Volla Phone Quintus running Ubuntu Touch: Upgrading to Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.0 - LinuxLinks
This is a series looking at the Volla Phone Quintus running Ubuntu Touch. This phone sports a powerful Mediatek Dimensity 7050 with 8 cores, 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. In this series I explore the phone, and in particular, focus on its operating system in detail. I’ll explore the things I love about Ubuntu Touch as well as things that could be improved.

That’s a native email client for Ubuntu Touch which lets you configure multiple accounts and for several identities. Despite trying ever possible setting, I was unable to coax Dekko to work with my IMAP servers. And I really tried every permutation under the sun.
