Motorola Droid Razr :: Make Gmail Work Best With Universal Inbox And Mail App?

when setting up your Gmail in the stock email app to use it that way or take advantage of the Universal Inbox you should do it this way.

1. if you set it up already by My Accounts > Add Account > Email Accounts > Gmail then you need to delete that account

2. go to My Accounts > Add Account > Email Accounts > Other

3. use the following:

Incoming Settings

IMAP server: imap.gmail.com
Port: 993
Security type: SSL (always)

Outgoing settings
SMTP server: smtp.gmail.com
Port: 465
Security type: SSL (always)

this will now work as it should.the problem was that if you set it up with Gmail selected instead of Other then when you checked an email on the RAZR it would not show as Read on your Gmail account and same with Sent folder etc...
