Hi,

I've been looking for an email client for S23/Android that gives the primary and ultimate functionality that Thunderbird does on Linux (possibly on Windows yet I'm unsure).

Thunderbird on Linux for many many years now has allowed you to a) setup your mailbox account (Hotmail, Yahoo, etc), setup any other mailbox account (MobileMe - precursor to icloud, Outlook, etc), and once emails are downloaded - yet still kept on their respective mailbox account servers - you would be able to MOVE or COPY the entirety of the emails ans folders to another account. 

Example:
1) icloud.com
I have years of emails and subfolders:
> jobs alerts, jobs applied for (are two subfolders with 400 emails under main folder Careers).
2) Outlook.com
Newer mailbox since migrating to S23

Is there an android application that'll allow me to setup both mailboxes and folders etc and allow me to mOVE/COPY emails from icloud to Outlook without loosing the data (date time sender recipient header data)?!

PS: forwarding is not a solution as previous emails are not forwarded and I've tried this already. 

Thank you kindly.

I'm already using it.
It does not provide what I need.

Outlook for ios or Android is not great at all. Case in point:

Do a search for a particular sender or subject or word in thr body of emails you have. Int hr search results you cannot select any/all and delete (purpose to cleanup your mailbox, not just simply unsubscribe) . Many other email clients on mobile offer this but Outlook for mobile is VERY limiting. Also it forces opening up in Edge browser tabs (even if you only have thr Bing AI app it has Edge tabs within for when you select links from AI results, which Outlook enforces). This is very annoying cause login for etransfers doesn't work in Bing (I use Chrome)

FYI @Samsung @Samsung_Ben

Some feedback on the Samsung Mail application. Please adjust and remove the hard coding for allowing permissions to Contacts, Pictures and Video before someone can reply, forward, and reply to all music!

Sometimes a person just wants to use text or html text to reply to an email. Email is free and it's 2023 forcing access to media and contacts just isn't right for a free application to fully use free email.

Please escalate this to the Samsung software team to remedy this else you'll kill discovery from an otherwise clean and functional email application that's easy on the eyes and has great swipe functionality.

Cheers
