@Dborhanian Tx. Regarding export/import mails. I use a great tool named imapsync - syncing one imap server to another. (If you need to move e.g a large chunk of emails from another server to Vivaldi).

@mvolf Which error did you got?

I guess there is a rate limit per hour or per account or number of receivers to protect against spamming over vivaldi.net mail server.
I think a vivaldi.net mail account is not really made for mass mailing of users.

Yes, here is more about Fastmail from the Vivaldi blog:

Also, I think it is clever how Fastmail has their office in Australia and their servers in the United States:

@syklist You are welcome. 🙂

@appsec You are welcome.

I just joined but I can say I like the system. As it was said above, it is very unlikely people with foul intentions would spend the time and effort to get registered here if they can just do it elsewhere with a very low effort. I do think this could still be tweaked a bit, for example having the ability to test the mailbox for only incoming email. It would be then good to see also for well-intentioned users to see if they like it.

This all being said, the thing I do not like it how ominous all it seems. Is spending time on the forum enough? If not, would upvoting bring bonus points? What if users lack language skills and do not have a dedicated language forum - would the only way be the Sync function? Would usage on the phone work too? Would it be better if I split this post into three shorter ones?

Also going through this old post, I did not actually see anyone saying "it is all good, I got it". That might shatter the hope it comes sooner or later. For all I know, maybe all the webmail users are all around from the time this was introduced 🙂

Thanks for the hints in this thread. We registered back in 2018 but did not use Webmail then. We recently had to reactivate our account but still have to wait for credit validation for being able to use Webmail. Ist this so?

@fjc1029 said in Comparing Vivaldi Webmail and Other Services:

@pearcem01 Yes, but I don't know how much they track you, compared to Vivaldi who doesn't. But it's probably better than Gmail or Outlook?

AT&T's POP3/IMAP/SMTP server names listed on the link @pearcem01 provided, all resolve to Yahoo.

@Janne-mustonen maybe it can be sloved quickly.

Vivaldi server team fixed now.
All Services working fine.

@journeyman3 A CalDAV URL for Vivaldi calendar is like https://calendar.vivaldi.net/calendars/[email protected]/default/
⇒ Add your Vivaldi account to other calendar clients

I do not know if that will work in your Skylight web app.

Thank you very much for the answers, I'll check it out.

@DoctorG Great ! Seems fine here too !
Thanks !

I'm having the same problem and well, thanks to your forum post, I now know why.

@luetage Yes, the point being is that in the event our own email inbox gets hacked, all emails are encrypted no matter if they are sent to us as such. There is nothing we can do about another persons inbox if they don't use encryption, which is still most users these days. However, to answer the posters original question, using the Vivaldi Mail email client and storing mails on your own machine can be just as good and private is a Proton inbox, as I describe here.
