I do not really get along with #geary on my #pinephone - actually I deinstalled it.
#Email still is my main communication medium and I do have lots of #imap folders and server side filter rules.
I've gotten along well with #kmail and am using #thunderbird on the desktop at the moment. But I do not have the slightest idea what to use on my pinephone.
Any suggestion?
A web frontend with a light and for mobile optimized interface could be a solution also ( if it'd be foss for selfhosting).
@chrichri Other than #Geary, sadly there just doesn't seem to be a #Pinephone email app at this time. That said, a number of the FOSS webmail clients work decently well, eg #Nextcloud #Mail. I haven't tried it, but I imagine #RainLoop would probably also work decently.
There is word that one of the main #PlasmaMobile devs is working on a lightweight KDE email client for #MobileLinux, too.
Hey, thanks for your suggestions.
I already installed nextcloud mail and it doesn't seem to work too well with my server: very slow on my desktop and even worth on the phone.
I'll definitly look into rainloop. What works without being very modern nor maintained seems to be squirrelmail.
rainloop really looks promising. Just tried the demo in epihany and it worked great, is feature rich and looks good.
Would'nt guess it is a web app if I'd seen it first in fullscreen...
I guess I need to test it with my own installation.
@chrichri Cool! Let me know how it works out. I'm looking for a decent #Pinephone #email option, myself... my needs aren't particularly extensive, although I do love tags. Ok, the one thing that I *would* love, but is highly unlikely, would be a webmail with #Thunderbird like filters/automation. First things first though, read, reply, search and mark favorite...
Well, running in Firefox fullscreen it just looks like a mail client.
Only drawback: when reading a message it automatically marks it read which is a behaviour you can't configure.
I installed #rainloop with no problems at all in an already running nginx in a new virtual server. It just needs php and some php extensions.
I'm just starring at the source to find out where I can stop it to mark messages as read...
@chrichri Yeah, #Squirrelmail is far more lightweight. #Nextcloud #Mail does need a pretty beefy server, so I wouldn't recommend it on an #RPi or similar. There was another one... #Sogo? that someone mentioned last time I was griping about the lack of decent, modern, #FOSS #webmail options. It looked OK, and had a mobile web interface.
