I'm glad I asked. I never explored or knew what that bell icon meant or was for. I will check it out.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

---------- Post added at 05:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:41 AM ----------

Thank you very much. I will explore that option too although the bell icon and notification channel might posibly be simpler.

Thanks again.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
You should go into the account settings and update the system folder selection:

Setup, step 1, manage, tap account, at the bottom

FairEmail depends on the provider sending the right information to recognize the system folders. If the system folders are there, but not recognized by FairEmail, this is a shortcoming of Gandi.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
Tapping on the summary notification won't remove it be default, but there is a setting for just this. Tapping on a single message notification will open the message and mark the message read and therefore remove the corresponding notification. You can disable automatically marking read in the advanced account settings.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
Yes, you can, tap on the little bell icon in the addresses section to create and manage a notification channel for the sender of a message. A recent Android version is required for this.
[Android Apps and Games] gc01:
Wow, I was not aware of the capability ... pretty awesome!
[Android Apps and Games] z99vwEfK:
I have one account with gandi in FE and FE recognizes all my folders
[Android Apps and Games] Dark_Eyes_:
Yes, I disabled automatically marking read on expanding for my account. Using the option to remove notification when tapping on it doesn't remove it from the statusbar. I prefer to choose manually to mark the message as read, but I don't want the notifications to stay in statusbar forever.

Also, a small feature request. Can you add swiping on messages in trash to delete forever. Actually in the trash folder swiping for deleting doesn't work, only for archiving.

EDIT: Spoke too soon. Sound and vibration work for new mail when I have my headphones on (wireless), but don't work when I don't have them. I see the notification pop up on the statusbar, but no sound or vibration. Pretty weird...
[Android Apps and Games] Dark_Eyes_:
Double post, sorry
[Android Apps and Games] maybeme2:
FairEmail is amazing. And I was right. I was expecting to be admonished for asking too much from an email app and if I had not asked, I would have never known.

Thanks Marcel.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
The next version will also support removing single message notifications on tap.

Swiping to permanently (=irreversible) delete is not a good idea IMHO.

It seems to me that there is problem in your Android version with sound/vibrations for notifications. Note that there is a known problem with some MIUI versions, for which there is a workaround settings in the notification options (only available on MIUI as last option).
[Android Apps and Games] Dark_Eyes_:
First, thank you for your support and dedication. I really appreciate it and it's one of the reason I decided to go with your app.

My apologies about the notifications not working. It turns out to be a bug with my Xposed module. I have never experienced it before, but your app works great when I disabled it. I'll have to look into that later.

As for the support for removing single message notifications, I am very grateful and can't wait for it!

Lastly, about the swiping to permanently delete, IMHO it shouldn't be a big deal. After all, you have to be in the trash folder to permanently delete the message, which means you would have to accidently delete it first from inbox, then go to trash and accidentally delete it a second time. That seems a bit unlikely. Maybe add an undo message bar or add an option in settings with a warning for extra safety? It's the only feature I'm missing :) Thanks for considering it.
[Android Apps and Games] tosborn:
There aren't any duplicates shown before I delete the message.

I just sent myself an email using the runbox webmail. I received it on FairEmail, and deleted the message using FairEmail. After logging back in to my runbox webmail, the trash folder shows two copies of the email that I deleted. Then, opening FairEmail again, I refreshed and opened the email in my trash folder. It had a "duplicate in trash" label when I opened it.

Again, this doesn't seem to happen when I use Thunderbird to delete an email.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
As said before, I have tried with a trial Runbox account and I cannot reproduce this.
[Android Apps and Games] tosborn:
Thanks for your help - I think I've fixed it now. I disconnected then reconnected the account to FairEmail and used the stock settings instead (with imap.runbox.com as the host rather than mailbox.runbox.com) and the messages are no longer duplicating.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
If you send yourself a message, there will be two messages, one in the inbox and a duplicate in the sent folder. Deleting this twin will result in two messages in de trash folder, which doesn't seem illogical to me ...
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
This will be possible in the next version, but you'll have to confirm each delete.
[Android Apps and Games] Chris.B.:
Hello,

I discovered your app through Crowdin around 2 weeks ago. After tests, it will become my main mail app : lots of useful features, open source and light memory impact.

