Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

New users and advanced age users struggle with this feature, creating dissatisfaction with Nextcloud Mail. It requires the admin to fix on the server.

Describe the solution you'd like

Either a global setting for these two settings or as a default from the start.

Describe alternatives you've considered

For a 1.5 years, I have tried education in several different formats to no avail.

Additional context

Really like the new Reply All solution, I think having a reply to sender next to it would make it complete.

Research direction

Start by tracing new mailbox creation and where the Subscribed and Sync in background settings receive their defaults. Clarify whether the desired result is a global setting, fixed defaults, or both; done means the agreed behavior is applied consistently for new mailboxes and is verifiable in the interface.
