Linus Rath b9db3764ff fix: stop the cold start flashing white and the mail header jumping in
On a cold start the splash was followed by about a second of blank
white, then mail rows whose header sat under the status bar until it
popped in and pushed the list down.

- `AppTheme` had no `android:windowBackground`, so while JS loaded the
  window showed the platform default (near-white, or grey at night).
  It is now the app's own background, #ffffff by day and #09090b at
  night (`values-night`), matching `src/theme/tokens.ts`.
- `NavigationContainer` had no theme, so React Navigation painted its
  light default behind and between screens even in dark mode. It now
  uses the palette's background.
- The mail list took its top inset from the native `SafeAreaView`,
  which on Fabric only learns the insets a few frames after mounting.
  It now pads with `useSafeAreaInsets()`, which the navigator's
  safe-area provider fills from the initial window metrics on the first
  render; the value is the same, it just arrives in time.

Bulwark Webmail

Bulwark Mobile

Beta - work in progress. Many features are unfinished or rough. Expect bugs, missing functionality, and breaking changes between releases. Do not rely on this for primary email yet.

React Native (Expo SDK 54) client for Bulwark Webmail - a JMAP-based mail, calendar, and contacts app.

What works today

  • Sign in to any JMAP server (e.g. Stalwart)
  • Multiple accounts
  • Email list, threads, compose
  • Calendar (basic)
  • Contacts (basic)
  • Push notifications via the Bulwark relay - FCM by default, or UnifiedPush (e.g. ntfy) for devices without Google Play services
  • In-app sideload updates from GitHub Releases

What's missing or rough

  • iOS builds, but push notifications and client certificates are Android-only so far
  • S/MIME, plugins, themes - UI stubs only (filters & rules, the vacation responder and file storage are real implementations)
  • Calendar editing is partial; contacts editing is basic
  • No Play Store distribution yet (sideload APK from Releases); iOS ships via TestFlight

Run locally

npm install
npx expo start

Then press a for Android, i for iOS, or scan the QR with Expo Go.

For release APK builds and signing see docs/android-release.md. For iOS builds and TestFlight distribution see docs/ios-release.md.
