Cannot set preference to launch Nylas Mail on startup

[nihil21]

Hi,
I'm running Nylas Mail 2.0.14 on KDE Neon 5.9. As you can see, there's no option to "launch on startup"

(I have libappindicator1 installed).

I tried to manually add a desktop file in ~/.config/autostart/ using --background option, but it resulted in two different instances

and one of them (the one launched at startup) is running in dev mode:

Do you have any idea? Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately this option is not available on our Linux build. You could do this manually depending on your environment.
Thanks!

Yes, I tried to manually launch Nylas Mail at startup by creating a desktop file in ~/.config/autostart, but as I wrote it resulted in multiple instances.

Same problem here. It worked well before the new version.

What is this?

Nylas version: 2.0.32 | OS: Archlinux | Desktop: Plasma

Problem: A new instance is started by The --background options!
