I'm a HEAVY E-mail user with one Exchange account, two IMAP accounts and two GMail accounts synced to my phone. I'm running the latest version of MeanROM which I mostly enjoy but the stock mail.apk applet has been completely overlooked. I'm convinced very few users maintain EAS accounts or bother with the stock app but it's pretty key to me.
It doesn't appear the 1.22.651.3 base or Sense 4.1 did anything to address the oversized font/zoom issue with the stock mail app nor did it fix the "Display Images" button on every message with HTML content. It also broke the ability to display links but that's a different issue altogether.
Which ROMs have addressed the stock mail applet or am I stuck with +20pt fonts on an otherwise gorgeous display?
I know CM10's default email fixes the issue (and bonus--you can flip through your emails without going back to your inbox). Of course, it also forces you to input your pin every time you want to use the phone, but that's a minor bug.
Links inside of emails NEVER worked for me on this phone, even when it was bone stock.
Clickable links in an email (and text messages) on a mobile device is patented by Apple and that may be the reason why they're not working in the stock mail app.
I can't speak with authority, but non-clickable links in email may be an intentional move by HTC to avoid getting sued.

I thought the meanrom had this fix??? I've never had any issues on mine. Then again, I run the stock w/goodies rom; 1.78 to be exact. I've had nothing but good luck with my email; even with meanrom.
Mikey just put up MeanRom 3.8 and I think he might have fixed these issues. Download it and try it.

Thanks for the notice-- I tried it and found no difference to mail. Links are still disabled in plain-text formatted E-mails and the too-large font issue remains. IMAP accounts don't auto-sync either.

I feel your pain.
Unfortunately you might just have to go with CM10, if this is you use Mail on your phone this much. The one feature lacking from the CM10 version is the inability to set an update schedule. But everything else is at least comparable.
And, just like with the Sense version, there is a version that bypasses Exchange security so you don't have to use a PIN to unlock your phone every time.
+1 on CM10
Thanks for the responses. I'm surprised few ROMs seem to address this. I'm going to try Stock w/ Goodies or CM10 next... Are there any glaring issues to look out for?

Have you used K9 mail? The logo is stupid but the app is amazing. It always is on top of "best email app" lists. Give that a shot before changing ROMs just for the sake of the email app.

I thought about K-9 but that was back when it still had the Gingerbread UI. I still do.t think I should have to maintain a third party app for basic functionality that HTC borked from the factory.
Does anyone know if this has been fixed yet? Or will I just need to find a new mail app?

My Message format option for HTML or Plain text is greyed out in my exchange settings. On my Dinc running OVO community rom sense 3.0 it wasn't greyed out. I'm connecting to the same exchange 2003 server. Was the OVO mail app hacked? Is there a way to get this working on the rezound mail app? Thx

Those options are available for me and the HTML format is working. I will say that setting it up was a little different than it was for me on the Thunderbolt as it required that everything be encrypted or it would not mount my SD card. Outside of that, it has been working beautifully for me. I am not sure if that helps.

Do you know what version of exchange you are on? This didn't work prior to sense 3.0 on exchange 2003. Maybe its broken in sense 3.5..

Unfortunately, I do not know the version and I know they have been making changes over the past few weeks as my email has been up and down. I had the Thunderbolt before the Rezound (very similar phones) and I have never noticed the HTML option being greyed out. Sorry that I cannot be of more assistance.
I haven't tried it yet, but am getting ready to on my business phone, but the Amazon App Store's free app of the day today is the Enhanced Email app. It say in the description that it has support for Exchange. It is normally a $10 app so you may want to give that a try.
HTML being available supposedly depends on the version of exchange you are running. I know ours hasn't changed here, but with Nils rom on my DInc, html emails worked.... So it's something to do with the box stock version of sense I would guess.

