FYI: They store your credentials on their servers. Its not like outlook/thunderbird where you credentials are stored locally.

Thanks for letting me know! Did not know that.

That is quite scary to be honest and do you know the reason as to why they do this?

I believe that's only if you enable and use Send Later (because they need to be able to send an email in your name, even if your device is offline).
