Thanks for the feedback Christoph, that is encouraging to hear. My team has had me install afterlogic and rainloop and have been testing them and while of course they are faster none of them properly integrate in the way that nextcloud mail does.  Nextlcoud mail will always be everyone's first choice, but as a tool used all day long the speed issue is significant. Also, I'm new to this community but I've been a dedicated opensource user and advocate for decades. I would strongly encourage you to not hide comments that you find negative, unless they are offensive or a personal attack. Censorship quickly disengages a community where as an open response if respected even if it strongly disagrees with the first person. Thank you for everything you and the Nextcloud team do! Cheers Brendan
