Hi Grant, I know all of this since that's how I have mine set up. I was
just pointing out the differences between the mail app native to the
iPhone and the gmail app since others were curious.

Hi Raul, if you have Gmail set up as an IMAP account in the native
mail app, then you can archive/label/mark as spam simply by moving
messages into the appropriate folders such as Spam and Trash. If you
go into the settings for your mail account you can change the default
behaviour so that mail in the inbox is archived rather than deleted.
Then for those messages that you actually want to trash, simply move
them to the trash folder.
If you use an exchange account - which I don't recommend since there
is less functionality - you can still delete messages, which moves
them to All Mail.

Hi, since you replied to me, I assume the question was directed toward
me. You know what they say about assuming, so in any case, I don't know
since I don't use the app and I haven't found a need to since the mail
app works just fine for me. I haven't looked at the actual gmail app
description, so maybe you have control over labels and / or filters. Let
me see now. I just looked it up and here's what it says you can do with
the gmail app.
With the Gmail app, you can:
● Receive notifications for new messages
● Read your mail with threaded conversations
● Organize your mail by archiving, labeling, starring, deleting, and
reporting spam
● Keep track of important messages with priority inbox
● Auto-complete contact names as you type
● Send and receive attachments
● Search through all your mail
So, my guess is the labels and star and spam capabilities are added when
you use the gmail app. I might give it a go to see how Voice Over
friendly it is. It doesn't mention the ability of multiple accounts and
that would be a necessity for me because both my raulgallegos.com email
accounts and my secondary domain accounts are gmail accounts since I use
Google Apps.

What would the gmail app do for me that I can't do with the mail app
that is already on the phone?

This is great to know. Also, in case others are looking for true push
notifications for gmail, you can get the Push 4.0 app for $4.99 and use
it for various pushes like gmail, twitter, and Facebook. I find it more
reliable than Boxcar.

Hello all,
I haven't been following this list a lot lately so if this topic has
already been beaten to death, I apologize in advance - I did a super
quick search of past postings and didn't see it!
For all you Gmail users out there, the Gmail app, while not entirely
accessible in certain respects, now has push alerts for new Emails.
There have been a few alternatives that I've used in the past, such as
the Ultimate Notifier app - which checks mail every thirty seconds -
and setting up a Google Exchange account in Mail - which has a few
bugs. Now, you can have true push notifications for your Gmail
account.
Cheers,
Grant
