To those of you who are saying e-mail in the stock e-mail app forces your regular non-gmail messages THRU gmail, you are WRONG. You're saying it works that way because it's a Google powered phone? When you set up Microsoft Outlook on your desktop with your comcast email, does your email all get forwarded thru Microsoft? No. Thats a really stupid statement. Even stupider that you're telling people your story like it's gospel.
I don't think you have a clue of what I was talking about. Of course outlook doesn't go through Microsoft, this is an entirely different story. There is no way to forward the mail through Microsoft, and Outlook isn't set up that way.
I stand by what I said. You should forward your mail through Google if you can. I understand there are situations when this is not possible. You don't have that opportunity with Outlook anyway so what in the world are you talking about?
