Is there a way to back the original Motoblur Email client after installing ElmasROM?
I've tried AquaMail, MailDroid, [email protected] Mail, they all don't work completely for me. I can't get Hotmail folders, and they get out of sync with the server. Can't mark msgs as read on server
I like not tracking down a deodexed GB ROM and trying out the email app too!
In addition, NO BLUR APPS ON CM7! this is a 2 almost 3 yr old phone and has had CM7 for ages. This question has been brought up before and answered. Use the search bar, if not on here then on google, yahoo, etc. Search before asking questions like this.

I'm using CM7 mrom (but I don't think, it's important) and K9 mail works quite well using IMAP and hotmail. I have even another account on office365, but in this case, very often, It can't connect to server (not problem in K9 - do the same on PC and live mail)

So i got my Eris all flashed over and provisioned and everything seems to work great. Except the ONE thing that worked through the metroflash BEFORE i provisioned ANYTHING was the stock Email app. After i finished drunkenmojo's tutorial, email did not work. GMAIL works fine however it will not let me add my AOL mail account, i think its an old version of GMAIL? How would i update it? Currently im running XTRom4.6.5. Everything works great except the stock Email app which i really need for my AOL mail. I tried K9mail and it has the same problem. If i can add my AOL mail acct to Gmail ill be a happy camper...anybody got any ideas? I reflashed the ROM and re-provisioned even...still same problem with stock Email app. I beleive my Gmail version is 1.3 or 1.5 or something like that.
Get gmail. Sorry but in there lies your problem

I have Gmail. Not willing to fully covert to it at the moment. There has to be a fix for this or a way to at least have the Gmail app read my AOL mail acct info...
I guess aol isn't widely used enough. my suggestion is find a rom with a email client that is friendly with aol

K9mail is open source right? Maybe theres something that can be done within its code to get this to work, idunno.
For now im using ShangMail as i found it works. It doesnt work the way i want to (like the stock Mail app) but it lets me check my emails just fine so whatever.
Anyone recommend a "one size fit all email app" like the iphone, for Att S2?
I'm using Exchange, yahoo, gmail. I have lots of folder in my exchange mail and the stock Mail is sux.
Moxier mail is good but only have 1 email acc. I need an app that can put all mails in one place and showing folders instead of coupel apps for emails.
Thanks
I use Gmail for all of my accounts. I set Gmail up to retrieve (pop) mail from my Yahoo account and my other email address forwards to Gmail. I have labels set up, which allows me to organize it. I've been doing this for a while and it works really well.
What about Exchange, all folder will show or i have to go settings and choose specific folder to view? it's a pain in the bu.. . I really like the way iphone's emails handle.

I've never used Exchange, but if you were able to successfully configure it for pop retrieval, it'd work just as your other email addresses, in terms of how you view them (outlined below). Otherwise, perhaps forwarding is an option. For the email address I have forwarding, I set up filters (scans incoming emails for defined rules) to apply labels (e.g., when the sender or recipient is ______, apply this label). It's something you'd have to toy around with, but I've gotten mine set up pretty well.
All emails would show in your Gmail account inbox (with labels on each one, if you've done this) and you have the ability to specifically select a label to only see mail with that label. This is something you can do online or on your device via the Gmail app (viewing individual labels). I've tried just about every email client and I've found that this method is what works best for me.
Good luck.

I was set up like this as well for quite some time - and it worked well. Recently switched to using maildroid, which I like, but haven't customized to get more functionality than I had with gMail yet...
What's wrong with the stock mail client? Seems really nice to me. Should support all of those account types and you can switch folders very easily.

Back in my Captivate days, I found the stock email client to be unreliable. Ever since then, I've been avoiding it.

The problem is with stock email. My folders didn't go in order some + subfolders.... Moxier mail gives exactly the folder in order like the outlook also display the number for new email....like the MS Outlook in computer.
I just reinstalled Moxier mail and use stock mail for yahoo, gmail also. Oh well, no choice

The stock email client is very nice and seems to work very well with Exchange. From what I've seen so far:
1) Tasks will sync
2) Folders are supported, much nicer and easier than with the Captivate
3) Flags are supported
4) Various display options such as first line preview, threaded emails, etc
5) Out of Office settings can be made from phone.
6) You can search emails on the server, not just those on your phone
7) In landscape it'll do a preview pane on the right-hand side. Not bad.
Try it, you've got nothing to lose. Seems pretty nice so far. The only thing I am missing is the ability to "check" multiple emails and take an action on a group of them (e.g., delete them all). You need to do it one-by-one. But so far it works well.
Anybody know if the stock email client can be set up for "push only" so it doesn't poll every x minutes for new mail?
Another vote for enhanced email. You can bypass exchange security rules

Enhanced Email is what youre looking for. I'm a huge Exchange user and this program easily integrates and works just like it does on iphone. You can choose which folders to keep in sync and it will notify you whenever a new message arrives in sub-folders.
The only problem I have with the stock email app is that you can't "Select All" and delete. That capability, and the ability to forward emails by clicking on several contacts and adding them , as the stock program does, are two features I really like; however, I can't find an email program that has both capabilities.

