Is there a limit to the emails that can be stored in K9? IMAP settings generally limit to 10,000 emails. Can K9 handle hundreds of thousands of emails?
What do you mean by “IMAP settings generally limit to 10,000 emails”? Does your server limit you to 10,000 emails? If so, you won’t be able to work around this using K-9 Mail.
K-9 Mail doesn’t have a built-in limit on the number of messages. However, currently information about all downloaded messages in a folder is loaded when displaying the message list in the app. So large folders (100,000+ messages downloaded to the device) will slow down the app or might even crash the app when the list doesn’t fit into the available memory. (We have plans to improve this. But it’s not something we’re currently working on.)
