Stock email app

I just got my phone a couple days ago and love it but couldn't figure out how to change from different email clients when using the stock email app. It allows you to set a default but are you able to go to a different email account besides going to the message app where is takes you to texts, email, fb, etc.
Thanks in advance and sorry if I sound like a noob.

I don't know your answer but if the "other" email account you want to use has an app in the market (most of the big ones do) I would suggest using that instead. Most stock android apps are pretty much just there to get you up and running until you install something better. I only use the default for exchange access for work.

OK that is probably what I will do then. I just would like to have all my emails in one place so it is easier to check.

Oh it's certainly capable. It's just nice getting "native" features like proper labels in gmail and such. If the stock email app isn't to your liking and you want to stay with an "all in one" app then check what the market has to offer.

Use the Messaging App instead of the Email App - Messaging gives you a Universal Inbox, or option to open any individual email account, Text Messaging, or Facebook.
(I haven't found an email app in Market that looks any better or does any better, for me)

Email App - need one like Mac mail or T'bird

I'm tossing up between the Ipad and the Note 10.1 at the moment. As I have not used Android (yes I known I have been on a different planet for a while) can anyone tell me if there is a mail app similar to Thunderbird or Mac Mail (I use both on desktop machines)
I like to access all my accounts when on the road, so currently I have five different email accounts running on Thunderbird when away from home.
This is just one of the questions needing an answer before I make a decision on which tablet I buy.

You have the native email a app and in a few months Google plans to release maybe Sparrow to Android...
Android it's a good deal!

I really like Samsung's native email app, I just wish it had push functionality.

Have a look at K-9 mail. Either in Play store or the latest versions direct from the development page.

Sure I didn't remember of K-9. Thanks for the tip

I use Kaiten for everything outside of exchange.

Another vote for Kaiten. I used K9 for a long time, and Kaiten is a much-needed refresh.

Are any of the email maps you all mentioned---able to use a password for a imap account. I need something password protected for my work email.

Have you tried Aquamail? You can tweak the settings to your heart's content and it has password protection (for the whole app not individual accounts).

I am really liking AuqaMail. Using it on my Note 10.1 and the S3.

Corporate (Exchange) email client alternatives

I think I've had enough with the stock e-mail app for getting my work e-mails. It dims the entire phone every time I open it, it flickers when I scrolls, etc. This is on multiple ROMs with multiple versions of Jelly Bean. I'm convinced the app just plain sucks.
Anyone use any revolutionary third-party apps that they want to share? I checked out TouchDown and Moxier... but $20? No thanks. K-9 seems just OK.
thanks!

We're on Exchange via Office 365 cloud

Touchdown is great, but expensive. Keep an eye out for sales, I got it for $2 about 2 years ago

You can try the AOSP client, I believe beans has it in his roms. You can also use enhanced email but I stopped using it since I got my S3, the app was acting weird...

I'm trying out Aqua Mail right now. It is only SMTP at this point. No direct Exchange connectivity (ActiveSync)... YET. I e-mailed the dev and he is considering getting a license from M$ to add it to his app.
Other than that I love it. It's free but appends a watermark of sorts at the end of email drafts. $5 to unlock pro version.

Well... found my solution. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=33402676&postcount=5
It's an inverted AOSP email flashable zip. It's just plain sexy. It doesn't have any of the issues the default JB e-mail app has.
If you're interested....
-Nandroid
-Delete the SecEmail and SecExchange apk's from /System/App with a root file manager
-Flash the zip in link above
-Go into app manager and force stop/delete data on email AND exchange. I had to do this to get it to work. Not optional.
-Profit.

Um, I can't uninstall this app. The uninstall button is greyed out...
Did I miss something in installing this?

Another vote for Enhanced Email. It handles multiple accounts, including Gmail, well enough that I had it as my main email app for a while.

The problem with using an alternate email client is you lose the new notification features of jelly bean. I was a long time user of Enhanced Email, but given the issues using it in jelly bean, and losing out on some improved notification functions I opted to use the stock app. I do miss the custom led notifications though
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2

I've used them all. Enhanced Email, Touchdown, Mail droid, K-9, Kaiten, etc... All are good but all do not have it "all" for functionality. I did like enhanced email on my phone but hated it on tablet due to not having the preview pane option. Touchdown is super powerful but only allows exchange email. Mail droid has great features but does not yet support calendars. K-9 was great until my company changed to exchange server 2010 which K-9 does not support.
I feel like I am on a lifelong search for a do it all email client.

I forked over $20 and bought Touchdown. Great layout. Love it. Done.

I just wish touchdown did more than 1 account.

Aqua Mail and K-9 are quite good, though i like the Samsung email app too.

I think Aqua Mail is the one to go for. I use it for my gmail and outlook accounts. You can even download Development builds on their forum. It has a pleasant interface and a lot of options.

i just use the gmail app , no complaints here. Guess it all depends on what you want in the app.

I am using cloudmagic for company exchange account. Works great for me.

cheers guys ill go through them and c which is the one for me..

Cloudmagic (free and perfect for exchange accounts, but a little "dangerous" about privacy) or Aquamail (very good but free version is limited to 2 accounts and adds app infos in each outgoing mail sign and paid version is expensive for me, about 4 euros).

AquaMail but has no threaded messaging, some like that feature, I don't.
SolMail is good too.
Mailwise too.

I also like MailWise Beta, I use it for my Exchange server email. I used to use touchdown and Moxer but quickly stopped using those when I stumbled onto MailWise.

Have you ever tried MailWise Beta? It allows you to bypass the exchange security lock if that is something you are interested in or if you company policy enforces that. I think it has a nice interface as well. I guess it all depends on user preference.

I'm still stuck with samsung email for my exchange account n I think it's a pretty decent one.. I've tried Aqua and K9 but didn't really like the user interface of both

Since flashing to 4.4 KK I have went back to the stock Samsung email client. I have turned off the exchange security bypass so the default Samsung app is fine for me now.

I am running an Xposed module that allows me to turn it off. I am also using Wanam Xposed that has the option in it as well.
Edit:
If that doesn't work for you, you could always try MailWise Beta. They have an option to turn that off as well with a code. Download the app, before setting up your account, open the app, hit the menu button, click on exchange bypass and follow the instructions.

What's the name of that xposed module?

K-9 mail here

I use SMail
It supports POP3, IMAP4, SMTP and Exchange ActiveSync. It also supports S/MIME for email signature and encryption.
Perfect for all my personnal accounts + business email.

email notification.

I primary use Google email app for email client on my smartphone and didn't bother with Samsung email app. Gear 2 can't really get detail email when uses Google email app where I can get the actual email (text only) with Samsung email app. Does anyone know? If it can be configured with Google email app. Thanks.

Reqall app will work with gmail. Not free, but not expensive. Only option right now. Give it some time and you might have more options later

Yes it absolutely can, and its ultra easy, just set up a new account and use your credentials. When using the samsung app you can read the full email on the watch.
