[Q] default Email App witgh imap no attachment - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey,
I have a problem wit my nexus 5 an default andorid email app.
I'm using imap for receiving emails.
When ever I get an email wit an attachment, there is no paper clip and no way to see / open the attachment.
If I check these mails via webmail or PC my attachment are there.
But, if I do send me an email via gmail or default email app, on my phone, with a attached picture, I can see that picture in default andorid email app.
If I use k9 for receiving Emails I get all my attachments..
Anyone else with this problem?
Thx

Hello!
I have the same problem.
Anybody found a solution for this?
Except, of course, the one using K9 or else.
Thank you

HTML email

Hello,
Is there a way to view HTML emails in the stock email app? I'm hoping that there is some simple setting that I am missing.

if I send a mail with the iPhone comes a tone. Is that possible with an android?

Hi, if I send a mail with the iPhone comes a tone. Is that possible with an android?
Holy crap that font is GIANT. Was that necessary or just an iphone thing? Anyway, what? If you send an email on your iphone it makes noise? What?
it comes a sound!
When you send an email on the iPhone, and the send is complete/successful, you get a "whoosh" sound.
No it's not possible on the Android.
Why ist that not possible?

I find this kind of silly since I know I am sending an e-mail, why do I need a sound to tell me something I already know

It's not silly. The Mail.app on the Mac does the same thing.
What the sound does is tell you that the email has successfully left your outbox. Kind of handy to have an audible confirmation of that if you've switched out of the mail app and are doing something else.
Many times on my Androids I've had emails stuck in the outbox with no knowledge of it until I wondered why no reply and had to go to the outbox within the app.
I don't miss it on my droids, but I didn't mind it on my iPhones.
Some may not like the feature, some may love it, but I wouldn't call it silly.

yes, but it is not really necessary
if you are using PUSH email as most of us should probably be doing (i know i am) then as soon as you sent the email
you just need to check on your AllMail folder
if it's there, then it sent out properly
if it's not there, then it did not go out
yahoo mail, works very similar too, using the yahoo mail app
even apps like K9 have access to sync via SMTP
the only problematic email are people stuck on Hotmail and Exchange Servers, those are well... kind of on their own, until a better email app comes around to support microsoft stuff

Is the stock gmail app a push email client? o.o

I get the stuck outgoing emails and the ONLY email app I use is the stock version of gmail.apk, which only talks to google.
Background syncing on, data connection always enabled, etc.
I'm not arguing it's necessary, but like everything else, it would be a nice "option" to have.
Sometimes the only way to clear it is to go to settings and clear data.
I've had the same issue of emails getting stuck in both the gmail client and the email client.
It's irrelevant of the type of email account, as the emails appear to get stuck when there is a lapse of connectivity.

delete multiple emails

Anyone know how to do this in the default email. My vibrant had a way, but I can't seem to find one here. Thanks!
When you open your email you don't have check boxes next to each email?

no,
subject, star (flag),
sender, time/date
Go here for an example fast forward to 3:58 min http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o35QtzbRyUg
I've been reading that there's no way. I went to the amazon app store and bought enhanced email. It's working great!
Turn on batch mode if there is an option. I only use Gmail, so I can't speak for the Email app.

[Q] How do I open a vcard/vcf attached to a text message / sms

I am using a G2x with Tsugi and stock SMS application.
My coworkers will send each vcard/vcf attached to a SMS from their iPhones. I cannot get Android to open the attachment and add to contacts. It works easily if I received an email with attached vcard, but not SMS.
Any advice?
Would chompSMS/handcent/etc help?

I would try the third party apps (chomp, handcent, etc...). A vcard file is a contact right? I'm not sure why it would open in an email, but not in an sms...
Also, you may have to import it from the contacts app rather than just opening it direct. Theoretically it should automatically know what to do, but you never know.

Any resolution to this? I have the same issue.

Hangouts SMS on desktop?

So I'm sure this is a stupid question, but I'm asking anyway.
Now that Hangouts is the default app on our phones for SMS and MMS, I'm wondering about future potential for it. Specifically, I'd love to be able to use the hangouts app/extension on my desktop to send SMS messages from my phone. It's annoying to have to grab my phone to respond when I'm already at a PC. I'm working around that currently by using Mightytext, but it's annoying and buggy. If Hangouts is going to be the solution for messaging, I'd like to see that feature set integrated. Anyone know if this is possible or planned?
Additionally, is it possible (or planned) to have hangouts archive messages the same way it archives chats? This seems like the most useful purpose/benefit when it comes to using hangouts for text messaging.
Any thoughts or feedback?
I was chatting with a guy last night in the chat window in Gmail and it was syncing to hangouts on my phone?

Yes, chats on google sync to your phone perfectly. I was thinking about SMS messages syncing to my computer the other direction. If you've ever used mightytext, you know what I'm talking about. It seems to me like it should be integrated into hangouts on the PC/gmail/google+
