I realise this is not a new topic but I thought they might have solved it by the this time. The new Note email is nice with the split screen but I need the option to read EML attachments!
Yes the k9 and other clients through the market work but none have a neat split screen as the default client.
Anyone, just a hint of a cure.

Hey. I'm a new owner of a tytn, and everything has been going great with the learning curve. his forum sure has helped! But right now, I have a question that i cross posted in another forum in the hopes that someone can help me....
I wanted to download an attachment or two I sent myself on gmail. I connected to the gmail account via their web interface, and one was a cab file, and one was a zip file. I can see the e-mail fine, and the attchment appears as a link. However, when I right click on the attachment, I do not get the option to download the attachment. It gives me the menu-
select all text
back
refresh page
favorites
add to favorites
full screen
If I click on anything on a webpage, it gives me the option to save that thing. In fact, if I right click on the paperclip indicating that attachment instead of the link, it gives me the option of saving the picture of the paperclip.
Any ideas? is it a limitation of Gmail? Will I need to get push e-mail to be able to get attachments effectively? Or perhaps really use the e-mail functions instead of web based e-mail?
don't know about google but I can download attachments from yahoo mail or hotmail (standard and mobile versions) just fine, could be a google limitation but I believe you can download attachments from google using a third party program like flexmail.
for the record, I got an answer on HoFo... and I quote:
"neo, he's not using Mobile Outlook, he seems to be using Mobile IE to do it.
Blue Puma - what you need to do is enter in the HTML version of Google into the address bar. Go to Gmail on your desktop and click HTML and then email yourself that link. That should work.
Actually, to avoid confusion, here's a link that might work:
http://mail.google.com/mail/h/m6bqty081ipc/?"
it worked like clockwork.
Hi all,
I wondered if anyone had found the following problem rather irritating?
I have the HTC mail widget on my home screen which works great but I would like it to mark mail as read when it is viewed on there rather than having to open all mails individually. Is this possible, and if not is there another way to quickly mark multiple messages as read without deleting?
Cheers,
Michael

I started this thread a while ago: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=567100
as far as I know there is still now option to mark all mail as read, so it was easier to switch gmail instead. I suggest you do the same as Gmail app is so much better.
Hello,
First post here - what a great resource this is and what a great device the HD2 is. One small frustration is that when I read email in the HTC software then it isn't marked as read until I open it in the standard windows email viewer. Is there a way to make this happen?
Thanks,
James
Yeah this is annoying me too!
Alternatively - is there a way of configuring the HD2 so when the email icon is pressed then it launches the underlying Outlook tool rather than the HTC one. I another route to this end would be to create a shortcut to Outlook on the home page.
Thanks,
James
I dont use outlook to sync my Hd2. So it would be nice with something which resolved this...
Yeah, this bugs me too.
What's the point in HTC going to all those lengths to make a really nice email tab where you can read incoming messages without opening the outlook browser, and then not have a way of marking the messages as read.
It should either be an automatic thing, where viewing an email on the tab marks it as read, or there should be a "mark as read" option in the menu. (God forbid anyone wants a "delete" menu option too!)
A solution to this would be very welcome.

this was bugging me too - happily there is a simple solution which the clever folks here created
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=510621&highlight=mark+all+as+read
just installed it - i now have "mark all as read" as an option in the inbox menu... one of my HD2 niggles just vanished....
edit - just noticed this also adds a "delete all" function too.... with power comes great responsibility.... happily it does ask you to confirm before deleting your entire inbox...
this is a better link to the .cab which fixes it

Thank you!
I did a search on Google as well as this forum, but haven't found anyone who is also annoyed by this.
Is it me, or does new and read emails look almost the same on the Galaxy Tab email client? Read emails are dark gray, and new emails are black. Even differentiating them by making new ones bold would be better. Right now, I'm having a hard time telling them apart.
Anyone else having this problem? I also haven't found a way to change colors or making new emails bold.
I use the Tab email client quite a lot for both personal aand company email. I don't have an issue differentiating between read and unread email. I always have my screen brightness set to auto. Perhaps that would help.
On A500 email client how select all messages without select one by one ? For example delete all message...
Everybody is like me and ask for the same thing or have you make one choice with an other email client ? And Wich one ?
This is also driving me crazy, as my Android phone has the HTC SenseUI email app, which is a very different (better) experience and has a select all feature. I can tolerate not having select all for managing my daily emails, but the real problem/inconvenience comes when I remember to purge all the accumulated messages in the Trash folder. Having to select each check box one at a time for hundreds of messages is horrible. I don't know why Google doesn't have select all in the stock email or the Gmail apps.
That being said, K-9 Mail (free via the Market) has this feature and a lot more. The only drawback is that is clearly designed for smaller phone screens and not tablets, but you can configure the fonts and layout to work better on a tablet.
Hope this helps.
