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?

Which program do you use for gmail?

Hello there,
i use the program gmail that comes by default, and i think it´s great.
But, one thing i´ve noticed is, this software doens´t work with the multiscreen. Only messaging. But messagin it´s not push email, but only sync from time to time, which it´s diferent from the gmail program.
Which one do you use for gmail? the messaging program, or the gmail app?
many thanks
By messaging app is that the stock samsung email app? If so that's what I use only because I monitor 4 email accounts. If I had only a Gmail account to monitor I'd use the stock Gmail app. I find it much better then all other email apps put out by the companies.
Yes it is.
But if we want to use the multiscreen we have to use the messaging app, which its not push, But the gmail one
Sent from my GT-I8150 using Tapatalk 2
Correct. For push you need stock Gmail app. However I think in jb someone said there are more options for multiscreen. Or on the Note 2 essentially you could do any apps. Hopefully that will make its way to us.

WHOAHHHH!!! Samsung really listens.......i.mean.REALLY.listens........WHOAHHHHHHHHHHHH :good:
The samsung email app does work with push on gmail.
Just configure as "exchange server" and use m.google.com as adress.
Disable calendar syncing at next dialogues (as it would sync your gmail calendar twice)
I will continue to use the gmail app, I'm holding out until the note2 like multiscreen update.... anyway, the email app does have interesting features, like rich text editing and pasting graphics inside a mail

Email app recommendation?

I have both corporate (exchange) and gmail email accounts and I would like to manage both with a single app. I've used CloudMagic Email in the past. Do you have any experience (good or bad) with other email apps?

I'm in the same scenario and I use the Outlook app to manage both email accounts. Syncs my exchange contacts and calendars as well.

I highly recommend the Nine email app...I love it! My favorite part is that you can set exchange security requirements for the phone, or just the app.
ooh, must check out Nine then
you can also try Boxer, i've been using that for the longest time, even when it was still called Enhanced Email
Been using Nine for almost a year; definitly give it a try!

That was my second suggestion
I use Nine for my work email account even though we use Google for Work because they want me to install policies that let them remote wipe, and Nine sandboxes remote wipe to the application.
k-9 mail app is good to you can set various of settings and does not consume much battery
Im using MailWise for Exchange since it bypasses it.
I use Bluemail
I've tried many, but am very happy with Cloudmagic now
Both Outlook and CloudMagic are nice!

Jp Type mail the best!
Nine is amazing
+1 for TypeMail
I wanted to like Outlook but small things let me down.
General app speed just seemed quite slow. Something simple and constant like e-mail needs to be fast!
Strange behaviour when opening images in e-mails. Maybe I'm stupid, but I could not find a way to zoom in on them or make them full screen.
The stock e-mail app is actually quite OK on this Note 5 with my Exchange account. I've disabled it now to try out Nine. Impressed so far with the speed and fluidity of it. If something bothers me I will go back to stock.
Anything besides Mailwise that allows Exchange Bypass?? I have issues giving my company ability to wipe my personal phone...

Hmm maybe its cause I added an account already using the email app? I'll try removing it.
Guys, GMail App is ok for home / occasional use (it's too messy and colorful) but not for a professional use, with several email accounts and few "tons" of administrative messages daily. Conversation view in HTC Mail was a life saver, in Samsung Mail is - until now - the only real downside.
Waiting with great interest for such an improvement!

Stock email app NOT gmail

Anyone know how to get the old stock email app working on pixel? I've installed an old apk but as soon as I try and open it, it says to use Gmail and points me that way. Makes me feel like I'm using an iPhone.

I just got my phone set up yesterday. Are you saying there was a different default e-mail app on this phone at some point? Mine only came with the Gmail app. Seems strange to me to not have Gmail be the stock email app on a Google phone.

Wow. Thats too bad. Guess I'll have to wait for a custom rom to use it again. Its still in Cyanogenmod builds, maybe its in gapps. Anyhow, I really liked keeping it separate from gmail.
Yeah. You may be able to build it from source from CM but sounds like a pain.

Why not just download another email app. Like Outlook, that one works well with all email accounts.
I'd strongly recommend K9 as an email app. Been using that since my G1 and it's still outstanding!
K9 or blue mail works great, I've used k9 for a long time, just switched over to blue, very hard to decide which one is the keeper ?
Sent from my Pixel using XDA-Developers mobile app
These guys are not actually correct.
The "stock" email program STILL EXISTS, and in fact, is actually INSTALLED on Pixel devices from factory!
BUT, google has merged its UI into the GMAIL program.
So you have two options if you want to use the "stock" email program;
1) Set up your IMAP email account through the GMAIL program,
2) DISABLE the gmail program, and guess what happens? The "email" program launcher icon shows up in your launcher!
HOWEVER, it really is a much better idea to use k9mail instead. It is far more feature rich.

Neat, I didn't know that! Still gonna use K9 myself but that's pretty cool!
Aquamail would be my recommendation for a mail app. Easily the best and easiest to use of the six or eight that I tried...

That's a good find but unfortunately doesn't work for me. My mail server wont play nice with the Gmail app so I can't even get it configured. I still tried to disable Gmail but didn't see the stock email app. I then installed a stock email apk and it installed but still gives me the same screen saying that Gmail is the new everything app

Aquamail Pro is nice, arguably better than K9, although it was just acquired by MobiSystems so who knows how future updates are going to look. Large companies acquiring small, indie developer projects does not usually end well for the app.
Security-wise, Aquamail, K9 and Nine are about the only third-party apps I'd consider.
I know this thread is now almost 2 months old.
what I"m looking for is a mail app to keep my gmail separate from my 2 exchange emails - and it MUST integrate with a calendar widget.
I haven't found one that works best. I liked the old "Mail" app - I could left swipe to delete, right to options - all your reply, reply-all, forward options right at the top of each message, rather than the options dots.
Outlook won't get sucked into my Google Calendar.

Aquamail - I tried just about every top email app. Also needed it to support Calendar, works perfect. I use the paid version and can't imagine a more customizable Android email client. Absolutely outstanding. Extremely reliable too.
Use Nine for Exchange. I've been using it for years, best Android email client.

Yeah, definitely for Exchange. I still prefer K9 for IMAP (easy to have lots of aliases) but Nine is definitely where it's at for Exchange. Great integration to Calendar and more!
It seems that only the Lollipop branch of the stock email app 7.0-x is merged into Gmail. Earlier versions of the stock email app, targeted for KitKat like email app 6.3-x, are still working. I am on CM 11 and the fresh installed email app 6.3-1218562 seems functional and wants to be configured with an email account.
However, regarding security concerns it may be still better to use an alternative mail client like K9. I ask me now how that one performs on low-level phones with weak hardware. All these super-rich features of that nice K9 mailing app needs surely hardware power. I noticed a similar behavior also on more recent Gmail versions. These are far more hardware hungry then older ones. That's the reason why I like the stock email app, - it seems lightweight and fast.

Issues with stock e-mail app

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.
