Hello all,
I'm having trouble finding a good e-mail app that does what I want it to do, and I haven't had any luck in searching these forums for a while.
The only thing I'm looking for is an e-mail app that can sort e-mail by Sender. I can make do with anything else, that is my only preference.
My e-mail app on the S3 used to do it. I'm not on the S5, and its app does not. I know the Gmail doesn't since I tried it before on the S3 and it never did so I didn't use it.
I have also tried myMail and Cloud Magic, it doesn't appear that either of them has this functionality.
Can anybody point me towards an e-mail app that I'm looking for?
Thanks!
Have you tried Inbox my GMail? or MailBox by DropBox? If so, try using maildroid and use the search function so that you can easily find the sender by their name or e-mail

I just downloaded and tried them. Both Inbox by Gmail and Mailbox by Dropbox look like basically G-mail only accounts (I'm working with a non-gmail account).
I also came across LightMail and gave that a try, but no go.
I know I can use the search function in any of the apps, but it's not that I'm looking for a particular e-mail or sender, but that I deal with bulk hundreds of e-mails by sender, and prefer to work through a sorted list so I can go from one to the other. Searching requires me knowing everybody who has sent me e-mails, which is the point of why I sort by sender.
Any additional help is appreciated, thanks!
WeMail is by far the best app to do this.

You'd think this would be a built in feature...I have a group of people I need to email on a regular basis, but the only way I can do it in the gmail app is by "Reply All" to a previous email and delete all the old email/subject...
Why in heaven's name can't I easily email multiple people from the app? I can do it online on my laptop...am I missing something here, or is this just a glaring oversight on Google's part?
Really? Nobody knows this?

Oversight.
Best suggestion, as you've already figured out, is save a draft with the contact info.

That seems like a pretty big oversight...what a bunch of goons. Thanks.
These are the same guys that omitted sending to groups in the text messaging program.
not to hijack, but how i can i get images to automatically display on my emails?

Ha, that's a very good point that I had forgotten...
Nothing chaps my ass more than little **** like that that's forgotten/omitted.
A year later, and those fools still haven't updated the app so users can send emails to distribution lists they've setup. Jerks.
A working solution
This method was described somewhere on these forums, and it works. I am just repeating what someone else discovered.
Make a new contact, using a name which is meaningful to you.
For the email address, build a list of the emails for everyone in the group, using this pattern:
[email protected]>,<[email protected]>,<[email protected]>,<[email protected]
NOTE the >,< between each contact, but nothing before the first email in the list, and nothing after the final email in the list.
This works around the missing group function.
Download and use ContactGroupU from the Google Play store.
on your computer go to gmail and add those contacts in some group and call it something for example "912dd" and go on the app and in the "To:" Area start typing the name "912dd" and select it when it shows up
What is everyone using as their email app? The google stock one is garbage. I need similar options as Microsoft Outlook.
Specifically I need a better way to handle junk/trash mail and specify what is junk and what is not junk. Lately my email went nuts and is sending important email to the trash file before I see it. It is picking random mail and sending it to the trash.
Also my email appears to longer work with wifi. That is a must for me at the office.
Mods, I realized I posted this in the wrong forum after hitting the post button. Please move to Q&A.
Enhanced Email is pretty good. I tried Touchdown and Moxier and didn't care for either. K-9 would have fit for me if I hadn't the need of push email from exchange.
K9 has not been updated in a long time and the recent reviews were very poor. I will give Enhanced Email a shot.
If anyone else has any ideas, I am open to anything.
I want to report something that I'm not sure is a bug. I guess I just need some advice
When using the AOSP-based Corporate email app, I'm getting unintentionally highlighted text in my messages
Example:
If I open my email app and search for "hello", I see all emails that contain the word "hello". Also, the text within the email "hello" is highlighted in yellow.
If I reply or forward that message, the highlighted text persists which can be seen by all recipients.
I can duplicate it on my friend's stock Galaxy Nexus and on my Galaxy S3. It happens with all AOSP based email apps (4.0+).
The really strange thing is that I can't find anyone online who is reporting the same thing. Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks
No idea but I find AquaMail to be a awesome email client, maybe switch if it meets your requirements?

