Odd, I can trash my messages just fine and I'm using exchange.

Hi Raul, unfortunately Exchange accounts come with a few bugs -
searching doesn't work, it's harder to check other folders, and you
can't put messages in specific folders properly. It's also not
possible as far as I am aware, to trash messages rather than archiving
them. This is the reason I opted for IMAP rather than exchange.

Hi, honestly I think that if you are already using exchange for your
gmail stuff like contact syncing, you are fine. No need for iTunes. What
problems do you have with using exchange specifically?

What about the ability to sync contacts with Google Contacts? I use
Exchange just so I can synch my contacts with Google Contacts. If
another app did this for me, I'd probably stay away from Exchange.

I feel like I'm weird for responding to my own messages, but that's ok.
One thing which this app also do is push notifications when you receive
new email. Of course, I think that's what got the thread discussion
about it in the first place. It does that very well by letting me know
when I have new messages in my inbox. However I don't know of a way to
get alerts for other mailboxes other than inbox. I also don't see a way
to add additional accounts. I may play with this a little more if I have
time, but at least for me, this doesn't warrant replacing the usage of
the native mail app which already does much on the iPhone.

Thanks.

I am writing this message using the Gmail app. It basically looks like
the Gmail webpage. As I suspected, it allows you to do things like
manager labels and tag messages as spam. However I am encountering the
issue when using a Bluetooth keyboard, that the edit field for me to
type the message doesn't allow me to use the keyboard at all times. So
I
ended up turning off the keyboard and now I am just using the onboard
keyboard on the screen. This is that similar issue that I have
experienced on webpages using Safari when I try to fill in forms. Other
than that, things seem very speech friendly with voiceover. Your action
buttons for each message are at the top of the screen instead of at the
bottom like they are in the default mail app. By default it will show
you a delete button, archive button, and more button. If you choose the
more button, you can do things like reply, Mark as spam, or added as a
label. The way I personally use Gmail, it doesn't require me to be on
the website much to do things like marking messages as spam, editing
labels, or moving things to other folders. So I probably will not be
using this app for very much. I am dictating right now, and I think
what
I meant by the last sentence is that the things that I use Gmail for on
the website, I can still do there without having to use this app. For
typical male reading, replying, and composing, I can still use the
default mail app which comes with the iPhone.

      gonna get it and see if there is any difference other than the
      ability to mark messages as spam, or add stars to them and let you
      all know.

          I have a Gmail account and use it in the regular E-mail app. I
get
          notifications when the mail comes in. Why would I want the
Gmail
          app over
          this? With the screen readers, this might come out as
sarcastic
          which is not

          my intention. I really want to know, smiles.

          Subject: Gmail app now has push notifications

          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
