Description

Hello,

Describe the bug
I have 2 accounts in K9. I set up one to download mails with no size limit for attachments. Yesterday, I had an email with 1Mb attachment. It appears correctly in the view for this account but I cannot see the mail in the unified view. Is it a bug or I missed something in settings ?

Environment (please complete the following information):

  • K-9 Mail version: 5.801
  • Android version: 11
  • Device: Realme GT 5G
  • Account type: IMAP

Thanks for all the work, I am K9 user for long years and I like the new interface ;-)

Congrats from France (I hope that my explanations are clear) !

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in K-9 Mail with two IMAP accounts, one containing a 1 MB attachment, and compare the account view with the unified view. Check whether the message is excluded only from unified view; done means the message appears consistently in both views or the exclusion is clearly explained and covered by a regression test.
