I need to be able to copy hyperlinked text into an email. For example, I want the word forum to link to http://www.xda-developers.com/ without having to type the whole address.
I have a Nexus 5 running 4.4.2. I can copy hyperlinked text into a NEW gmail email, and it shows up to the receiver as hyperlinked text. In other words, the receiver could click on "Forum" and it would take them to your home page. However, I need to be able to do this with my work exchange account.
I have tried MailDroid, aquamail, mail.ru, cloudmagic, k-9, enhanced email, and others that will run exchange. With some of these you can just forward the text, but I need to be able to copy and paste the hyperlinks because each message I send needs changed made. I do know what I am trying to do worked on a Samsung Galaxy s3 running (not sure if it was jellybean or ICS) Tried finding that app. Copied it to the system app folder using FX app (with root access), but it won't work--the email keeps stopping.
It is a work account so I cannot forward it to gmail.
Any suggestions would be welcomed.
Thank you,

I was just playing around with ES File Explorer, trying to learn what it does, and I discovered that all the email attachments that I've opened during the past few days (.doc,.pdf,.pps) were actually saved to my G tab.
I'd rather than didn't happen.....is that a feature that I can turn off somewhere?
(I couldn't find anything under the different menus for mail or browser.)
You could try a third part e-mail client, such as Enhanced Email which seems to have a good rating in the market.
I use the Yahoo Mail app.
Does anyone know if I can view attachments to my email, without having to download them to my G tab?
Bumping up?
I just switched from an iPhone 4 to the Inspire and I would like to have everything synced all the time like MobileMe. I did the whole Gmail syncing and the contacts seem to work great and the mail however I can't get the "notes" folder in the mail app to show all the notes. Any help?
First search the marketplace for "google" there are alot of addons.
I know reader is there i use it. And groups, photos etc. can also all be reached by going to www.google.com/ig and logging in. I have found no real limitation with the stock browser and igoogle yet.
Hope that helps.
unless im thinking wrong here, android doesn't really include a notepad app like iOS does. there are a few different cloud solutions, but i believe it will involve you copy and pasting your memos into a new app. i like diigo.com combined with powernote on android.
good luck
Actually I'm referring to the folders in the mail itself. On my computer it shows the notes in the folder but once I view the folder on the phone it only shows one note.
Is there already a good thread somewhere to seek out some help in configuring K9 Email or should I just post here?

Currently configured for POP mail not IMAP (Comcast/Xfinity).
Have it set to sync so that when email is downloaded to my PC and no longer on Comcast's servers that K9 will auto delete/remove those messages from my Inbox.
I just want to know the following:
1) like on my old blackberry can I flag a message as Saved so that unless I manually delete it is saved? If so, how? If not, then can I create a saved or archive folder and manually move them there? If so, how? If not what do you suggest as an alternative?
2) If I accidentally delete a message it immediately moves to trash (and I think immediately sends a delete command to Comcast's servers). How can I undelete a message or manually move it from trash back to inbox?
3) How can I manually create folders and move messages between folders?
4) Please explain the whole folder level thing, i.e. Level 1, Level 2, etc.
THANKS!

I upgraded from a HTC Imagio running Windows Mobile 6.5 to the Samsung Galaxy S3 and it is my first foray into the Android world, so I hope you can help with the following. As you can see, it was a big step up the ladder of mobile operating systems!
1. If I have a name prefix for my contact in the contact list, like Mr./Ms./Mrs./Dr., the name does not autocomplete for that contact from the phone keypad. When I enter the letters of the first or last name on the phone keypad, the contact does not show up. However, if I delete the name prefix and leave it blank, it shows up fine. Is there some setting to have all the contacts show up or is it a bug? Is it happening for others too?
2. On the Windows phone, I had a reminder application which showed a list of all reminders. I could set the reminder to repeat after any number of days/weeks/years. However, in the Android Calendar, when I set an event, I am unable to set the number of days/weeks/months/years it has to repeat. For example, I need an event to repeat every 365 days (calendar with no leap day) but I cannot set it on my phone or in GMail. Also, when the alarm goes off, I would like to be reminded again after a day or a few hours or a few minutes until I dismiss the notification so I can have the remidner go off a few days before the event as a reminder. I don't know if that is possible too. I looked at a couple of apps from the Play Store but could not find one which does everything. Anyone know of a trick to get this to work?
Update: DGT GTD & To-Do List with its recent updates now does what I need. Thanks to the author for adding the features.
3. When I check my gmail in the web browser, I am unable to delete the mails. I touch the trash icon but it stays highlighted but does not delete the mail. Is that a bug or am I again doing something wrong? I have different gmail accounts that I would like to check on the phone without transferring contacts and calendar entries.
Update: Looks like a bug in the stock web browser. GMail works as expected in Chrome browser
4. Is there a clear writeup of how the calendar and contacts sync between gmail and the phone? I had transferred all my contacts from my Windows mobile phone to gmail and they showed up on my S3 when I set up the gmail account. However, they would not transfer to my phone. I had to export the contacts to a file on my phone and then import the contacts into my phone. Maybe I do not need the contacts to reside on the phone? I was worried that if I was in an area with poor or no signal reception, then I may not be able to view the contacts if they were only on my gmail account and not on the phone.
4a. Similarly, I would like to know how the calendar entries from gmail can be pulled on to the phone.
Thanks in advance for your help and patience in reading the above! I have a lot to learn but hope I can get my phone to work the way I would enjoy. If you can suggest any resource for reading other than XDA and Android Central, that would be great too.
Oops. This should have been posted in the Q&A Forum. Mods, can you please move it if that is where it belongs? Thanks!
Searched all over the web and can not find any help on this. Just picked up a Galaxy S7 last week and haven't had any issues with it. My internet at work blocks Gmail, Drive, etc. so I have to access everything on my phone. In some cases if I need a file from my Google Drive I have to use my phone (Gmail app) to send it to my work email, download, edit, email back to Gmail, save to Drive. It is a pain, but the only work around I currently know that still works here.
Anyway, I always password protect the files (word or excel files) so they can not be opened (well opened easily) and viewed. This has never been a problem until now. For some reason, when I email the password protected file back to my Gmail and open up the email on the Gmail app on the S7, it will NOT download or save the attached file. I have tried numerous files and oddly, if the file (docx, xlxs, pdf, zip) is NOT password protected, the Gmail app downloads or saves it to my Drive just fine. However, if the file is password protected, it will not do anything. I tap the screen and all the options and it does nothing.
I do not know if this is some security feature built into the phone, or some app, but it is not helping me. I have tried messing with the Gmail app settings and nothing helped. Cleared cache and data for Gmail app didn't help. Uninstall/reinstall didn't either. Any ideas?
Have you tried other email apps? Do files that you send download normally on PC?

Other email apps work and I can download the files fine on a pc. I looked more into it and apparently it's a Gmail android issue. Others are having similar problems so I guess I'll just have to wait until they roll a new update out.
Today i received my fresh oneplus 6 with android pie rom. Actually i have this issue with gmail. Can't download/view pdf attachments even if i have 2 pdf apps (google pdf viewer and adobe reader). Any idea?
