Ok guys, i cant seem to find anything on the search about this so here we go.

Im not sure about the majority but i have no access to a computer (only at work but are heavily restricted) so all my baiting is done on my smartphone. As i have Gmail accounts i use the gmail app where i can stay logged into all my accounts at once which is great.

The only stumbleing block i have found is the Gmail app doesnt allow you to see the email headers which come problamatic when you want to check a lads IP or to send piggy information or anything else. This is obviously easily obtainable on a PC but having no access to one creates a problem for me. I searched for days and days to no avail but have just found an email app called K-9 Mail.

Its very versatile and allows you to see all the email headers for anything you may need unlike the other restricted apps for android/iphone. It proberbly has more options that would also benefit me as a baiter but i havent come across any yet. It has had 5 million downloads on Google Play so seems to be a well established app.

So for you guys who predominately use your smartphone for baiting and need access to email header information this may be the app for you Smile

It may not be of relevance to most but if it helps a few people then happy days!

I used K-9 for a long time when I had an android phone it is probably the best mail app available for android. Not really needed on iPhone though because the iOS mail app is a little better in my opinion.

If you really need to see headers you can also login to gmail on the browser and switch to desktop view. It is so rare I actually care what the headers say it is not that much of a hassle.

I tried this but it always reverts back to my RL GMail account and i cant seem to switch it to my baiting one. TBH at the minute i only use it to get the IP address so i can geolocate my lad which other wise id be unable to do.

That's probably an android thing on iOS if you log in to the right gmail account it works fine.
