For those interested in original client available in "pure" Android 2.1 - here it is!
For me it's much more better than the HTC's one.
PS. God give us root to get rid of all that crappy HTC bloatware
What are the advantages of the original email app over HTC's version?
I like its look and feel,htc's one is too glossy.The same applies to music app.
Just try it yourself,it can be installed in parallel with htc one.

Is there anyway to get the app to delete the original emails off the server?
THANKS!!! it is awsome! Finnaly my emailsending works accross IMAP and TLS. With built in HTC email client it not works.
Np
As for deleting emails - don't know if you're talking about pop or imap. In imap you have to delete mail from trash to get rid of them.
Didn't tested this app with pop3, so don't know if tere is an option to "delete from server after download". But I think that there could be no such option to prevent user from mistakes.
But .... it's source is available via source.android.com... and it can be tuned, or feature can be requested.
Thanks, sorted my mail sending across SSL.
The stock HTC mail app is eating up the memory. After 3 days, I had 30 MB of mail data, and erasing all Accounts did not helped. The 30 MB was still there, so I had to make a Factory Reset. Thanks for this app!!
Thanks for this.
Does this app allow searching of emails, in particular Exchange?
I noticed, or haven't found, the search feature for the HTC Mail app :/
This works great on Legend, nice to see a bit of stock Eclair.

I would love to have this feature! I understand WinMob does this on exchange 2007...
I think I overlooked the obvious, pressing the search button!
Didn't give me results for my search, going to look into the number of emails the phone has access to, either copied to phone or on the server. I suspect the string I searched for was too far in the past.
[edit] Shame, only searches sender names and subject line :/
So, i installed this on my incredible and configured it to work with my office exchange account... set it up as push, and it never updated... went into the sync settings and it was in there, but was showing that it wasn't set to auto sync and i couldn't get it to sync from there.. originally when i first set it up, it was able to connect and download my past emails, but nothing after that.. I know i'm in the desire section of the site, so it may just be that ti's not gunna work on my Incredible right now, but i was wondering if root is required to use this?

don't know if i understood you correctly but i can search my exchange 2007 mail from my phone...
just open htc mail app and than press the hardware search button...type what you want to search and that's it...
thanks alot, this is so much better than sense's version, actually so much stock android 2.2 stuff is better than sense i'm thinking of rooting for 2.2
This force closes when I have an email with an attachment in my inbox, really annoying.
Does it require root?
Does this application require root access or can I install it even if the phone is unrooted? Another question -- Does this get me the combined inbox?

v03
HTC Sense Support

[=--- Original Post ---=]
Hey Everyone,
I'm about to release this into the Market, but wanted some preliminary input. I've noticed a lot of people in forums requesting a 1x1 unread e-mail widget for those running HTC Sense and the included mail application. I've completed a widget that does this, though unfortunately it requires Root because it must open some of the HTC Sense databases. It shows a compiled total of all unread mail in all inboxes. When clicked, it opens the HTC Mail reader to it's last state.
[[ To be clear, this works with ALL E-mail accounts, Exchange, POP, IMAP, etc. Not just GMail like many of the other widgets out there now. ]]
I was originally planning to make the widget support a single inbox at a time, so you could run a different instance of the widget with a different icon for each of your mail accounts, but after going through the HTC dex files, I'm not sure how I could have it call up a specific mail account when clicked on.
Also, I've yet to determine how HTC signals their own widget to update the counts. Until I figure that out, it currently updates whenever the screen is turned on.
Thoughts, input, suggestions?
Thanks.
I've actually created a version to work with the stock email reader as well.
I currently have an "Gmail Unread Count" or something widget on Sense which does exactly this, very customizable (choose what icon etc) and I don't have root access.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this only grabs the "Gmail" unread counts, not other accounts you're syncing through the phone, right?

Mind if I test it ?
I would be interested in this too.
Any chance you could also add an option to only make it count unread mail for a certain label. And then have multiple instances of the widget so it's easy to monitor said labels.
Would happily test and pay for it as it is a feature many people have been yearning for.

