Hello

First I must say this is the sole mail app I found which works well with IMAP protocol. It synchronizes all folders not only the standard ones (not Samsung email or gmail).

Thanks to k-9 team.

I don't always need to use k9.

Is there a switch to enable/disable k-9-mail or an account ?

Thanks

I do this by setting my polling frequency to never then manually polling/syncing when required.

You can set polling at the individual account level: Account Settings - Fetching - Polling. So you can set one account to never poll and other accounts to poll.

This does not work. In the past this worked.

There is no k9-mail accounts in account settings

But there should be an "account settings" menu in the settings menu of k9...

I have it in K-9 5.6. Apparently it's gone or well-hidden in 5.7 for
unfathomable reasons.
