    Is there any email app for multiple email addresses? I have 3 work email addresses and a personal email address. Is there a single android email app that can integrate all my emails into one inbox and allow me to send emails from whichever email I need. Im using a Samsung galaxy S2

    Add them all to Gmail. Then you can make filters for an amazing experience

    K-9
    Since I found it I never looked for anything else. I have 3 separate IMAP/POP3 accounts configured right now.

    And another +1 for K9

    No trees were harmed in the posting of this message, however a large number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.

    Ye K9 folks ever consider Gmail? It's great to have all emails in one place. If you're already using Android you're obviously using Gmail.

    I must admit I was very iffy at first, it took a lot of persuading from a friend to do it but I'm very glad I did it now. I now just use Gmail for all my mail (where before this I did use K9, Gmail and Thunderbird on phone, pc and laptop). I can login on any pc if I want to and I don't have to go to the bother of setting anything up if I change pc or phone. You have the option of sending from any of the pop/imap email addresses added, without the hassle of setting up outgoing smtp. You can also add signatures to each email address that attaches no matter what device I send email from.

    A few weeks after I moved to Gmail I spent a while and created some filters and colour coded flags. It's now organised well beyond the possibilities of any email app.

    I have three gmail accounts - two filtered to forward to the third (work, personal, sports club)

    Is there any way I can select which account to send from on android, or would i need to log out of main account and back into which ever one I want to use.

    You add them under accounts & sync then in the main gmail app you can select which you want to send from by pressing the address field in the compose section

    Yes, I also have 3 Gmails (personal, work & anonymous), when sending an email I have the option of which Gmail (or other pop3 emails I've added) to send from in the dropdown. You have to add the other emails as "send mail as" in accounts and import in Gmail (on pc not in app)

    I have my main email account on my own (rented) serwer - I don't see a reason to use gmail. The gmail account that I was forced to open to use the phone is not used for anything else except accessing android market.

    I use google apps on my own domain. Much easier to manage + the gmail app is second to none(except for pince to zoom but I can count on 1 hand the amount of times that could have been handy)

    Forced to open? Nobody forced you to open anything, Google services are opt in, you didn't have to accept. Didn't you know, Android is all about Google services, Gmail, Google calendar, Google documents etc it's a complete package. You could have opted out and used the Amazon market, but hold on, you need to register there too. Maybe you should have got a fruit Phone, but wait a minute, you need to register for that also.

    Hmm, I'm quite sure I had to have a gmail account to start the phone and I had no idea about it when I clicked "buy" on meteor page, but I'm open to corrections on that.

    I hope to kiss android goodbye as soon as Tizen hits "stable & usable".

    P.S. if you see me with a fruit phone it means that it's not me ;)

    A Google account is not required to use an Android phone.
