my thoughts on the default email app for ios7
I never thought that Apple Mail would get worse with iOS7 however it is worse I do not like the display of Apple Mail I do not like the way when I search for messages, the iphone looses focus and retrieves email when I have it set to manually retrieve email. I also don't like the fact that when I choose emails to either delete, or move to the archive folder, the app refuses to do what I ask, and 9 times out of ten I get a message stating that the emails cannot be moved to the specific folder. I'm interested in cleaning my mailbox, and not twiddling my thumbs and waisting time trying to do some the ** program isn't going to do. Apple has two choices. the first one makes more since but due to their email client reputation, it isn't going to happen. fix the problem. If they don't fix it, I will be forced to find another portable way to check email and clean my box out, which is almost as big of a pain in the ** as dealing with the current apple email client. I wish I had a way to rate the app on the app store. Of course, they don't want to hear or see something that they obviously know isn't working. If i only used one app, the mail app on my phone and had about 15gb of space available for the dufus mail program to dance, I'd mostly get the same response. I have currently 3.2 gb available and the app still does the same stuff. I'm really attempting to be nice about this, my ipad did this too with ios 6, and the i-devices are the only devices I have to use to attempt to get the job done. I don't have time to set at a cooperating desktop or laptop and (babysit) the emails. att is my email service, and in ios7 they have chosen to make their yahoo mail app less accessible than before. That is a terrific way for them to continue to keep customers. if anyone has another email client for ios7 that might work, let me know. Rebooting the phone or closing the ap in the app switcher doesn't help the problem either. Just another waisting of time and another babysitting job that is useless. i would gladly pay for a app that actually works and does what I ask it to do. I've used boxer and emailganizer, but I don't care about the format they use. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I can't get an upgrade to the 5s due to funds right now, and that may be another dufus waist of time. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Re: my thoughts on the default email app for ios7
I don't have nearly as much trouble with the Apple email client as you do. I'd suggest the Gmail app, but it doesn't sound like you're willing to entertain switching mail providers.

RE: my thoughts on the default email app for ios7
Hi Melissa, I know this won't help you and I am not saying this to upset you, but could it be that something is not set up properly on your account with respect to deleting/archiving/moving email? I have 3 accounts set up and I don't experience any of the issues you seem to have. I actually think the mail app in iOS 7 is really nice, it has some nice new features with respect to hiding accounts, putting them in a certain order and adding views like Unread or All Trash. I also found that now I am not always kicked back to the top of all my messages if I open let's say message 22 in my Inbox, once I tap Back or do the scrub gesture focus is back on that message. As for search, it works differently in iOS 7, but I actually think it's more efficient the way it is now. I just type something in the search field and it searches both the header and content for the word, Voiceover announces how many results it finds as you type and it narrows down the results and once I am done typing my search term I can then select to search only the current mailbox if I still get too many results, by default it searches all mailboxes, I think it's very powerful and simple. I also like the fact Apple added the More option to the rotor which allows you to quickly reply, forward or move a message. This is the first message I have seen apart from a few where people asked why they only had Archive instead of Trash which is something you have to change in Settings, Mail, Contacts, Calendar and under Advanced in your mail account.

Re: my thoughts on the default email app for ios7
I must concur in that I find the app works quite well. I am not having any of the problems you are with. I don't have any suggestions as to how to make it better for you though.
