Here is a little background. I switched from iPhone 4S to Galaxy S3. Apart from the learning curve (I expected that) everything is going well except for a few annoyances. The one that is driving me nuts is the Email. Again I am new to Android so may be there are setting I have no idea exists.
I have three Email account setup, Hotmail, Gmail and Corporate Exchange Server. By default when I receive the Email it's in text with zero HTML formatting. I checked show images in the options with no luck. I do realize the biggest appeal for android is the endless options and customization
( trust me I know I am windows guy) but something as basic as Email should be set to work just out of the box especially on a smartphone of this caliber. Anyways would greatly appreciate any feedback regarding how to solve this issue. Thanks in advance.
The gmail app works fine.
I'm having the same problem as you do with the other email app that does exchange. You have to go to the bottom of the email and tap on the "Load more details" box and the mail then gets HTML formatted.
Although some HTML emails come up immediately.
I may have to use an alternate client. The best one supposedly is Touchdown but that's $20!!!

Thanks for the tip. The thing that really annoys me is that html is the most basic expectation from an email client. I am just so surprised that you have to go and select the option e every time. I know there are other email clients available but customizable doesn't mean you end up downloading and paying for something that's so basic. I am hoping someone has an easy solution.

Contacted Samsung and they don't have a solution either. I am just blown away at something so simple being buggy or even non-existent. I never had this issue on my iphone (for me my previous phone is always a benchmark I would compare to, for others it could be any brand and make).

Thats the thing, they are HTML Emails but refuse to load as such. If I go all the way at the bottom (which is a pain in itself) and click load more details they show up as they are supposed to be in full HTML.

My settings are to email retrieval size is largest allowed with each account. Forward with files. Show images checked. View mode standard. Auto download attachments. I bet you its the standard view setting. I hope this helps.

where exactly is the view mode standard. I have everything just like you but can't find the view mode standard option.
Just checked and the standard option is checked. No luck still. Both my personal and work emails use exchange servers. I am starting to think if the email app is dependant on that may be?
It is definitely possible that any type of encryption will not let you view html format. Mine is not encrypted.

I have the same problem with stock email not presenting html as hyperlinks. What I found was that some hyperlinks load properly, others do not. I found that html fails to properly present as a hyperlink, if there is a period after the html. If I forward an email to myself, the html does not render properly in the forwarded message. However, if I remove the period after the html, the hyperlink is rendered properly. I wouldn't expect a bug like this on a mature high-end product. It really undermines the usefulness of the email app.

That's a very interesting observation. If that's the issue I am hoping it will be fixed soon (like weeks not months or quarters). But I am not going to hold my breath. I completely agree with you, having such an idiotic issue crop up in the stock Email application is unacceptable when Samsung is marketing this phone as their flagship device. Moving from an Iphone 4S I still think the S3 is a very good device but issues like these just puts dent in the image real fast.
Business users are not going to be happy when HTML messages from their corporate exchange servers don't render properly.

I'm looking for a basic but functional email app for pop and gmail. The only requirement is really support for pop accounts and gmail. Live account support would be a plus but not required. Also it needs to clean up after itself. Like when I delete an email instead of leaving it in the trash I want it to empty them. Don't want it to ever delete emails from server unless I specify it in settings.
OK. I just named a bunch of requirement. LOL
By the way, free or really cheap also. Whatever the default email app in Task 14 Fat is haa all my wanted options except for emptying the trash when I exit it or even if I could just press one button to empty all trash it would be great.

Can I suggest an alternative that makes the gmail app better, and makes email much easier to work with?
Instead of having the app aggregate your different email addresses, have gmail do it. I have 7 addresses (work, school, personal, spam, other work, old, and really old). Gmail checks the pop addresses every 10 minutes or so, the others just forward. Then I set a filter for each (to:[email protected]) to tag it. Make the tags different colors. When you load up the gmail app, you'll see the tags (so you can immediately see which email address it's coming from). Advantages: 1) never mess with more than one email address no matter what computer/phone/tablet you use; 2) shared address book; 3) security; 4) ease of use; 5) awesomeness.
You know what? I've thought about it for a while now, so I'll make a how-to post about it. I'll link when I finish.
A how to would be sweet. I also use too many email addresses so this sounds like a wonderful idea. I've just been figuring out too too many thing lately to really want to hop about this without complete reference in one place. Thanks mate for the idea even if you dinner get around to the how to.

