K9 mail in personal area - Android 16

I also use k9 mail in the personal area on an Android 16 smartphone but I can no longer attach files present in the personal area itself.

What do you mean with personal area?

Also, which exact version of K-9?

Can you describe the behavior?

The more information the more probable that someone might be able to help.

My phone is a Samsung Galaxy 25 Ultra.

The personal area is a secure folder used on Samsung Galaxy.

The problem arose after updating to Android 16 some week ago.

K9 is 12.1 version

I can no longer attach documents from the same secure folder but only from the folders outside the personal area

A quick google suggests this is a bug with the file picker on Samsung phones running OneUI 8 on Android 16. Users report other apps being affected so a fault with K9 is unlikely. See link below.

Thanks. I hope Samsung fixes this bug as soon as possible
