Hi All,
I have a HTC hero running MoDoCo custom rom r4 on Tmobile UK.
I use google contact to store my contacts and link there profiles to facebook twitter etc.
My issue is that i have set up a group in my contacts that i send txt jokes to.
So when i go to forward these txt jokes my phone sends it to all the phone numbers and email addresses in the persons contacts, so sends it as a MMS not TXT so this limits it to 10 ppl that the msg can be sent to only.
I have looked at the contacts and both the mobile and email address are marked as Primary , how do i stop this from happening as its well annoying
Any advice hints or tips greatly recived
Thanks in advance

Overall, I really like Kaiten and K9 email clients. However, the following issues are really annoying and would like some help if possible.
1. If I scroll down to the middle of my inbox to read a few messages
then switch to a different app; when I switch back to K9/Kaiten, the inbox automatically scrolls back to the top. Therefore, I lose my place EVERY TIME and have to remember how far down I was in the inbox. Any fix for this?
2. When reading an email in Kaiten, is it possible to make the LEFT navigational arrow bring up the next NEWEST email (going UP in the inbox) instead of the next oldest (down) email? (This works perfectly in K9)
3. When reading an email, if I switch to another app then return to the email, none of the navigational buttons work (ie. the arrows or volume buttons) to allow me to move on to another email. I must hit the back arrow to get to the email list which of course automatically scrolls all the way back to the top of my inbox and loses my place. ARGH!!!! (see #1)
4. Is it possible to change the font color in the signature and when
composing new emails?
5. Is it possible to change the font type (ie. Times New Roman,
Courier, etc.) in the signature and when composing new emails?
Is there another IMAP client out there that does NOT have these issues? In addition to K9 and Kaiten, I've tried Enhanced Mail, Touchdown, MailDroid, Moxier Mail, and the stock app of course. They all seem to have various issues. Maybe I'm expecting too much out of an app. The stock email app on my Palm Pre worked well for me!
Same, I can't find a good replacement with everything I need, The old wm6.5 email client was perfect for me.

I agree with the email limitations of Android apps and couldn't figure out how to do some of these either. Only thing I know of for issue #1 would be to star the email before going out so can easily find it again. Not a solution though I know.
If you haven't done it already, send a request to the app developers to add the features. Especially with #1 & #2 in your list. These would be good to have.
Yeah, I'm with you -- no Android e-mail client seems perfect. Of the ones I've tried, I ended up with Enhanced E-Mail (for IMAP) and the stock client (for Exchange).

I just learned that Enhanced Email also supports Exchange. This is the app that is working best for me right now.
Enhanced Email is by far the best email app, and much better than the built in app. It is however 10 bucks and that is a drawback, but it is worth twice that amount. The one thing to note is that Google changed what was available to third party email clients when it comes to contacts. That can be fixed with Contact Editor app.
I will give enhanced email a try. I've also been looking into a new mail client for Android.
I normally use touchdown, but it can be unwieldy (and the UI is all kinds of suck).
I've been using the Enhanced Email Trial for almost a week and I think I'm falling in love. Will probably purchase it soon...
Does anyone have a code example for getting the unread mail count from K-9 mail? (Either per-account, or an overall value?)
All I've been able to find is documentation on receiving new mail notifications.

@benjymous
Did you ever find any, I've been looking through the source code of K9 mail, and there seems to be no easy way to just get the unread count.

Actually, yes. Here's the code for a dashclock widget I made, that should provide a nice self contained example.
I haven't tried it in a year or so, so things might've changed again, but it should point you in the right direction, at least.

Edit: IT WORKS!!!!!!!!!!
Have a strange issue, when I send email using the stock email app via my pop3 account the outgoing name does not display. I know how to set it, I can set it in the settings and it stays there I have changed it etc but whenever i send an email it does not get applied properly. The real issue is, on my outlook client when i receive the email it comes form an unknown sender (name AND email address is unknown) when i send an email to a exchange server it picks up the form email address but not the name. Now this plays HAVOC with spam because every spam filter in the world is going to mark an email with an unknown sender as spam.
It used to work just fine, the only change I made, (and I can't remember if it worked after the change or not) was that I went form the stock 2.3.4 ROM to bruno martins 2.3.5 V3.3MOD ROM.
Any advice? I could probably copy over a copy of the original email.apk file to see if it fixes it but anyone else experienced this?

Hello,
Is it possible to see what notifications i have on my phone and send them to my server (automaticly) ?
So when i get a whatsapp, or mail its pushing something to my server?
So i can see that there is a notification from whatsapp (Dont have to see the message)
Because im trying to change my Xiaomi Yeelight based on notifications.
Something like: Whatsapp green, mail blue, youtube red
Is there someting like this?
