BTW I am pretty surprised you didn't put the already translated description on the Play store (french for me).
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
To be honest: I forgot about it.

I will wait some more time for suggestions for improvements and after that I will upload the new text.
[Android Apps and Games] La_Globule:
Ok and it will be a great "marketing" advantage for the app.
[Android Apps and Games] chantoine:
Sorry i was mentioning the "Thunderbird" app.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
Maybe stupid, but I am still somewhat glad that all those people rate the "Thunderbird" clone 5 stars:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.servicomtech.email&hl=en&showAllReviews=true

Nevertheless, the "developer" is a liar: "We will keep working on it!" and "We're always working hard to improve the app" and also a bit of a thief: "our avantage no pro features, all is free". He is not telling that his app has tracking, ads and is likely not properly being supported.

The app violates a number of Play store policies, take your pick from here:

I have just received a message from Mozilla that they are going to take action on the "Thunderbird" clone.
[Android Apps and Games] Surfinette:
Done!

If you want to do 'marketing', you have to play by the rules, which are:

In marketing there are no rules - if it works, do it.

Yes, I understand and agree with your principled attitude, so neither of us will ever become rich.

If this has been profitable (the advertising?) for the clone runner, you can expect a new clone to pop up in short order, probably almost identical, just with a different name.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
I think principles are important and becoming rich won't make you happy, maybe even on the contrary.

There will likely be new clones, there are plenty of NetGuard too, but using the name "Thunderbird" is just of another order and quite misleading.
[Android Apps and Games] sethnet:
Is it just me or is the clone gone?
[Android Apps and Games] tbv2005:
<joke>if "we" means M66B he might not be that wrong ;)</joke>

Reported to Mozilla and left review, doubt reporting to Google as inappropriate will help (as they earn with the adds that guy/girl put in)

Mh, I left my review 10min ago, so then it was there, direct link also just worked, but when searching for Thunderbird email app I can't find it....
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
The "Thunderbird" app is gone, likely due to actions of Mozilla's IP (intellectueel property) department, who were so nice to inform me :)

Hi there!

I would like to share a few topics I noticed during tests of FairEmail with my big mailbox :D.

1- while scrolling my long list of email (inbox), a little fast... at some time, I am suddenly kicked out from the app.

No error message, just back to android.

I can reproduce it several times.

2- *humble feature proposal from my thumb: enable a fast scrolling for example when scrolling on screen edge (some apps offer this when it comes to scroll long list of whatever, but I was not able to remind an example :(...)

3- Message sync: while syncing all my large folders ( a few thousands email each), I noticed FairEmail didn't sync'ed in one time. For some folders, I had to re'sync a few times to download all emails.

Still some folders (see 2010 & 2012 on attached screenshot ) 1 or 2 mails refuses to be downloaded?

Not a big deal but surprising.

4- regarding the screenshot : I was wondering what is the original word used for "utilisateur" on my side (in French).

"utilisateur" means "user". Do it sounds expected?

Best regards,

A small design question: Could it perhaps be more useful if the right-left indentation in the conversation view is exactly the other way around, that means that sent messages are displayed a little more to the right and all received messages are left-aligned at the edge? I came up with it because the symbol for the sent messages is also the arrow pointing to the right.
[Android Apps and Games] nadir husain:
Totally agree
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
Scrolling: please make sure you have error reporting enabled. If you enable debug mode temporarily, there will appear a long identifier with dashes, numbers and letters. Post it here and I will check for any error message from your device. Nobody else can do anything with this identifier, so it safe to share it in public.

Fast scrolling is enabled, but there is a bug in AndroidX making the fast scroll thumb small with a large number of items, see also here:

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

FairEmail will sync all messages in one time, provided that the internet connection keeps active and the email server doesn't terminate the connection. Else, FairEmail will automatically reconnect and resume the sync.

Not all messages have a message body, so not all messages can be downloaded.

User folder means not a system folder, but a user created folder.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
I will change it in the next release.
[Android Apps and Games] Justinbridou:
Hi!

I enabled sent report & debug.

Now my email list has several lines in orange for each email (I assume debug is correctly enabled).

I can still get kicked from the app, but I cannot see any error message.

Note: I'm kicked, but the app seem still available in recent apps, when I go back, it loads back inbox from top.

Did I missed something on how to get debug error message?

