*FAQ*
1. Why is the message slow to open? You need to set preload options found in global preferences.
2. Why is Exchange not working? I support 2003,2007, and 2010. However, each one can be set up differently by your administrator. The usual issue is username which can be domain\username, username, or username@domain.com
3. I search, but see no results? You need to set up preloading in order to see search results.
4. How can I have different notifications for sound and LED color? You can set this under the rules section in global preferences.
5. Why can't I see my folders in Hotmail? Hotmail in MailDroid runs under POP3 (Microsoft charges a license for ActiveSync) and POP3 does not support folders from the server. IMAP does support this.
6. Can you change the icon? If you have a good idea, email me and we can talk about it.
7. Will there be a paid version? Yes, a version exists on the market.

Why doesn't email get marked as read on my server. I open my email on my samsung galaxy s2 but still they are marked as unread when I open the website

Better than stock but always tells me I am offline or folder is not open. Very bothersome!

I dunno why it gives me difficulty in setting up the exchange acct. Personal (pop3) setup and syncs just fine.. Will see if new update fixes

Last update has caused a huge problem. Every time I get an alert and try to open it I am told I am offline

Good mail client. Has lot of options which default client does not provide. Only shortcoming is out has banner ads which is annoying.

Seems a lot better than K-9. So far so good. Nicer UI and a lot faster to check mail.

Doesn't offer any features that Gmail or the default mail app don't offer. Plus the app has banner ads.The app isn't worth downloading in my opinion.
