Multiple gmail accounts..!! how to set default email??? - Galaxy 3 General

Hello everyone..
I have setup two gmail account in accounts and sync...
but the problem is that whenever i share any file/photo from some other app via gmail, the gmail app uses the last set up gmail account to send the email.
the last set up account is not my default account..
the gmail app doesn't have a setting to set my default email and the email from which the file or photo has to be sent cannot be changed..
is there a way in which i can set up my main gmail as my default gmail????????

Okay Fine...!!!
I figured it out....!!!!
Downloaded k9 mail app from the market... used my other emails from k9(works perfectly) and kept only my primary email in accounts and sync..!!!!

[Q] IMAP account autosync

Hello,
I have a question, is it possible to sync two e-mail account at once?
Since I have my Gmail account on autosync and works fine, then I added my work mail vie IMAP, but that account doesn't sync untill I access it manually. Tried to find the setting for it under Accounts and sync, but my IMAP account isn't listed there.
So my question would be, is it possible to set it up somehow so both accounts autosync?
Try maildroid or k9 mail for u're work account..

Gmail doesn't appear to be linked.

When I receive an e-mail on my Nexus and delete it the same e-mail isn't deleted from Gmail when I access it through my desktop, it also comes up as unread even though i have read and deleted it through the Gmail app on my Nexus.
What mail app are you using? Gmail ? The Stock Mail Client?
Both have sync settings in them.

Using the stock Gmail app. I've checked in the settings and it is all set to sync so not sure what's going on.
When using the other stock e-mail app for my other e-mail accounts they sync fine.
That happens to me in k9 on my phone. I like Gmail better on my n7. Make sure you look in settings under your account and check that manage labels is set to sync the number of days you have it set for. And that sync is set for Gmail in general settings.

Two Google accounts??delete from gmail app

Hi
I have 2 google accounts on my device one is with [email protected] and the other [email protected] first i use for purchases back
ups etc...and the second is just private I keep IT junk free.so when ever I go to the gmail app to check for emails its shows the hotmail.com account too....but i cant sync emails or anything from it so every time I need to switch back to the gmail.com account..Is there any way that i can delete that hotmail.com account from the gmail app, but not from the whole device because i use it for apps and stuff and I purchased lots of app with it.
THX
Any suggestions??
Can't you just untick the box for sync for that account? Also might check which is the default address.
I did that already it always goes to the gmail app right away...I did a factory reset put my primary google account([email protected]) and when i go to the gmail app its there,and i cant delete it because its not setup and i cant set it up in gmail because its hotmail adress.if i delete it from the accounts in settings then its gone in the gmail app.But I need that account for my paid apps back ups and other stuff.very annoying...but that started to happen yesterday before that i just had my gmail adress in the gmail app.It didnt automatically put my hotmail adress to the gmail app.
Did you try to make the gmail account the primary and the hotmail as the 2nd Google account and unchecked all sync?

use the Email app for your hotmail account and GMail for your gmail account
When you open Gmail, does the heading next to the gmail icon say Inbox and show one of the accounts or does it say All mail? I think All mail only shows the first or primary gmail account. Try changing the drop-down; it's a filter.
Here are some screenshots...I just want that the hotmail.com account doesnt show up in the gmail app like it used to be before,,,,but now when ever I add my hotmail.com account it always shows up in gmail.I just want to delete it from there but not from my device because I need it for other stuff.
I have 4 gmail accounts, what I do is that I forward all the incoming mails to my primary, so I only have 1 gmail account on my phone but I receive from 3. I'm pretty sure there's an option to do this from your hotmail account. Google a bit!

Thx, I Know that I can forward my email from hotmail to gmail thats no problem....but that hotmail.com account is my primary account I purchased lots of app with it and other stuff so I need it on my device....but I want to delete it from the gmail app thats all.I dont know if that is possible...
Try this setup.... use your Gmail as primary and you add your hotmail as your 2nd gmail account. Also, setup your hotmail in the email (see image) app too. set up inbox check frequency in setting to never since you don't care about that email. You can always open the email to update.

PS: This started to happen when i tried to add my hotmail.com to my gmail account (Check mail from other accounts using POP3)
But I didnt like it so I just reset everything to default...did a factory reset on the device but after that the hotmail.com account always shows up in the gmail app

[Q] Disable Gmail?

The app Gmail only allows for one gmail account, so one would have to use another email app such as Email or k-9 to get mails from various accounts. Since I don't want to pull duplicate gmail messages, I'd prefer to disable Gmail. Would the disabling cause some ill effects such as synchronization and accessibility to Google cloud? If so, any solutions?
Nope, if won't cause any issues. Just disable the gmail sync in the settings under your google account and you'll be fine
The gmail app can use as many accounts as you like, so I'm not sure what you're referring to. The gmail app is completely safe to install, as it can be installed/uninstalled right from the Play Store.
yea gmail lets you have many accounts, and the messages are separated and no not join the two emails.
just goto settings and add a gmail account, goto gmail click on your email address at the top and you can switch between the 2 there

Yes Gmail allows for multiple gmail accounts, but I don't see how I could add other accounts such as yahoo and work emails. Please correct me if this is not the case.

The Gmail app is for Gmail and "Google Apps" email accounts.
The Email app is for POP3 / IMAP4 / SMTP / and Active Sync (Exchange) accounts.
Yahoo has their own email app, but does offer IMAP4 and SMTP for premium accounts.
Check with the company IT department for ActiveSync settings for Work Exchange Email.
I have Gmail disabled and have seen NO troubles after doing so..
I gave up on the Gmail app when they removed the ability to increase the font size from within the app..

Mail app no longer spoofing Email address

I use the Mail app as I don't like the layout of the Gmail app.
I have my mail accounts set so that my Google mail account should send emails as my main ntlworld(virgin) account.
Until recently this all worked fine, but now all my emails are been delivered from my Google mail account. I have not changed any settings so it must either be a change to the gmail servers or the mail app.
Strangely using the gmail app the spoofing still works.
Anyone experienced this or know how to get things working again.
