Edison Mail users that activated a new Sync features are reporting that they can see emails and account not belonging to them inside their Edison Mail apps.

Edison Mail confirmed this morning that this seems to be a bug and not a security breach and that they are notifying affected users.

Edison claims the number of users is small but even so, this is a major flaw and one that put Edison Mail security and reliability practices in doubt.

If I was an Edison Mail user I will definitely bee looking for an alternative as I don't want my private emails ending on sone random persons inbox.

Statement from Edison

"10 hours ago a software update was rolled out to a small percentage of our iOS users. Some of these users who received the update are experiencing a flaw in the app impacting email accounts that were brought to our attention this morning. We have quickly rolled back the update. We are contacting the impacted Edison Mail users (limited to a subset of those users who have updated and opened the app in the last 10 hours) to notify them.

At this time this appears to be a bug and not a security breach.”