For fast scrolling : this bug is well designed, it's exactly when there are a lot of item that we need it :D.

For interrupted loading, it could be connexion issue, I may have played with wifi on/off.

For empty email... Does it mean I shall find 1 or 2 empty email in those folder? I'll have a look with thunderbird.

You should only temporarily enable debug mode, only to see the identifier.

I know this has been asked before and you turned it down for multiple questions being asked by users regarding # of Gmail messages

It looks awful (to me ) atleast to see intimations where all a message is stored. Is it possible to discreetly provide an option to turn it off maybe in some advanced settings or Gmail setup etc , so that I and other users can turn it off?

Please...
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
Since I have had too many questions about message counts not being correct: no, sorry. I have already done my best to show duplicate messages in a minimal way.

Easiest solution: use another provider.
[Android Apps and Games] fraschi51:
Why does someone use GMail instead of countless other better providers?
[Android Apps and Games] beeshyams:
Not really for me ...see below

That's because for me this mail ID has been logged in several places over last 40 years and some governmental and the bureaucracy and paperwork involved in changing is scary and intimidating
[Android Apps and Games] nadir husain:
Also a lot of us stick to Gmail , inspite of its idiosyncrasies, because we know it's going to be around and available. Look at AOL, Yahoo is irrelevant . The newer smaller ones could be here today, gone tomorrow. Then what?
[Android Apps and Games] beeshyams:
Agreed

[Android Apps and Games] jaholm:
Hi,

when send a mail using a signature with "Usenet signature convention" ON an additional unwanted \n is inserted.

So the mail reads:

--

sigtext...

"-- \n\nsigtext..."

Therefore I set "Usenet signature convention" OFF and defined my signature in this way:

--
sigtext...

"-- \nsigtext"

According to wiki the sigmarker string should be "-- \n"

So, can you please remove the additional and unwanted \n betrween sigmarker and sigtext. If anybody want an additional \n between sigmarker and sigtext they can insert it in the sigtext.
[Android Apps and Games] heinhuiz:
Amen.

Google has a close-to-perfect app for using Gmail. It is available in the Play Store and it's named Gmail.

I can't understand why people are so desperate to integrate one of the most insecure and privacy-unfriendly mail providers into a secure, privacy oriented app like FairEmail. It's like wrapping your house with thin foil and connect security camera's inside.
[Android Apps and Games] krispuniq:
Excellent App.. I tried it for a day and bought the PRO features to support more development. Never seen a better mail app.
[Android Apps and Games] heisert:
Maybe Gmail has the best Spam Filter on the World?

Maybe using multiple Mail Accounts;and Gmail is one of them?

Maybe he wants to use it?

Maybe he didnt wants to pay extra money for Email storage?

Maybe he likes Gmail?

Maybe he likes when Google reads the mails?
[Android Apps and Games] heinhuiz:
There's the catch. You just can't have everything for free, I guess.

When and where does FE show a message count which includes the duplicates?

For such a count in a confirmation popup you could display a text like "Move <n> message(s) and <m> duplicate(s) to Trash?" for m > 0.
[Android Apps and Games] upD8R:
Default action for lists?

I switched to FairEmail 2 weeks ago and also licensed there pro features. Excellent app!

The only thing I'm currently missing from AquaMail is some default action if I mark multiple mails in the list view.

In 95 percent of all cases I just delete multiple mails at once. So I'd appreciate a (configurable?) default action (in my case "delete") as soon as more than one mail is selected. At the moment you need to open the menu and select delete. I understand my proposal just saves one click but it would improve my personal workflow a lot ;)

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
Which leaves people wondering what those duplicates are if they are hidden.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
I don't think saving one tap is worth adding this.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
I will likely receive the Yubikey I donated myself soon, so the Yubikey loop will hopefully be solved next week.

A general advice to prevent provider lock-in: use your own (custom) domain name. Most providers supports this, sometimes for a small price.
[Android Apps and Games] heisert:
Sure it would. I missed it too.

For a year, it's a huge time saver + comfort (for me).

But you are the Boss :cowboy:
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
Besides that I like to keep things simple, there is a technical problem with this feature request: delete is not always possible and evaluating this with each selection change would significantly slow down things. As it is now, there is just one evaluation when tapping the 'more' button.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
One star ratings like "select and delete" do not work take some fun away from this about finished project :(

Do people not have any decency anymore by just asking first?