But HTML works on my Rezound and it is running the Stock version of sense. Have you tried removing the account and the re-adding it to see if something happened during the sync?
Like I said - it has to do with the version of the exchange server IIRC. In the custom rom's i think the option was enabled. In stock rom's, it asks the exchange server for the settign. We have run a very old version of exchange for a while here now... We are doing a huge server/equipment upgrade at my workplace this weekend, so I should get the ability back anyways with any luck!!
Are any of you using this app successfully? I'm thinking this awesome app may be what's causing my phone to lock up and randomly reboot.
I've been using it for a couple months but I'm no power user of the app. I get maybe 1 e-mail a day that I either move to a folder or delete.
edit: I'm using Jokers rev 2/test3 rom
I use the app and so does my wife. We are for sure power users averaging 75-200 emails a day across 2-4 accounts. I couldn't handle how the built in app didn't visually differentiate visually what account each email is from (for us it makes a huge difference).
That said my phone does reboot more often than I like. I don't have lockups but I did have instances where I couldn't type or make calls without a reboot, but my wife never has this. I tracked it down to SwiftKey X Keyboard. I have since moved to another keyboard (Flex T9, and ICS Keyboard) and I have eliminated the typing issues.

It's not the app, once again...you have a broken photon lol =/. Good news is, you arent missing much with enhanced email, gmail app gets emails 5-10 minutes faster than enhanced email.

I don't think all three replacement phones are broken with the same exact issues. My phone has now been running for four days w/ no issues (the longest yet) after doing a factory reset and installing no apps. This leads me to believe my problems are software related. Now, I'm trying to smoke out the problematic app(s).
Yeah, I've been wondering the same thing, as my Enhanced E-Mail seems to be quite laggy sometimes, and it's almost always the first thing to show the annoying keyboard lock-up, no-dialing issue. However, I use it ALL the time so that may just be an obvious consequence ... at any rate, I'd hate to take it off the phone unless we knew for sure!

I'm glad I am not the only one who gets the keyboard lock-up, no-dialing, random reboot issue. Since I stopped using EE, I have not experienced any of these issues in over a week. In a few more days, I am going to reinstall it to see if the problems return. If they do, then EE is officially the problem in my book! The app is so awesome that I hope it is a different app causing the problems. For me, the other problem app could have been Smart Keyboard Pro. I've since switched to the A.I.Type keyboard which I like better. If no problems return after I reinstall EE then the problems would have been caused by Smart Keyboard Pro on my phone.
A new version of EE (v.1.31.2) was released today! I am going to try it and see if the random reboots return. Since uninstalling EE a few weeks ago, my phone has been running FLAWLESSLY with no reboots! Let's hope that continues after installation. (crossing fingers)
Anyone currently using EE successfully with zero random reboots?

Unfortunately K-9 Mail has weak support for exchange, I connect to two different servers (or it did a few years ago, it still has only WebDAV support) and neither worked with K-9.
On a different note, do you have any reboots with Kaiten?

I used to use Kaiten and K-9. Here are the *main* problems I had with them:
Can't change font color
Can't change font type
Let's say I have 100 emails in my inbox, I scroll down to see email #59, I switch to different app for something, when I return to K-9/Kaiten, the app reloads all of my emails; thus LOSING MY PLACE in the message list. Completely unacceptable!!!
Have these issues been addressed in the latest versions?
I've been interested in using a 3rd party email app (EE, kaiten, k9, maildroid, etc) for multiple Gmail accounts. My only question is if the 3rd party app gets push email just like the stock Gmail app.
honestly, im happy with stock e-mail as I don't type full page novels, but honestly, I have hears nothing but negative on EE!

Great! Please let us know if your phone starts experiencing random reboots after installing EE if you don't already experience them.
I haven't had any random reboots but my first gripe about EE is no threaded emails. Am I not seeing a setting in EE for threaded emails?
What other 3rd party email apps have you guys used that have threaded emails?
Does anyone here use these kind of apps? I saw a couple posts for utter and speaktoit but they were short lived. I have browsed the internet but it seems like every site recommends a different on. I don't really want to go through the process of trying/learning every one to find the best one. I might do that with 2 or 3, but I would like to narrow it down to those 2 or 3 first.
One thing I would really like to have is the ability to set reminders just by speaking to the app. Things like pick up billy from soccer at 5:00, or pay the bills on Monday and have it put those in the calendar or a to do app or whatever and then have it send me a reminder on those days or times.

