I use different web interfaces to access Gmail, Hotmail, ProtonMail, Disroot, etc. However, I would like to use a single client to receive all my emails. Which desktop programs would you recommend for Linux, and which apps would you recommend for Android? I need them to support all of these email boxes. From what I’ve read around here, most people recommend Thunderbird for Linux, Mutt for power users, and K-9 Mail for Android. However, the first thing I noticed when opening K-9 Mail is that it doesn’t support Hotmail accounts.
I think the most popular choices for a desktop computer are something like Thunderbird or Evolution. Or one of the sleek and minimalistic newer ones like Geary.
K-9 for Android has lots of features and is a popular choice. If hotmail doesn’t support one of the widely accepted standards like IMAP, you need to look up what solutions other people came up with. Could be very well the case that is’s also not supported with Thunderbird and Evolution etc then.
Fairmail for android and Thunderbird for desktop is my preferred setup
Using Thunderbird and K9. Hotmail working perfectly on both, you might have messed up the settings.
I really enjoyed KMail when I used KDE. The Integrations also with KDETravel are really nice, and it supports every Feature you can think of
Looking online Hotmail supports IMAP, pop and SMTP. So you should be able to set it up.

Looks like it just uses the outlook settings.
Aquamail on Android is feature rich.
I use Thunderbird for desktop (Windows) and Bluemail for Android. Works for me.
Can Proton mail work with other applications? 🤔
