Mozilla Thunderbird for Android is now available in beta, built upon the K-9 Mail app.
The beta includes core email features like account setup, email organization, and notifications, with feedback encouraged from users.
Thunderbird for Android will remain a separate app from K-9 Mail, requiring users to migrate if they previously used K-9.
Honestly, if you’re in the audience for Thunderbird on Android, you probably also want to have a look at FairMail
instead.Edit: phrasing
Why? What does FairMail do better? The headline says it’s privacy oriented, but so is k-9.
I love FairEmail’s simplified mail viewer that doesn’t render HTML mails completely and they look more like an enhanced plain text mail instead.
I’d say customizability. Haven’t used k-9 since I found FairEmail so can’t really say anything about how it is now but it used to be pretty bare bones. At least compared to FairEmail.
The most anticipated release of 2013.
Now with 100% more Mozilla spyware!! (previously K9 had none)
Anyone make the switch from Aquamail?
