2. Set up your email account on your Mac using the third-party client.
3. On your Android device, download and install the same third-party client.
4. Sign in to the client on your Android device using the same email address and password as on your Mac.
5. Sync your email by going to the client's settings or menu.

Tips and considerations

• Make sure you have the correct email account settings and server addresses for your email provider.
• If you're using IMAP or POP3, you may need to configure your email client to leave messages on the server or delete them from the server.
• If you're using EAS, you may need to configure your email client to use a specific username and password.
• Some email providers may have specific requirements or restrictions for syncing email between devices.
• You may need to configure your email client to use a specific port number or encryption method (e.g., SSL/TLS).
