This email has everything one could need but is not messy. This is not like apps that have it all but you can’t find any of what it has. Meaning that this app is laid out very well. It seems so clean. I do have a small complaint. I cannot leave the application open while I view some of the content I receive but only on my pc it doesn’t effect my mobile app. Oh and there was a one time thing that happened: one of my regular podcasts that is received in the email was blocked with a warning. That is not something I will be supportive about if it becomes a regular event. No one may choose another’s choice for them lest they pay the high price of being dumped, forever.
I keep getting blocked
Bling Diggity
Every time I try to create an email account, at the end after my email account is successfully created - I immediately get a message saying that my account has been blocked due to “suspicious activity”. Which is impossible as I was never about to use it in the first place. So either they have my entire ISP (Cox) blocked from being able to create email accounts with them - or they’re no longer allowing new accounts to be created and just using the “suspicious activity” b.s. as a cover. Interestingly enough, I was able to create an email address by using a different ISP the other day. Everything worked fine. But as soon as I got home and tried to log in - boom! My new account was blocked once again. I was able to send one single email with this new account, to myself, to make sure the account was actually working. And it was. But for whatever reason, my account keeps getting blocked and once it does, they absolutely refuse to unblock it no matter how many times I ask. I’ve probably created 4 or 5 email addresses with them at this point - all of which were mostly blocked immediately after they were created. Makes absolutely no sense. Why sites and security systems block entire ranges of IP addresses is beyond me - I mean that’s a really old, outdated, and inefficient form of security. At this point, I’m done with GMX. It’s useless to me so I just uninstalled it and went back to Mail2World. I’ve never had an issue with any other email provider like I have with GMX. Apparently they don’t want me to use their service, though I’ve done absolutely nothing wrong whatsoever. So, if they don’t want me, I’m certainly not going to stick around. Bye GMX!!
Safe? - Maybe. Reliable? HAHAHA!!!!

The least reliable app I've ever used. Seriously.At least every other day, sometimes several times per day I have to delete and reinstall the app due to the app forgetting my GMX email addresses and passwords.The weird thing is the app still continues to show banner alerts with the first few lines of a new email, then when I try to view the email by tapping the banner or using the app, the app has completely forgotten who I am, forces me to re-enter my email addresses and passwords, tells me there are errors and can't fulfill my request and I have to delete and reinstall the app.Also, maddeningly annoying is the fact that (when the app is 'working at it's best'), I get the banner alert to a new email, then after tapping the banner or using the app, (if the app lets me in) it tells me I have no new emails! After switching back and forth between my accounts and forcing refreshes for a few minutes, it tells me it's downloading new emails, which then often takes several minutes longer.The insult from GMX regarding this is that a while back they asked me for feedback on the app and I told them exactly what I've written above. Their answer - delete and reinstall the app!!!!! They obviously failed to read or comprehend the very essence of the problem that this isn't a one off; my complaint was exactly that I'm sick and tired of deleting and reinstalling the app every time I want to read an email!!!!Deleted today for the final time. Never to be reinstalled.
Encrypted email is awesome
Wsanders123
Having the option to use encryption for your emails is awesome. It is especially useful since I have an iOS account, which doesn’t inherently support PGP or similar free encryption services. Normally you would have to pay for a S/MIME certificate which is a natural barrier to most people. For iOS accounts, this gives you an option to encrypt your emails. I’ve tried to convert other family members to encrypted email but the cost for the certificate or the need to switch to P*r*o*t*o*n or a similar service with only limited storage for the free account, has proven to be difficult. With GMX, they would still need to convert to a new email address, but at least there is no cost barrier.
With this release, it is possible to send emails with files larger than 100 MB (Premium exclusive).
Bug fixes and stability improvements.
