Genau das will ich mir aus der Nähe ansehen.

Im Homelab dieselben Fragen wie im Rechenzentrum, nur mit kleinerem Stromzähler. Ein richtig guter Tag also.

The client started with putting delays, before opening those accounts. It also randomly injected that those accounts were not safe while all standard Open Source safety measures are taken on both the servers and the clients.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                    When scaring you into using your {own hosted} email server fails, the gmail Android client degrades to the following behavior

No I'm not going to recommend any open source email client to you, to use on your Android, to fetch and process your mail.
