Description
Checklist
- I have used the search function to see if someone else has already submitted the same bug report.
- I will describe the problem with as much detail as possible.
App
K-9 Mail
App version
14.0
Where did you get the app from?
Google Play
Android version
12
Device model
samsung galaxy tab A & galaxy s10
Steps to reproduce
- Opened K9
- That's it. Some sort of update happened & the UI is different. Fine. But, it turned on threaded view (the worst invention ever).
- This should never happen.
Expected behavior
Leave the threaded view setting alone, or better yet, eliminate threaded view from the universe.
Actual behavior
Critical and time consuming setting changes were made without user permission.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the behavior in K-9 Mail 14.0 on Android 12 with threaded view disabled, then investigate what changes after opening or updating the app. Done means an update or launch no longer changes the user's threaded-view setting without permission.
