K9 Mail Questions

[iowabowtech]

Just set up K9 on my Incredible and have a few questions, first and foremost want to verify I did things correctly. I have Gmail and a POP3 account. I started by deleting the POP3 account from the native messaging app which I was previously using. I then went into Accounts/Sync and unchecked the checkmark for syncing Gmail but left the checkmark for contacts and calendar. Then proceeded to set up both my Gmail and POP3 account in K9. Ok so far?

Also, is there a way to get unread notifications with K9?

That sounds good. You can actually leave them in the default app and just turn off sync'ing.

Are you looking for something more than the notification bar?

If so, Pure Messenger has been working on it, but it isn't quite there yet.

There is Email Popup, but I have not tried it

Thanks man, appreciate the responses. I'm gonna give the popup app a shot.
