Click on 'Show pictures' and then you will see the icon (to get back to pure text view without pictures).

BTW, Marcel: The alt text for the return-to-text symbol is wrong.

gimpy1, what you are describing is the normal behaviour when the phone is in 'Do Not Disturb' mode.

Marcel, in the settings, shouldn't the switch for requesting a confirmation by default be closer and above to selecting the type of confirmation?
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
I will see if I can change the tooltip text depending on the state, but this has low priority.

I am not sure which confirmation switch you mean. Maybe a screenshot will help.

Hi Marcel,

Thank you again for maintaining and developing this great app!

I noticed a bug recently with the dark theme when replying inline with formatted text (Edit as reformatted text) to an email using colours: my answer is written with the HTML white colour (color:#FFFFFF).

To reproduce it:

* Enable the dark theme

* Send an email to yourself with HTML support (no need to have colours apparently)

* Reply to the email (to the sender)

* Click on the top right "Edit" button

* Select "Edit as reformatted text"

* Add some text between the lines (without the quotes)

* Send (still with HTML support of course)

* Check the received email with the HTML viewer or check the raw email to see

<span style="color:#FFFFFF;">

I found this bug with the version 1.1001. I just upgraded to 1.1016 and I still have it.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
Thanks for reporting this. I will look into it.

Edit: this will be fixed in the next release:

Hi Marcel. I can't try the assistant to configure my Gmail account. It says something about only working on official Android versions. My device is a Razer Phone running stock Pie from Razer. I'm 99% sure it's manufacturer's fault, but I thought I'd let you know. I'm using latest FE from fdroid.

Cheers
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
I am 100% sure it is because you are using the F-Droid build, please see here:

Hello Marcel,

Sorry to bother you with this but why is there an empty space on the action bar and an icon on a second line? Why all do not fit on a single line?

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
Because not all icons fit.

If you update to the latest version, the answer icon will be omitted, provide you have enabled to expand one message only.
[Android Apps and Games] Timmmmaaahh!:
The gap is because 'image' and 'original message' icons are aligned on the right so it's not a space at all. Go to (Android) Settings > Display > Display size and make it a little smaller. You'll notice the difference instantly.

Wrapped with delicious Fajita [emoji896]
[Android Apps and Games] La_Globule:
To both of you: the two solutions work perfectly.

A5 2017 is my "personal" phone. The other is a LG G4.

Same behavior on the 2.
[Android Apps and Games] wirdSchoon:
FairEmail is safe as long as there is a 1 in front. :good:

But I'll try to give you another suggestion for better usability.

It would be good if you could scale the font so that everyone can adjust the size themselves.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
The font sizes are the default material font sizes that apply to all apps following the material design guidelines.

You can use the Android font size settings (under display) to select a bigger font for all apps. This is how it supposed to be.
[Android Apps and Games] beeshyams:
[MENTION=2799345]M66B[/MENTION]

Though I won't be using this app since it doesn't support Yahoo and encryption, here is a thought that may fit into the app concept

You would be aware of standard notes, open source. Couple of days back they introduced FailSafe as a Plugin using which your notes plus attachments are encrypted and stored on the public cloud of your choice

I was wondering if integrating that makes sense say for example your attachments which are encrypted, stripped from the mail and reverse when needed. At no point will you have sensitive attachments that can be seen. For the text of the mail may be leave it as it is or simpler encryption methods like in line PGP?

I am not aware of encryption concepts or what it takes to add or whether it's worth it. Just shooting my thoughts on good faith, mainly because I am yet to come across a dev who is so responsive

You can trash the whole thing (except the compliments :laugh:
[Android Apps and Games] wirdSchoon:
I just want a larger font for better readability of the mail text in FairEmail, otherwise the font size will even fit within FairEmail!
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
I had assumed this was already fixed, but in the next version it will really be.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:

All reported problems should be fixed and most of the feature requests are implemented now. I am pretty content with what FairEmail has become, you too?
[Android Apps and Games] heinhuiz:
Ehm, I notice something strange now. After installing the new version and opening it, a new mail notification appeared (I had that notification before updating already). After closing and reopening the app, the notification stayed.