I installed Enhance email. However, it looks alike stock mail (may be I haven't explorer it much). I do like Moxier mail because it's giving me the interface just like Outlook (folder is in order same as my work laptop). Unfortunately, Moxier mail only have 1 account. Wish i can add other acc then it should be PERFECT
Anyone else having trouble with the stock email app? Its brutally slow and freezes the whole phone. The problem is that it syncs with the stock calender app which I need. K9 mail does not as far as I know. I wish it was possible to remove our replace the stock email app with a newer or older or fixed version or something, but I don't have root and I don't know how to without it. Any suggestions for this problem or similar experiences?

I was having issues with the stock email app. Any message I would send from my phone it would stay in the outbox and not actually send the email. I would try manually pushing the email and that would not work. My suggestion is to try enhanced email from the market. I have been using it for a week now and the customizations above the stock email are worth the price. I believe you can Google it and download a free week trial version from their website.
You can try other mail clients but if you are using your phone for work and connecting to an Exchange (or exchange-like) ActiveSync server, take it from someone who is not only a heavy email user but also the email co-admin for a 5000 user environment, Touchdown by Nitrodesk right now is the only fully functional non-buggy exchange mail client for Android. If you are only a casual or occasional email user then Enhanced Email is ok, but still has a lot of bugs. I have a lot of experience supporting everything else out there (Including a few hundred Blackberry Enterprise users, and iPhone users) and right now Touchdown for Android is the only stable one that has feature parity with a real corporate email client.
Having said that, the stock mail client on CM7 is a lot less buggy than Samsung's, HTC's or Motorola's. So if you really need to use stock for some kind of calendar integration or because your favorite widget only supports stock mail and you are comfortable with flashing custom roms then CM7 give a try.
Hi, i'm really new to all this root/cwm/flash thing, i hope i am posting to the correct thread. It seems that the stock email client will not work on unNamed rom, probably because social hub is not installed. It just won't set up the account. (I did install social hub using the addon provided by the unNamed, but didn't work, social hub won't add any account for that matter) Gmail does work. I just wanted to point out this issue, to see if someone is having the same situation.
Sorry, i'm a complete noob.
I have a strange problem with the default email app. There's like 10 copies of each email, doesn't save sent emails, don't send deleted emails to Trash folder. Anyone facing the same problem? Any available solution?

How are you configuring your email? Is it a windows live account, yahoo, gmail, etc?
Is it POP3, IMAP, or Exchange?
Personally I had a problem when configuring my windows live account with the default (Exchange) method. Whenever I send an email, it gets sent twice or thrice! I worked-around this issue by using POP3, which has many shortcomings, but it solved that issue.
Windows Live Messenger (@msn.com), it was automatically configured. Do you recommend a certain configuration? Thanks!

The issue I had with duplicate emails was resolved after updating to 3.2
I have a new galaxy tab 10.1 running 3.2 and still have the issue with multiple emails going out, and items not deleting from my deleted mail.
I've tried the stock email as well as K9. I own my own domain and use my own email. I've set it up as an IMAP account. I also have a Samsung Epic and always had the same issue there too.
I really would like a fix for this. It's pretty ridiculous that 'email' is such an issue. It's not like it's a new technology.
Help..

I got same prob with gmail app and my google acc. on my tab (running on Overcome Rom with Pershoot Kernel)
Maybe it has something to do with coustom rom's?
Not sure it has to do with custom Rom. I'm still using stock on my galaxy tab.
Am I the only person that hates the Gmail App from the market and would rather use the email app?
Right now I've got both a Samsung Galaxy Gio running CM7 and an LG Eclypse (aka MyTouch Q) running CM9 and for both of them I far prefer e-mail to gmail. Although they're very similar as far as the basic UI goes, I find that the gmail app has quite a few problems with attachments and images. Sometimes it will show me the text of an email for about 2 seconds and then go blank white. I have none of these problems with E-Mail.
I just want to see who else is like-minded on this... Thoughts? Comments?
I used to have the white display issues on both Gmail and Email.
I found that if I force closed the app and started it again, the problem disappeared.
I haven't had this problem again since moving to JB.

GMail is a lot better. It groups all emails with same subject in 1 line. It's huge advantage
I like the android one, its a lot more simple. Gmail sometimes take forever to sync, I gave up on that thing a long time ago.

I've used K-9 Mail for almost as long as I've had Android devices and have not once looked back. Seriously, try it out if you haven't already.
