Re: K-9 Mail is looking for funding
#2K-9 is a really great mail app for android! In my opinion it's the best app if you want to use a custom SMTP/IMAP server instead of using a solution like hotmail/google/etc.
It also has PGP support (with the help of OpenKeyChain to manage certificates) that works great! There are no other well known solutions for applications supporting PGP in Android; this is huge.
People that either want to avoid walled gardens or need proper encryption to their mail need to support this project!

#3I'm surprised there's no work being done on the UI on the roadmap, K-9 looks like an app from the "Ice Cream Sandwich" days of Android.
With that being said, K-9 is the best Android app I've seen for mail that isn't made by Google.
edit: it seems the work has already been done, thanks for the correction.

Have you looked at the beta versions yet? The UI was overhauled over basically the last 1.5 years and the points mentioned in the blog post are the bits missing to release that as a stable version (IMAP IDLE mostly): https://github.com/k9mail/k-9/releases
I've been running the betas since more than a year without any problems whatsoever. (If you don't need push obviously)

I mostly agree, but I'm quite liking Fairemail [1]

#8K9 used to feel like a great app, but I think it has been creaking around the edges for a while.
I've thrown in a few quid.
There isn't anything to rival it so I hope it gets some more developer time.

#9Love this app. Recently, it became less and less usable, with deal breaker bugs like mails not sending reliably or at all.
So I'm going to donate, because this app is fantastic and I really want it to keep existing.
