I just had to move to a new Email-Client on my /e/OS phone and decided to give @thunderbird a try. I am using that on my laptop as well, so why not.

What can I say...

"Do you want to set up accounts manually or do you want to import the settings from your desktop Thunderbird?"

"Yes! Please Import"

"Go to x=>y=>z and scan the QR-code"

...

That's it...

Setting up email on android took me ... 10 seconds?

That was awesome!

Thank you, @thunderbird!

@heiglandreas I may need to talk to you about how to get /e/OS on a Samsung phone. I have been failing in my efforts so far :(

@heiglandreas @thunderbird and thanks for posting this here, just the little nudge I needed. Installation and importing (7) accounts was a breeze. Awesome indeed!

@onlinecommunityhub We're so glad that nudge got you inspired! Thanks so much for trying the Android app AND sharing about it here! 😍

@heiglandreas First, thanks so much for trying us, and second, we're so glad you liked the QR code import for settings! That was a real team effort and we're so proud of everyone who made it a success and helped people get started with the Android app!

@heiglandreas @thunderbird that sounds awesome. I used to use Thunderbird but Microsoft EWS support eventually led me to use Evolution. I'd love to return some day

@sephster At @bitexpert we used the @thunderbird -plugin Eule which integrated Outlook nicely into Thunderbird. As good as that works with this non-standard HTTP-based shit that Microsoft thinks is better than dedicated protocols....

@heiglandreas @bitexpert @thunderbird I've not heard of this plugin. I'll need to look into it. Thanks Andreas

@sephster while this is the best plugin to get TB to work with Outlook, you need to be aware that buying the license does not grant you support in any way. Not even when it comes to refunding invoices. Had to fight with them for months for this. /cc @heiglandreas @bitexpert @thunderbird
