I have been using Outlook for the longest time and have tried FairEmail a couple of times and simply deleted it. Tried sticking through it for about a month and I'll be sticking with it for a good long time now :)

Thunderbird!

[–] CaldeiraG@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Patiently waiting for Thunderbird on mobile with k-9 so Gmail it is atm

[–] xill47@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

On Android I use Re:Work, like interface the best. Before that I have used previous app from the same developer (I think it was Nine mail?).

On Windows I really disliked Thunderbird, so currently testing out emClient.

[–] colonial@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago
  • On my desktop: GNOME Evolution - but only because my university uses Outlook w/ Exchange (cringe) and the UI is slightly more tolerable than Thunderbird.
  • On my phone: I just use the baked-in Samsung Mail app.

In terms of provider, I used to use Gmail for my personal, but got tired of Big G scraping my correspondence. I tried Proton, but its integration story is a complete joke (you can upload your calendar and contacts but there's no DAV support, their IMAP bridge is a non-standard-compliant dumpster fire that doesn't work with half the clients I tried...) so I ended up on Fastmail.

[–] techgearwhips@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Protonmail connected to my domain

[–] wgs@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 year ago

Been using mutt for years, and I still love it. But getting it to works is more and more of a pain nowadays, and I find myself using whatever webmail my company uses (right now O365). For personnal emails, mutt on the desktop, and a selfhosted roundcube for when I don't have a client.

[–] hetscop@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

neomut, because I have linux brain damage

[–] somedaysoon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

On Mobile: K-9

On Desktop: Claws Mail

[–] deanne@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

i'm just using tutanota since they don't work with 3rd party clients

[–] Stroopwafel1@feddit.nl 2 points 1 year ago

Protonmail is the way

[–] _haha_oh_wow_@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

Web portals. I use web portals.

[–] styx@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I ❤️ FairMail. It is so customizable and versatile, I even bought the pro version for support.

[–] popemichael@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Just remember what the Magic 8-ball says when you drink the water inside it… "Outlook is not good!"

Really, though, I know the 'me' of about 20 years ago would be shocked to hear this, but the whole Microsoft suite with Outlook is pretty comfortable to run and use. I use it when hosting websites for my business, and it's always worked how I needed it.

Beyond that, I used Thunderbird for years and that's my go-to client when I want to go free. It's easy to set up and people usually love using a Mozilla product.

[–] kampang@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Been using K-9 Mail because they support OpenPGP. Also, their user interface is miles better than FairEmail's.

[–] Stargazer8224@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

Big fan of outlook tbh, it works well and both on iPad and android

[–] TheThinker@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Literally just started using k9 mail on my phone and it is amazing. It just does all of the setup for you.

[–] aluminium@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Either k9 or the native email client (Samsung Email, LG Email, ...) when they have a good Systemwide integration.

[–] LeHappStick@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

gmail emails

[–] luna@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I use Tutanota's clients, and enjoy it. Haven't had any issues, was a great replacement to the unencrypted privacy-invasive Gmail and Google Calendar, sorting to folders has been even more convenient

[–] Srootus@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

I've migrated from just using a gmail account to using Anonaddy which point towards a Tutanota email. The migration was PAINFUL, but glad I persisted and went through with it.

[–] RanchOnPancakes@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Web based only here. I have multiple address though so the "client" varies. Outlook, gmail, Proton.

[–] Creat@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 year ago

Careful if you're using Outlook on Android. From what I've read, it doesn't actually locally handle non-exchange accounts like IMAP or POP3 (why are you using POP3 though). It's done on Microsoft's servers, so your basically giving Microsoft your e-mails. I'm not sure what kind of access they get to them from the privacy agreement you probably just clicked past.

So Outlook in Android users Microsoft servers to fetch your mail, and the client just shows whatever the server got.

Gmail. Never put much thought about it tbh

[–] dutchkimble@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I've probably tried every client out there and repeatedly keep exploring, but I always end back on Newton

[–] ggnoredo@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago
[–] Kirb00@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I've been using Spark and remained using it especially now that they have a desktop client it's just so clean.

[–] slugworth@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Apple Mail on Mac and iPhone, because it’s simple and it works well.

[–] Crakila@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I am with Google Workspace, so most of the time I would use the website, but if I had to use something, it would be Thunderbird on Desktop and Spark on Mobile.

[–] tripplehelix@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I use K-9 on mobile and Vivaldi on desktop.

[–] Nerdfest@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

KMail for Linux (KDE) and K-9 for Android. I used to use Thunderbird, but hit a couple of bugs that just wouldn't go away. Absolutely love KMail.

[–] Jarmer@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

no client - firefox containers for when I'm forced to use gsuite (work stuff) so I can keep different gmail tabs open without cross contaminating the cookies. And ProtonMail for personal (also in its own container).

[–] lurkeymclerkface@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Outlook mobile seems to be the only one to give mark as read function on the galaxy watch. That's the only reason I use it.

[–] Goronmon@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I haven't figured out a reason to use a separate email client up to this point. I just use the webapps for Gmail and Fastmail.

Thunderbird. Also use it for RSS feeds.

[–] p1z@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Spark on both Android and Win. The AI integration is surprisingly useful, albeit I think a paid feature. I also personally like the look of the clients and they are pretty fully featured.
