It seems to me, Android-TBird could improve its presentation of emails, per the subject, to allow users to more easily discern one (delete vs. read) from the other.  The “gray” shading under certain light and/or screen conditions does not clearly distinguish one vs. the other. The two shades of gray, in my opinion are chromatically too close. Please review three attached images. ... View more

Hi, In the side menu when you click on "Show accounts" you see circles on the left with the two-letter abbreviation of the domain for the accounts. I think, using the first two letters of the domain can cause a lot of confusion for some users if the user has more than one email account for that domain even if their background color is different. For example, I'm seeing OU(Outlook) for 5 different accounts or GM(Gmail) for 3 different accounts. I think either allowing the user to customize these two letters or adding a toggle button to use the first two letters of the account name* instead of the domain can also solve the problem. This way, the user can use a color for the domain and use the letters to differentiate which email account is in that domain. For example, the user can use blue color for Outlook, and red color for Gmail and use two letters to differentiate which account it is in that domain. [*] the account name refers to the setting in Settings > Accounts > {your.email@example.com} > General Settings > Account Name. Since it is exactly the same as the user's email address by default anyone who wants to use the first two letters of the first half of the email address can use it by enabling the option I mentioned above, If anyone wants to use a custom two letter can do this by changing the account name. ...

Hello, My Wife and I are long time users of Thunderbird on our PC's and have recently been trying to set it up on our Pixel 8 Pro android phones. I am totally blind and she is low vision. We are having trouble trying to line up the QR code  to transfer accounts over. Its hard to do when you can't see the code or line it up just right. We had two suggestions to offer that might make things easier for us and other people who are blind or low vision. 1. Change things so the QR code doesn't have to be lined up. We frequently have to find a QR code on a laptop and have our android phone locate it. Usually once that is done the app looking for the code will just beep when its found on the screen and its just brought into the app with no other step for the user. 2. Currently we are using AquaMail on our Pixel 8 Pro phones. It gets the info to add each account from the data that is already been added to Android. We have added each email account to Android so those accounts can be interacted with. AquaMail has a drop down menu where you can one at a time add those other accounts to AquaMail and no need to re-enter the account data or password. I don't know the details of what is involved in doing that, but it is a method that works very easy for us and others. Thank you, ... View more

If you have several email accounts they are shown in a coloured "icon" with 2 letters which seem to be taken from the mail server name. For example if the server name is gmail.com the icon is shown as "GM". If you have 2 Gmail accounts they are both shown as "GM". The only customisation that you can do is to change the colour of the "icon". It would be nice to either select the two letters displayed or use an account image. Note that the 3 accounts "GM" are all gmail.com accounts but the only display difference I can set is the colour.  ... View more

Currently, when you delete an email, a dialogue pops up to confirm your action, which seems less efficient to me. Instead, I'd suggest an undo button at the bottom for a few seconds. I'd also include an undo function when sending an email. ... View more

In Thunderbird Mobile email attachments, if any, are displayed at the bottom. Now, if an email conversation goes on forever, it can take ages to scroll down to find the attachment, and therefore you run the risk of missing it. Thank you for all the great work! ... View more

Dark mode is generally what most users find the most appealing while viewing emails. However, while viewing an email, sometimes dark mode does not carry over the intended message properly. Like as an example, when I get a barcode, the sender hopes the surrounding area of the barcode image is white in order for it to work.   In such cases, it should be possible quickly switch to light mode, instead of having to go to the settings. Maybe a view in light mode button could be added to the right top 3 dot menu that appears while viewing a mail. Thunderbirdmobile ... View more

Nowadays, photographs have size comparable to e-mail attachment size limit and generally it makes no sense to send 10MB photos in most cases. It is very clumsy to resize images outside the application if one needs to attach them to an e-mail. Please provide the feature of image resizing within Thunderbird for Android self, just like BlueMail does. ... View more

Thunderbird/K-9 Mail can suggest email recipients in a dropdown menu based on your email history and your most commonly emailed individuals. The feature already exists in Thunderbird for the desktop as well as in Outlook, and it's pretty convenient for finding the recipient without having to add him to your contacts, and without having to type their full address. ...

Hi, It would be good if it were possible to move the icons in ‘Read mail’ and ‘Write mail’ down in the settings for better one-handed mode for large mobile phones. In Firefox this is possible with the adess line and the icons and it is very useful. I hope you find a way to realise this. In Bluemail, for example, there is always an icon bar at the bottom with the most important options, such as ‘Delete’, ‘Reply’ etc. greetings, Looks ... View more

Hello, First of all, thank you for the excellent software. I have a lot of folders and subfolders in my mailbox. Is it possible for the folders to be closed until they are opened?

This feature, that works in the desktop version, is immensely useful for both users and mail service providers. Our customers has an autoconfig.theirdomain.com DNS records, that means easy setup in Thunderbird, as it knows our servers and settings. Not all people will have Thunderbird installed, and can use the QR scan - Some people will want to use a webmail and on the go, they want a (good) mail app, like Thunderbird. So the same concept of Autoconfiguration should work here. https://wiki.mozilla.org/Thunderbird:Autoconfiguration ... View more