It doesn't work for me. I need full Exchange 2010 integration and AquaMail only operates with IMAP / POP enabled. I'm wondering if it is just my Exchange server. I find it hard to believe that no one else has reported this. I'm wondering if maybe this was a "feature" added by Google and I'm just not seeing the value haha
Thanks for your reply
Dear team,
This is regarding the email app in the Xperia Z3 duos phone.
Suppose, i am getting an email from someone with multiple people in "CC" and "To".
If i do a "reply all" or "reply only to the sender", in my reply, all the other addresses other than the sender's name gets cut off from the email to which i am replying.. This behavior seriously deforms the email chain and make us lose track of who all where there in the earlier email. This is especially bad when using for corporate official emails.
If i use my Samsung email app, the addresses will not get cut off. I have attached screen shots of the original email with replies done using Xperia and samsung email app.
Appreciate if you can help resolve this.
Thanks you.

Personally? I uninstalled the built-in email program and installed k-9 through f-droid. I don't use my email heavily but k-9 works well enough for a phone.
In your example, you're using the same email address multiple times. I think when you do the "reply all," the app recognizes it is the same address and removes the duplicates. You would find this same behavior if you were using Outlook, which resolves all the addresses right before dispatch, and only sends the email to the recipient once.
If you have, say, four or five unique email addresses in the CC and select "reply all," does the app still remove some of them? I assume yes and that is what prompted this forum thread, but I'll ask just to be sure.
just disable the sony email app and install Gmail from google play. :highfive:
Hi, unfortunately, my company email does not allow access to K9

Hi, thanks for the suggestion. I tried K9, but unfortunately, my company email is not working with K9, i think they are not allowing access to any 3rd party emails. It is being managed using the Airwatch

Hi, yes.. if i use different email addresses also, it will still remove all of them. And as you can see from the screen shot, when i used the Samsung email client, it did not remove any of the email addresses, even though it was the same. So the problem is with the Sony email client it seems.

Hi, i want to use this client for my official company email and they dont allow Gmail unfortunately... so thats why i am stuck....
Quite a few years ago I used a default emailing app that came with my phone. (Could've been Samsung Galaxy S3 or S4...can't remember). The thing I really enjoyed was the ability to set a time when you wanted an email to be sent.
I haven't found anything like it since so was hoping XDA folks could recommend an email app that allows me to have multiple accounts on the app and whereby I can choose the date and time those emails get sent.
(Currently using TypeApp on my Android phone but that doesn't have the ability to schedule sending).
Thanks for any help/suggestions.

Thanks for the suggestion. I've tried Boomerang before but it doesn't work for personal emails hosted on own domains. Seems that it only works with Gmail and Exchange type set ups.
Also, the fact that it is a separate app from Gmail defeats the purpose of using it with Gmail.
Having one app that I can do all my emails is the preferable route.

I searched for you and found others that also wanted it certain ways but in all cases they never found a solution, all they got was a suggestion to use boomerang.
You can probably try using google assistant or some other assistant type app along with your calender app or even Tasker to get this to work however choose. Other than those options, I don't know what else to say, maybe someone else has other suggestions.

Way back, I tried backing up that Samsung built-in email app and restoring it with Titanium Backup but I don't remember having any luck with going that route.
I use Handcent Next SMS as my go to app for sending texts because it can schedule sending e.g. yearly, monthly etc. Great for when you send someone a birthday text overseas and you're still sleeping. :good:
Now if only these SMS apps can figure out how old the person is from contact information and the message wished them a happy 39th birthday instead of just saying happy birthday.
I'm surprised there aren't a bunch of these scheduled type apps as it's so handy to schedule a message ahead of time e.g. for someone's birthday.

You could always try porting that app to work with what you have now or get someone else to do it.

I don't remember what phone it was on but could try and find out.
How would I go about porting the app to work or is there a forum to ask someone to do it.
If I remember correctly, I was rooted at that time so could hopefully copy the APK but not sure if there were any other linking files to copy with it.
Thanks.

I don't know what you need to port the app, I'm just saying it can be done if you prefer to use that app. Porting that app seems to be the most likely solution to what you're looking for. There doesn't seem to be any other options that will work in the manner you want or with just one app like you want.
