I use gmail as my default mail app on my phone. I have it set up to get email from two of my other email accounts and push it to my phone.
Under the contacts on my phone it has a part under each contact to view email conversations with them.
The only problem is that it will only show email from the mail program and it will not show the email from the gmail app. Is there a way to change this to show my gmail emails?
Also is there a way to compose new email in gmail on the hero using a certain email address for its reply. So I can use gmail to collect my email from all my accounts but if I want to send an email from a certain account and not my gmail, can I do that?
Hi,
I am using the standard gmail app that was on the wildfire.
I only get notifications when i receive new mail in inbox and not in folders.
Does anybody now an app or widget that sends notifications for new mail in folders.
thanks
How do I get all of my contacts to show up in the default contact app? Usually there are options in the Contact app settings but on the Atrix none of my other contact groups show up. Help?
Hi Folks,
I have been using an iPhone 3G till now and just made the switch to Android. Just received my Atrix today and spent time getting familiar with Android/Motoblur and setting things up.
Now, I am really confused between these three apps
1. Email
2. Messaging
3. Gmail
From the time I've spend playing around, I know that Email and Messaging look pretty much the same, except that messaging also has text messages. So why do we have these two separate apps? Then there is Gmail. If I have a gmail account, should I add it to the Motoblur accounts or set it up with the Gmail app? Why are there so many overlapping apps?
Basically all I want is a single app where I can check all my emails from different accounts just like iPhone's native email app.
Please be easy on me as I am an android newbie Thanks in advance!
- Gmail is Google's gmail app that supports multiple gmail accounts
- Email is Moto's email app that supports different types of email accounts (integrated with MotoBlur)
- Messaging is Moto's text and MMS app

"Messaging" actually integrates texts, GMail, and the MotoBlur Email client. There is also a "Text Messaging" app that just handles texts. If you use the "Messaging" widget, you can even get FB messages on it.
Oops, I stand corrected. Was thinking about the captivate's Messaging.

To answer your other question, if you want to use the Moto "Messaging" with Universal Inbox then all you have to do is go to Accounts and select Google at the bottom and deselect "Sync Email" and then just setup your Gmail through Moto's Email client and you can get all your emails (just once) in the universal inbox. If you use both then you will receive redundant notifications for your Gmail.
For some reason not all of my contacts are showing up in my default mail app but they are showing up in the contacts app. Is there an extra step I need to take to get them all synced? Fyi, the only contacts database I am using is through Google.