Force stopping the app obviously closes the notification, but opening the app made it appear again.

Also, marking a message unread while inside the app makes the notification appear immediately.

Is that by design?
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
This has been discussed earlier: the new message notification shows unread messages from the date/time the new messages notification was last tapped or swiped away. I still have no better solution for this, but let me hear if you have a suggestion.
[Android Apps and Games] heinhuiz:
Ah yes, I remember now.

Can you not let the notification disappear when the app window becomes visible, and prevent it from appearing while the window is open? (Or was that discussed also?)

Edit: I see that I started this discussion last time also. I seem to have a short memory ?
[Android Apps and Games] nussbaum:
I had a tiny little annoyance, when i entered the credendials on a second phone (Xperia Mini, you might remember, Marcel :) ). After filling out everything i hit advanced/color, got informed about pro features, and lost everything i entered before :(
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
The message list is not scrolled up automatically (except when navigating from the notification), so updating the time until when the messages are seen could result in missing new messages.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
This was fixed in the latest release ...

Are you really still using the Xperia Mini? Maybe even with my ROM?

Edit: almost six years ago: https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2048807
[Android Apps and Games] heinhuiz:
Then, as far as I'm concerned, you're there!

---------- Post added at 08:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:56 PM ----------

Sorry, but rethinking this, isn't there some kind of "top of list" event that can trigger notification removal? So that when you scroll up to the top (or when the app opens at the top) the notification is removed?

That would give extra work for you because then you have to make a difference between the unified inbox and the separate account inboxes, so that only the notifications are removed from inboxes that are actually visible.
[Android Apps and Games] nussbaum:
Thank you, sorry, i didn't test the latest release.

My wife still exclusively uses a smultron with LegacyXperia CM11, i have another one on a slimmed down LX CM14.1 gapps-free as a second phone. It is still usable with carefully selected apps, and you learn to have patience again :victory:
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
I am also not finished with this because the question is relevant and I am sure there will be more of them.

Top of the list of a paged list (to handle many messages) is not really an option and sounds more as a workaround, possibly with edge cases, for example when you are already at the top of the list and when another new message arrives.
[Android Apps and Games] heinhuiz:
OK. I don't think it should stop you from releasing the app; with a broader user base and if you keep the github issue list open other people might even come with new ideas how to handle it.

If I have a sudden brain wave you'll hear from me!
[Android Apps and Games] heinhuiz:
BTW, you're not alone in trying to get notifications to work. I was just reading a new mail in my ProtonMail app when the accompanying notification for that message appeared. And ProtonMail even uses the standard Google push notification protocol.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
Releasing for a broader audience will result in lots of questions. You don't want to see my inbox as it is now ...

I will go with updating the seen until time on bringing the unified inbox to the foreground, which happens when opening the app, turning on the screen with the app visible, etc.

Edit: I forgot to tell why: the subtitle will show how many messages are unread.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
I have just released version 1.1020

Changelog/download:

https://github.com/M66B/FairEmail/releases

This version has a new, frequently requested feature: bulleted/numbered lists. Just start a line with a star * or a dash - followed by a space and FairEmail will convert the items to a list on sending the message.

Please report any issue you discover, so it can be fixed.
[Android Apps and Games] beeshyams:
Nice feature. Thanks

Is a markdown editor used (translate-can we expect more markdown features)?
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
No, this is not markdown and I have no plans to add markdown either.

Also, this solution was chosen because not all Android versions support bulleted and numbered lists in the (very limited) Android text editor. Hopefully, Google will improve this one day.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
[MENTION=6285129]beeshyams[/MENTION] note that a markdown editor cannot be used to edit replied-to / forwarded messages.

Otherwise it would be relatively easy to add a markdown editor because Markwon added an editor not long ago.

Monitoring 0 accounts

I'm using 4 accounts but in the last several days the pull-down notification very often says Monitoring 0 accounts or Monitoring 1 account. I'm using the latest version and searched this thread for answers. Galaxy S20 Ultra. Thank you!

