I finally got a newer phone that will no longer support good old version 5.60, which was a perfect 5 star email app, and I was forced to install 9.0. I REALLY miss having the app's primary screen be the list of accounts. I wish there were a setting that would allow me to bring that back. The current screen with the list of the current account's folders and list of accounts to the side would be ok. I loved that summary as my intro & exit view. Minus 2 stars for that glaring omission.

I've used and appreciated K-9 for many years. A request... In v 8.2 it pushes to the top of my in-box messages that it thinks I need to follow up on. Please provide a way to disable this function! It's confusing because the messages are not marked to differentiate then from new ones and irritating because I generally disagree with the algorithm on what needs my attention. Thanks for considering.

No. Just, no. It went from 5 stars to 1 in one version. The new interface is clunky and cumbersome, and unintuitive. The old interface was perfect, especially if you have multiple accounts. Please bring it back, make a legacy version, something. I am one inch away from going to another app and chalking this into the "Used to be amazing" list.