Dragon used to be Vlingo I believe which i heard used to be top dog, and while I haven't heard of Dragon getting worse, most of the reviews I have read have putt varying other apps ahead of it.

I'm using the jellybean sandwich rom, which is CM9 based, so I don't think I have access to the latest version of google now. But when I was using it, I never really got it, or learned how to use it effectively. Although it was pretty awesome when it told me to leave for work early in the morning because there was a lot of traffic
there are ways to get google now on cm9 but its easier to update your rom. i've been using JamieD81's unofficial cm10.2 and just flashed cm10.2 nightly and both have been really stable so far
My only issues with Dragon is that it's a huge app once the voice files download - and it uses a ton of RAM on standby even when I don't use it to alert me regarding messages. Also it does not speak much; It's better at providing search results...

I was thinking about trying his new 4.3 pacman rom, but I always hated how JB roms always seemed to random reboot when I was sending texts. I do have google now on my CM9 rom, it's just an older version and the play store says I can't update. But does google now allow me to tell it to set a reminder and then have it remind me.
Assistant does that, although it seems to store the reminders internally rather than put them on the calendar as well.
every other jb rom i've used always had random reboots but so far with wit the new 4.2 i've had no reboots.
you can set reminders with google now 2 ways. time based or location based and it will send a notification. i like the location based because you can say remind me to buy milk when i'm near the store and will send a notification. it also doesn't store to the calendar and they dont make it very convenient to view upcoming reminders. if you want to add to calendar you can add calendar events instead of reminders.

I always thought that would be a good idea to be able to set reminders like "buy milk" and have it go off when you were by a store, didn't realize google now could do that. I'm on a 4.3 rom now, not sure if I will stay with it cause it does have some issues, but I do have google now, so maybe I should learn how to use it. How does it handle the location based reminders. Do you have to tell it what location to remind you at or will it go off any "store" that in theory sells milk?

Correct.
The rest of your question (the part not quoted above) is actually a bit off-topic for a ROM support or development thread and I prefer not to go off topic, but that being said, it seems that T-Mobile may not get the Sense 5.5 until the upcoming android 4.4 KitKat update.
Now, I ask that we all please keep speculation and questions about release dates out of these threads. Thank you

I could make it work but would have to revert back to the sense 5 lockscreen. Not a big deal for some, for others not preferable when its a sense 5.5 rom. So the best answer I can give you is I have no immediate plans.
Is it possible to incorporate the theme chooser or is it limited to cm based rims?

Problem with basic WIFI
First thank you so much for the development. This ROM is exactly what I was looking for. I just traded a G2 for the HTC One so I do not have a ton of experience with this device. I am having very inconsistent results with WIFI. WIFI calling seems to be fine; however, WIFI itself rarely gives the network layer to the phone even when I have an excellent signal. I have tried disabling WIFI calling to see if that is the culprit and the same behavior continues. Again this is a new phone to me so is this a consistent issue with the HTC One? The WIFI antenna itself is significantly better than my last phone's - so it's not an issue with a weak signal. Any help or feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Update: I've been reading more and the general consensus seems to be to do a factory reset. I did a reset before coming to this rom but I guess I'll try again. Certainly this is not related to the ROM based on what I've been reading. Thanks again for the time and effort Behold_this.

You might try rebooting your router/modem, every so often mine gets a little finicky
I've searched and cant really find anything about this, but my HTC Email app will randomly quit working. I can open it fine, but it wont let me switch between my Outlook account or my work email. Sometimes I can get it to open emails, but I cant reply to them. The send button just blinks, nothing happens. I've wiped and reloaded, cleared data and cache for the email app, nothing. Seems very odd.
Stock Group MMS not working, sends blank message
So I flashed this ROM a few days ago and it has been working superbly. Super fast and overall plain awesome.