How many processes are still open at this point? What does it look like when you look again five minutes later? Which error messages are shown in the Settings / Accounts?

Folks, please see this

https://android.meta.stackexchange.com/a/2605/131553

FairEmail app will show up on Android Enthusiasts Stack Exchange in the ads banner of home page (for those who are not familiar with Android Enthusiasts SE, it is a Q & A site, which draws HUGE amount of Google search views and referrals from other technical sites)

For the ad to show up there, it needs SIX votes. Those of who you are members of SE please vote (I can't vote being proposer). If you know someone who is a member please ask them to vote.

I am sure WE want this app to gain maximum publicity

Also, ad looks OK to me on mobile, someone please check on Desktop

Thanks

Edit : [MENTION=2799345]M66B[/MENTION], I used Github link being the best given Play Store /F-droid issues. You want me to change it let me know

[Android Apps and Games] maybeme2:
Maybe I'm doing something wrong but it is not happening that way for me.

See image.

I started a line with a dash but the next line was not part of a list.

Samething when I started a line with an asterisk.

Do I need to change a setting first or am I just misunderstanding?
[Android Apps and Games] maybeme2:
Here is the received message.
[Android Apps and Games] beeshyams:
For each line you need to use asterisk or dash (with single space)

It doesn't show when you are typing but once sent it shows in sent
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
You'll need to prefix all list items with a star or a dash followed by a space.

FairEmail will convert this to HTML lists on sending the message.

Try something like:

This is a list with three item:
- Item 1
- Item 2
- Item 3

Send it to yourself and check how it looks like in a desktop client.
[Android Apps and Games] maybeme2:
OK, it was me misunderstanding. You are correct.

Here is the received message if I use '- ' before each line.

Nice feature, but, because of my keyboard, I find it easier to do it all manually by just clicking a consecutive number each time. The new method does not save me much in keys clicks on my keyboard. YMMV.

(Just feedback)
[Android Apps and Games] maybeme2:
Would be nice if the entire list could also be indented. Does android allow that?
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
FairEmail does not use real lists when displaying formatted messages because not all Android versions do support this.

[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
If somebody is wondering about the status of the Gmail OAuth approval: FairEmail went into review again on Jan 9 (without any good reason from my perspective) and I asked about the status on Feb 6. I got a "quick" response on Feb 10: "We are currently reviewing your project and query, will get back to you shortly. We appreciate your patience.".

I am not sure what "shortly" means, but I guess it means for Google something else than for the rest of the world.

Long story short: I have asked about the status again today.
[Android Apps and Games] La_Globule:
Thanks for this new version.

I've seen you improved the settings readability by centering the paragraph headers, nice!
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
As suggested by JJ.

If there needs to be more titles, please let me know.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
It happens too often that I am contacted by people who are running their own email server and blaming FairEmail for messages not being received while the server configuration is actually to blame. If you run your own server, you should take responsibility too!

A lot of things can go wrong with an email server, so unless your email isn't critical and you have a lot of spare time, I do not advice to run your own email server. If you run your own email server and you care about your messages being received, you should send messages via a third party, like Amazon SES. Big email providers, and especially Microsoft, are known to frequently reject messages from private servers, without a real possibility for appeals.

I have been running my own email servers for quite some time, but I have stopped with it because delivery of messages is a constant problem. To send messages I cannot advice Sendgrid, Sparkpost and SendinBlue, even though Sendgrid is well-known. Some of these parties even stop sending all your messages at the first complaint! Amazon SES has proven to be mostly reliable, although not being perfect.

Hi [MENTION=2799345]M66B[/MENTION], a long while ago you had a look at plain text e-mails that rendered in a very linear fashion, which required scrolling through pretty much empty space. You fixed it that time. However, I know you have done loads of work since then on the way text renders, but this issue has resurfaced. Is it worth having a look or have things moved on too far?
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
Which version of FairEmail are you using?

