1020 Email Client?

[anon395528]

As with every phone I purchase, I lurk around the forums for a bit to get the real users scoop....I am a photographer by trade so this "phone" has me interested. I am currently on an S3 and it is ok I am just bored with the whole OS. I do use quite a few apps and one of my fav apps is called K-9 mail that "fetches" my various email via IMAP settings...I probably have 20+ email accounts I have configured with this app.

I did a search for email clients and the Windows store is not really very helpful...there is no sorting mechanism by sales or ratings.....I prefer NOT to use Outlook even though I am familiar with it.

Can anyone offer any experience with a really good email client I can look at...this is probably the deal breaker for me on the 1020 or head over for a Note III.

The built-in Windows Phone email client is not Outlook or anything like it in my opinion. I really like it and strongly urge you to give it a fair shake. But I only use 2 email accounts on my phone: home and work. Not sure how it (or anything else) would scale to 20+ email accounts...

I've used K9 but didn't notice anything special or superior about it. Figure out which specific features / abilities make it so good for you and make sure the 1020 can do the same. Twenty accounts is a lot but I don't see the native WP8 Mail client / app having any difficulties handling it (I've had as many as 11 at one point).

yes, it is not super sexy....just easy to setup of unlimited email accounts...so, thanks for your note...that sounds acceptable.
