Hi all,
I am looking for a email\contacts\calendar package. My primary requirement along this front is that I need access to two Exchange acounts (each on a different Exchange server, one of which is my own).
Moxier mail, I thought, would fit the bill - but it will not do multiple accounts unfortuantely.
Touchdown, apparently, will do multiple accounts - but each account must be in its own profile, and you can only have one profile working at a time.
Any other suggestions?

Well for email I have been using K-9 Mail it is a really a pretty powerful email client that is completely free.
For calendar I use Clearsync's Android App. It is a pay for calendar service that has a focus on security but also being able to share.
Both programs can access exchange/outlook.
Moxier works very well and has exchange support.

modembug: Moxier does work well, however - I did say I required multiple account support, which it does not have.

Just wondering. I have mail coming in from
- gmail (1 account)
- hotmail (3 accounts)
- 2 other POP3/SMTP-mail-systems
I can use the default Gmail- and e-mail-app but I think there's more out there, easier, faster, handier. Looked on the Market but there isn't much ...
Votes please ...
try k9.ist a powefull and nice email app.if you like, there is a scrollable widget, calls k9 for pure mesenger.
if you are looking for a free version, you could use the default email app for all...just add the Gmail as an exhange server (m.google.com). But Touchdown or Moxier provide an excellent paid replacement. (19.99) Since i got the 3.2.2 email.apk i haven't gone back to Moxier or Touchdown.

Totally agree about the default email client app, love it.
But, mind telling us how/where you got your newer version? 3.2.2
I'm using Kaiten Email. From the same people like k9 but a better view for tablets. But not free. ;-)
I find that the default email client works great for me with exchange 2007.
I did purchase Touchdown a while back but i found myself using the built in widgets for the default email client.
I only use a google apps email and the default gmail client works great for me.
Is there a way to "select all" for batch deletion in the new email? If there is I can't find it

gmail, it has all the functions that I want, and also it's quite responsive.
Hi,
Has anyone had any problems with the default Email client on the Prime (not the Gmail one)? I seem to have a problem if I have two email addresses configured in the Email client. The first account (mine) works perfectly fine, but the second account (my wifes) seems to randomly delete emails from her mailbox on the Prime. Sometime it will delete all of the emails that it has stored in memory but other times it will only be a few.
Anyway have a similar issue like this? Its really annoying!
That is pretty strange, what kind of accounts are they? (Exchange, IMAP, etc...)
I'm running 5 different accounts, and have no problems
I also struggled with the included email app. I have 8 email accounts that I need to use, and got tired of pulling my hair out. I installed "enhanced email", and paid the $9.99 for the program, and have never looked back.
The app is super easy to set up accounts, and has all the preferences that I need for each account (check on a schedule, do not check, delete or don't delete from the mail server, etc.)
A bit pricey, but in my opinion well worth the money. If you go to the play store and search for the app, then go to the author's forum mentioned in the write up, you can get a link to a free trial download.

They are pop3 accounts from my ISP. Yesterday I deleted my wife's account and re-added it to see if that fixes anything. If it continues I will have to look at 3rd party clients.

Does anyone know way to sync multiple calendars on one MS Exchange account?
I have couple of calendars (personal and for work) on my Exchange account. After I add the exchange account from settings it only shows the "main" calendar on my account. I'm using the Samsung EMAIL app that came with the phone.
Tried searching google but no avail. So I wonder if this is possible with the default app or some other app?
i would like to know the answer as well, i am looking for the same solution. any help would be appreciated
+1. I think I could probably sync my hotmail calendar with my Gmail calendar as a workaround to get my secondary calendar to my phone, but on all my Moto droids, I always had the option to sync all of my corporate & hotmail activesync calendars - not just the primary calendar. On the GS3, I only have an option to sync the primary calendar.
+1. Just can't believe how bad the Exchange (or ActiveSync) sync support is, even with 4.1 (JellyBean).
One idea: with OWA, you can "publish" each of your calendars with an URL ending in .ics. However, I have not found an app yet that successfully subscribes to that ical-Files. With other systems, it is easily possible to use those .ics URLs...
the RAZR supposedly has a better Exchange support. Can someone port that?
one workaround for the multiple calendar sync from Exchange:
1. in Outlook Web Access (OWA) goto Calendars. Share your desired Calendar(s) to the Internet (but not publically)
2. Install the app ICSSYNC
3. feed the URL(s) from the shared-OWA-calendar to ICSSYNC.
Done. Nuff said.

This is only an option if your Exchange Admin will allow calendars to be shared. Is there another option? What amazes me is that iOS handled this without any issues for the past few years, but somehow, this has not made it in to Android yet? It makes me feel like I'm taking crazy pills.
I've got two Exchange accounts set up and working on my SGS3. Everything syncs as it should, though I had to add them twice to get them working.
JB isn't impressing me much so far - slow, buggy, drains the battery, has wifi issues, crashes without any apparent reason every now and then... but Exchange sync works (for now, at least).
Unfortunately, this is not implemented in Android: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=52270. Vote for the issue!
Another option is to load the app Touchdown by Nitrodesk. I am syncing multiple outlook calendars using it.

