Seeing 2 different email Notifications with only one account?

[Guest digthemlows]

US Dell Streak, not rooted..........

So my 'notifications" will show 2 different email icons, one will have many more "unread" messages, but both go to my same gmail account. One has different settings though (has a signature, etc.) The "different" one I can only access from the notifications, and it just recently showed up. The other account I can't seem to get to unless it shows up in "notifications" ......... Any ideas? One icon is an @ symbol and the other is an envelope symbol...............

I think one will be the stock gmail app that's built in, the other a third party app mail appyou may have installed. I see this too with maildroid as my preferred app, gmail is duplicated by the stock build.

I haven't installed a 3rd party, but I did have to set up my password and such when I "shared" a photo from my pictures the other day............any ideas on how to undo one of them??

There seems to be a stock widget for mail with my US Streak, and G-mail too. Can we disable g-mail native app? Or is there a widget for G-mail native app?

I have he UK o2 build. There is a stock mail app (envelope and @) the gmail mail app (envelope with M), and my third party so potentially three. As gmail account is used for a lot of things I guess you set up your mail app, and gmail widget/app shares your password with another Google service. If you only have a Google account you could set the 'email' one (env & @symbol) to check frequency never and just use the gmail one.

You can disable the GMail app from syncing through 'Settings' -> 'Accounts & Sync' -> '[email protected]' -> untick Sync 'Google Mail'

In the stock Email app you can delete your GMail account by going to 'Account' (from within the Email app), then long-press on the account you want to remove, the click 'remove account'

Thanks, so what happened was I "shared" a photo from the photo viewer and chose "email" thinking it would just take me to the Gmail app as I didn't realize the "email" native app was even there. So when I said email it had me enter my gmail info, which at the time I just thought was a glitch or something, but was really setting up the email client. I deleted the gmail account from the stock email app and all is well. again, thanks!
