1. K9 Android Email
Client App:
Handshake
with K9:
At
the first glimpse only, you will find it very useful. But I am sure that after
using it for some time you will definitely appreciate it. K-9 Mail is a
community-developed project. So there is a group of people dedicated to improve
the app and they are open to send bug reports and suggestions.
From
starting it is the most used android email client app for android smartphones.
It is diverse in terms of features and fulfills every user needs. Till now this app has launched many versions
to satisfy people's needs. Its latest version is 4.409 which much more efficient
with few bugs.
Features
of K9:
- It includes auto configuration for Fast Mailing.
- It has option to translate among few languages -French, Korean, and Polish etc.
- For narrow android devices the account display is tightened up.
- It supports POP3, IMAP and Exchange 2003/2007 protocols.
- A unified inbox
- Automatically detect spam messages.
- You can archive and mark emails as important, spam and star..
- All IMAP messages are pushed to your smartphone as it supports IMAP IDLE.
- You can assign folders on your account to the archive, sent, spam, drafts, and trash features.
- You can set synchronize limits to save your phone's battery and space.
- Highly customizable, you can modify the interface by changing account colors and removing buttons
- Batch manages messages with a swipe.
- Using the Recreate data facility you can completely remove your old profile and message stored on your device not on the server. Now you are able to create brand new profile.
Where K9
Excels:
♠ Account setup is really
easy (it automatically detects Gmail settings) and so you can run instantly.
♠ It’s
Interface is designed such that you can maximum emails at a time without
scrolling it down.
♠ Inbox
place each email individually (It will not group the email from same address
into conversations) But you
can easily go from one email to the next in the conversation with one button.
♠ It is
highly customizable,
you can modify which folders match up with which functions, set the limit how
much of a folder K-9 downloads to your device. You can change the color of
light that to be flashed when you receive a notification.
Where K9
Falls Short:
♠ It display message slowly.
♠ You can't search for
messages on the server. Only the messages actually downloaded by the k9 app
will be searched. So here we are using a big feature of android email client.
♠ This app doesn't seem to have a "conversation"
view. It will not put the threaded messages of same address together, but
display them individually.
Conclusion
|K9 email client app:
If
you are having Gmail address then you should go for Gmail email client app. No
one can beat it for Gmail address. But
if you are having email address other than Gmail like (yahoo, outlook, Hotmail,
etc.), then we will recommend you K9 email client app. It also works well with
Gmail accounts.

Views|K9 Android Email client App:
- Beautiful app. The quiet time is a brilliant idea but sometimes doesn't work. I want to suggest that this feature should have an option that which day quiet should work and which day it should not. Like for Sundays, it will better to do quiet time.
- The latest version is better but still some things to be fixed. Overall I like K9 email, way better than the stock. Some settings don't seem to work: turning off the unread message count, turning on the search count, and turning off the multi-select box all don't take effect.
- My favorite email client app. It’s not perfect but it has grown on me. Google's stock email client is like all other Google apps - TOTAL JUNK! New your user interface is top notch.
- Great app, I was experiencing slowness after big update and tried to clear down mails but it kept crashing. Thankfully developers released a fix and recreating account worked and no more slowness.

It
is app from Google. So you know the popularity and usefulness of Google
products. It is built on the concept that email can be more intuitive,
efficient, useful and fun. It is

very well found in this app.

easily navigate through those messages.
♠ It’s Interface is very
clean, easy to navigate, and pleasant to look at.
♠ You can
attach the files, which is the major feature you are getting in this app only.
Where
Gmail Falls Short:

contain the features like Quiet Time*. Only contain usual features, no new.
Conclusion

If
you are Gmail account it is the best email client app for you. It is very fast in opening and downloading
messages. But if you are having multiple accounts like Gmail, yahoo, Hotmail, etc.

User
Views |Gmail Android Email client App:
- The design and ideas are awesome. Whenever i get a reply it goes to the thread. But when I open the thread, only mine is shown.
- Where is the delete button? My only criticism for this app was the removal of the delete button in the previous update. However now the delete button is back and it is a great thing. No complaints now.
- Excellent app. Talking about the new interface, I found a bug. When I mark more than 9 messages, interface won't show the number of messages marked so far.
- I am unable to remove categories. I do not like this new "feature" of having my inbox categorized for me.