Hi,
I'm using the native Email client in CM9 with Exchange and was wondering if there was any way to enable notification when an email arrives in a subfolder. From my searching, it looks like Google has disregarded this feature request. This is rather strange as the Gmail client allows notifications for subfolders.
I know that Touchdown and Enhanced Email support subfolder notifications but I would prefer to use the native client if possible.
Do the CM guys touch the Email APK at all or just bundle it 'as is' from ICS source? I guess I could dust off old skills and start hacking the source myself...
All in all, I'm very happy with CM9. The notification bit is just a tad annoying.
Cheers!

This has been a major gripe from me over the past year or so. Every other phone OS manufacturer has this feature built in except for Android. It's not like this is something that only a few people would use. I have rules like crazy for my work email and hate the fact that I have to run 2 different email setups to get everything to work right.
Stock app doesn't do sub-folder replications
Enhanced Email screws up big time on contact creation.
So I'm stuck setting up the stock app to just pull my contacts while using EE to pull subfolder emails notifications.

I have one folder in particular I need to monitor (autonomous alarm emails from network elements). I tried using the Email widget but there is an issue with that not updating. Bleh. I guess I'm kinda screwed unless Google releases an update or I write a patch.
Hmmm... searching Google I'm hearing noises of other firmware that have patched the Email client allowing notification for subfolders. I'll have to dig into this more later. 'Twould be cool if it was a trivial patch easily applied to current ICS/CM9 Email tree.

My GS2 running GB 2.36 doesn't support folders, but I have used EE and are currently using touchdown. The strange thing is my Acer tablet supports folders in both Honeycomb and ICS.
i noticed the other day that if you go into a subfolder using the stock app and press the menu button that you can set it up to sync. I receive so many email that I can't say for sure if the notification window notifies you of subfolder emails, but I know that if you look at all folders you'll see a gray number all the way to the right indicating how many unread emails are in that subfolder.

Yeah, I tried that. The folder will sync (I have local cache for folder) but I receive no notification of new emails when they arrive in folder. Grrrr!
I'm not sure why Google put subfolder notification in the Gmail app but not in the stock Email app. Very odd.

Ha! No solution but something more on the order of a workaround for my particular situation. I got rid of the subfolder and built rules in Exchange to discard messages of no import to me.
I have not checked Jelly Bean's Email client as yet. Hopefully it implements notification for child folders. If not then someone at Google needs to be flogged relentlessly.
How are you guys setting rules in the native app? Is it something that only works on Exchange? I'd love to find an app that will let me filter my IMAP account like regular apps like Thunderbird/Apple Mail do.

Sorry, I might not have been clear. I built the filter rules on the Microsoft Exchange server, not on my phone.
Who are you using for mail? Google provides a nice array of server based filtering options with Gmail. Also, the stock ICS Gmail client supports child folder (label) notification with the option of setting ringtones per folder. Pure greatness in my opinion.

As of the latest JB build the email client functions are exactly the same. I had a DROID Charge before my Nexus, and someone modified that native email client to allow notifications for sub folders. Is there anyway to customize the native client? Anyone want to give this a try?

