Best email app I have found so far for hotmail.
 
Ok. So I started with htc's app and it is crap. Then I forwarded all my hotmail emails to gmail and used that for a couple of days and that was crap. Gmail sucks. Then I got k9 and the interface is awesome but it continuously got errors and would not sync up with hotmail. So if I delete something on k9 it would not delete off hotmail...crap. Then I found an app called mail droid and it is far from perfect and the interface is simple but at least it syncs up with hotmail. For example, if I delete something on my phone, it deletes it off hotmail. If I mark something read on my phone it is marked read on my hotmail account.this is the best I could find so far for hotmail. If you have found a better app than this please let me know. I am not interested in finding out why you like the htc mail or why you think gmail is the best thing since sliced bread. Please keep this thread useful. Thank you.

I have been using Seven on mine and I agree both the HTC native client and K9 sucked

You do know you can go into the HTC apps settings and have it delete mail off Hotmail it's unchecked by default

Doesn't that delete the message off of the server as it downloads it?

He is right. But my problem was the reverse. If I deleted something in hotmail from my PC, it didn't get reflected on my device. So is this covered in this app you speak of?

It does not delete off server when you download it and if you delete from PC it will delete from phone on next sync. Basically it will keep the phone and Hotmail identical which is how I like it. The phone wont be identical until you do a update though now to get my custom folders :)

I have used System Seven since my WM times. Works pretty well (most of the time).
And I can also have my OWA work email (Outlook).
Believe me, I've tried the Work Email app, K-9 and others I can't remember. But I keep going back to S7.

For those who used Sprint's Mobile eMail on the WM platform... Seven is the provider for PUSH. Of course don't think we'll get the PUSH for Hotmail on our Evos but it works as advertised! Faster than any mail clients I used with Hotmail and all the changes are reflected both ends.

Also you can download the latest built. Just click on "Beta Program" on the top, then select Mobile platform. Under manufacturer select "Other" then you should see "Android" listed in model. Download that and works like a charm!

For me, all my email is filtered into folders and neither the native email client or K9 would download and sync those other folders. Thats a deal breaker for me so Seven saved me.

Wait, now you are talking about the other mail prog, right? Because that is not the way the HTC mail app works. Presently, it does not remove emails when I resync. I have not checked this new app though. Not sure how I feel about ad-ware in my email prog.

Have been trying it and it works well for the most part and actually is pushing my mail? However, no ability to mark all as read or delete multiple e mails is a big con...I get a lot of crap e mail everyday.

Re: Best email app I have found so far for hotmail.
 
So any opinions, what works better, Seven or Mail Droid?

How does Seven effect battery life?
