Seb's instructions:
Scenario 1 (restarting device starts mailbox on boot if mailbox was set up and started before reboot)
* Set up mailbox on a fresh device and pair it with briar.
* Restart device. Confirm that mailbox **does start** automatically after boot. Be patient, it can take 1-2 minutes for the mailbox to actually start.
* "App starts" in all cases here means that the notification with the mailbox logo does appear in the notification area, not that the app's activity gets launched.
Steps to execute:
Install mailbox and complete the set up - ie scan its QR code by the Briar app, and verify that the status screen shows 'connected', as does the notification drawer.
Then reboot the mailbox device.
Mailbox should start by itself - ie the notification drawer should show the mailbox is running.
Mailbox should start by itself - ie the notification drawer should show the mailbox is running.
When the user taps the mailbox icon, the mailbox status screen should show 'mailbox is running'.
At the same time - Briar app should show the user that mailbox is running too?
At the same time - Briar app should show the user that mailbox is running too? **TBD**
During the reboot, if all goes well and reboot is done quickly enough, then there is no change in Briar - but if reboot lasts more than some threshold then Briar should show that the connectivity with mailbox is interrupted. This is 'threshold' is still TBD (see MM discussion of June 01 in testing channel
"yes, i think if you reboot the mailbox device and the mailbox app automatically restarts as intended, then briar is unlikely to reach the threshold where it shows a notification to warn about the mailbox being unreachable

we haven't decided exactly what that threshold should be - that's to be decided during testing - but ideally it should be high enough that we don't unnecessarily bother the user when there's a temporary issue like the mailbox rebooting"