Feel free to long press 'Support' to get my email address and send me a sample raw message file (three-dots menu above the message text).
[Android Apps and Games] ouzowtf:
Nowadays "for the rest of the world" could mean a shorter time frame than "in a few months" a few years ago :rolleyes:
[Android Apps and Games] Shakidor:
That being said, "for the rest of the world" ≠ "till the end of the world" ≠ "to the ends of the Earth"

[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
I have a hard day to cope with yet another series of unfair/unreasonable reviews.

[MENTION=2799345]M66B[/MENTION] Out of curiosity - Is it possible to have a link to a particular mail created so that it can be used elsewhere? For instance in calendar.

I don't need this feature but was thinking about this when I read that Google Tasks let you access the link which is created by Gmail app to open that particular mail (thanks to FairEmail, Gmail app is frozen, so I didn't know that Gmail does this)

This is feature creep IMO - but it sounds like a useful feature. Not that I need it

2 Problems

Hello,

I have two problems with my Pro-Version:

- After rebooting Android 6.0 (Mails exist), there is the FairEmail-Symbol at the top of the screen (like it should), but there is no number (number of existing mails) in the icon.

- Forwarding Mails: With "Forwarding" and with activated text citation, the mail is always forwarded without the text of the forwarded mail.

Regards

Thomas
[Android Apps and Games] fraschi51:
Forwarding works perfectly with quoted text so far. Hence my question, where did you set that the signature should be placed?
[Android Apps and Games] TJF2:
I have no signature ;)
[Android Apps and Games] fraschi51:
What is the Usenet Signature Convention switch? And - again - what is the setting where your signature, if you had one, should be?
[Android Apps and Games] TJF2:
Usenet Signature Convention switch is off. "Add signature after quoted / forwarded message" is off.
[Android Apps and Games] fraschi51:
Even if no signature separator is inserted, try to make the quoted text more visible if you place your (non-existent) signature below the forwarded text by changing the setting.
[Android Apps and Games] TJF2:
Signature below the forwarded text by changing the setting doesn' change the behaviour!
[Android Apps and Games] fraschi51:
O.k., then unfortunately I have no more idea why it does not work for you as intended. Let's see what other ideas Marcel has...
[Android Apps and Games] TJF2:
Thank you very much!
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
This is not possible and will not be added.

However, there is a function to share messages for usage / storage in other apps.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
The status bar notification never shows the number of emails, but the number of accounts being synchronized. This will be updated on connecting to the email server(s), when an internet connection becomes available.

I can forward messages, with the original text, without any problem. I have just double checked this. Which version of FairEmail are you using?
[Android Apps and Games] TJF2:
- My "normal" Icon shows always the number of mails (actual: 5) in my 3 accounts.

- Version 1.965
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
I guess you mean notification badges, please see this FAQ:

https://github.com/M66B/FairEmail/blob/master/FAQ.md#user-content-faq106

Version 1.965 is not supported anymore, so please update. This will solve your problem too ...
[Android Apps and Games] TJF2:
Ok. Thank you! Now forwarding works!

Is there only the possibility to update the program with Google Play?
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
You can switch from the Play store to the GitHub version or the other way around, other switches are not possible without reinstalling.
[Android Apps and Games] TJF2:
No way to be informed? Mailing list?
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
The Play store will notify you of any updates and the GitHub version will do too.
[Android Apps and Games] TJF2:
Thank you very much! Because I've disabled all these Google-Notifies my way is GitHub. I've installed this version now.

[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
I have already complained here too often about unfair and unreasonable reviews. Also today there are already several of them again. I can't help to get demotivated by this. The only way to deal with this seems to be taking more distance. FairEmail will be kept maintained and supported, but there will be no new features anymore. There are already enough of them anyway.
[Android Apps and Games] maybeme2:
Along the same line of thinking, is it currently possible to include an email or two as 'attachments' within another email?

I know an email can be forwarded but this is different and would allow one or more sent as attachments.

Not essential. Just asking.
[Android Apps and Games] ooonea:
I use it practically from the first version and I purchased ke paid features both as a single apk and from the Play Store.The client is excellent, your work is excellent. Don't let yourself be demotivated. I can not do without your app to manage email.
