Good applications
- Joplin for notetaking, like OneNote

Setting up mail
Written with Apple in mind, which is more fiddly than most.
- Use Thunderbird
- Create App specific passwords
- Use the normal setup, TB will pick up most settings.
- After hitting Done, you will need to configure manually to change the Usernam
- Username is full e-mail address in all fields
