This is my first time using Google Now Cards and I was pleasantly surprised it displayed information relevant to my schedule.
I thought Google Now only reads reservation, appointment, content, etc from GMail accounts. I was surprised that I got a Google Now Card for a reservation that I received in my Yahoo mail account. Is it because I have Yahoo mail set up in the default mail app? Does this work with K-9 mail app?

I have 3 email accounts. Hotmail, Yahoo and Gmail. With my Hotmail account, I'll go in and read my email. Then when I get a new email, all the email I read weeks ago is now showing as unread. So instead of the email app showing I only have 1 new email, which is true, it shows I have over 10 new emails.... which in fact are just really old emails.
This only does it with my Hotmail account. I have it set to delete my email online when I delete it from my device. Not sure if that matters.
Does anyone know how to correct this?

Autosync? As in settings->account and sync? Hotmail isnt an option.

Happened the exact same to me.
I only managed to fix yahoo and hotmail
Hotmail: download the microsoft+SEVEN hotmail that one push syncs mail better than any other mail client for hotmail ive had and fixed my issue.

Yahoo: the yahoo mail client fixed all my problems for me.

As of gmail i still get some read mail as unread... only i could do to make it better was reduce the days it synced so less unread mail appears.
Hope it helps man.
(IF you only have trouble with Hotmail, ignore the Gmail and Yahoo part)
Hello,
I am 50 years old and have just got my first tablet so apologize if this is an obvious question/answer.
I am having a little difficulty with my email account.
I went to the email app and set up my Yahoo account. All the usual folders seem to be there eg: inbox, trash, sent etc & any folders I have set up but I can't find my contacts list - if I try to send an email I have to enter the address manually - it doesn't bring it up automatically after typing a couple of letters. This is very difficult as I don't remember peoples email addresses anyway. The only couple of addresses that do come up are friends on Skype, I don't have a Facebook account and don't have any intention of getting one either.
Any help would be gratefully appreciated.
You may better off creating a Gmail account and using the app from the Google play store.
You can signup here: https://accounts.google.com/SignUp?...s://mail.google.com/mail/<mpl=default&hl=en
You can download the Gmail app from here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...1bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5nb29nbGUuYW5kcm9pZC5nbSJd
The contacts from this account will show up on the app.
Also, Gmail is provided by Google free of charge. It works faster than Yahoo and is also safer. Android is heavily integrated with android because Google owns Android.
I hope this helps.
I'm a newbie with smart phones. I'm coming from a dumb phone and just ordered a Nexus 5. Looking at Nexus 5 specs and stock apps, I don't understand why the Nexus 5 has an Email app and a Gmail app. Isn't Gmail, e-mail? Why does Google separate e-mails? I have Gmail accounts, AOL e-mail accounts and Time Warner (Road Runner) e-mail accounts. Can I send and receive all my accounts in my Gmail app? Can I send and receive all my accounts in my Email app? Isn't all e-mail, e-mail? I don't understand the separation. Is Google making e-mailing, unnecessarily complicated? Are some e-mail accounts blocked out from one app or the other?
The gmail app is only for GMail, and is highly optimised for GMail. For example, it has the tabbed inbox (General, Social, Promotions, Updates, and Forums).
The email app is for any e-mail (POP or IMAP). Of course you can use the email app for GMail through the IMAP feature in GMail, but you won't get the optimised experience.

Use Email app to add all your email accounts.
But, if I were you I would start phasing out the AOL and RR email acounts and only use Gmail, this use only Gmail app.
I did this a few years ago and set an auto-forward on all my RR email. Whenever I would get an email sent to RR, I would update my profile's email on that account/service/website's. I now have one email and have the additional features that someone already mentioned above.
Rather than using the yahoo mail app i simply use gmail to access my yahoo account, but for the last few weeks it hasn't been syncing.
I delete the account and re add it and it works for a day but then it stops syncing, i delete the account again and add it and it works for another day but then it stops. Any idea what the issue could be? Is yahoo neutering anyone that isn't using their app to check mail?
All the time. It's been like this for months.

Surely yahoo has been scrambling to fix this issue... no?
Experience this since the July 16 update. Before this, gmail doesn't support 2-step verification for Yahoo and you need to generate a password from Yahoo's setting. Now it supports 2-step verification, but the issue persists just like what @peachpuff mentioned
Yahoo Email is a good mail client but it is not properly working for a few years. if you want to switch yahoo mail then you can go Gmail Email client.

Tl;dr: Why wouldn't a "clone" of K-9 Mail connect to gmail?
Hello friends.
I know this is a long shot, but here goes:
If I make a clone of K-9 Mail (not for any nefarious purpose or anything like that, I simply need to change the app name so that the play store won't offer me updates) using App Cloner, the clone wont connect to gmail server to check my mail. Instead, it gives an SSL error.
It works perfectly on hotmail, yahoo, and my school's mail, but not on gmail.
The original checks my gmail with no problems, and the settings are the same.
Can anyone shed some light on the matter?
Best regards!
