Don't know why that happens to you, when I open the email app
(not gmail) my isp pop3 email roadrunner email opens normally,
I don't get another window or screen that I need to click on.
Both my roadrunner email and gmail open pretty much
the same way without any additional screens to click on.
Perhaps you forgot to click on the "x" next to "priority senders"
so next time you open the email app it will no longer display
them on top of your screen.
Good luck,
Have a great day!

My gmail opens normal but the msn (exchange email) does this and cant find a setting to change it might delete account and try again

I don't have an exchange email account, just the default email pop3
roadrunner which is my internet service provider so I don't know how
the exchange email supposed to work.

Yea i thought mine was pop 3 sinceits a hotmail account but it shows in accounts as exchange lol but ill try to see if i cant fix this not a big deal just annoying to have to click twice to get to full email lol

Figured this out...if you set it to standared view instead of conversation view then its one click straight to the message instead of going to a preview window then clicking to read full message

googlemail

Is there anyway I can the HTC email widget to display my googlemail account as I've been trying to set it up bit without success?
I couldn't use theHTC mail widget for gmail either. I could setup hotmail no problem. Is it possible that gmail must be used through the gmail app only?
Looks like which is a shame as I prefer the HTC email layout
add account (active sync)
email address - enter your full email address (eg. [email protected])
server address "m.google.com"
domain - leave blank
username - enter your full email address (eg. [email protected])
password - your password
select SSL
hope this helps
it is possible to use the HTC widget for gmail yea.
First you have to go into gmail on your pc then settings (top right)
Then choose "Forwarding and POP/IMAP"
Then choose "Enable POP for all mail (even mail that's already been downloaded)" or "Enable POP for mail that arrives from now on" deppending on what you want.
Then hit "save changes" at the bottom of the page.
now on the desire:
put the widget down.
choose to manually enter settings.
All default settings should be fine, just enter your gmail user and pass.
Then all should be good =]
I've tried both comments above, I get to the screen asking what data I want to sync but when i click finish setup, I just get an error message saying failed to create the account, pls try again later

You want the pop3 option on your phone, not the activesync one. Just put in your google username/password. Make sure you have a data connection to the internet (3g/wifi).
I suggest using IMAP. Add the mail widget to one of the homescreens then tap to make an account. Choose pop/IMAP and you want IMAP.
Then add in your gmail (googlemail email and password. Make sure you are connected via wifi or your mobile connection and you should be all set....

Well, i said pop3 but yes, it's techinically the Other(pop3/imap) option. If you are setting up gmail then you don't have to choose manual, and therefore you don't actually select either pop3/imap, just enter your username and password...
Nope, neither of these work either
Try putting in "googlemail" instead of "gmail" where your email address and username goes.
That seemed to solve my problem.
I was putting googlemail but tried gmail and all working ok now so cheers

no problem. strange that some people need to use gmail and others need to use googlemail to get this to work
Gmail IMAP working like a charm for me.
Thinkin may stick to the gmail app now though as tend to get notified of new emails quicker then the HTC widget.
I have one gmail account through the gmail app and another gmail account through the HTC mail via ActiveSync. both push through as fast as each other imo.

Choose E-mail account to send photo

1) Take picture
2) Go to sharing screen
3) Choose e-mail photo
4) New e-mail opens up with photo attached, showing default e-mail account
5) No way to change to a different account?
Am I missing something? This is like the simplest thing. I have never seen a phone not give you the option to change which e-mail account you're sending from.
For GMail? When I click share, it takes me to the compose page in GMail, and if I tap the email account, it gives me the drop-down to select other GMail accounts.
If you mean the stock "EMail" app, I only have 1 account there, can't check.

No, the e-mail client. You never get an option to change the account after you choose e-mail. It just creates a new mail using your default account and there's no way to change it.

Weird. Guess you'll have to just have to go to the EMail app first, and attach from there.

Yeah, well I obviously already know that works. It's a disappointing oversight. I have never had a phone that wouldn't let me pick the e-mail account I was sending from and I have had a lot of android phones.

Quite annoying. The integrated EMail app is pretty decent (3rd party ones are better), but they would obviously prefer you use GMail. I just use EMail for my university account, which is an Outlook/Exchange setup.
Google always does this, they forget about multiple accounts

[Q] S-pen Hover in Gmail?

