Sorry to post in the wrong section, but I have a minor problem that somewhat bothers me.

In some emails I will receive a series of numbers. Aqua Mail will think this string of numbers of as a phone number that I can touch and send to the dialer.

However, it's not a phone number but rather a username I need to copy/paste into a formular.

I can't long press this blue string of numbers to bring up the markers to copy text.

Could this be fixed somehow?


Other than that: Aqua Mail Pro is the best mail client I have ever had.

Using Sony C6603, Android 4.3.

Regards,

Easy, configurable:

When the whole accounts list is displayed,
Parameters...
...Messages display ("Affichage des messages")
...Show phone numbers as links ("Identifier les numéros de téléphone, permettre d'appeler directement les numéros de téléphone") UNCHECK THIS OPTION!

Please note: words in brown here may not be the exact wording, my Aquamail works in French!

Well, there is some heuristics in the app for phone numbers (vs. not),  but it's not bullet-proof.

Yes, that's how you turn it off. In app settings, under Message view.

And... recent development builds let you long press a highlighted phone number and select Copy from a popup menu.
