I tried to download Mozilla Thunderbird but no go because of no flash. It's really frustrating.
The app that comes installed with the iPad is not really much of an email reader
If you own your own domain and don't want to use say... squirrel mail or whatever sh1tty webmail client your host provides, gmail isn't really an option.
Plus, not everyone wants to give ALL their data to gmail. It shouldn't be the answer to every problem... APPLE!
I manage 7-10 domains at any one time, and some of them are open due to the way I handle subscriptions and memberships. I filter my mail easily on the OSX native mail app, but on the ipad client it's a joke. I get to read (and delete) my spam ALL OVER again. What's the point of not allowing preferences like filters to cross over to the mail app?
Just opening the mail app is a hassle. If I want to peek at an old message, I have to wait for it to download to all my accounts an I can't stop it. If I'm offline and I want to read a message, I have to wait for eight error messages to pop up telling me that mail can't connect.
What a joke. This is why websites like gmail and facebook are going to continue to rule. At least I can get messages there while on the road.
Apple just fuels the competition by making such crap software for its pretty new products.
meganano you are the man.
I hereby nominate you for CEO of Apple Inc.
You are comparing to how an application runs on your desktop computer to how one works running a puny little A5 processor? Really? Everyone here with all these 8 or 9 accounts, several domains, 40,000 emails a day, etc. needs to look into an MacBook Air or the PC equivalent. Asking the iOS mail app to handle this is a joke.
