Are the good, opensource email clients out there that check emails at regular intervals and configurable filters? (programming.dev)

I've tried FairEMail and SimpleEmail, but they require opening the app to see emails. They seem to be forks or versions of each other without background syncing and (sorry) a terribly ugly interface. Neither seem to have filters.

Background syncing shouldn't be constantly on, just every 5-10 minutes or so. Normally I check once a day, but forget to quite easily and then miss an email. If it checked automatically even twice daily, that'd be enough.

I use FairEmail and I get notifications. I have it set to sync once an hour which works without issues. Maybe your android is killing it in the background? I also have a widget on my home screen showing recent emails, maybe that helps keep it alive?