I use aliases with my own domain like several persons here. I have a solution for all my use-cases but I have a question about one point.

Here is an example to help to understand my point.

I can receive an email on the following addresses: abbankone@domain.com, abbanktwo@..., abshopone@... and so on

I found the option allowing me to change the sender address(it's ok with my email provider) but this solution isn't very friendly.

Could it be possible that the sender address is automatically set with the alias address which was the recipient in the original email ? Is there a setting to activate this ?

Maybe it's also possible by creating one identity by alias but I try to use one email by service. It isn't an option for me to create hundred alias in the app.

I prefer write each time the alias address than create hundred alias in the app.

I searched in your FAQ and in this thread, sorry if the answer of my question is here, I didn't find it.

Thanks for your work !
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
This should happen, but a bug is preventing this, which will be fixed in the next release.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
I want to express that I am more than a little disappointed by a series of bad reviews, some of people who have asked a lot of questions before :(
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
I have just released

beta

version 1.791

Changelog/download:

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

The Yubikey I received has a defect, so I was not able to fix the Yubikey loop :(

I am going to take some more distance from this project. Fixing bugs will be the only thing on my to do list for now.
[Android Apps and Games] nadir husain:
Don't let these morons get you down M66B! They know not what they are doing. Sadly we encounter such people with such mindsets in every aspect of our lives but the best we can do is to ignore them and keep living. This app is the best email app on the store now and let those who appreciate the work you have done reign supreme. Keep going and the jerks will become less and less visible ! All I can say is bravo!
[Android Apps and Games] heisert:
Stop reading the negative reviews in the Play Store. It is your precious lifetime! You can do nothing against inappropriate ratings.

Btw: i didnt see many bad ratings (german Play Store)
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
That's because people from Germany are quite decent in my experience.
[Android Apps and Games] heisert:
Or your app is not so bad. Most of the bad ratings are users who already have problems with the Mail-Server setup.

To be fair, not a problem for us (but i need some minutes too) , but perhaps too complicated for the average user.

Most people didnt know "IMAP" or STARTTLS.

A normal user get a working Gmail out of the Box.

Of course you could consider to make it even more easier.

But that would take a lot of time again; also not protect against bad ratings.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
I think the quick setup is better than in any other email app. It includes even a mini port scanner. So, I don't see much room to improve the main setup.
[Android Apps and Games] heinhuiz:
I don't understand. Do you mean that in the Play Store of a specific country, one only can see reviews coming from that same country? So only Spanish people see the Spanish reviews?
[Android Apps and Games] z99vwEfK:
I am a user since day one (also a long time user of netguard) and I really think this is by far the best email client, no matter which platform we talk about. I think your kind of user base is mostly people who doesn't even use play store. I don't think reviews on play store is something anyone should care about (even tho I absolutely understand why u do that as a developer). even when I used play store I've never ever red any reviews since I always assumed 95% of them is bought or made by bots. one thing tho that I find really sad is that u based on only (I guess and hope) bad reviews from a specific country assumes that the people in the country is bad people. I'm from a northern europe country so this is not anything that affects me, thats not the point. but I can for sure say that I would think twice if I would like support a project with that kind of view of people..

edit: you have a rate of 4.8/5 stars, that's really good, that's nothing to complain about. theres not many apps with that high star-rate. that should be something to be proud of
[Android Apps and Games] Chris.B.:
Thanks for your fast answer !

I just bought the Pro Features in your app and posted a 5/5 deserved review for your app !

I see that several French people have problems with their Free account whereas you implemented a solution. French always complain, even when they are a part of the problem...

You can't do anything, unfortunately only a few of them will take the time to read your answer with the proposed help.

I hope that they won't stop your motivation about this project !
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
The default will be as it is now, so no worries.

Edit: I think I will go for a small vertical bar to keep things minimalistic.
[Android Apps and Games] heinhuiz:
Great idea!
[Android Apps and Games] m0d:
Is there currently a way to see operations pending?

If not, an operations list would be great.

I have no folders to sync (all manual sync), but notification shows 6 operations pending:

So, I am curious to see what exactly are they.

