.

Nothing fancy, just a virtual root-server with an imap-server, a smtp-server, spam-detection and a script to fetch from all my freemail-accounts.

Don't think so, gmail doesn't seem to be very integrated into htc sense.
You can forgo the gmail app and add your gmail account as exchange account to the default email app.

I have my other devices set up this way, but never thought to try it with Android because...well it's google. Do you prefer it that way? I've had Android since the G1 was released and never tried anything but the Gmail app

I don't know if it's better or whatever, but I am using clean rom Dev edition and the AOSP email app so I can pinch to zoom I've read arguments that polling email this way uses less battery, but who knows. The only reason I remember the trick is because it was the only way to get push email from Gmail on my iPhone
I would also love gmail to be recognized as an email app.

I'm just curious what everyone uses most for day to day? Your email accounts that come included with your home internet or online services like Gmail and Hotmail?
I have 2 email accounts on my ISP that I use for most stuff. My Gmail account tied to my phone I only use for Google Play and nothing else. The reason I prefer using my ISP email is because it's less popular and less prone to datamining by big online entities like Google or MS and they're just as disposable. I guess I feel a little better deep inside letting Rogers spy on my activities than an international giant online entity.
For example, I'll use my ISP email accounts to sign up for PayPal, dropbox, eBay etc rather than Gmail.
Just curious what others prefer
Neither. I bought my own domain and use e-mail on that for everything personal - gives me as many different addresses as I want for self, webmaster etc.
Of course, there are many times when I also create a spam-drop address for web-site sign-ups.
Gmail. I have my own domains as well, and use them on Google Apps.
It's convenient. I've been using my gmail since near the start of gmail and there's no reason to really change it.

How does the search function work on that? I think Gmail has surpased hotmail as it is really easy to use and groups emails together. I never thought I would switch to gmail but it seems superior at the moment.

Outlook.com is more in line with what Gmail has to offer. MS is finally rebranding and doing away with Hotmail. I like how you can create a throwaway email addy in an instant.
Recently setup an outlook.com address and thinking if migrating to that from gmail. A few articles I have read indicate that MS will be taking users privacy a little more seriously than google does.

Hello there!
I've noticed, that sent e-mail are not saved/moved (don't know which mechanism should be) into "Sent" folder. Well... they are, but they're just available from phone - there's no sign of e-mails on webmail or directly on desktop e-mail application (like Thunderbird or eM Client). Does any one experience similar issues?
my email app working good , sending and incoming mails all are good
Is your email account setup as IMAP?
Besides, I remember there's an auto BCC in the Settings menu that you can set to always auto BCC yourself...

I don't have this exact issue, but I noticed that any email more than a week old seems to be removed from the app and has to be searched for manually, especially the starred emails. I'm using a Yahoo account for mine though.

I'm not the OP, but the stock mail app is just a portal to these various email servers. For some reason though, the stock app doesn't continue to store messages older than about a week and you have to search the email server to retrieve them. It's annoying, but it works.
I tried using the Gmail app, but it lacked some of the features I use in the stock app. I also tried inbox and Yahoo's own app but neither of them would connect to my work email account.
So just like the OP, I'm having some issues with the stock app but it works better for my needs than the others. If you're also using the stock app, please chime in with your experience.
