    Can anyone share their experience with the email app?
    Does it logon simply? or do you have to do the whole app passwords back and forth [Login to see the link] LG and Kyocera?
    Is any provider easier than others to login? (Gmail, Outlook etc)
    Also overall is it a decent experience? Any difference if you installed one of the Kosher custom ROMs?
    Thanks

      Flippy changed the title to Email App on Alcatel TCL Flip 2 (T408DL) .

      Flippy I think it's the exact same app as the Alcatel Go Flip V, so I'm talking from my experience on that phone. Overall, it's not the best app. It could be very laggy, you sometimes need to refresh a bunch of times to get it working, it clicks on links even without a browser (though it's bad at displaying them), all of your labels might not show up, when you're scrolling in an email, it just goes to the first link (you can fix this by clicking on the body with a mouse once), and the overall email experience is not the best, but it gets the job done. I haven't invested much time trying to find an alternative because I just need something that works.

      As per the login, it supports Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, AOL, and others that you can configure manually. You need a browser if you're configuring your email with the default options. I only have experience logging in with Gmail, and that's a piece of cake.

        FliphoneBochur clicks on links even without a browser (though it's bad at displaying them)

        Is that an internet problem? Could you then navigate to any internet page even with browser disabled on the Kosher roms from [Login to see the link] ?

            Flippy I blocked the in app browsing on my Kosher Roms. But FliphoneBochur is right that there is a browser within the email app.
