Google mail client in Android refuses to login on other addresses than gmail.com!!!
I noticed a while back that the Google client fights back when I want to login on my email addresses which deviate from the Google domain. The client started with putting delays, before opening those accounts. It also randomly injected that those accounts were not safe while all standard Open Source safety measures are taken on both the servers and the clients.
When scaring you into using your {own hosted} email server fails, the gmail Android client degrades to the following behaviorThe Google mail client in Android blatantly refuses to open the mails on those addresses.
##The Android client fakes, hallucinates, out of memory errors...
...even when all other programs on the phone have been taken out of memory. It's like someone put in LLM hallucinated slop code in that part of the gmail client
Very anti-consumer this Behavior
Of course I have an Open Source e-mail client running
on my AndroidsI've seen this behavior coming years before. No I'm not going to recommend any open source email client to you, to use on your Android, to fetch and process your mail.
There are enough choices to make your ownJust remember that Google hates all of us
Google hates their clients
Google as a company hates their consumers never forget that
jump ship.
Google is now the Bell Phone Company of the 1960s

@Radio_Azureus I don't use google products (including android), so I can't verify. Do you have sources or proof of this behavior?
