[CLOSED][APP][5.0+] FairEmail - Fully featured, open source, privacy oriented email app

[Giocarro]

And 'mark as spam' too

Yep, did that, too: some people just don't put effort learning a new app, but it is their problem, not of the app!

Try not showing images and tapping on the image.

This also doesn't work for me. I could send you the (newsletter) for having a look. At least I didn't find a way to open the images externally nor to zoom them beyond screen width (which is not much).

What exactly is meant with the recents screen?

The recent apps screen is the Android screen to go to active apps quickly. In other words, to switch between apps.

Yes, please send me the raw message file (do not forward the message), but please indicate which image to look at.

So the screen where one can slide through the currently used apps, after pressing the button unsurprisingly named Recents you mean. I have FE showing up there since epoch. I can't see a FE shortcut under Recent apps using the Home button or in the app drawer however - hence my confusion.

Edit: LOS18.1

Maybe you have it disabled in the FE-Settings (privacy)?

Aha! That's it. You see, there are too many options . With that one set I still see the app screen but it is blanked out.

If you don't want it to be blanked out, you might need to allow screenshots to be taken in the privacy settings

That's the same setting.

Thanks! I just sent the formular.

As a workaround I was thinking about creating a second app which just launches FairEmail and which can be selected as email app in my case. But if there is already something to test I will very gladly test.

@neodin Did you receive my message with a link to a test version? Is there any change?

Version 1.1822 is available on GitHub now and in the Play store test program after Google's approval.

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

This release fixes all reported bugs, and includes workarounds for Verizon's new email servers (Yahoo, AOL, etc), which doesn't support common IMAP commands anymore. It seems only a small percentage of the accounts have been migrated to a new email server infrastructure. There is one nice thing though: IMAP IDLE (push messages) is after decades finally available!

I was on v.1811 and was getting this error when deleting an email:

" Z13 NO [CANNOT] STORE Message sequence number based write is not supported on this mailbox"

I just updated to the v.1822 from github and the issue seems to be resolved

BTW: The (formerly) affected accounts were in my ATT account (using yahoo! as I understand).

I spent quite some time to debug and workaround this server bug. I have good contact with Verizon and they are looking into this bug. Moreover, they shared documentation of what is coming.

Version 1.1823 1.1824 is available on GitHub now and in the Play store test program after Google's approval.

Changelog/download:

[M66B]

Version 1.1824 will show small thumbnails for image attachments in the message editor.

I like to hear your opinion about this.

 

[M66B]

Also new, if you don't use the Play store version, is that you can block the address in the Return-Path header via the report spam dialog, which was suggested by @fraschi51

Version 1.1826 is available on GitHub now and in the Play store test program after Google's approval.

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

Blocking the Return-Path header has been removed and replaced by evaluating the address in the message classifier. The reason is that the Return-Path header more often than not leads to an intermediate party having sent the message, like Amazon SES or Sendgrid, and therefore most often isn't directly related to the sender (spammer) of the message.

Version 1.1827 is available on GitHub now and in the Play store test program after Google's approval.

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

This version was released to fix forwarding messages as attachments.

There were some changes in the quick setup wizard and in the debug info. Therefore I like you to check if the quick setup wizard for other providers still works okay and if the debug info still works okay as well (long press 'Support' in the navigation menu = left side menu). Please do not send me the debug info, it is enough to know if the debug info is successfully being collected.

What is the meaning of 'Added $$tls$ rule condition'?

Not long ago checking if messages were sent via encrypted connections was added. A green shield will be shown if this check is enabled in the receive settings. With this new filter rule condition you can also perform some rule action.