I know only limited apps can use the hover option (all samsung apps), but I saw that it can be used in the EMAIL app to show a message preview
most of us use gmail, so i was hoping it would work in Gmail too, or google would let it work in an update
any thoughts/news on this?
Doesn't work in Gmail but I think it does in the stock email client, just haven't set it up yet.

Gmail doesn't support it, the native email client that Samsung provides has that feature. Don't think Google will support it. Dont expect them to either. Its s feature only 1-2% of all of Android users will be able to take advantage. Not feasible.

Quick question.
Does the native e-mail app support sending e-mails that your main account can send from? Ie. I have hotmail/outlook and I link my school account with it so I can send e-mails from my school address via Hotmail/Outlook.
Not sure if I'm clear, but I just want to know my Nexus 7 nor my Sensation can do that, so I just wanna know if it's possible.

Yes you can set up for Hotmail account to send emails from the Email client provided by Samsung.

More specifically I was wondering if I set up Hotmail/Outlook to be able to send e-mail from another account (my .edu account in this instance) could I also send the message from that address? Sure I can reply to all e-mails with my Hotmail/Outlook address, but that's an issue if the e-mail was sent to my .edu address (and pushed to my hotmail/outlook inbox)
No push for me with the native email but it's okay with the app Hotmail. I must to choice between push and Air View ...
While it's true that few Android users will have an s pen there are some that use a mouse. How does Android react when you hover something with a mouse? If they treat the s pen hover the same as a mouse hover they'd kill 2 birds with one stone.
I'm trying to figure out how to get the s pen quick commands to work properly with the Gmail app. If I make a command to just open Gmail it works but if I try to make it so you can add a message or recipient the shortcut doesn't open anything. Kind of annoying. It must be passing the arguments wrong to the app. Even if I could get it to open a bookmark to "mailto:" with an argument for the recipient and/or message, I think it would function since if I make a bookmark to mailto and put it on the home screen it opens Gmail right up.
Too bad the quick commands set up is so very limited.
You could use exchange in the default email app for push but I read somewhere that Google stopped supporting that on Gmail accounts.
Gmail does support some other kind of push. Perhaps there is a different email app that supports that alternate push method and also plays nice with the s pen and associated tools?

I did figure out a bit of a workaround for my issue with the s pen quick command. I just set up the built in email app with my Gmail account but I unchecked "sync email" and set all the sync options to "never". I still get email pushed to me and I have Gmail set as my default mail client for if I click on an email address/send to link but if I want to use an s pen quick command to send an email to a contact, it will work. Just a slightly different interface which is no big deal. It's for send only anyway.
Also, if you want Google to support the s pen try using the "send feedback" option in the Gmail app and tell them so. I'm sure if enough of us do that they will listen.

Gmail next email buttons?

On my old Dell Streak phone when using Gmail I could go to the next email in my inbox without having to back out to my inbox email list. I could go the the next email while still in a email just by pressing a forward arrow within the email. I don't see that now, am I missing something?

[Q] How to use email direct push

How do I setup an email account (that supports it, like outlook.com) as push instead of "sync every xx minutes" ?
I just got the GPro today and am setting everything up, however I've been unable to see a way to create an outlook,com email account
and have it push.

Have you tried just using the Outlook.com App for this which has Push Notifications?
calmly ntsNuro
I've tried several times.
Outlook.com just keeps saying "Outlook has stopped" when I try to setup an account.
When I get to the permissions screen and press "OK" to accept is when I get that message.
Any idea ?
Thanks,
Fred

Have you tried to clear the App Cache and Data from the App Manager then try to add an account again? I can say that it does work once the Outlook app is setup. I get my new emails as they arrive.

Yup, no change.
The stupid stock android email app allows me to set that up as an exchange account with "push" however I have to physically open the app to get notifications of new emails and actually get the email !! What good is that. I have to open the app up ever 15 mins or whenever I want to see if I have new email
Arrrggggg
Coming from the Blackberry line trying to move to Andriod but soooo crazy.
Blackberry is a snap to set email up on.
Android is making it as difficult as possible
Fred
EDIT :
The stock app appears to work now, with push, after a phone reboot.
Reminds me Microsoft stuff lol
