Hello DeltaChat Team,

i`am only a user of DeltaChat, and some of my friends uses it too.

The first thing: many thanks for the great update! :-)

I had watched the mailings here only.

I do not really understand, what is a shared or dedicated account, but one thing is very important for us: The use of normal EMail account as a Chat!

And DeltaChat works very good and fast.

<<< Chat with everybody - This is the innovation >>>

If DeltaChat were worked with its own account, we were not here (Messenger like WA, Viber, ... do it too, and xmpp work with its own Servers too).

That's exactly what a dedicated mode/account is: you need to go and open yet another account for reliably using delta.

If you use your current mail account (shared mode) to log-in in delta, you are very likely to encounter bugs and disrupt your mailbox which gets filtered unreliably. Which is why developers started recommending using a dedicated account.

The great majority of people on this list have expressed perplexities on this very recommendation and agree with you.

Unfortunately we've just finally come to know that it is not a priority to mitigate this issue, so the only way to use delta is to create another dedicated mail account.
