• Gmail ads are getting more annoying

  No, but there are some very good free and open source email clients for Android that are compatible with Gmail. 2 of my favorites are: - FairEmail: https://email.faircode.eu - K-9 Mail: https://k9mail.app. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• YSK that when you open marketing emails, they immediately know that you have opened it.

  Fairemail exists and works quite well https://email.faircode.eu/. Source: about 1 year ago

• Clean Email Client for ALL Platforms

  There isn't technically a mobile Thunderbird, but K-9 Mail will eventually become Thunderbird on Android (I still plan to stick with FairEmail). Source: over 1 year ago

• Any email client that supports Microsoft Exchange

  I'd recommend FairEmail or K-9 Mail as an email app, but neither of them plan to implement Microsoft's proprietary protocols. You'd have to find out if IMAP is enabled on your school's server. Source: over 1 year ago

• What are your top apps (bonus points for FOSS)

  I didn't see FairEmail mentioned yet https://email.faircode.eu/ and also the TrailSense multitool https://github.com/kylecorry31/Trail-Sense is one of my favorites. Plus I prefer AdAway over AdGuard. Source: over 1 year ago

• Open source Email providers that allow multiple free accounts on mobile

  It won't work with Proton Mail accounts, but I like FairEmail for Android. You could consider switching to mailbox.org, which uses largely open source software. Source: over 1 year ago

• Suggestion regarding the privacy email providers with better search and spam filtering capabilty

  I use mailbox.org with the encrypted inbox, Mozilla Thunderbird on desktop, and FairEmail + OpenKeychain on Android. I think StartMail is the only other one of those four options that supports standard IMAP and SMTP. Source: over 1 year ago

• Simple Phone is on its way!

  For a mail app, I would suggest FairEmail – a FOSS and privacy focused mail application with many great fearures. I use it everyday and must say that I’ve never used a better Android mail client than this one. The app is available on F-Droid, PlayStore (which obviously isn’t an option for a FOSS phone) & GitHub, for more info see https://email.faircode.eu. Source: almost 2 years ago