This is a great idea. I'll look into this. Thanks!
Testing shouldn't be necessary, I've got a few different phones I'm trying it out on. I'll throw it up in the market soon, and put a post here when it's there.
You're a star! Thanks so much

that qould be great. I'm also very interested in this widget
Will this be available on additional launchers instead of just Sense? I am using an Evo but have Launcher Pro as my default home. I do miss the count on the Sense widget, but not enough to switch back.

Does Launcher Pro have it's own email client? This Widget is based specifically on the client. For instance, I'm running Sense, but have installed the stock vanilla 2.2 email client through an APK. I then run the Vanilla version of the widget for the stock email client, OR I can run the Sense version for the HTC client.
Thanks.

Also very interested in this. Have found that Androids lack of good email widgets and apps to be very disappointing. Gmail Unread Count is good but is very tempremental about how many accounts it can handle. Cuurentlt I'm rocking 3 Gmail accounts & a MS Exchange account. This app would be greatly appreciated

How do you have them all set up? 1 in the Gmail app, 2 in IMAP? All in one? etc. I may want you to do a test run for me before I release if you don't mind, as that's a pretty extreme case.
Thanks!

Yeah.
Gmail Unread App - use this for my main personal Gmail account
HTC Stock Email App - use this for the other 2 Gmail accounts (1 business / 1 forums/eBay) + my current MS Exchange account
It's cumbersome to say the least. The HTC Stock Email app is okay but to be honest it's slow, not very user-friendly & looks crap. I thought I might be able to split the accounts easily with Gmail Unread app but I find that really is very difficult to add an 2nd account not to mind a 3rd. Sometimes it'll work but more often than not - it won't.

Unfortunately root is required for this widget to read HTC's mail database. If you're willing to root, I haven't had a Sense 2.1 tester yet.
Thanks.
I just wanted to give everyone an update since it's been a while (I was traveling last week, and will be again next week). I'm applying for the Market and adding in code for Licensing and Versioning now. The widget will be released very soon after that, and has been renamed 1x1 Ultimate Unread Widget. I will post again with a market link when it's out.
If there are any other mail readers people would like added for phase 2, such as K9, or any other features, such as icon switching, or changing the update frequency, let me know. The more requests (public, no PM please) for an item, the higher I will place it in the list.
Thanks again for the interest.
Forgive me if this topic has been raised before -- I searched and didn't see anything.
I am seeing two issues with my Epic relating to e-mail I haven't seen raised.
1. Generic e-mail client doesn't sync reliably. It ran reliably for a day or two, but has stopped polling, and now the only way I can get the accounts in it to update is to go into the client and open them.
2. I cannot seem to get more than 2 gmail accounts added to the gmail client. I have three google accounts, and I had to set up my third one in the generic client after repeated attempts to add it to the gmail client resulted in server connection fails.
Anyone else seeing this? Is it possible I have a defective phone or something I did during the course of rooting (noobnl's one-click v 2.2.9) broke some functionality? Is it possible that the service responsible for the client's polling activity got broken?
Thanks in advance.
My email has been updating automatically fine. I've only had my Epic for a little over two weeks, though. I don't have multiple Gmail accounts so can't say. Also, I'm not rooted yet ( I've been waiting for the 2.2 upgrade). I'm not crazy about everything in the generic client but it does seem to work very well.
I thought I was having the same issue as OP, but I found that I guess I accidentally switched automatic updates off in the settings.
I have had my Epic since it launched and yes this has been an issue for me. I thought maybe I had something set wrong but I don't. I actually check my Yahoo acct through the browser now. It doesn't really bother me to much though so I deal with it. Facebook for Android is the same way usually too.

