Started getting tired of the ads in gmail, so last week switched to K9 Mail. Liking it so far.
post
I use FairEmail. The free version already has fairly advanced features, it's open source and ad free, and you can customize it to your liking. Even the paid version is not a ripoff and feels like you are actually supporting the developer instead of throwing money at a greedy company.
FairMail is great, and gets updates frequently.
I use protonmail and have a paid account there. They have filters that can automatically move mails to folders or give them a label.
I use protonmail as well. Can you create folders and set your rules for them from mobile in proton?
I recently switched from gmail to protonmail. I might start paying for the cheapest subscription at some point once I fully migrate over. The mobile app is really sleek and I think it is better than gmails mobile app.
K9mail. Mozilla collaborates with the dev. There'll be a Thunderbird for Android based on k9mail.
Been using Nine on my personal device, as Outlook was horrible at syncing with IMAP accounts (only synced on demand, never in the background). On my work device, I do use Outlook, but with an O365 account it does work as intended.
I've seen nine recommend before. Other than syncing, are there any other features nine has that you like?
I use the Outlook app and Gmail, Outlook for the same reason (work) but also because it does the job.
After reading this post though I'll probably try others, I've seen good things about Nine before, anything you're not liking about it?
Another nice thing with Nine is you can configure it to not wipe your whole device if your admins decide to do that to you.
I find Spark mail to have the best UI
Not much of a choice to switch webclients. But on clients I'd start with Sparkmail. Except if you are on Linux.. mac/win/ios/android only.
I used Nine for work email for years; it has the fewest "deal-breakers" in an email app that I've ever tried. Unfortunately, my company changed to Exchange Online and now only allows the official Outlook app.
As someone else mentioned, it's UI is maybe a little cluttered. However, it's also got the all the features I wanted. If you favor clean UI over features, look elsewhere. Otherwise, it's worth the price of admission.
I use Fastmail on the web, and Aqua Mail as my Android client.
The joy of using almost any enail servie other than Gmail or Outlook is that you can use basically any IMAP client you want :). Yes, I know that they both also support IMAP, but it never seems to work quite as well as one might hope.
Bluemail is my app of choice. I have four different email accounts and like how easy it is to manage each of them.
Protonmail is my favorite email app/service. I've been using it the last 2 years and it's been a great experience.
I was using Spark for the past few years because it was the closest thing I could find to Inbox that supported non-Gmail emails. A few months ago they put out a major update (v3) that completely borked it for me. It constantly crashes on both iPadOS and Android, so I've moved onto K-9 Mail and am waiting for Thunderbird to come out on iPadOS.
I didn't use K-9 for the longest time because I had a poor experience with it the first time I tried it many, many years ago. Between then and now it looks like they refreshed to Material Design and have significantly improved the UX. I'm happy with it.
I like Microsoft Android Apps, and I always felt like Outlook is pretty good if you have O365. Zero complaints.
I bought Nine and used it for a while, but I just felt like it was a bit too cluttered for an email app.
I like aquamail but am not sure what is going on with already purchased paid accounts right now.
I'm using aquamail too, also paid for pro.
It seems like we will be able to keep the current features we have, but new ones might not be available unless we enter into a subscription model.

Is there an email client that can sort emails by Primary, Social, and Promotions like how the Gmail client does? Also when using another client to send an email, all the email contacts don't get autofilled like how gmail has it.
I've just started using spark, and it seems pretty close.
It has 'newsletters' which is basically 'promotions', and 'notifications' which is more of the important stuff like eBay and Amazon receipts and Google security notifications because you signed into a new email app 😂
I liked Spark, and right now I use E-mail by Edison. Clunky name, but good solid email app. Nice UI, multiple accounts.
All I want is a Gmail app that uses my desktop signature, how the hell is that not the default?
I like K9 Mail, and it's cool that they're collaborating with Thunderbird to transition it to a mobile version of Thunderbird.
