Hi all.
I'm new to this group even if I have been using K-9 mail on my Android
devices for about 3 years.
I "googled" a little bit this forum but I did not find an answer.
So excuse me if it was already discussed, but using words like
"metapassword" or "master password" I did not find threads concerning
this subject.

I have many email accounts to check with K-9, ie 8 different accounts
and so it is quite boring to insert 8 different passwords every time.
So I decided to saved them.
In this case however, if someone steals my smartphone (or my tablet),
then (s)he can access all my mail.
So, my question is the following: is there any plan to add a master/meta
password which protects a K-9 installation where all the passwords are
saved in order not to have to digit everytime? In this cas in fact I
need to digit just one.
Alternatively, is there any other tip/trick to protect my data without
reintert password of different accounts anytime I need to check them?

K-9 caches credentials. I use IMAP and I don't even see an option that would have it *not* save the credentials. Are you using POP3?
