Hi I have a friend that has converted from an iPhone to a S8
they are liking the new experience that Android is giving, but one thing they are missing the functionality of the iOS mail APP,
where you can have multiple email accounts (Exchange,Gapps,Gmail) and you could send an email from any one of the accounts and all the associated contacts where in 1 global address book.
ie. so they could send an email from the Exchange account and when typing the email address they were able to select a email contact from the Gapps email account,
i know the stock Samsung Email app has this functionality but it dosent list all emails for an exchange account, which is an issue.
is there an email app on the playstore that has this functionality?
thanks

Hey guys, in the default Android e-mail application (between phone and browser on the home screen), I have two accounts listed: one for my Yahoo mail and the the other through my FSU school email account (non-outlook). When I receive a new Yahoo mail, I'll see an entry for it on the notification bar and I'll go and check it out. Not so with my school email account. I simply don't get notifications when I receive a new email into that account. Is there a way to change is?
I don't care about syncing things with gmail or any of that stuff. I just want to receive a notification that I have new FSU mail like I do when I have a new Yahoo mail. Thanks!

Is the account set up to check regularly or manually? POP or IMAP?
I have an issue with the email application I'm hoping I can find a solution to with the great knowledge of XDA
I have multiple email accounts like I'm surevmany of you
One for work
One gmail
One yahoo
One for stuff that I think will spam me
One for stuff like forums and personal stuff like banking
The issue is if I use an app such as evernote and want to email it. Android uses the default email account and I can't change that unleashing changebthe default account in the email settings
I don't want a default account but android makes one regardless of if you choose it or don't choose it
May be a problem with Evernote not the email app. Whenever I want to email something form my phone it asks me if i wana use gmail or the email client. In either case I can select which address I wana send from.
I don't get that option grrrrrr
For instance I know its not evernote because if I Jolene my gallery choose to share a picture I get to s of options Bluetooth,email,Facebook,twitter,messaging and so on but if I choose email it automatically opens gmail.
What do you have that I dont?
Bump for a possible response
Why when composing an email from an app am I not allowed to choose my email address?
ill bump this for a hopeful response and add a second question
why am i not able to email the HD files i record with the email app?
Does anyone know of an email app where you can setup multiple accounts and 'Respond' to an email with whichever account you like regardless of which Inbox the email is is.
When I was using the native 'Sense' email, it was great. I could open the email in one account and simply respond using from whichever account I wanted (drop down 'from' list) whereas now that I'm on AOSP (CM10.1) I don't have that option any longer.
It also needs to have Exchange ActiceSync functionality which is limiting my options.
Yep - K9
Choose answer and tap your email account on top. You'll be prompted for 'send as'.
I can't say anything about Exchange active sync so.
yeah thanks, I tried K9 already but it doesn't have EAS. I don't really want to use POP for hotmail.
I'm a newbie with smart phones. I'm coming from a dumb phone and just ordered a Nexus 5. Looking at Nexus 5 specs and stock apps, I don't understand why the Nexus 5 has an Email app and a Gmail app. Isn't Gmail, e-mail? Why does Google separate e-mails? I have Gmail accounts, AOL e-mail accounts and Time Warner (Road Runner) e-mail accounts. Can I send and receive all my accounts in my Gmail app? Can I send and receive all my accounts in my Email app? Isn't all e-mail, e-mail? I don't understand the separation. Is Google making e-mailing, unnecessarily complicated? Are some e-mail accounts blocked out from one app or the other?
The gmail app is only for GMail, and is highly optimised for GMail. For example, it has the tabbed inbox (General, Social, Promotions, Updates, and Forums).
The email app is for any e-mail (POP or IMAP). Of course you can use the email app for GMail through the IMAP feature in GMail, but you won't get the optimised experience.

Use Email app to add all your email accounts.
But, if I were you I would start phasing out the AOL and RR email acounts and only use Gmail, this use only Gmail app.
I did this a few years ago and set an auto-forward on all my RR email. Whenever I would get an email sent to RR, I would update my profile's email on that account/service/website's. I now have one email and have the additional features that someone already mentioned above.
I use the default GMAIL app for my email. I have three email accounts, all linked to each other. When I receive an email sent to my personal account "PERSONAL", I want to reply from a secondary account "SECONDARY" or from my business account "BUSINESS". When I open the email and select reply, the FROM gmail account is fixed. There is no drop down shown so I can change the FROM address.
Question: How can I reply to the email with one of my other email linked accounts?
Thank you for your time

Default GMAIL app? Is that the one from the ROM, or the google GMail app from playstore?
This one works just like it should: GMail
btw: This doesn't seem like a specific s7 question...

If an email is sent to your personal account, you can't reply to it from a different account. You would need to first forward the email to your Secondary account, and then reply to it.