Maybe I am just getting to old for this kind of projects.
[Android Apps and Games] heisert:
I meant read mark as read (all).

Got multiple Accounts and after a long day, after checking the list it would very comfort to press short mark all as read.

As i said its only a comfort thing not a big issue.

There will always be some bad people and bad comments, especially in our times. We have the choice to focus on what we love, or what we hate. Just focus on the good side, don't let this poor guy touch your emotions. You made by yourself the best email app, and you've 4.9 rating. We all here support you and it weight far more than this non sense comment. Just ignore it , it deserves nothing more.

[Android Apps and Games] TheMadRuffian:
The anonymity of the internet is the reason. It gives people some ruthless audacity. But hey, we all know and encounter such people in our everyday lives and it is a no biggie to be bothered about.
[Android Apps and Games] TheMadRuffian:
When I tapped on the "Download all" button or the "Cloud" button, nothing happened. It is the first attachment I'm facing such an issue.

Device: Xiaomi Mi A1

Android version: 10

App version: 1.790
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
You are or have been using version 1.776 and the problem you reported should be fixed in the latest version.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
Please check the operations via the main navigation/hamburger menu. There should be one or more download operation. Any errors will be shown in this view too.
[Android Apps and Games] TheMadRuffian:
Yes, it was showing up on the operations menu. I was on mobile data and the downloading attachment was limited under settings. Thank you.

Is it possible to add a way to preview the attachment instantly? (Something similar to the 'eye' icon in Thunderbird)
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
What exactly would you like to preview?

Images are already shown below the message. Other attachment types, like PDF, require a specialized viewer app.
[Android Apps and Games] TheMadRuffian:
I was wondering something like a multi-purpose sandbox to view PDFs or bowse through all the images available in the mail. I understand that it might change the primary focus but would be a nice addition.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
There are plenty of apps that can do this for you.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
FairEmail wil not be available for Portugal and Spain in the Play store anymore due to too many unreasonable and/or unfair reviews.
[Android Apps and Games] ouzowtf:
Comprehensible, but dumb people are everywhere and in the end you have to block every country :rolleyes:
[Android Apps and Games] nadir husain:
They don't know what they lost:(
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
I don't think so. There are significant differences between countries. People from Portugal and Spain averagely reviewed bad and don't respond to my answers.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
They can anyways install the GitHub version.
[Android Apps and Games] nadir husain:
That's true but most people would go to the play store first when they are on the search for a new app.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
Yes, true, but then they are out of luck because I simply don't want to deal with this. I prefer to have positive things around me instead. Basically, it is caused by their own doing.

Most things are just a mindset. For example: the people who donate the minimum amount are the fastest with activating the pro features, almost without exception.
[Android Apps and Games] sethnet:
We do lose and some of us (I'm from Spain) know it.

In my case I don't worry because although I bought the Pro version through Google Play but I download the updates from GitHub. But, unfortunately, it is usual to find, when we do a review of an application in the blog, that has received criticism without any sense. And, above all, bad evaluations without asking, being informed and without answering the answers of the dev (more than once with the excuse of the language as if there were no applications to translate).
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
Were there any blogs with "criticism without any sense" about FairEmail? Or was this about other apps?

If there were: maybe you can comment on the blog.

Even if the app isn't available in the Play store anymore the pro features will keep being activated.
[Android Apps and Games] sethnet:
I was referring to criticisms of other applications.

I write in a Spanish blog (and before I have done it in others) and I also like to test applications. And when I do a search for new apps and notice the reviews in Google Play there are many nonsensical users who do not bother to even read how the app works. And that's when there's no 1 star saying "No está en español" (It's not in Spanish) ??

As for the Pro functions I was not worried, I knew they would still be active, but thank you very much for the clarification.
[Android Apps and Games] bonanza123:
Hi Marcel, I also would like to kindly ask for EWS support.

