Rainloop is not maintained anymore. Consider a switch to Snappymail which is an actively-maintained fork of Rainloop. After enabling in Nextcloud, go to Nextcloud admin panel, "Additionnal settings" and you will see a "Rainloop webmail" section. There, click on the link to go to the Rainloop admin panel. The default user/password is admin/12345. This version is based on Rainloop 1.16.0 (2021-05).

Clarification to ratting: It certainly was a great app, but because it is officially deprecated in favor of https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/snappymail, giving it worst rating to lower probability it shows among best ratted apps to make catalog of apps cleaner.

Hundreds of times better than the featured NextCloud app. This extension is feature-rich and it works. NextCloud feature app doesn't have "archive". That's a feature that is just a basic common feature that you must have. Most medium to large size businesses doesn't allow you to delete emails. You must archive them.

RainMail is amazing. A lot like RoundCube. Super easy to set up. Multiple email accounts. Multiple signatures. Of course, duh! Archive. Folders etc. It's still missing a few things like rules, but overall you can't complain since it's built into NextCloud and oh yea...it's FREE!

This is better than the default mail app which in my case mostly only displays half of the content of an email. I wonder how to update it ? In the standard rainloop it is self updating but this version is not the current version and i cannot upgrade ?

Good app works better then the mail app of Nextcloud (I am using NC 20)

What about this problem with security, is this already solved?

Great plugin! Very happy to have it in Nextcloud! Just the configuration is a bit hidden ... be sure to follow their User documentation at github.com. I also recommend let each user to setup their email authentication in their personal settings, seems to work the best.

Thank you for great job. Works well, but better integration with NextCloud would be very welcome. Things that occurred to me:

  • files integration (loat attachments from NC / store attachments from mail to NC)
  • calendar integration (put events from mail into calendar)
  • contacts integration (take contacts from NC, optionally store new contacts to NC)
  • remove settings from rainloop main the page and put it to user settings (where the rest of settings reside)

It would be great that developers of this (rainloop) app and the Nextcloud mail app put together and merge functionalities into single app. Rainloop has much better UI/UX, but missing nextcloud integrations. NC Mail is better integrated, but the UX is ... hmm ... discutable.

Glad there is some usable email client within Nexctloud (the default Mail App seems to target a different audience, probably).

A pity attachment cannot be uploaded from Nextcloud storage.

Works fine. Even Google auth. Only WebDAV contact synchronisation works not properly. Anyway thanks for good job.