A great example would be fx file explorer - https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1253399, it has tasks list in drawer, where you can see pending/current/completed operations and clear list:
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
Enable debug mode in the advanced settings and there will be an operations menu. You can long press an operation to delete it, but it is interesting to know why the operations were not executed in the first place. In the FAQ you can find a description of the operations.
[Android Apps and Games] m0d:
Probably due to loss of wifi signal. But, after reconnecting. Operations did not execute. Still pending.

I would keep operations in drawer all the time, not just in debug:
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
Maybe you have set the associated account or folders to not synchronizing? Or the folder/account is not connected in some way.

Operations are an internal data structure, which should not be shown normally. I see no point to bother casual users with this. It would raise unnecessary questions only. The operation count in the status bar notification will be removed eventually too.
[Android Apps and Games] m0d:
Here is where having options come in handy. Advanced user checkbox in setup?

In the case of mail, I think users would want to know what oprations are pending, what failed, what got lost in operations queue. If sync did not complete users should know, not inly thst it failed but which folders did not sync - all folders? Just 2? ...
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
I don't agree, since this is useful only if things are not working as they should. The operations in the queue are processed whenever there is a connection and if something is wrong with a message, which is only really interesting for outgoing messages, there will be an error message. It is just like with the other debug info: it is only interesting in case of problems = bugs.
[Android Apps and Games] norair1997:
Well, maybe it was too rough. These are just some small details that needs to be fixed. For example look at the post from m0d (#1001 )...The arrow and text aren't on the same line/height... Overall it could be a little cleaner...the lines that seperate sections in the settings menu could be a litte thinner, and maybe a litte darker...

I am also not a designer, but my designer friends say that i have a very good designer-eye ...
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
All arrows are aligned with the title and substitute. The debug operations menu, normally not visible, has no subtitle.

The separator lines in the setup screen (assuming you meant that) are one device pixel thick and really cannot be thinner.

Anything else?
[Android Apps and Games] m0d:
You are doing it wrong,

Title is aligned fine;

You are taking screenshot out of context.

Helpful would be to do it properly not Random comments
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
About the separator lines in the navigation menu: these are thicker, but IMHO in balance with the icon size. Any opinions on this?
[Android Apps and Games] heinhuiz:
I agree.

If we start looking at details like that, I would propose to always indent the sender and the subject in the lists, whether or not there is a sender picture or an attachment.

In the message view, it would look a bit better if the star was aligned with the arrow and the sender with the 'FairEmail' text in the header.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
Both would be a waste of space IMHO.
[Android Apps and Games] heinhuiz:
I know what you mean, but on the other side, it would look cleaner / less cluttered. As one of my design teachers used to say: "Don't be afraid of white space."
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
I think you are exaggerating with being cluttered. The action bar and the content below it are two different things with a different function, which do not need to be aligned. Look at other apps and you'll see this is almost never aligned.
[Android Apps and Games] heinhuiz:
It's just an idea (and you've asked for ideas - it's your app, do what you want). The other point, about the indentation of the sender and subject in the list you might really want to consider.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
It is not about being my app. It is about finding the right middle ground.

I think it is important to keep as much a possible space for the subject because these are often on the long side.

At least in my case there are just occasional contact photos, so it would be a waste of space to display an open space in most cases. The from address has a bigger font, for good reasons, and tends to take up a lot of space already.
[Android Apps and Games] heinhuiz:
[MENTION=2799345]M66B[/MENTION], why is FairEmail attempting to read my android_id?
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
To verify purchases.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
I am not assuming that people who rate bad are bad. It is just that if the average rating for a country is low, it makes no sense to distribute the app in that country anymore.

