I was able to assign Yahoo Mail as my default e mail last night. So now when I hit the "Mail" icon - my Yahoo e mail account pops up. Nice.
One problem though - when I went to send my first e mail - none of my contacts are showing up?? Usually (on my PC) a pop up window opens that lists all my contacts. I check who I want to send the email to and I'm good to go. Not in this case...
- One other issue - when I delete e mail from my Galaxy, they don't delete from my e mail account on my (PC).
Any suggestions??
I use the Yahoo e mail app on my Droid which works great. However, because it's not optimized for a tablet, when I use it on my Galaxy, the font is so small I can barely see it. I mean it's borderline microscopic.
Wish yahoo would make a tablet oriented e mail app...
Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1
Its time to join this century and use Gmail.
Haha but seriously, the app is what you need. You'll just have to wait for a Tablet optimized Yahoo Mail app (if one ever does come out)

You can link your yahoo mail to your newly created Gmail.
I never did it because I started Gmail as soon as it came out in closed beta, but I'm gonna guess that means your yahoo emails will come to your Gmail account.
You can do this after signing into gmail and going to account settings, look under "Connected Accounts".

Hi all,
I recently bought a Droid 2 Global. It has 3 mail apps: 1 app from motorola, 1 app from verizon and 1 gmail app. How to consolidate all three to just one. I can import my yahoo mails to one of the universal mail apps. But not able to import emails from my google app mail account.
So currently i am using gmail app and an universal email app for yahoo.
What should i do to consolidate all my accounts. Iphone is very straight forward. Droid is confusing .
Any suggestions are welcome.

You can always pop your other accounts into gmail, apply a label and be done with it. This is how I manage my emails.
Look in the market for K9 Mail.
Will do all your emails (multiple accounts) and even throw them into a unified inbox display if you want.

This. i have a gmail account for myself, and a seperate one for my band. i link my band email to my personal one and slap a label on it and call it done. then i when i sign into my personal email using the gmail app, my band emails are automatically there, dont even have to bother putting in the login info for that email address.

Sounds like a great idea
I have a little different issue. I have a mail account to which I have two different mail addresses assigned (one is alias).
I would like to send some official mails from one address, which contains my name, and some personal mails or mails to "unknown" people who do not need to know my name from the second address.
On PC, in Mozilla Thunderbird, is option for "identities" where you can add additional mail address/identity to the same account.
Is there any mail client for Android which could do it also? Other option is to run two mail accounts with same server and login settings and different mail address, but in that case I will receive each incomming mail to both.
Hope I explained it well
Thanks in advance for advices.
K9 mail is what I use.
Push email for my aol and gmail accounts.
The stock email application does not offer push for many providers.

Hey, theecho... I have looked for an option to "just pop" my other accounts in to Gmail, and and can't see how I could. When I try to just add another email account into gmail (a pop3 for example, one I already have within the 'blur' email app) Gmail politiely tells me I already have this account added.
How do I do what you've suggested?

I'm having this email alert on my SG2 that annoys me a lot... i have setup the gmail account on the gmail app (the one with the red M and an envelop) and i also did on the social hub.
now everytime i got an email it alerts me on the gmail app and on the social hub witch kinda annoys me... I'm trying to figure out how to remove the acct on the social hub but theres no option to delete it... and so it is with the gmail app.
i did try to remove the acct on the accts and sync... but it won't let me... now I'm very confused and kinda mad coz i can't figure it out...
is there a way to remove ether on e of the acct so that i can have only one notification on my gmail
Just disable the Gmail app notifications.

I had the same problem for a while. Go into the Email application (the Samsung one), and add another account. Then, on the screen where it lets you choose which account to go into, press menu, and there's an option to delete one. (I'm pretty sure I did it this way, but I might be wrong.)
How can I setup my yahoo email account to push the emails to my phone instead of having the phone checking for them every 15 minutes?
pushing emails to the phone is better for battery life so that is why I am asking.
maybe there is a way to connect my yahoo email to the gmail app, so that way emails will be pushed to my phone through gmail..?
Yeah, you can use POP or IMAP, I forget which to have gmail grab your yahoo mail for you. You set it up through gmail.
I don't think yahoo has exchange settings.

