A few seconds of time here and there can really add up! When you need to send an email NOW, you don't want to backtrack through menus...

So we've added a floating Compose button to K-9 Mail version 6.500 -- available now to test in Beta, on both F-Droid and Google Play.

(Learn how to access the Beta here https://forum.k9mail.app/t/how-do-i-become-a-beta-tester/68)

@zwovierzwo Yes. Unlike stable versions, beta versions on F-Droid are not marked with a “Suggested” label. You have to manually select such a version to install it.

To get update notification for non-suggested versions you need to check ‘Settings > Expert mode > Unstable updates’ in the F-Droid app.

Can I be critical with you guys? I really love what you're doing, but I dislike floating compose buttons. Especially here. Most of the time I want to read emails and not write them. And when I write one, it's most likely a reply. I think composing a fresh new email isn't needed often enough to warrant an extra floating always visible button.

@rafal06 @fell You can always be critical with us, especially when you're being polite and constructive like this.

I'm passing your great feedback on to the team.

@zwovierzwo It isn't called Thunderbird yet. That transition will happen this summer.

...and it's big! And Red!!
As said, please make optional - and a little smaller.

I like it! But it looks like you deleted the large widget I was using. It disappeared from my home screen and I can't add it back.
