I have been using Outlook for the longest time and have tried FairEmail a couple of times and simply deleted it. Tried sticking through it for about a month and I’ll be sticking with it for a good long time now :)

Thunderbird with Lightning to reproduce all the outlook functionality
- Desktop: Thunderbird
- Android: K-9 Mail
I quite like using K-9 Mail, it merged with Thunderbird and great things are coming for it, I think it’s awesome
Do you know why its Google Play rating is so abysmal? Everyone seems furious about some redesign, but lemmy loves it.
Redesigns are always perceived poorly. Every decrease in performance, every lost feature, every relocated setting is heavily felt by all the power-users. For new users tho, K9 probably became more viable/attractive.
Eventually people will get used to the design, performance issues will get fixed, new features will be (re)added and the rating will improve again.
Same thing happened with the Firefox Android Browser.
Protonmail connected to my domain
I like FairEmail on Android and don’t see myself switching to something else anytime soon. For the desktop I use Thunderbird
Been using mutt for years, and I still love it. But getting it to works is more and more of a pain nowadays, and I find myself using whatever webmail my company uses (right now O365). For personnal emails, mutt on the desktop, and a selfhosted roundcube for when I don’t have a client.
Careful if you’re using Outlook on Android. From what I’ve read, it doesn’t actually locally handle non-exchange accounts like IMAP or POP3 (why are you using POP3 though). It’s done on Microsoft’s servers, so your basically giving Microsoft your e-mails. I’m not sure what kind of access they get to them from the privacy agreement you probably just clicked past.
So Outlook in Android users Microsoft servers to fetch your mail, and the client just shows whatever the server got.
On Android I use FairEmail. I prefer it for it being FOSS.
I second this. This is one of the few apps I actually paid for.
ProtonMail :) (Edit: Oh i see client! (no matter as long as it works with ProtonBridge, or just web UI)
I use FairEmail, too. I didn’t like GMail and K9.
What didn’t you like about K-9? I used FairEmail for a while and was happy enough with it, but K-9 seemed like a huge upgrade when I finally made the switch.
For me personally, K9’s design seemed very unintuitive and complicated, when I first tried it almost 10 years ago. FairEmail for me is a great compromise between usability and feature-richness.
K9 is probably completely different from a decade ago, but I guess I will wait until K9 has merged completely with Thunderbird, before I look into it again.
Thunderbird on desktop, fairemail on android.
I’ve migrated from just using a gmail account to using Anonaddy which point towards a Tutanota email. The migration was PAINFUL, but glad I persisted and went through with it.
Please don’t hate me, but I use the Gmail app on Android since it works well enough.
On my desktop though I use Thunderbird, and have for about as long as I can remember.

Why? Because I was on Proton personally for a long time but got frustrated with the lack of features and also my wife and I rely heavily on shared groupware stuff like calendars and reminders, so we switched back to Google Mail. Once Proton is a bit more feature-rich, we’ll take a look at it again.
