Just recently started using thunderbird to see how it would help managing múltiple Gmail accounts. Has anybody used the app version? Is it good? Bad?
I’ve been using K-9 for a while, works great, didn’t realise it was related to thunderbird.
Mozilla hired the dev, and K9 will be renamed to Thunderbird next month.
Interesting.
One or two years ago Mozilla hired the main developer of K-9 Mail. The dev previously raised enough donations to work on K-9 Mail for a while and modernize it after not having an official release for years.
Same. At some point had jumped on librem mail as it had forked k9 to update the interface, but have been back for a few years now.
I’ve been using it for a couple years with two accounts. It’s great imo, highly recommended
K-9 is simply the best email client on android, I’ve been using it since 2015
Not tried the app version. Been using Fairemail for a while now, since k9 was unmaintained.
Fairemail is well maintained. Quick. Supports multiple accounts very well. Loads of features (could be a downside for those who like things simple). Designed with security and privacy as top priorities right from the start. Open source development. For a long time its been the best email client on Android IMHO.
+1 for fairmail. Never have I seen an app so functional yet so ugly at the same time.
I moved from K9 to FairEmail too, and I think I’ll be staying as long as it’s maintained. I particularly like the focus on privacy.
I’ve been using it for many years with my four mailboxes and I am very happy with it!
I think I’ve been using K-9 Mail for 10+ years or something. The settings were kind of all over the place but it has always been one of the email clients with the most features.
Fairmail has a ton of features. I left k9 when it seemed like it was abandoned.
I am using both now that it is maintained again.
Wow that’s a long time! I think I’m gonna go ahead and try it
I do. It suffice.
I have 4 accounts and it works as it should. Lots of options. It’s a complete mail system

Yes, I use it and its worked well for years. It even supports Oauth
Hangs down, the best email client for IMAP.
For me it’s good, let’s me leave emails on the server so my desktop can read them too. Let’s me reply below or above and compose in ascii. Doesn’t impose ways of working I don’t want.
K-9 is being used as the base for Thunderbird for Android but it isn’t there yet. FairEmail is a lot closer in functionality at the moment.
I use Thunderbird for Gmail (among other accounts) and it has to regularly compress my Gmail box, which none of the Android clients do - in my experience, Aqua Mail, K-9 and FairEmail all struggle with a decent sized Gmail mailbox after a while.
Yes, works well for me. My work uses GMail and K-9 supports it. I don’t have the Play Store and K-9 supports OAuth.
Ofc. This is the way,
