Thunderbird is coming to Android – in K-9 Mail form

OAUTH2 - at the time Google were about to force it on legacy G-Suite users in a few months time so I jumped ship before I was pushed

I used K-9 for years but then needed Gmail authentication so switched to Bluemail. I've been very happy since, and have found it a good alternative to K-9, but will check out the new TB/K9 client when it's released.

Google sours on legacy G Suite freeloaders, demands fee or flee

Re: Just great.

I'm in the same boat, but with my domain hosted elsewhere for a tenner a year and MX records pointing to Gmail. What I'll do is use the free Gmail account I still have from 2012, repoint the MX records to where my domain is hosted and use my hosting service's free email redirection to forward emails to my old gmail account.

Google tightens the screw on 'less secure apps', will block most access from June 2020

Re: Thunderbird is fine. K9 doesn't do OAUTH2 yet

If you look on github there's a fair amount of work taking place on K9, and discussions just today regarding OAUTH2.
