Gmail
This email client is Google’s web-based email service.

between your device and your Gmail account on the Web.
NOTE : You must have a valid and active Google account prior to using this email
client.

actions taken in the Gmail phone application are reflected
on the web browser. For example, if you read a message
in Gmail on your device, it will be marked as read in a Web
browser. And a message that you send using a browser, or
even a draft of a message, is visible in Gmail on the device.

grouped in your Inbox as a single conversation tread. In other
email applications, replies to messages are sent as individual
messages, making it difficult to keep track of related
messages. Gmail makes it easy to follow conversations with

Gmail is organized by labels, not by folders s : By tagging
messages with labels, you can organize your conversations
in many different ways. Whereas in other email applications,
each message can only be stored in one folder. For example,
