I hate that Gmail took away Exchange support.
- corobo 13y agoI spent almost 20 minutes trying to work out why a new Gmail account didn't work on my phone when an older one worked without issue. My mistake really, should have just assumed Google had cancelled a popular service.
- newman314 13y agoI was furious to discover that a replacement iPad stopped working when it got replaced under warranty. This was to an account that I have had for years. All that changed was a new device. I would have paid $5 a month for an ad free experience and exchange support.
- marme 13y agoI think this was inevitable as when you read and send mail only using exchange you can access nearly all the gmail features without having to see their ads. Running the exchange servers costs money but generates zero revenue. They should just create paid accounts that allow them to keep exchange accounts

- nathana 13y agoThat doesn't solve the problem of people who have existing @gmail.com e-mail addresses and who would gladly pay a little extra for access to the account via ActiveSync, but aren't interested in paying for a full-blown Google Apps set up, getting a domain, changing their e-mail address, etc.
