Bug fixes and improvements.

eliable email sending needs to be fixed

HEY Email needs to improve its sending reliability. I have experienced emails that appear to send successfully, but other times they unexpectedly end up in the Drafts folder instead of being delivered.

An email app must be dependable. Users should not have to constantly check Drafts to confirm whether an important message was actually sent. This creates uncertainty and can cause missed communications.

Please investigate this issue, improve the send process, and provide better error notifications when an email fails to send.

$99 a year? A joke?

$99 a year? Really? For an email app?

Good idea, poor client, not for serious use

This is a great idea and keeps my email inbox trim but the web based gui is buggy, slow and makes for a poor user experience. It’s just not built for serious email use. Latest issue is saving everything sent also as a draft - leaving me unsure if it’s been sent. Months later still not fixed. Other issues, saving files end up with long unreadable file names. Emails that just don’t send. Super slow access. Been hoping for years for a proper app, but no such luck. I may move on…
