What sync interval is your phone set to? You probably want it set to "push".

Spam filtering email?

Hey guys,
I've got a work account that I've had over 5 years now, and with our server's spam filtering, 99% of all spam is eliminated, however I still get about 25 spams per day. Our server does help by adding {Spam} to the title of suspected spam that isn't automatically deleted.
Is there any way I can filter out email by this tag, or even better, is there a recommended app (preferably free) that can filter spam on just the Touch Pro for me?
Thanks folks!
Run your email through gmail. Set up gmail to pull in mail from your other pop accounts, then just set up your Gmail account on your phone. I was getting a ton of Spam and now get like 1 or two a day at most.
Thats an awesome idea.
Thanks!

would you still be able to pull your mail through outlook on your home pc if you did this? without having to set up gmail on outlook i mean, just having the default settings for my original pop email

You could check your normal pop email (non-Gmail account) but it wouldn't be filtered through Gmail's spam filters. You can set up Gmail in Outlook and you'll get all of your messages just like if you set up the email account directly.

[Q] which email app do you use and why please.?

Please as title states, which email app do you guys prefer, on the sg2, and why please. I want to be able to use gmail, so jus want to findout what you guys are using, to receive or send your gmail emails. I also want the option to schedule the sync, so your input very much required.
I use the stock Gmail app for my gmail. gmail isn't my primary account so not bothered by any failings, etc.
I use K9 for my main non-gmail personal account. Am very happy with it, can schedule timings and specify a quiet time, when I don't want to be distured by email notifications (i.e. when I'm asleep).

I use gmail and have set it (via the web app) to collect hotmail and another pop3 account, so it's perfect for me as I have all emails in 1 app, and I do like the gmail app!

Apologies for the delayed reply.
I think it's as follows:
Menu --> More --> Settings --> Account Settings --> Fetching Mail:
"Folder Poll Frequency".
Also under the above and within --> Advanced:
"Refresh IDLE connection".
I "think" that's what you're after... to be honest mine has always just worked.
Hope it helps!
i like samsung's email app. Only thing i cant figure out is how to put it to push.
I tried the Samsung E-Mail app but it really pissed me off more and more. You can hardly make any settings, just specify how many mails to load (timeframe) and how often to update, that's about it. the funtionality and look are standard.
I switched to K9 mail again and instantly remembered why I always came back to that app. Not only does my Push work flawlessly for both accounts (one business, one private that collects) without any "premium" account hassle making use of that annoying social hub, but I can specify all sorts of settings like how much data to transfer by default per mail, to load images, and many many more.

to make push work you have to set your mail account as an imap account. to do so you need to make it a premium account which leads you to samsung collecting your mails via the social hub ... I'd recommend k9 mail. looks the same, and you can make almost any necessary setting.
The stock Gmail app does everything I could ask for
I switched to EnhancedEmail when I used to have a DHD as the stock email client didn't sync contacts and calendars probably.
Enhanced did all the syncing perfectly, however, it just did not allow Exchange accout contacts to be created or added (i dont really know if the stock email client had the same problem or not).
With the SGS2, i used EnhancedEmail first, but recently switched to the stock samsung email client - it seems to work flawlessly, albeit, with the limitations to customisations stated by others. I use Exchange (both my my company email and hotmail) on Push, and at that, it is good enough for my usage.

Plus the stock mail app draines more battery then k9 due to being more active or active in the wrong way I don't know, but there is a big difference, at least on my phone.

[Q] Why won't Gmail background sync?

I have a Tab 10.1 WiFi running Task 14 with Pershoot's Kernal (not overclocking).
I find that Gmail won't sync in the background. I have to manually load the Gmail app for it to sync and show me new/changed messages. I have Wifi sleep policy set to never and background sync enabled in the settings.
How do I get Gmail to automatically sync?
Thanks
I've had that happen before. Just clear data for gmail app and it should be good to go then.

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried this and at first thought it worked but it hasn't. Gmail has gone back to not autoupdating until I manually launch the app...
Have you checked your sync settings?
Go to settings > accounts & sync > your gmail account > check sync gmail is checked.
It's normally pretty good at indicating on one of the latter screens whether there are sync issues or not.
You need to do it manually in sync as he said ^
Might want to change to alert per email.

Setting Up Outlook Email on Evo LTE?

I just got set up with a new outlook.com email address and want to have it sync on my Evo LTE. However, it seems like it won't sync up. Anyone have the settings needed to have it work properly?
Thanks!

Are you setting it up as "Microsoft Hotmail" or anything else?
Edit: I should add that it has to be set up as "Microsoft Hotmail" account, because it's the same service. I just set mine up, and all it asked for was my username and password.

I tried as hotmail and as activesync. Either way, I can get it to allow the settings and act like it is set up (no errors), but then it fails when it tries to actually sync up.

I've added mine, and the only email that I got was the welcome email. It was already in my inbox on the site, but took awhile after adding it to my phone before it showed up. I'm also unable to send any email. Let me look into this a little further. It appears that it may be the server settings, but they're unable to be changed. I'll see what I can find.
I could not get my hotmail to sync either with the microsoft hotmail setup. I set mine up using choosing other and setting up as pop3. Enter in email address, password, and click next (do not choose manual setup). It should work!
That's right, you should be able to add Hotmail via IMAP if needed. I'm not sure why a separate Hotmail sync engine is included on Sense 4.0
There is a known issue with Hotmail syncing to these phones via the Hotmail mail-sync shortcut. Well documented issue, in fact(just saying this so you don't feel alone ).
You need to use the IMAP email setup to get it to work.
The bummer is, I REALLY would like to get my hotmail calendar synced up with my phone! I can't figure that out. This sort of thing should be VERY streamlined by now. Seems like only BlackBerry knows how to do this correctly.

Another option is the hotmail app. It works and can do push or scheduled sync.