This is a common issue if you search around.
I've given up on the stock email app and just use K9 mail. Works perfectly. Has a few more options than the stock app too, although like a lot of open-source apps, maybe too many. I still haven't gotten all the fonts to look the way I want. But it's functional and doesn't give me any problems with syncing. An email app that won't tell me when I have new email is useless to me, and the stock app would only do that for maybe a day unless I rebooted. K9 always notifies me of email immediately.
I'm having a problem of my own. I just tried to send an attachment in the stock email app but I get a FC when I hit attach. In the gmail app however it works, gives me the option of gallery or astro. Could the FC in the email app occuring because I uninstalled the myfiles app and it defaults to it?

Exactly the same problem. Stock email client works for a while then just quits.
But anyway, thanks for the tip re K-9 mail. Just installed it and will give it a try. It is indeed considerably more complimicated and will probably take some fiddling to get everything the way I want it, but that's OK -- I guess if I wanted simple but uncofigurable functionality I'd have a feature phone or an iPhone.
Seems like the FB app does the same thing. Anyone have a suggestion for a good 3d-party FB client?
Oh, and does anyone else have more than 2 accounts in gmail?
reboot will fix it for a short period
same problem here... worked for two weeks and now only syncs if manually. Rebooting the phone gets it going again... for a few more days and then it will no longer sync again!
So I'm new having just moved to Android from WM, and have configured all my accounts on the phone (that's 7 email accounts under Accounts), now my problem is simple I see no way to actual see existing messages in the inbox's, when I get a mail it shows up in notifications, but other than the gmail accounts (all 5 of which are available from the gmail app if separately), getting to the yahoo, msn or aol accounts (mostly used of IM, but mail does go to them some times) is just not easy. I really expected more from Android when it comes to email accounts. I've seen programs like Enhanced Email or Pure Messenger in the market place, but before I went and sent money, I thought I'd ask if there was something I'm missing built in or free?
On the same note I'm finding the Widgets that are provided for Google voice, are ugly and others say for email are simply not present at all. All of this is making me miss my HTC Sense interface on WM. However there I'd expect solutions for all of these issue, which is what I'm looking for.
Thanks,
ERIC
You'll find all your emails in the messaging app

I know the app you are suggesting, but so far it always says no emails, yet the gmail app shows well over a hundred, so as far as I can tell its not working, also like to crash on me, so I do not think it is a solution.

You can try K9-Mail for an e-mail client. Works amazing for me.

have you configured the email accounts in their respective sections in MESSAGING app as has already been suggested? the app works fine here, so if you are having problems, factory reset and try again. i dont really understand what the problem is. your question originally was how to access them, then when told how to access them you say it's not working. if its not working, start there and figure out WHY its not working......THAT would be your problem, wouldnt it?
not trying to be hostile or funny here, but if you love HTC Sense, you do know there are plenty of androids running HTC sense right?
or you can wait for a HTC Sense ROM
I have five accounts running with no problem. Try a factory reset like someone else suggested.

By default its only set to sync the past 3 days of mail. Go into account settings from the messaging app and bump it up to 30 days. 30 days is the max which is a bummer. On my past win mobile you could tell it to sync all mail.

Hey all,
So which is the best email app to use on a P8, my son has purchased one of these phones now but has Gmail (3 accounts), Outlook, AOL and want an app that will run all his emails accounts in 1 app. As I only have a Gmail account I use the stock app in Lollipop but he's running Marshmallow so thats no good as it doesn't work.
Cheers
hi,
I use AquaMail, with 4 accounts, 2 Gmail and 2 free internet and it is exelent. try it : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.kman.AquaMail

Thanks, he installed Aquamail and added all his accounts, even though it was in protected app's when the phone went into standby it didn't give him any notifications when emails arrived, he didn't know he had any emails until he picked up his phone to access it.
So whats the deal? I thought it was only stock gmail that didn't work but it seems when the phone goes into standby it does nothing, is there anyway to turn off the "doze" mode?

Hey, install latest B321 Marshmallow, its fixed in there. :good:
But the phone is not rooted and from what I understand B321 can only be installed on a rooted phone???
So is the gmail flaw fixed on B321 then or does it still not give notifications when in standby?
I use Mail.ru and it serve me well.
Just make sure to protect it from going off in Phone Menager-protected apps.
