Stock S5 email client does not support hyperlinks? - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I like the stock email client on my Galaxy S5 SM-G900A (AT&T), but when I mail a hyperlink, it arrives as plain text on any computer except my mobile device, from which the mail was sent.
Installing AquaMail fixed the problem, but this app offers everything but colored font that is useful when replying to mail.
So I'm thinking the stock email client got corrupted. Samsung's Smart Switch ssoftware does not support update or download of the stock email app. I see sites offering the particular app but also requiring access to my contacts list. Any suggestions?

[Q] Missing Emails with Exchange?

I have my Shift synced up with my work's Exchange server via the Mail app. For the most part everything works fine as I'm able to receive and send emails without much issue. However, when I try and access an email that has already been opened, I frequently find that a particular email is no longer showing up on my phone. My phone is set up to sync the past 14 days of emails and a fair amount of emails that were received well within that window sometimes won't show up. For instance, 13 of the 32 emails I received on July 5th (the last of the 14-day window) aren't on my phone but are accessible through my Outlook software of through OWA.
I tried searching online elsewhere and it seems this particular problem only affects HTC phones. Has anyone else experienced this or even better, has anyone found a solution?
I was having an issue with the HTC mail app not deleting messages from hotmail so they would keep coming back as new notifications to my phone which is apparently a known issue in the gingerbread release. To fix it I installed the stock android email app and didn't have any issues after that. Unfortunately, if you use a mail widget it will not work with any other mail app.
I used the Email.apk from the original post on the link below here and disabled notifications for the sense email app so I wouldn't get two for each email(I also may have deleted the stock email after awhile I don't remember):

My phone is rooted and at the time I was running the mikshifted g executive rom. I have no idea if you can install this .apk on a non-rooted device if you aren't rooted but you could try. You just download it and install it like any non-market app.

[Q] Email App Not Syncing

I have my work email synced to the Note 3. It's an exchange account. However, it does not sync properly. When I view an unread email on my computer, it is not marked unread on my phone, nor does the notification that came with the email go away. When I open the app, however, it all syncs up just fine and shows everything as read. Am I doing something wrong here? My notification tray just keeps piling up with email that I've already read on my computer. Thanks in advance.

I have the same problems with the stock app. It's 50% chance whether or not it syncs. I didn't have that problem with my Droid Bionic that I replaced.
Since I'm a Zimbra user, I just bought Horizon Mail from the Play Store

It's awesome for Zimbra users because you can search back as far into your email as you need to (ie-an email from last year still on your server) Also, you can check a co-workers schedule before sending meeting invites. Lastly, you can access online files in your Zimbra Briefcase.
FYI - we host with zmailcloud.com but Zimbra is open source if needed

I know this is an old thread, but....
I am a T-Mobile customer trying to help a Verizon Wireless customer get his zMailCloud email working. Everyone in the office on T-Mobile has no issues, but the one VW phone only works when on WiFi. I suspect that Verizon is blocking the ports or the IP addresses of zMailCloud.com but I'll try Horizon Mail if you think it would help. I don't see it in my Play Store and that link you provided does not work for me. Is it because only Verizon customers can get it, or is it a defunct project?

I was disappointed that VMware sold Zimbra & discontinued support for Horizon Mail - it's now gone, but was the closest app to my Zimbra browser based experience.
I now use MailWise

I'm very pleased but it has a few bugs every now & then (it is a beta app) and it does not have direct access to my Zimbra Briefcase.
I have not found any problems that appear to be Verizon related - should work over 4G or wifi.

[Q] Samsung/Verizon email app?

So i own a S3 on sprint and a Nexus 7 2013 wifi. My friend runs a S5 on verizon and he runs it stock because he doesnt really know much about android development. Unfortunately, im in Japan atm so i cant go see him to verify this my self, but he told me that the email app he uses which comes with his S5 doesn't allow Gmail accounts to be tied to it and it forces him to use Gmail for his gmail account while using the email app for his exchange accounts for work.
Is this because Verizon has its own variant of the google Email app or is it something else entirely? I know that the normal google email app should be able to run both exchange accounts and gmail accounts as i use it my self on both my S3 and my Nexus 7. Is there some way to remove this verizon email app and replace it with the google email app with out rooting if possible?
Thanks.
Edit: Hell the icons are even different, his is a Red @ sign on an envelope where as mine is a yellow one that looks like the gmail app's icon.

[Q] Galaxy S5 Exchange Email Link Removal

Hello, we use ActiveSync to push out email to our company's Galaxy S5 phones. We have our users use the built in Samsung email app. However, we are noticing that the built in email app strips some formatting from the email that our previous phones (Droid MAXX) and the new gMail app don't strip. I took some screen shots of the same email being viewed in both the gMail app and the stock email app: http://imgur.com/a/gW0GI
The stock app seems to be stripping some of the formatting like font size, boldness, color, etc. But most importantly, it is stripping the ability to click on URL links. For example, the gMail app allows the user to follow the "Tell us how we're doing:" link but the stock one does not.
Is there a setting we're missing?

Airwatch INBOX

Hi, my corporate email client on android is using airwatch inbox. is there anyway to get the mail notifications appear on my android wear watch? any advise is deeply appreciated.
thanks in advance.
Currently AirWatch Inbox does not support Android Wear notifications. I think no AirWatch app does this.
I would suggest to speak to your AirWatch admin, who is generally someone in IT, and he can raise a feature request to AirWatch.
I am also using Airwatch Inbox on my corporate phone and I briefly have paired my Gear 2 (running AW 1.3) with the phone.
Inbox produces normal notifications on the phone, hence they are showing on the watch.
But as far as I have seen, not the whole email text is showing (like it doesn with Gmail).
But there were notifications and a small text.
So yeah, it should also work for you.
Today I have bought myself a second hand Moto 360 and set it up on a new Galaxy S5 Neo (new company phone with Airwatch Inbox installed).
Without doing anything special, I already get the Airwatch notifications on my Moto 360, but only (as said before) the body of the email.
Not the complete text of the email.