use IMAP
here are the settings that have always worked for me:
Edit: nevermind, read the OP incorrectly... my badd
Yahoo doesn't use the standardize IMAP - Idle. It's a variation of P-IMAP that Apple and Yahoo "made up" with various protocols
Long story short... there is only ONE app I know that works with Yahoo's Push. Maildroid
There is a Yahoo email app in the market. Not sure if it's what you're looking for though, as I haven't used it.
I think you can do one of two things:
1) setup your gmail to pull emails from your yahoo mail account. Problem is that you can't send via yahoo mail account, using this method.
2) you can download the Yahoo Mail app but reports show that its a battery killer.
I think Yahoo wont let you push mail directly from them unless you pay for their premium service or use their own Yahoo app
OP, go to GMail settings on your desktop. Set it up to retrieve emails from your Yahoo mail account. You can also set a label for all the email from Yahoo. It will then push them into your Gmail app with proper label. Gmail server will automatically figure out the interval it will check for the mail from Yahoo so your phone don't have to do it.
Yahoo mail is one of the worst mail servers for Smartphones.

there, fixed it for ya
ugh, it won't let me set it up through gmail because i dont have the yahoo! mail plus.
any other ideas on how to push yahoo email to my phone?
i know moving to using just gmail would be an option, but that would take entirely too long to change all my email addresses on all the sites i visit to a gmail address.

I remember I had this issue setting up yahoo mail on my captivate with the stock email. I never use my yahoo account, I don't even know why I have one. I figured I would give it a try on the SGS II for kicks. The settings look like they are specific for Samsung phones (and different than the previous screen shots). Can you manually enter these settings into gmail?
Incoming settings:
Outgoing settings:
Of course replace my email address with your own.
My other suggestion would be yahoo settings. Can you set a yahoo account to auto-forward?

Hi, I searched the forums but could not find any thread that dealt with this issue (for any phone), so I apologize if it's already been posted. And since I don't know if this is just an issue with the Rezound, I'm posting it here.
When I set up my Rezound I entered in my Google account info, and the phone automatically set up my Gmail account both in the Gmail app and in the stock HTC Sense Mail app. The Gmail app seems to work fine, but the stock email app doesn't sync the read status of new messages. If I get any emails in Gmail during the day, even if I log into it on my computer and read the messages, they still show up as unread in the sense mail app. Refreshing the app doesn't change anything. In the Gmail app, the messages will be marked as read if I have viewed them anywhere else.
I can't figure out how to fix this, and there doesn't seem to be a way to edit any server settings for the account, as sense has it registered as a Gmail account in the stock mail app, and not as a pop/imap account.
Anybody having this problem, or know how to fix it? I'm a new android user, and have only had this phone for a few days. Thanks.
Just take the gmail email out of the htc mail and just use the gmail email app to get your gmail mail.

I would like to avoid doing this if possible. I like having all my mail in one place. Any way to fix the stock app?
Email htc/usa and ask them. It only takes one second to push the gmail app,that's what I do. I understand you don't want to do that. Htc should be able to tell you how to change the settings.

I got an official reply from HTC:
Thank you for contacting HTC Technical support about the issue you are having with your Gmail account on your device. I do apologize that you have this issue with your device and I will gladly assist you with this today. We recommend you delete your Gmail account from the mail application on your device and use the Gmail application for your Gmail account on your device. The issue you are having it with the way the Gmail POP3 servers work with the Mail application on the device and there is not a setting to make it sync up to have the mail show up read until you up it on your device.

So it looks like, for whatever reason, the Gmail setting in the sense email app defaults to POP3, even though I have IMAP enabled in my gmail web settings. Unless anyone knows a way to fix this, I guess I will have to either set Gmail up as a regular IMAP account or just use the standalone application.
Thanks for the replies
What email app are you using on your V10 and how do you like it?
I was using "Mailbox" from Dropbox but they are doing away with the app so I need something new that is fast and efficient.
I'm looking for an app that provides instant push notifications and has the little round badge count that shows up on the icon.
Any suggestions?
I use myMail: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.my.mail&hl=et
That's really good. There are ads sometimes, which are in your inbox after like every 10 mails or smth like that. But luckily those come very seldom.

Gmail for me, too. Download the latest Exchange Services APK from APK mirror and you can also set up corporate accounts on Gmail.

That is. Very nice multi-account support; I do have 7 accounts configured there and it's been the best combined inbox experience for me with the most features.

Stock.
Don't judge me.....
I just switched to the stock email client from cloudmagic. I like how I am able to just sign in the cloudmagic app on any phone and all of my email accounts along with set signatures will sync. No need to add each one.. I have 8 email accounts.
The only thing that is missing from the stock v10 email app is the ability to delete/mark read/archive from the notification. Other than that it is verry light and smooth. The search function is also quicker than cloudmagic.
