Hey friends. Recommend me a simple, competent, email client for Windows that supports multiple IMAP accounts.

TBH I was happy with Windows Mail but New Outlook wants to store all my non-MS emails in the MS-Cloud and I'm not having that.

I used to use @thunderbird way back - is that safe from the AI craze?

I installed the latest version of #Thunderbird today after a long time, and it's really great. However, I personally miss important features like a 'from-full-address' column or the implementation of the ManageSieve protocol.

Kudos @thunderbird

#Google is turning #GMail from an Email provider into a website.
No more access via standard email protocols such as #IMAP and #POP

The final stage of #enshittification . Locking the users in.

I wonder how they want to get rid of SMTP as stated in the support posting.
I guess this means outgoing SMTP to forward mail to a real email server.

I guess without relaying I won't ever receive any notifications Google services send to me again as I don't use the Gmail website.
I host my own Email server for many years, thank you.

Timeline for transition

Summer of 2024:

If you (or your users) try to connect to a less secure app for the first time, you will not be able to. This restriction includes third-party apps that still use basic authentication, such as CalDAV, CardDAV, IMAP, SMTP, and POP, to access Gmail, Google Calendar, and Contacts. If you’re not trying to connect for the first time, you will be able to continue using the apps until they’re turned off.
In the Google Admin console, you will not be able to access the turn on and off setting for less secure apps.
Users will not be able to turn IMAP on or off in their Gmail settings.

Dnešního rána jsem se rozhodl skoncovat s Outlookem a přejít i na Macu na Thunderbird.

A to potom co mi Outlook udělal v mailech na 2 ze 4 schránek zřejmě nějakou jeho chybou IMAPu paseku viz. screenshot 🙈

In fact, I learnt a lot about how #Thunderbird and @mozilla are actually related, and I always thought it's a hardwired #Mozilla product just like #Firefox.

I'm really looking forward to the improvements in Supernova and also future updates to #K9Mail. I used to be a #GMail user but ran into performance problems on older devices and under bad networking conditions. Not a problem for good old #IMAP! :)


Bisher: Bei der Nutzung der mobilen Outlook App (iOS, Android) speichert Microsoft die Zugangsdaten zu dem E-Mail-Konto (einschließlich des Passworts) auf eigenen Servern, verarbeitet alle ein- und ausgehenden E-Mails auf eigenen Servern und hat damit vollen Einblick sowohl in Inhalts- als auch in alle Metadaten.

Neu: Jetzt exklusiv auch für Mac-Rechner verfügbar! 😵

PSA: We're aware of an issue affecting #Thunderbird users using #IMAP to connect to certain #Microsoft account servers (for example: outlook.office365.com).

These users are receiving an error message that says "User is authenticated but not connected."

We believe this is caused by Microsoft running certain services with broken #IPv6 functionality.

WORKAROUND: Disable IPv6 networking in Thunderbird's advanced config.
