Are you trying connect as an exchange account? Or pop3/imap?

Gmail app auto BCC

Hey guys,
Loving this device everyday more and more!!!
Anyway, does anyone have any method of allowing the stock ICS Gmail app to auto bcc self on all outgoing emails?
I know there are multiple discussions but no one seems to provide a solid solution that's good enough...

How?: Email app - combined view by default

I have 2 emails in the stock email app and want the app to open the combined view by default. Is this possible?
Also, how do I change the colours for each email?

So this isn't possible?

I ditched the stock email app and I'm using k9 email, it's a much better app in my opinion, it will do what you need!

Did you simply enter your email address and password or you did manual setup?

University of Phoenix uses Google servers so you add it like a Gmail account just change the at Gmail to at phoenix. Edu

For my university I did manual set up because you have to put the custom incoming and outgoing servers. If you don't know these you can find out from your universities IT department

I'm from Temple and they use a form of Gmail so it works fine.

If you want help. I can help you say it up. Just post what school you go to and I'll look on their site for the appropriate server instructions.

Pm me and I'll help get the setting for you

Like Warbuff said you usually need all that info from your IT department and then maybe your device isnt even allowed to access their server.
For me the other alternative I use, because I definitely dont want IT touching my device, is I use the web browser email version. Your school may have that, IT would know that address as well. Ex: exchange.<school name>.edu

MailDroid is for me the best I've tried. Supports filter creation.
