Problem you are trying to solve

Currently, emails received through K-9 can only be manged through a notification that is sent on arrival (which was added as a fix to the related #619). However, other apps (i.e. Outlook) provide a version of their app that runs on a wearable, allowing emails in the inbox to be read and managed after their notification is cleared.

Suggested solution

A port has a long list of things that would need to be considered; this would be a long term goal (and not something I am asking for overnight).

Research direction

No source files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reviewing the linked Android Wear OS port guidance and assessing the scope against the existing Android app. The issue does not define a specific first milestone or completion criteria, so the work would need to be broken into smaller, actionable issues.
