Hi Su, I am pretty sure there are apps in the play store that you can install for your particular device that will allow you to 'lock' an app and request a password etc. before running/opening it, however because K-9 is expected to be always running in some form or other to be able to download new mails etc. unless you stop K-9 altogether after viewing your e-mails it may give issues to how it polls for new mail if it is locked.
Sorry I cant be more help but I am sure there will be someone else on the forum that will be able to fill in the blanks. -- Best Regards, Peter Hi there. Is there any way to set up K-9 Mail so that when I launch the app, it requires me to log in to my account (ie, it doesn't just open the account/go directly to the inbox)? I'm using it for my work email and I'd really like that extra security layer. Yes, I have a PIN set on the screen and the SIM and whatnot, but I'd still like to know that if I lose my phone or it's stolen, anyone trying to get into my email will also have to know the password to that. I don't want/need K-9 to be syncing mail when it's not launched so I don't need to be permanently or automatically logged in. Is there any way I can do this? And if not, does anyone know if it's possible with ANY Android email app? -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the K-9 Mail Users List.
