Can't use with any VPN app

[Kostya Vasilyev]

Sanity check.

I just tried the top rated VPN app in Play -- called VPN Master, which has a spectacular 4.6 rating:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=free.vpn.unblock.proxy.vpnmaster

- In AquaMail, some mail accounts (providers) worked, some didn't (network / connect errors):

Worked: Yahoo, Mail.ru, Office 365
Didn't work: Gmail, Fastmail, Yandex.ru

- Tried adding one of those non-working accounts into Gmail Android App:

Didn't work, stuck "validating account settings" forever

- Google Play app:

Didn't work, stuck "refreshing", eventually "connection timed out"

( I wanted to install K9 Mail )

- Gmail app with my primary Gmail account:

Didn't work: test message didn't arrive, "pull to refresh" stuck on "refresh wheel"

- Chrome:

Tried three web sites which I visit daily, not one of them opened, "web page not available, connection timed out".

- Tried a different VPN endpoint, UK was the default, changed to Nederlands, no difference.

Does not look all that wonderful and magical to me (esp. for an app rated at 4.6).

But surely it's "a bug in AquaMail", right?

What I know for sure in my case, is that with any VPN I use, all app on my Android phone work well except few email apps. I recently bought a VPN licence and all still work ok on my phone including K-9 mail, but not Aquamail. I don't know what to say...

I happy to hear that you found an email app that does work for you.
