Re: [k-9-mail] Deletion Settings - Expunge

2019-02-25 Thread Gunter Königsmann
When using 1and1 or O2 as email provider I always had a full inbox because
the thunderbird had deleted or move all mails I instructed it to delete or
move. But I used Geary as 2nd mail program and my mails stayed accessible
until Geary way informed Thet they were no more there. Which was bad since
one day I deleted my Geary installation.

Perhaps a similar thing happens with k9, depending on the settings -
without it being k9's fault.

Not sure exactly what settings were being referred to, but:

Poll Folder Frequency: None
Poll Folders: Only 1st Class Folders
Push folders: Only 1st Class Folders
Sync Server Deletions: Remove messages when deleted on server.
When I delete a message: Delete from server
Erase deleted messages on server: Immediately

Connection is via IMAP, no security (as Spectrum advised), "Auto-detect 
IMAP namespace" set to whatever K-9's default was at the time I set it 
up a couple of years ago.

Are you using TLS for SMTP/IMAP?

If not, set up TLS and start your analysis over :-) (Seriously, not
having TLS and being even a little bit concerned about security do not
go together.)

If so, can you articulate your precise security concern (traffic
analysis)?

Are you using a VPN?  If not, would it help with the above security
concerns?

I agree that you have a point about servers treating some addresses as
bad and locking accounts.  That seems a bit much, but I can see the
point in wanting a program to decline to try from those networks.

[k-9-mail] Synching on unsecure networks

2019-02-25 Thread motogeesix
Hi. Is it feasible to add a feature to K9 so that it checks the security of 
the connection before synching email(s)? I only ask as there are times 
whilst out and about, that K9 will synchronise email accounts irrespective 
of the connection. The respective email providers will then question this, 
usually by denying access, and in the worst case, blocking access, 
requiring a new password to be set up(!).

Therefore, as I may be on a temporary, or insecure network, K9 may 
synchronise messages, thereby negating any security. So I ask if K9 can at 
least display a message to acknowledge that it is about to synchronise over 
an insecure connection... (I hope this makes sense and that you appreciate 
the reason for asking..!)