It works great. I have a torrent of crap hitting my Gmail box but most of it gets filtered and tagged with a label. (FYI -- Google uses labels instead of actual folders in Gmail. For all intents and purposes they are equivalent)
For lists I actually nest lables. Parent label is 'Lists' and all the email lists I belong to are nested underneath. Filter rules automatically bypass the inbox and drop the email in the appropriate place.
See attached screenshot. In it I'm looking at 'Lists/ODK'.
I too have the same problem and have decided to use TouchDown.
I too am missing the nofitications from subfolders in the email app in Android, so I made a quick look at the source code of this app to see if it would be possible to add this feature myself.
The notification itself happens in the NotificationController.java class: https://android.googlesource.com/pl...com/android/email/NotificationController.java
I did until now manage it to get an event in this class when an email arrives in a subfolder by modifying the class EmailProvider.java: https://android.googlesource.com/pl...com/android/email/provider/EmailProvider.java
I've changed the getBaseNotificationUri method to also return an uri on MESSAGE event. The only problem now is that in NotificationController.java only the combined inbox is checked for new emails. Maybe I can change that so that every message is checked. Maybe I have some time this weekend to try this.
I've managed to build a version of the email app that shows notifications when an email arrives in a subfolder. But when clicking on the notification it just opens the inbox of the account. I have to adjust this part too. I hope I will find some time.
I've been on Android about 6 months now. First I had a Galaxy Note & now I have a Galaxy Note 2. In that time I've tried around 30 email clients (some free & some paid versions) but I've still not some across a client that can offer me some (what I consider) very simple features.
What I'd like the client to do is:
1. Be able to resize within the email view so I can see the whole email (or at least the width of it if the mail is longer than one page length). This is such a simple thing but the only one I've found that does this is the official Hotmail client but that brings with it a whole load of other issues... Even the Gmail client doesn't let you do this & you're forced to scroll around the screen trying to put together a virtual jigsaw puzzle in your head of what the whole email should look like.
2. Be able to set an option in the settings to always allow images. Again a simple feature. Something similar to the Gmail app would also be OK where you set it for each sender separately.
3. Always display as HTML.
4. Push notifications that display the message title/sender in the notification.
Hopefully someone knows of such a client but I haven't found one yet.
Thanks for your help people.

Thanks. I downloaded Enhanced Email from the play store. It does most of the stuff but doesn't let you know the source or title of the incoming mail. Just tells you that you have new mail.
Also having some problems with formatting emails in mobile view.
It's probably the best I've tried though.
You probably won't find an email client that tells you the sender and title because usually people receive multiple emails at a time from various senders.
And try K 9 mail

Having used enhanced email for a few days I can say that it's definitely not up to use full time. When ever I reboot my phone it deletes my Hotmail account, it doesn't notify properly, has no push for Gmail, can't format html into mobile view effectively & has a poor gui. Very expensive for why it does.
I have tried K9 before & unless it's been updated recently there isn't an option to resize an email so that the while mail is displayed at once is there?

Yes, you can pinch to zoom but I'd like to display the whole email on screen at once & then decide which part of the email I'd like to zoom into (if any). K9 & most other Android clients don't allow this. The only app that I've found that can do this at all is the official Hotmail app but the rest of the app is so basic its shocking. It doesn't allow you to always show images & on my current phone its a 3 click process to show images (in every mail you view). It also truncates all mails to a maximum of 100kb do anything over this takes a further 3 clicks to display properly. Very poor.
Try Aquamail. I absolutely love it, and it has all these features. Their mobile view is the main reason I use it. Make sure you pick up the latest beta version 4 here: www.aqua-mail.com/?page_id=217
The mobile view used to be incorporated into the appstore version. The developer took it out temporarily, and it is only in the latest beta.
For the HTC Email stock JB 4.1 app, on some emails with web links in the body of the email the email app doesn't give hyperlink. I have to copy it then open a web broswer, then paste, etc. Also, say i get a package confirmation email with a tracking number. On my iPhone the tracking number was a link directly to UPS and my package so i can just tap that tracking number, web browser opens and shows tracking status. Again HTC mail app fails here and have to copy tracking number, open web browser, to to ups.com, paste tracking number, etc to do the same thing. Is the HTC stock email app just not that smart for such simple requests/features that i would think would be standard by now?
The reason why i use the stock email is because i have both yahoo and gmail accounts so this email app groups them into one inbox so it's easy to read having this one app in the dock. If i didn't use the HTC email app then i would have to put both yahoo app and gmail app in the dock wasting a spot since the dock only allows 4 apps.
Anyone know a way around this or maybe a better email app that can group several accounts into 1 inbox like the HTC email app and offer hyperlinks to all web addresses included in the email body? Maybe asking for a tracking number hyperlink is too much with this device, lol? Thanks

