Runbox 7 - Page 3

Decided to take another look at Runbox 7. If any improvements have been made in the past year it's been under the hood improvements. It still is very Beta-ish. Not ready for being a daily driver. I am sure Runbox is great if using a client but I like webmail.
I guess I will check back in 6 months from now....

The longest beta ever.

I've had a quick look through the Runbox forum here on EMD, and have found mention of RB5 and RB6 in beta, but they do pale into insignificance when compared to RB7.

The Closed Beta Test for RB7 was announced in the Runbox blog in December 2017:

It seems longer!

It's too bad because way back I did use them as my main email provider. What drove me away was the ugly webmail. I don't like using a client. I was super excited when they announced RB 7 but after using it YEARS AGO I quickly moved away from them because frankly I hate it.....still do. It's a shame because I find their service to be a great deal and the little customer service I have needed with them was always good.

It's been 2 years since they retired Roundcube, it would be nice to reinstate this option.

Does Runbox 7 allow tagging of messages?
