Very cool! It looks like the primary focus here is displaying the messages in multiple folders at the same time; I like the message opens where it has space to open.
The account management settings page mentions needing an application password for Gmail — you'll also need one to add a Fastmail account (it looks like it retrieves through IMAP and sends through SMTP).
When I added an account, the account's existing folders weren't displayed to me anywhere (I was expecting the sidebar), but it looks like you can add a column for an existing folder and it'll just work.
It also looks like the action of dragging a message from one column to another removes it from one folder and adds it to another, which makes sense for a kanban board, but might get a little weird with Fastmail's labels mode, where a message can exist in multiple folders!

- Fizzadar 6y agoThank you for the feedback, this is incredibly helpful! - Regarding the new account message I shall update this to point at the providers page (https://github.com/Oxygem/Kanmail/issues/81 https://github.com/Oxygem/Kanmail/issues/81) - I like the idea of auto populating sidebar folders (without causing cluter, one to investigate) (https://github.com/Oxygem/Kanmail/issues/82 https://github.com/Oxygem/Kanmail/issues/82) - Originally Kanmail did copy emails between folders/labels (matching Gmail) but moving emails is more IMAP friendly in general. However, perhaps an option to copy is the best solution here, giving the end user the choice (https://github.com/Oxygem/Kanmail/issues/83 https://github.com/Oxygem/Kanmail/issues/83)
