Feature request: add emails to the synchronization stack #239

Closed darealShadow closed 1 year ago

Your environment

TbSync version: unknown currently Thunderbird version: 115

Currently I am using Outlook but want to switch completely away from any Microsoft products. In Outlook it is possible to not only sync calendars and contacts but also e-mails. I would like to request the same functionality for tbsync so in addition to syncing calendar and contacts my emails would be synced as well.

Thank you very much.

some customized email server like CoreMail banned IMAP/POP3, also banned Exchange protocols. It only allows either CoreMail App or Exchange ActiveSync mobile clients. I'm now having trouble to use email on my Mac (calendar/contact works fine), please still consider adding mail functions to this plugin, thanks a lot!

What policy is behind that? Why do they disallow 99% of currently used access methods (global market share)?

Exchange ActiveSync is also an Exchange protocol, so why do they exclude that from the ban?

Try the OWL add-on, could be that they support ActiveSync.

I will close this, since there is nothing to add besides https://github.com/jobisoft/EAS-4-TbSync/issues/239#issuecomment-1697130874.
