sometimes it seems to stalling while fetching email.. even with the stallfix.... with standard rom, anyone has this lag too?
Me too. That's why I don't use it for mail anymore until I can find ways to speed it up. I also have problem setting up yahoo mail. Anyone knows how to do it?
Use k9 app for mail. It is better.
For yahoo try yahoo mail app.

about yahoo mail, but I want a universal mailbox, where all my 7 email accounts can be read within the same inbox. I like K9 more than stock mail, but it's still too slow for me.
For information how do you use the mail app ?
Frequency of sync, number of days/week/month of mail synced, number of mail displayed in the inbox ...
thanks

Wierd.. I'm running rooted 024 n hotmail via dolphin browser works perfectly normal for me. looks more neater/nicer than before!!

On your phone, manually enter the website http://mobile.live.com
That should bring you to the new version of the hotmail site.
I just tried the new hotmail website using dolphin browser, nice, it allows me to dl the attachment now.

You can now forward your hotmail to any email address. I have mine forwarded to my gmail account and use gmail to read/reply. Works awesome.
I still don't understand why you aren't all using the mail app to sync with your Hotmail account.. I do ... and it works fine.

If I use the mail app to sync my hotmail account, it can only sync every 5 minutes. With Gmail, it is almost instantaneous (like push email).
I will get my hotmail email faster via forwarding to my gmail account that having the mail app check every 5 minutes.
That is why I do it via Gmail.

I don't understand the need to forward my msgs to another email addy when i already ahve one...that's crazy!
There must be a solution?

Hotmail doesn't support push notifications on mobile devices (yet) Microsoft said this should be coming by the end of the year. Can't find the link atm, but shouldnt be too hard to google

Actually, it does but only on Windows Mobile devices. I used to have push with hotmail and Exchange at the same time with Windows Mobile.

Can anyone help?
I got it to the point now where it constantly shows I have email when I don't. When I go online to gmail and clear out email then my gmail app shows correctly until I delete the next email. Its a if the app isn't sync correctly to gmail.

I have stopped using the Gmail app (got tired of the interface and such) and use K-9 mail instead. Most people don't realize that k-9 mail supports IMAP idle and so does Gmail so you still get push mail.
Tried k9 before, it was unreliable for hotmail and gmail.

Don't know where you get that from. Been using K-9 since day 1 on my Epic, with 5 different email accounts (Yahoo/AIM/Gmail/Hotmail/.Mac), 100% rock solid. Gmail and AIM use imap idle so they're next to push, the rest are set to poll every 2 hrs. Works solid.
People, i want to know what do u use for Gmail account emails???
Do you use "mail" or "gmail" ???
Well,in mail you can set the synchronosation and retrival timings and frequency.
While using the "gmail" , u cannot set frequency of sync of mails.
Do suggest what is best for Gmail???

Guess it's personal taste, but I myself prefer the Gmail app, since mail notifications appear pretty much the second the mail arrives, and not on the next sync
I prefer gmail app too. There is no synch time, because gmail app have push notification.

I peter the Gmail app as well. Main reason is push notification and send as feature.

I had the same dilemma, HTC mail or gmail....
The gmail app has at least 2 important features missing:
1. There is no pinch to zoom (you can't zoom, this can be very frustrating at times).
2. There is no notification for incoming mail in labels (you only get notified for the main inbox).
For these reasons I finally decided to use k9 mail. It has much more features than the gmail app, supports push as fast if not faster than the gmail app including for labels, and zoom works as well as with HTC mail.
Mail can of course push gmail as well. When setting up an account don't choose googlemail (POP3/IMAP), but set it as Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync using details as described on http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138636&topic=14299
I know it shows how to set it up on Windows Mobile, but you just need to use the same domain etc.
It will then push email just as it arrives to your mailbox. On my DHD it always beeps earlier than notification addon installed on Google Chrome on my PC when email arrives.
I'm using Gmail with all my other emails imported into it, so I only have to check one inbox to read mail from my AOL, MSN, Hotmail, Roadrunner, and of course, Gmail itself. Very nice mail app.
I use Gmail.
Gmail. If only because I can't be bothered setting up anything else.
Gmail. It's painless.
Cheers from my DHD.

Mail (gmail push). just because i use widgets .

The problem with HTC mail is the same as with the gmail app : it doesn't push the labels; so any new mail you have set to go to a label will not get notified (for instance, I get no notification for my alias email that goes to a sub folder aka gmail label).
K9 Mail has solved this problem. It's the only free mail app so complete and it just "works" where the 2 others above fail.
Tbh, I do prefer Gmail but when I got a reply from co pilot I had to reply within their email and I couldn't because it did not allow me to edit via my phone, its a shame really as I needed to send the email whilst I was on the move, but comparing the two, I do prefer the Gmail overall. The normal email has problems syncing and sometimes brings up emails from ages ago which I had forgotten about

I use Mail to sync with my my company's exchange server, mostly for calender and contacts so I know what im meant to be doing, I wont sync my mail unless there is something specific i need.
I still use gmail app for my gmail personal account.
I have found that HTC's exchange sync app really good, other people in the company have samsung androids or stock androids and have difficulties.
I haven't found a way of getting hold of attachments in the Gmail app... You can only view attachments if it's a document type that Gmail can handle.
Why is there no hotmail widget for android? The mail app/widget we have is not of much help. I can't see the folders I have created and neither does it sync properly.
After reading mails on phone, it will be unread and if I delete it here on the phone, it will still be there when I use the web version. Any solution?

Setup hotmail using Exchange, google it up.
Configure your Exchange ActiveSync or use Gmail.
The mail viewer is much better

I decided to get rid of the yahoo email app because it wasn't working properly and decided to try the native email app to setup my yahoo account and it worked. Before it wasn't working. I don't know if this is old news or not but it's great. I no longer need the yahoo app
