As far as Readdle being able to access someone’s mailbox — this
fear is somewhat unfounded. As soon any user configures their email
account in an email client, the app maker now has access to user
credentials and could, if they desire, access that email account at
will.
As someone else mentioned; this is straying way off topic. So in an
effort to wrap this up...
My initial comment was effectively "be informed" - I still stand by that
comment. And I never said Spark is bad or not to use it.
The only difference here is that Readdle is informing the users in a
advance if what they are doing…
I don't agree that is the only difference. I trust Benny (& other devs)
to do the right thing. That means that MailMate never stores my email
creds itself, and instead uses OS keychain, and I trust that MailMate is
certainly not smuggling my creds to store on remote servers.
That doesn't make MailMate right and Readdle wrong - but it does make
them different. And I made an assumption that users of MailMate are more
discerning than the average email user, so I shared my experiences, so
others here can be informed. I trust I've achieved that now, and if I
haven't then I doubt I can clarify it any further.
