Turns out Outlook sucks ass for anything not part of an office365 subscription, so I’m looking for something else. Preferably open source, preferably available via F-Droid.
Been using K-9 Mail for a long time, works fine for me. I usually install it through Google Play but it does seem to be on F-Droid too.
I switched to iOS so I might not be up to date but I thought K9 was paid?
No, it’s open source.
Maybe it’s iOS but some FOSS things come with a minimal fee to support the dev fees for the App Store
Both, sort of? It always had a free version along with a paid version that I think existed mostly for donations than anything else.
That was before Mozilla took it over, now I don’t think the paid version of the app even exists. I don’t know if Mozilla will eventually rebrand it as Thunderbird Android version or something but I’m not worried about it as long as it still works.
“Took over” is a little bit misleading. The dev from k-9 and Mozilla have an agreement to work together he is now a mozilla-dev. And k-9 will be slowly converted to Thunderbird for android.
That’s fair, I wasn’t aware of what their specific arrangement was. Sort of suspected the K-9 dev was hired by Mozilla or they agreed to work together, that’s usually how these things go.
Ah, TIL it’s owned by mozilla
I just wish K9 would support nested folders in the sidebar instead of flattening them.
K-9 Mail is my go to as well. It was bought by Mozilla a little while back to be the mobile app for Thunderbird. Still waiting on it to be fully integrated as a mobile Thunderbird app, but it’s nice knowing all the data is handled by Mozilla until then at least.
Big +1 for K-9. I considered switching to an iPhone after breaking my previous Android phone, but two apps, K-9 and an actual real Firefox, kept me on Android. It’s a great mail reader, and I struggle to imagine having to use something else.
Hands down the best is FairEmail
Good for privacy, IIRC the default is not to load any images/trackers in emails. Mine currently handles three imap accounts inc. a M$ one.
