Comment on Webmail client with decent search and large mailbox support?

Obviously I’d need a webmail client
Why “obviously”? Plenty of open source, high quality email clients for desktop and mobile, and I can not think of any scenario nowadays where you’d be willing to access your email from an untrusted device anyway.
The biggest problem is you have to set up every device independently with accounts, senders, signatures, and have one device online all the time to apply rules. It’s a lot of work to keep 3 mail clients all set up the same.
We need essentially self hosted gmail, where you have a web client for PC use and an app for mobile, mail is processed server-side, and settings are all automatically the same across clients.
Thunderbird is good enough for me I guess. I don’t think it is slow, it handles my multiple accounts just fine. I don’t have an overly complex email tbh, so my biggest requirements are only (a) how fast can I archive things (b) how easy it is to find things by searching. I also used evolution for a while, but thought it was doing more than I needed so I never cared about digging in deeper.

for myself I find the existing android clients far from adequate. if you have filters, folders, identities etc it is a fuck tonne of set up. last time i tried i just gave up.

+1, I fucking love FE. It’s the standard for a quality client on mobile. I prefer it to thunderbird on desktop.
