I'm having a strange problem with the stock email app (not the gmail one). I've set it up to download mail using pop (set to leave messages on the server) from a gmail account which it does but as soon as I read one of the messages or refresh the inbox then all the e-mails in the inbox vanish. They don't seem to exist anywhere on the device.
I've tried numerous times deleting the account, clearing the data and recreating it but the problem still exists. I'm not using the Samsung hub.
Is anyone else experiencing this?
When an email come in, Gmail won't notify me. I checked that gmail notification was on. i don't know whats the problem. Can anybody help?

I also Know nothing about this
Most likely another app interfering. Do you have any SMS notification apps or anything else that affects notification services for something installed?
I don't think so. I think facebook and ads but that about it.
Are you sure gmail is running? Go into manage applications look for gmail and see if the force stop box is greyed out. If it is gmail isn't running
Have you got gmail checked for syncing under Accounts and Settings?
I know that ie ILWT has an option to install a version of Gmail app that should have something different about notifications,it may be your problem,try to search it...

You can have a try on clearing the cache of the gmail app (Settings -> Apps -> ...)

I second this. Did you just turn notifications on in the gmail app? You need to go into android settings, accounts & sync, click on your email address, then make sure gmail is checked.

You may want to search on google for a modified gmail app with something about notification or just check synching as they said...

I haven't had this issue on the GS3, GS4 or Note 2, but it is present on the Note 3.
I have the E-Mail app setup with four accounts, two of those are standard POP3 accounts, but the other two are IMAP.
With those two, I've noticed that sometimes E-Mail do not show up, regardless of selecting "Push" or "Check every 30 Min".
Also, if I do get an E-Mail message with the IMAP account on the Note 3 and read and delete the message, it still stays in the server's inbox and will show up on my PC. -or- If I read and delete a email IMAP message on the PC, it will still will be downloaded as a new email on the Note 3.
So it seems that the E-Mail app is not syncing properly with IMAP accounts, as I've read (on other sites) that people are having this problem.
This is weird, since I've never had this issue on the GS3, GS4 or Note 2.
I hope that Samsung is aware and is working on a fix.
I am using the Root flash, but have not removed or froze any apps, as people said they had E-Mail issues after removing the magazine app.

On the Note 3 with the IMAP sync settings, it has Automatic Push, but also time-check for every 15 min, 30 min, hour.
I had it set to Automatic Push, but was not receiving any new E-Mails. Once I changed it to 30 min, it just polls the server every 30 min for new messages.
Still, the problem that reading/deleting E-Mails are not syncing between the Note 3 and my IMAP accounts.
I get home, turn my PC on and it downloads all the IMAP E-Mails that I deleted while using the Note 3.
On the other phones (GS3, GS4, Note 2) if I read and delete an IMAP E-Mail, it will remove it from the server, so then when I get to my home PC, it is not there, since it's been deleted.
So basically I'm now having to read and delete IMAP E-Mails twice, once on the Note 3 and on my PC.
Did you check the settings for processes deletes immediately. I know it prompted me for that the first time I set it up

Only when setting up a POP3 Email account, does it ask "Delete from Server: Never, When I delete from inbox". But for IMAP it doesn't have that in the settings.
Clear Data & Cache
@FAUguy
I was having some strange issues with the stock email app too, but all seems well since clearing the app data and cache as well as the system cache. In 'Application Manager', go to 'ALL' and clear data and cache in the email app. Then reboot into recovery mode and clear cache there. I haven't had any issues since doing that...except for notifications not staying persistent in the nav bar. Hope this works for ya!

Just got done doing that, and having to setup my email accounts again.
Last week I tried just removing the accounts and then setting them back up, but it didn't solve the IMAP issues.
I'll see if this works, since all the app data and cache was cleared.

My IMAP accounts emails are now showing up.
But there is still an issue with it not syncing properly with read and deleted emails.
Also, sometimes the LED notification will not activate, nor the status bar icon.

So I've noticed that even though one of my IMAP accounts does show new emails, my other IMAP account does not list new emails.
The only work-around it to go into the settings for the account and select how many messages it shows in the inbox,
such as changing it from 25 to 50, then have it check for new email and it will download. Very weird.
my note 3.. i am using 3 email account in email apps. i am receiving the mail of my default account. other 2 email account, i am not receiving the email.
Hey guys, I'm having a problem getting gmail to sync both ways in real time.
If I make a change to my inbox in my desktop web browser, it is reflected in Gmail on my phone instantly. However, if I make a change to my inbox in the Gmail mobile app, it doesn't show in my desktop web browser until I manually refresh the inbox on the Gmail mobile app. I've tried several different things including wiping the Gmail app's data, removing and adding back my email account, and looking through all of the account settings and Gmail settings. But, I can't get it working.
Does anyone have any ideas how I can fix this?
Mine has been doing the same, haven't seen a fix yet.
Soooo, I've been using the Gmail app for my work's exchange on my HTC One, but after receiving my S7 edge yesterday and attempting to setup exchange on the app, I noticed there is no option for it? The only way I can setup exchange on this phone (w/o downloading Outlook I suppose) is to set it up on Samsung's native email app... Anyone else notice this? Kind of BS if you ask me. The Gmail app is better IMO for my email needs.

Download the latest version of Exchange Services from here - http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/exchange-services/
You'll have to enable unknown sources for install. Close the Gmail app before install, reopen and add account, and you'll find Exchange access there.

I did this, and email is working, but I am getting an error on calendar. It won't sync.

Same here. I am getting the dreaded "Sync is currently experiencing problems, it will be back shortly." message when it is trying to sync the calendar. Emails have been coming through just fine the past couple of days but the calendar does not seem to be synching properly. I also get this error message when it tries to sync contacts as well but I'm not as concerned with the contacts. I've tried several workarounds that are out there on the web but I have stopped short of doing a factory reset, which I would prefer to avoid if possible. Has anyone tried the factory reset option and can confirm that it actually resolves the issue?
I am wondering if the issue may be a bug with the latest version of the Exchange Services apk that we are using (5.0.106634657).
I just decided to run my email through Gmail but use MS Active Sync for Calendar.
Has anyone had any success with the Gmail Calendar sync issue yet?
I may have to go the MS Active Sync route.
You could also set up the account in the default mail app, and turn off sync for everything but the calendar. I'm using that app to sync my exchange account, and everything works.
