Here's a screenshot of #K9Mail's current message view. And two more showing what the NEW message design will look like! π
We've added some comments in the margins explaining some of the new features and UI elements.
Thunderbird for Android is taking shape, and it should be here before Thunderbird Supernova releases next summer!
(Note: This is by no means final, still a lot of polish and work to do)

in reply to Thunderbird: Free Your Inbox • • •I'm sad server search dissapeared recently from my K-9. I only use phone for emails when AFK, so only few mails now and then get to the local store in the phone.
Any plans to bring it back?

in reply to fileneed • • •@fileneed Server search is still there and works pretty much like it always did. But, we only support it for IMAP accounts, and only for a single folder at a time (not aggregated folders like the unified inbox). f
First go to the folder, perform a local search, then tap the "magnifying glass with a cloud" icon to trigger the server-side search.
Hope this helps!

in reply to Thunderbird: Free Your Inbox • • •I don't like it at all. I prefer the K-9 mail design, it is 500% more understandable right now. Hope you can correct all the design in this thunderbird android.
PD: the header is overloaded, there are more buttons in the mail and that sticker saying the mail name isn't very helpful

in reply to Thunderbird: Free Your Inbox • • •This new design looks a lot prettier, and the text styling seems a lot more readable (larger line spacing ftw), but I do think that the header takes up too much space compared to K9 today which seems more focused on the content. Maybe there could be a compact mode that makes the header much smaller?
All that being said, I β€οΈ all the work and backing that Thunderbird is putting into K9 mail.

in reply to Thunderbird: Free Your Inbox • • •I'd like a nice threaded view without the step in between. Just like Gmail has, basically message cards in a list view you can tap to expand. One less level of navigation.
I mean basically everything should look like Gmail app.

in reply to CubeOfCheese • • •@cubeofcheese "Thunderbird Ryan" is the name that the recipient (the user of the app in this screenshot) has given their account.
And Alessandro both sent and received that email, which is probably why you're confused π

in reply to PrivacyFirst • • •@reboot46 Right now, K-9 utilizes OpenKeychain. (more info: docs.k9mail.app/en/current/secβ¦)
However, our plan is to included native OpenPGP functionality at some point, but not right away.
Keep an eye on our roadmap: developer.thunderbird.net/planβ¦

in reply to Thunderbird: Free Your Inbox • • •"WARNING: This software is no longer actively developed."
They haven't published any new version or security fixes at least since May 2021, and had no changes in the repo since August 2021. Why would any non-technical person use software this old? It is not maintained for almost a year and a half.
It seems to me like a potential major attack vector.

Unknown parent • • •@xinomilo @fell Maybe you're not thinking about the fact that using Thunderbird for your Gmail account eliminates a few things:
-Ads in Gmail
-Extensive and creepy tracking
-Complete lack of customization
We think that DOES give users some freedom. And if your argument is they should just ditch Gmail, that's not easy for some people, for a variety of valid reasons.
