Sophos Secure Email for Android
App has not been updated to play nice with revamped notifications on Android Oreo, I don't get any notification of new email whatsoever. This is a huge problem for a business-oriented email client. App also constantly crashes on Android Oreo. **"Update in reply to dev response: Battery optimization is already disabled for all Sophos apps on my phone. Notifications are broken in this app. Nothing shows in the notifications shade, no sound plays (although I've set a custom notification sound for email from this app), and no vibration. If my work allowed I would use another mail client. Please update this app to support Android Oreo's new notification system. Email without notification is nearly useless.
After 2 updates, the following is still an issue: Won't save email ringtone. After I set it, once I back out to the "Email settings" screen, it forgets what I set it to and goes back to using the default system ringtone. Setting a calendar ringtone works fine.
Liked but it's not having view unread mail option as well as no notification apart from the inbox if I have multiple subfolder and mails are moving from inbox to that folder. No notification. No option to select multiple emails at a time. Please add these features.

Constantly pops up the secure email screen even when other apps are running in the foreground. Doesn't obey silent notification setting when phone is in vibrate mode. Must have ringer turned on to not get notified for ever my email. Sadly, this is the best version released for android so far.
We are also experiencing the app opening randomly over other apps, very frustrating, when will there be a resolution to this issue.
Too many bugs to use
IT STARTED LOCKING UP AND WOULDN'T SYNCH WITH SOPHOS SECURITY
Much safer than a vault or a safe
How to activate it? Should it be administrator first?

This app is far from optimized for 8.0 or 8.1. Notifications show up for less than a quarter of emails received. Attachment service gets hung up resulting in a notification that can't be swiped away. App also crashes about once a day.
