Posteo through Apple Mail, nonsensical? (lemm.ee)

Hi! Just wanting to migrate from big tech and going BuyfromEU. I am trying out Posteo, which does not have an app only web interface. Since I can’t stay logged in on the web I’m using Apple Mail app as a gateway to simplify usage. To my question, is this totally counter productive to my privacy, pro-eu stance? Will apple mail collect my posteo data through the posteo now instead? Previously using outlook.

Thanks in advance!

Given the cost of replacing one's phone or computer, being pro-EU in terms of new purchases is far better than doing nothing at all.

No one said do nothing. Apple Mail makes escaping, now or later, harder.

Apple Mail fails to include a libre software license text file, like AGPL. We do not control it, anti-libre software.