Note that anyone can still download FairEmail from GitHub.
[Android Apps and Games] maybeme2:
Question:

In the unified inbox, if I select several messages, 'hide' is not one of the available options. Is that by design?
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:

[Android Apps and Games] upD8R:
Sorry to bother again but my question was missed. Or did I miss the response. Sorry, if yes ;)
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
Copy: no

Move: yes, via multiple selection (long press a message).
[Android Apps and Games] upD8R:

Move I found, excellent feature and certainly a USP on a mobile email client! I think copy is rarely used, I can workaround here somehow ...
[Android Apps and Games] jaholm:
The unwanted \n ( https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=80665881&postcount=10039 ) is already in Zby"
[Android Apps and Games] fraschi51:
Here is no second line feed after the signature separator. Are you sure that the signature you defined does not start with a carriage return (view or post HTML part)?
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
In the source code there is also no second new line being added:

https://github.com/M66B/FairEmail/b...ava/eu/faircode/email/MessageHelper.java#L335
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
[MENTION=7193240]jaholm[/MENTION] looking into this a bit deeper: the extra newline is likely due to a HTML paragraph in the signature. This is needed to let the signature separator be recognized in HTML messages too. For example Gmail does not recognize the signature without this.
[Android Apps and Games] jaholm:
Oh yes I see,

the sig is stored in HTML. I have to tap on 'Edit as HTML' and have to delete all the HTML stuff excluding <br /> which is needed for a \n.

ps: I hate HTML mail :mad: and only sent plain text!
[Android Apps and Games] Tonecontrol:
I'm really liking Fair Email! One problem I'm having is when in the Spam folder I would like to mark an email Not Spam. But instead it appears my only option is to Move To another account. I have three GMX accounts but my Move To choices all show only .gmx and I'm unable to further identify the accounts. Thank you!
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
There is an inbox icon in the message action bar to quickly move a not spam message to the inbox of the account.

In the account settings you can change the account name, so you can more easily distinguish your accounts for move and other actions.
[Android Apps and Games] Tonecontrol:
Thank you very much!
[Android Apps and Games] fraschi51:
Is it possible to recognize somehow in the message list of the unified inbox without opening the mail whether a mail went out to a certain recipient or arrived from him? In both cases (only) the mail partner is shown, but not the direction, right?
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
FairEmail will show an icon before the subject to indicate the folder type in the unified inbox if the message is stored in another folder than an inbox.
[Android Apps and Games] fraschi51:
This only works here in the inbox folder of the corresponding account, but not in the unified inbox. Could this be?
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
It works for me in the unified inbox too.
[Android Apps and Games] fraschi51:
Hmm, here are my screenshots (hint: I recieved the mail also as BCC):
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
The highlighted message is in the inbox, so not outgoing.
[Android Apps and Games] fraschi51:
But in the account inbox (left screenshot) there is the outgoing symbol.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
The unified inbox shows the

folder type

a message is stored in, not if a message is

outgoing

.

In which folder is the BCC message stored and which message is the newest?
[Android Apps and Games] fraschi51:
Then the account inbox is more meaningful in this case.
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
Can you please contact me for a test version?
[Android Apps and Games] fraschi51:
This version now also displays the output arrow in the unified inbox. Thanks a lot!

On latest version. Clicking on an external link via "choose app" or "yes" doesn't work. It briefly opens in browser and closes back to mail
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
If the browser opens, this is likely caused by a problem with the browser. Try to force stop the browser via the Android settings.
[Android Apps and Games] beeshyams:
Sorry.. Just found out the reason. Misbehaving Xposed module. Please ignore

Edit : As FYI to others. Some Xposed modules load Chrome, which doesn't like changes to file system and spawns a zygote process that either forces Chrome to freeze and/or device to lag. Developer of that module needs to prevent Chrome from loading

PS: I don't understand a word of what I wrote above but that's how a developer put it more or less and fixed his module. Posting it as it may help someone

Sorry for another post,

when the app starts there is only one column in landscape, when I click on a mail it will go to 2 columns. Can cou make it so that it is immidiatly 2 columns after starting the app?
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
There is a display setting for this.
[Android Apps and Games] caprihome:
Yes, use 2 columns in landscape mode, but only if you select a mail, not when app starts.
[Android Apps and Games] gc01:
Thank you Marcel for your patience, willingness to listen all while being thoughtful and maintaining strong opinions. You've created something really awesome.

It is oh so very much easier to critique and comment - and so much harder to create from nothing.

Thank you!!
[Android Apps and Games] M66B:
FairEmail will start in one column mode in landscape mode (if the screen is wide enough) and viewing a message will be done in a second column. If you don't like this, you can disable it in the display settings.

Very well said! It is indeed an awesome app created by a man with vision, persistence and a rare ability to sift the unique from the ordinary!