Maybe this library could be helpful?

https://github.com/alipov/ews-android-api
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
Exchange Web Services is being phased out:

https://techcommunity.microsoft.com...b-Services-EWS-API-for-Office-365/ba-p/608055

Microsoft promised Oauth for IMAP:

https://stackoverflow.com/a/58072053

And in fact this is already prepared in FairEmail ;)

Is there any particular reason why you need EWS?
[Android Apps and Games] maybeme2:
That's the real answer. If they weren't anonymous they'd be embarassed that they're revealing their ignorance.
[Android Apps and Games] TiTiB:
Nah, people are just getting dumber—and less concerned with others.
[Android Apps and Games] heisert:
Just playing with the settings of Fair Mail and found: double tab to read/unread a Mail. Nice! I think i have over seen so many options
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
Nice :)

A new option will be to remove the new message notifications on opening FairEmail ;)

I would appreciate it if you are using the Play store version of FairEmail if you reviewed FairEmail in the Play store.
[Android Apps and Games] TiTiB:
IMO, people who know about and use sources like GitHub are a lot more 'realistic' in their expectations about apps, and understanding of the correct feedback process. Also, it took some effort to be able to even learn that there are alternatives to Play Store—which almost every Android device is shipped with—so, it is not your every-day user, but the curious, adventurous, more experienced folks who gravitate away from Play Store.

I doubt that anyone here, when first using Android even had a clue about such things as xda, apkmirror, F-Droid, and the like. It was only because of experience and inquisitiveness that that we have come here. We were all 'born' with Play Store, but have grown way beyond that insular, stunted state, as others will too.
[Android Apps and Games] TheMadRuffian:
I thought of reviewing FairEmail at the PlayStore but FairEmail isn't showing up on the Asian Playstore :(
[Android Apps and Games] K-alz:
Someone please help me understand. I'm genuinely curious. If my email is a gmail or a yahoo, and we all know that they can see all of my emails regardless of the client, and also, they're stored on my computer, the ISP's server and the receiver's computer, how is a privacy email app like this one going to make my emails private? Again, I'm genuinely curious. I use the Samsung's email app and am interested in this app.

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
FairEmail cannot change the provider (but you can), but offers a number of features like encryption and detecting of tracking images to increase your privacy. Please see here for a small list:

https://github.com/M66B/FairEmail/blob/master/README.md#user-content-privacy-features

So, it is not only about your provider seeing your messages, but also about identifying phishing attempts and tracking in messages.

I'm using FairEmail with runbox IMAP, and it's working well so far. However, I've noticed that when I delete a message in my inbox in FairEmail and then go to my webmail or Thunderbird on desktop, it shows duplicates of the message I deleted in the trash. Is there a setting in FairEmail to disable this or is this an issue on runbox's end?

Thanks,

tosborn
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
Do you mean that the message was moved to trash (this is normal) or do you mean that the same message is multiple times in the trash folder?
[Android Apps and Games] tosborn:
The message appears multiple times in the trash folder.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
Before you delete the message, are there any duplicates shown?

Edit: I have just signed up for a Runbox trial account and trashed the welcome messages and I don't see any duplicate messages in the trash folder.
[Android Apps and Games] cobben:
When you have multiple devices syncing the same accounts and messages, you will inevitably get some anomalies because of the Time Warp caused by the delayed propagation of the syncing over the 'net and within the various devices.

It's like Schrödingers cat - both here and not here at the same time. :eek:

A corollated feature request:

A setting that always gives me a nice clean totally empty inbox to look at, no matter how many emails I may actually have there. :cowboy:
[Android Apps and Games] leptokurtosis:
I just installed the app and connected it via IMAP to my brand new gandi.net email, but it doesn't recognize any folders except the inbox, which means I can't compose or send messages. What can I do to fix this?
[Android Apps and Games] Dark_Eyes_:
Just bought the pro version and loving it so far. However, I noticed that no matter what I choose in settings, I get no sound nor vibration when getting a new mail. My watch vibrates though. EDIT: Nevermind, latest build from github is working.

Also, using on notification doesn't remove it from status bar even when the seeing is selected. Still not working with the latest github build :)

Other than that it's a great app, thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] maybeme2:
If I don't ask I'll never know.

In a phone app one can set a distinctive ringtone for specific contacts. Is something similar, a distinctive ringtone notification possible when an email arrives from a specific contact?

I am rooted on android pie. Maybe via MacroDroid or similar?

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] nadir husain:
If I understand you correctly , you can create a notification channel from the bell icon in FairEmail.
[Android Apps and Games] beeshyams:
Yes. Though I haven't tried distinctive notification. Here is my macro for announcing an important mail has arrived. You can add notification sounds and I am sure it will work. You need to use automation intent as trigger. It's mentioned somewhere in this thread.
