Use k9mail on the Android.

It has worked very well for me;  the default/built-in mail client seems
to be deliberate crap in order to create pressure to use gmail
[seriously, nobody in 2010 would make that bad an e-mail client by

That is right up there with their being no CalDAV support; even the @*(^
