I regularly try Apple Mail on MacOS, but I’m never satisfied. In few words:

  • I need something like “smart notifications” to only notify for important emails, and not all my incoming emails
  • Group emails (like what Gmail do), for exemple Newsletters, Notifications/ Promotional, …

If possible, I would like to use the same app on MacOS and iOS (iPad & iPhone). But Apple Mail is the worst app I’ve ever tested…

I’m currently using Spark (Desktop on MacOS + app on iPhone & iPad), the app is really good but not in term on privacy, dependent to a 3rd party, ….

What are you using for your emails on MacOS?

    Lately, email is virtually not a priority outside of work, and is pretty much just storage for service notifications, online receipts, vendor mail, and poor man’s mfa/password resets. I’ve got these classified decently well, and virtually all of these are read/acknowledged in near real time on my phone.

    Human to human comms are now over signal or discord, though admittedly I don’t have a great method to track items needing follow up.

    All said, how is thunderbird these days?

      Agreed. I you’re sending me an email, you better text me first to let me know or I won’t see it.

      Thunderbird is great imo.

    I use Mail.app for both

    Mail.app can do what you need.

    • If you assign your important contacts as VIPs, you can set notification settings to only notify fir VIPs

    • You can set up a rule to dump your newsletters into folders
