As simple as the title sounds I’m having huge trouble getting that working.
Thunderbird only fetches new mail while it’s open.
Who the heck knows how to get evolution/geary to play nice with business gmail/protonmail.
Does anyone have a simple way of solving this problem?
edit. Also, somewhat related, is there a good looking, simple e-mail client? Thunderbird looks busy. Geary kinda looks okay but I cant get it to work at all.
Why you don’t use Evolution and/or Geary?
They are basicly made for Gnome.
Geary has so many bugs and going to Gitlab to report the bug, you’ll find matching issues for the same bug dating back multiple years.
Geary also doesn’t offer a option for user to pull/refresh emails. Getting a 2FA code via email and waiting minutes to get the email to show up on Geary was painful.
The only thing I liked about Geary was it’s notifications integration in Gnome
It used to be a buggy mess, but it has become pretty stable in recent years. I’m using it daily and can’t remember the last time I encountered a severe bug.
I’m using it for two years with zero problems.
It has all the necessity for me unless direct PGP support.
