I have matching com and net addresses working fine with thunderbird but they are hosted with different services. Com is through mxroute and net is on my own imap server. For all of you having issues are both addresses pointed to the same servers?

In my case, I used two addresses using different servers.
Both MXroute in this case, but still different server addresses.
With Betterbird, both worked fine, as well as with the IOS mail client - so I suppose it is a, quite silly, bug on Thunderbird.
I installed Thunderbird on Android, but as expected, it's a hassle if I can't manage everything in Gmail — the biggest problem is that Android kills the app in the background, so the notifications don’t come through properly like with the Gmail app.
By the way, I've been using "Thunderbird — on Windows, version 143.0.1 (64-bit) — which apparently won't let you configure both [email protected]" for years on my PC — mine are .COM and .ME though."
Used to use K9 on my android phone, but due to some issues with background processes not running and emails not getting synced, switched to using thunderbird. No issues since then.

I also like the straightforward old-school K9 (before the redesign).
The app above is probably one of the closest options these days.
Ah, yes, I used the old K9 on my android 4+ phones back in the day for a very long time! Did not consider any other email app till K9 was "just another" mail app...
Never make the same mistake twice. There are so many new ones to make.
It’s OK if you disagree with me. I can’t force you to be right.

Thunderbird on Android is just rebadged K9 - give https://email.faircode.eu/ a go
Forward mails.
faircode is more basic than others.

Forwarding has risks and is not 100% reliable (Google may refuse a forwarded email without disclosing it).

Have a look at this one: https://f-droid.org/packages/org.dystopia.email/
I haven't tried it with Gmail though (unsure about tags). Works well with MXroute.
Thought the same. On my phone it was consuming up to ~500 MB RAM.
Switched to the one above, it's a lightweight fork of FairEmail.