There is another workaround which I have not tested yet.
It is from the code.google.com bugtracker above:
----------------
Use outlook.com app.
The Outlook.com app does sync the calendars but it does nothing for tasks. I have tasks assigned to two calendars in the same account. Calendars sync but tasks do not. In fact no tasks are synced with this method. It must be just pure calendar functionality.
------------------
Give it a try guys. I am pretty sure Android 4.3 won't be better in terms of Exchange calendar and tasks support!
To sync all of the calendars in your Exchange-type account, you have to use CALDAV (what iPhone uses as a successful workaround to Microsoft's bloaty-buggy ActiveSync which is what Android uses)
CalDAV-Sync Beta is one such CALDAV enabler. It will sync all of your calendars to the default calendar app. There are other CALDAV apps, but I have not used them.
You will almost certainly have to ask your IT rep what the correct URL is for your CALDAV access.
You'll have to add shared calendars using yet another URL, which will be unique to your installation. Ask your IT rep what the URL is.
This way, you can avoid paying Microsoft for an ActiveSync license. That's $3 / seat this year. In other words, Apple provides a better sync experience by going the cheap route (and avoiding Microsoft's trash).
For Kerio email servers, the shared calendar URL is https://domainname.com/caldav/users/domainname.com/user-name/
for resource calendars it's:
https://domainname.com/caldav/users/domainname.com/resourcename
and for all of YOUR calendars:
https://domainname.com/caldav
Those are kinda standard URLs...
You can find domainname.com by looking up your MX records in DNS.
To set up an Android device the same way that iOS devices do "Sync":
1. Set up email using IMAP (not "Exchange")
2. Set up calendar sync using CALDAV
3. Set up Contact sync using CARDDAV
I'm kind of surprised that no one has created an account settings app that sets those up for you... It is certainly possible to do this in software.
What you gain by going w/ the Apple method: multiple calendar sync + multiple contact folder sync.
What you lose: Tasks, Notes, and Categories.
Things might have changed with android 4.4: http://liquidat.wordpress.com/2013/11/11/android-4-4-now-can-sync-multiple-calendars-via-activesync/
Does rooting give me any access to be able to sync multiple calendars?
multiple Exchange calendars under 4.4?
How is it with multiple Exchange calendars under 4.4?
I tried to use them on my Note2 with 4.4, but it looks like it does not work.
Even with Android 6.0, there doesn't seem to be multiple calendar support using Outlook.com/EAS. Meanwhile, iOS and, of course, Windows Phone handle them just fine without using third-party apps.
My Note 3 with cyanogenmod 12.1 / android 6.01 does sync all my exchange calendars. I used open gapps, and that came with Google Exchange Services 6.4.123892212.
I also have a brand new Huawei 7 Lite with Android 6.0. I installed Google Calendar on this one, and only the main calendar is synced. I installed the same Google Exchange Services version via APK, to no avail. Only the main calendar is visible.
What other components are there that are involved?
Sorry for the necroupping
Hello guys,
I have a common quesiton about synchronising my gmail and Exchange (work) account with my HTC Desire HD Android Version 2.3.5
At the moment I synchronise my gmail accoutn with mail, calender, tasks and phone directory.
For future use I want to synchronise with Exchange from work, even the same functions like gmail.
For gmail I use the given gmail-mail program which is implemented with Android.
For Exchange I'd like to use the "Mail" function which is also a standard tool from Android.
My question:
1. I've seen that there is the possibility to show or not show different calenders, phone books etc. When I creat the Exchange additionally to the gmail account, is there a complete new calender built with the Exchange rules or does it use my gmail calender? The same for phone directory.
I want to avoid that the two accounts will be fully mashed in the future. So, if I quit my workplace I want to delete the Exchange account and all work information will be lost but not my personal gmail account, settings and personal data like calender, phone directory etc.
2. Is the Exchange completely separated to the gmail account?
I'm a littel bit frightend to configure the Exchange accoutn because I don' want to mix up the two accounts.
I hope I wrote it in a understandable way and not redundant to an existing article.
Thanks a lot and regards
The email app and the gmail app are different, are independent one of the other. You'll have no problem, nor with the contacts.

What email client is the best on playstore?
I've used K9, but I think it's a bit outdated, I like the holo look, but it's not a deal breaker
What would you recommend for me?
I'm using outlook.com (Exchange ActiveSync), imap and pop3.
Preferably free, but I can pay also.
For over a year, I use MailDroid, I'm very happy with it. I've tried K9 but the case is not appealed to me.
using stock email apps (for hotmail only)
gmail then gmail apps
that all
For me the best combo is: Stock mail client for yahoo, hotmail other spam accounts. my official is Gmail and I use the normal Gmail app. I find the gmail app to be one of the very best.
You should try Aqua Mail (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.kman.AquaMail&feature=search_result). I used it as my primary app. Its very robust and the support is extremely good.
Why to use several clients for different accounts? Use one with all your accounts configured.
For me Emoze Push mail works a treat. It solved my POP3 account autosync problem I had with the stock client as well with K-9.
Also you have Push option for POP mails which is nice.
I'm trying to get my outlook.com account to get pushed into an email client.
But I can't get it to work, I've tried TouchDown, Moxier etc.
Any more suggestions?
