Using @gmail.com addresses in mail app - LineageOS News & Discussion

I tried adding an @gmail.com account to the mail app only to find Google prevents it on the grounds that the mail app is insecure.
Has anyone else seen this?

Their is one solution but it works only half of the time. You may try it.
1. disable wifi and you must have cellular data active.
2. Enter your account details in Email app.
3. Select manual setup, select Imap, under incoming server select imap.mail.yahoo.com, as I mentioned it works sometime so may be you will get a message user name password can not be verified in that case you can try after sometime, untill you get success.
4. outgoing server smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com
I can confirm this workaround does work I am using it like this with two of my yahoo account.

you can try the Email client in Samsung Apps, it comes with Yahoo mail support.

[Q] Using nultiples identities on Email.apk

Hi,
I have configured my Gmail account to send emails using multiple identities.
When I use Gmail (on Android), I can choose the email address will appear in the "From", but i don't known howto do that using the standard Email application from Samsung.
Is it possible? nope?
None uses Gmail multiple identities with standard Samsung Email app?
thx
When I press the email address in the from field I can change my identity from there... This is using the native email client.

please,
have you configured only a account or more than one?
you can change the sender between your gmail defined identities or you can select any identity?
thx
Using 2 gmail and 1 hotmail account. I can switch identities between all 3 just by pressing the email address in the from field.

ok, is not my case...
i have ONE Gmail address, and i have configured ALL my satelite address that are redirected to my principal, and i have defined the identities in my gmail account (google).
with gmail is possible to answer the messages using any of these identities (in ONE Gmail address). in fact, gmail answer by default using the real receiver identity and no my principal identity.
with Email this only works if my identities are accounts
I see, I have them all set up as individual accounts in the native email client. Perhaps that's why it works for me.

Two Google accounts??delete from gmail app

Hi
I have 2 google accounts on my device one is with [email protected] and the other [email protected] first i use for purchases back
ups etc...and the second is just private I keep IT junk free.so when ever I go to the gmail app to check for emails its shows the hotmail.com account too....but i cant sync emails or anything from it so every time I need to switch back to the gmail.com account..Is there any way that i can delete that hotmail.com account from the gmail app, but not from the whole device because i use it for apps and stuff and I purchased lots of app with it.
THX
Any suggestions??
Can't you just untick the box for sync for that account? Also might check which is the default address.
I did that already it always goes to the gmail app right away...I did a factory reset put my primary google account([email protected]) and when i go to the gmail app its there,and i cant delete it because its not setup and i cant set it up in gmail because its hotmail adress.if i delete it from the accounts in settings then its gone in the gmail app.But I need that account for my paid apps back ups and other stuff.very annoying...but that started to happen yesterday before that i just had my gmail adress in the gmail app.It didnt automatically put my hotmail adress to the gmail app.
Did you try to make the gmail account the primary and the hotmail as the 2nd Google account and unchecked all sync?

use the Email app for your hotmail account and GMail for your gmail account
When you open Gmail, does the heading next to the gmail icon say Inbox and show one of the accounts or does it say All mail? I think All mail only shows the first or primary gmail account. Try changing the drop-down; it's a filter.
Here are some screenshots...I just want that the hotmail.com account doesnt show up in the gmail app like it used to be before,,,,but now when ever I add my hotmail.com account it always shows up in gmail.I just want to delete it from there but not from my device because I need it for other stuff.
I have 4 gmail accounts, what I do is that I forward all the incoming mails to my primary, so I only have 1 gmail account on my phone but I receive from 3. I'm pretty sure there's an option to do this from your hotmail account. Google a bit!

Thx, I Know that I can forward my email from hotmail to gmail thats no problem....but that hotmail.com account is my primary account I purchased lots of app with it and other stuff so I need it on my device....but I want to delete it from the gmail app thats all.I dont know if that is possible...
Try this setup.... use your Gmail as primary and you add your hotmail as your 2nd gmail account. Also, setup your hotmail in the email (see image) app too. set up inbox check frequency in setting to never since you don't care about that email. You can always open the email to update.

PS: This started to happen when i tried to add my hotmail.com to my gmail account (Check mail from other accounts using POP3)
But I didnt like it so I just reset everything to default...did a factory reset on the device but after that the hotmail.com account always shows up in the gmail app

Mail app no longer spoofing Email address

I use the Mail app as I don't like the layout of the Gmail app.
I have my mail accounts set so that my Google mail account should send emails as my main ntlworld(virgin) account.
Until recently this all worked fine, but now all my emails are been delivered from my Google mail account. I have not changed any settings so it must either be a change to the gmail servers or the mail app.
Strangely using the gmail app the spoofing still works.
Anyone experienced this or know how to get things working again.
