Geary email client no longer work in portrait mode
Geary email client worked on bookworm, but no longer works on trixie. There is only an empty window after adding an account. Since this is the only adaptive/responsive mail client available, this should be fixed.

This seemed to work only when clicking on a new mail notification. Opening the app directly shows a blank window.

I think https://gitlab.gnome.org/felinira/envelope is expected to replace Geary eventually

I found a work around - open geary in landscape mode first and mails are shown. Once mails are shown, switching back to portrait mode is fine.

This seems the closest issue I could find https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/geary/-/issues/1471

So far geary seems to be working on FLX1.

Forgot to report earlier, but Geary has been working fine on my Poco F1 too. There's some other issue where a few specific emails don't open up in portrait and have to be opened in landscape, but I didn't face a situation where nothing at all was opening.
(The emails that didn't open were mostly promotional/newsletter so I didn't try digging too deep; it might be something to do with a specific combination of HTML that triggered some bug. Most emails worked, even when they had a lot of formatting.)

@Badri Sunderarajan did you add accounts in geary directly? I was adding accounts in gnome online accounts. Can you try adding account via gnome online accounts ?

For now there is another option than geary https://gitlab.postmarketos.org/postmarketOS/mobile-config-thunderbird

Thunderbird with mobile-config-thunderbird. Some screen like edit account is not adaptive, but basic reading and writing mails work. Double tap to read mail in new tab (single tap don't open the mail).

When there was a new mail notification, clicking on the notification showed the mails.
