Android Phone and mail apps

Post by Tubaryan12 »

My Android phone will not pick up email if it is using wifi alone and the mail app that came with the phone. It will pick up mail if I use the stand alone gmail or yahoo app, but I would like an all in one that will do this. My old Windows phone would do this, but I can't seem to figure out how to make the Android do it as well. Is this normal or am I doing something wrong with my settings?

I cleared the accounts and started over. Maybe I'll get them right this time. One change: I set them up as premium accounts.

Well, after resetting all of the email to the premium push service on the phone (pop/imap), the problem persists at work. All of the settings are done automatically and I have found no way to adjust them. Anyone out there ever seen this? I love the Android phone, but this one has me stumped.
