this app has been a real let down so far. I'm a long time Thunderbird desktop user and I've been waiting on an Android version for years. I've been using this for a few months now and I'm about ready to go back to my phone's default email app. I'm constantly having emails not send and the UI really could be better. hopefully improvements come later.

While we are working on improving and refactoring our message sync, be sure to check your app has unrestricted battery access to enable background sync! You can check this by long pressing the app icon, tapping the info icon, and tapping 'Battery'

I really wanted to keep Thunderbird as my main email client but I just can't. App is unusable because notifications don't work. I did a bit of research to figure out but it seems like it's a common issue for so many users. Polling notification doesn't work at all. When I turn on push notifications, then I get a constant notification of "waiting for new emails" that I can't get rid of. Even though it has the best UI, app is simply unsable

We're so sorry you're having issues with notifications, whether push or polling. It seems like you may have found some of the issues on our GitHub (https://github.com/thunderbird/thunderbird-android/issues), and if you haven't opened a new issue that may be the best option, to provide details and get feedback from our team and volunteers.

Really on board for this app! I've had so many issues with so many apps but I think I might finally be able to settle. Only one bit of feedback I'd really liked implemented—RTF or html signatures! I want my signature to be the same as it is on my desktop, where I've gone to the trouble of making a nice html signature but no matter how hard I try (including importing settings from TB desktop, pasting from existing formatted text) this app de-formats my signature to pure text with no formatting.
