@zsoltsandor Hey there! We'll track this with the mobile team and see if we can get a rough estimate of when this might be on the roadmap.

hey Monica, thanks, it's really one of the things that's keeping me back from using it. My phone is my only byod at my work, using it in desktop mode, and I have to print emails quite often.

One more thing, while we are at desktop mode: responsive design scaling, and mouse functions. Do they work, or do you have them on the roadmap?

Can I upgrade to the beta and transfer my current data from the regular app to the beta?

the transition looks nice, however everything in the sidebar now takes a little too much space, worsening the experience on devices with 16x9 screens. Is this just how material 3 is?

@hanscees All of us Thunderbirders on iOS want it too! We just hired a mobile release manager, which will make other key hires easier, which will help us be able to finally hit 'Engage!' and get started. :)

I just updated my K-9 to 6.901 from F-Droid yesterday. I'm totally digging the new look and how well it works! Keep up the good work everyone!

@thepmofam @dm We're so glad to hear this! And glad you've got 6.901 on F-Droid! We know sometimes our build cycles don't quite match and it's a little wait - we always want it to be worth it. :)

@dm I downloaded it direct from GitHub. That's what I've been doing with K9 for some time now.

Has K9, Thinderbird for Android, a possibility to us an existing list of contacts? And, if so, which format is required.
