need help with Email.....

[knowledge_6]

Okay, So i am coming from a blackberry 9900.. i Love my blackberry, and since i got my work phone upgraded to a 9900, i thought i would sell my personal 9900 and get a Samsung Galaxy S2 LTE..

while i am waiting for it to come my biggest concern is about how android handles email..

on my 9900 i login to BIS and i can add email accounts from anywhere (hotmail, yahoo, gmail etc).

then i get an icon for EACH email account and notifications for each separately.. also i have unified INBOX that shows everything..

I do not use gmail AT ALL... i will only create one to activate my phone..

is there a way i can have the same setup and have the same push notifications i do on my blackberry?

With gmail you can add additional accounts from other sources. I don't think the sorting is as sofisticated, however, there are third party apps, such as K9 mail, that do a better job handling multiple accounts.

I highly recommend checking out "Enhanced Email" in the market. I think you'll find it includes most, if not all the features you mentioned. I especially like that I can set the unified Inbox to display only the unread messages from each of my 3 email accounts. Good luck.

Yahoo Mail Setup.....

To setup your device mail client, you need to create an app password on Yahoo, in your account Info section (my mobile is a LG3) .
Sign into Yahoo Mail as you normally do on a Desktop Computer (can not do on a mobile device). Go to (top right). Help then Account Info . Scroll down to Sign- In and Security , Setup your second sign-in verification, click onto. It will bring you back to sign into Mail, go on and sign in, it then will bring you to Set up your sign-in verification. Go down to App passwords. Click onto Generate app password. It will generate your password that you then use as your password on your mobile device mail client. You will only use this password this one time . When entering your app password on your device, all you do is key in your ID/name and the app password, then click next. You then name it and next/done.

Hope this helps! It took me a while to find this info on Yahoo, hopefully I save you the trouble. Good luck!!

if there is a way to contact me on here you can do, to get link- new here so not sure..lol