Didn't know there were links problem with HTC stock mail app, but, i've also notified that this app is not as smooth as it looks since you can't choice push synchronization, you have to choice a period of time or the smartsync (wich works like a ****)
I'd prefer to use HTC mail app than Gmail app, since htc looks better, but well... gmail default's app works much better.
Maybe you can try other mail apps like K-9, for example
I have never had this issue with HTC's mail app.
On my old phone, I would use Enhanced Email. This is a very nice paid email app that can deal with the security that some exchange serves have.
I poked around in my settings looking for something that might cause your problem, but I couldn't find anything. If no one here suggests something useful, try stopping in the ATT store and having them look at it, or call 911 and explain the problem there.
Having played with my girl friends iPhone from time to time, I have always found the Android to be a bit better.
Also, afaik, the only way you get true push mail is with an MS exchange account, or using a Blackberry.

HTC email app provides the best features. Try to sync reply status on the iPhone, or try to set out of office with any exchange email client. Push is no longer a problem since the original HTC One X issues. Also, the productivity lockscreen (which is the only reason I have a HTC phone other than any other android phone) only works with the stock email app. I used EE for push while HTC fixed their issues, but I couldn't see my messages without unlocking my phone and I hate to go through putting in my unlock code to realize it was just the latest junk email. I have found that the stock app has more features than EE especially with an exchange server. (Except for bypassing security, which is not a good idea anyway.)

Well they sue everyone under the sun. I'm shocked they haven't sued anyone for having a store with 4 walls.
The patents in question include: (1) the ability to unlock the phone by sliding an image; (2) the ability to search for information via voice commands; (3) making use of data as hyperlinks; and (4) searching across multiple sources to find information. Apple argues that all of these features are ones that customers expect from Apple products. In other words, they are unique to Apple products.
What email app do you guys use thats not the stock Mate 20 pro?
I am having problems linking my corporate exchange email account where it doesnt push emails to the phone at all but google and hotmail works (also not push but works every 5 minutes interval).

Newton (it's back!)
I really hope their business model works this time as there is nothing on android that comes close for me.
While it was away I was using the BB hub, not bad at all.
K9-mail has been one of the first mail app.
The most complete for functionality and customization.
And best of all, it's completely free and open source.
I've been using it for about 10 years, currently 10 mailboxes configured.

Yahoo mail pretty good even with Gmail and outlook and exchange

Does this do PUSH EMAIL?
I've been using Aquamail for years because I like the extensive customization options. I periodically try different email programs but so far I have always ended up going back to Aquamail.
There was a problem for a while where Aquamail didn't play nice with Yahoo Mail because Yahoo didn't like the security standards Aquamail was using but Aquamail updated its app to comply with stricter security standards so that's been resolved.
I can't stand Yahoo's app which is terrible at displaying the content of emails--they end up being too large, too small or the text and images get arranged and spaced oddly.
Gmail has gotten better even though it has very few options for user customization but the lack of a dark mode turns me off--to me that app is way too white and ugly.

Yes I agree with you Gmail & Calendar both need a dark mode, Gmail looks like a Snow blizzards hit it.

Indeed it does, I use it with exchange 2013 and office 365. It's costs a bit of money but it's well worth it. From memory it has a 2 week trial

I haven't used Blue recently but what I didn't like about it at the time was that I couldn't load all of my unread emails at once. It would load a small number which I read then I needed to click load more which would load a small number again. I contacted the dev because I found that whole process needlessly tedious and it's possible Blue doesn't work like that anymore. Sometimes I also ended up with a batch of unread messages because Blue didn't load everything.
There was also an email app called Type that appeared to be exacly the same as Blue except for the app name and color. Not sure what the point of offering the exact same app under 2 different names was.
Another vote for Nine mail.. I think it's the best email for professionals
I’ve been on Nine for many, many years. Just got a M20 Pro today and I can’t get Nine to work. It basically never completes the initial handshake with O365. Anyone else seen this? I really can’t imagine using something else other than Nine!!!
Edit: resolved by doing manual config, and selecting Exchange rather than O365 as the server type. Problem solved.
Nine email is the best... Worth the money