Unfortunately this appears to be a bug in the 3.62 base as it has appeared on other ROMs built from it. I certainly can't do anything to fix it, I'm sorry to say. If I come across a workaround or any solution I will post back but for now unfortunately I would suggest you use a different app, or avoid group texts. The new Hangouts app is a great supplement to the stock messaging app now, as it supports full SMS capabilities. As for the stock app there's not anything I can do atm.
I don't know why, but my SIM contacts keep disappearing and appearing at random.

You can try the stock messaging app from the tmobile 3.24 release. It should still work. I have come across many sense 5 apps from the Android 4.3 build that work on sense 5.5/Android 4.3 builds, just haven't tried messaging.
The "hold back arrow to kill app" feature, is that a mod or part of the stock ROM? If a mod, is there a way to install it to other ROMs?

This is not related to phone's firmware, software, or hardware. This is due to T-Mobile's crappy network. This started happening to me on 4.1.2, I upgraded to 4.3 and still the same issue. Happened out of the blue, started in October and hasn't been fixed since. It was working perfectly fine since I've had the phone on launch day. Please refer to this thread, there are some Executive Response email addresses you can reach out to on Page 2...you can see some of our templates there.
This is not just affecting Android phones, but Windows phones and iPhones as well.

I have the same username on there. I was reached out to by the Executive Response team. I will be in touch with a "best of best" advanced tech specialist who will get the details from me, and report that information to the networking engineers at T-Mobile to fix this horrible, annoying issue.
I'm not sure exactly what you mean, but I installed Textra and people are telling me that they are now getting my group MMS. So I am under the impression that the issue is actually with the stock messaging app. I am not sure if there are other issues with the network in your area.

You can try the stock messaging app from the tmobile 3.24 release. It should still work. I have come across many sense 5 apps from the Android 4.3 build that work on sense 5.5/Android 4.3 builds, just haven't tried messaging.

Thanks, I'll look for it and let you know if it works.

I believe you are incorrect and that it's network related. Like I said, it was working flawlessly for 6 months and the issue started occurring out of nowhere in October, which is when it started happening for a bunch of other people on other phones, not just the HTC One. I had not updated the stock 4.1.2 OS. Please read that thread I posted above on T-Mobile's Support forums. When using other apps, it most likely uses different server configurations and doesn't necessarily travel through T-Mobile's servers. While it might be working now through a third-party app...a stock experience should never be faulty.
Hey folks
A buddy at work is looking for an email application that can handle both gmail and exchange (office365) and has the ability to turn off (at least) the notifications, but for just 1 of the two accounts, say after 5pm. Strange request, I know. If anyone knows of such an app please do let me know. Thanks a ton!!

Hey Patch,
I wanna start by thanking you a ton for your ROMS! I run your BeanStalk on my OG note and have not changed since.. I've read a lot about other ROMS but I'm so happy with my phone's performance that I just don't wanna venture into other roms. Again, thank you for making our devices stay relevant and updated!
As for the APP.. my girlfriend has an S4, and the stock Samsung email app seems to work within the parameters of your request: it runs both gmail and exchange (although Gmail isn't pushed, only pulled at a max frequency of every 15 minutes) and you can turn notifications of each individual account at will (IDK if it can be done automatically, but I could look into if you'd like).
Would this app work for your friend you think? If so, it could just be installed as an .apk and then run as system app.... couldn't it?
If you by any chance need the app to be uploaded, let me know, I'll gladly do it!

Shame on me....I have failed to provide any details.......my buddy's phone is a moto X....stock, and non root.
I think the s4 app is more than likely touch wiz and would not work? I was looking through the play store for something??

ohhhhhh, for some reason I figured it was someone running a custom ROM, LOL.
I guess I should never assume.
On the playstore I stumbled upon this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.trtf.blue
Haven't really really tried it 'cause all the accounts I use are either gmail or google apps for business, so I just use the stock gmail app.
The description seems to match everything you state is required, so I hope it helps!
Try k9. I use to use it back in the day.
