non stock text messaging and email app

[skinneejay]

For those of you who have been using Android for a while. Can you recommend a better text and email app. I just feel like these stock apps have nothing going for them.

I use handcent. i think most do.

Oh as for emial, I use Gmail.

Handcent for SMS

as far as email, I think most just stick with stock Gmail app.

If the stock email client is not robust enough for your needs, you can try K9 Mail, free from the Market.
As for SMS, Chomps is also a popular choice for many, in addition to Handcent and GoSMS.

how can you stop the email message grouping on the gmail app? I stopped it on the web but it still shows on my phone?

That's what I was going to recommend. I'm using Chomp right now, but have used Handcent and Go and feel they are all just as good.

Handcent is the way to go

I love chompsms, but it has ads.

Go SMS is my second choice.
