AquaMail created several accounts under Android's Accounts menu in Settings. Are those accounts, their names and email addresses accessible to other apps with accounts permission?
-
Whatever is visible in Phone Settings -> Accounts can be read by any app that has the "get accounts" permission (which on Android 6.0+ is part of the Contacts permission group).

Thank you. Is there a way to rid Settings -> Accounts of all of the email addresses which I use AquaMail to check? I don't want the whole world to know all of them.

There isn't.

OK, thank you. It's just that a lot of apps have this permission. I used to have xprivacy, a module working under the xposed framework dealing with it, but since I upgraded to Nougat I haven't found a solution.
