not sure i understand. i have one 'email' app on my android that merges my EXCHANGE and LIVE/HOTMAIL, etc. accounts.

gmail has more features on android and is a separate app but you can combine all your gmail addresses in the one app.

so in short, you have one app for gmail; and one app for all your other email accounts.

you can do as rocket suggested or import your yahoo email to the normal 'email' app that comes with your android phone.

Set your gmail to check your yahoo account, you can send ans receive both by just accessing gmail

Access gmail from pc it's easier, go into settings and add account, you'll input your yahoo name/pass... Easy to do. When you're in gmail afterwards you can send /recv from either just make sure you know whiich one is showing.

PS make sure to set the reply to rule as "always reply with account original email was sent to" or you'll get a yahoo email and reply with gmail without knowing

Use your stock email app. It should allow you to receive emails from multiple accounts and select which account you want to send emails from.

Check out CloudMagic. It's free and has a great widget. I have one Gmail and three yahoo accounts on it.

OP's issue is with android. It makes you sign in to a google account to download apps etc and automatically routes that email to the gmail app. All other email is set up through the phones "email" app.

Set the gmail app to not check email anymore, and add your gmail account to the stock "email" app where your yahoo is currently received.

Be careful about doing this. If you automatically route your work emails through your personal gmail account some places might have a real problem with that.

Suppose someone sends work email to you that has confidential client information? Software exists to monitor such things and you could have some splainin to do.
