Boxy 2 is
the first major update to the powerful and minimal email client for Mac, powered by ‘Inbox by Gmail’. It features a redesigned interface, revamped multi-account and notification system, new themes and features, and tons of improvements.
Does it work with google apps for business emails?

@artyomkarapetov Yes, but your domain admin has to enable inbox in organization.

Hands down my favorite gmail inbox app. The only one that has stood the test of time staying installed through my periodic MAC app clean-outs :-). Love that you recognized the need for a desktop app without dramatically overhauling Google’s inbox UI concept. Since Boxy is only on desktop, that gives me a consistent UI experience managing email across desktop, tablet and mobile (using native inbox app on mobile/tablet, boxy on MAC) with Boxy.
Downloaded the new version and excited to play around with it.

I've been using Boxy2 for 2 days, but it's a no-go for me. The app has many bugs and isn't very reliable.
I am working with 4 G Suite accounts. Switching between them is a pain, because I am seeing 2-4 seconds of loading screen every time.
App is crashing very often when switching between accounts (I am experiencing crashes every 1-2 hours of work)
It's hard to work with attachments, when you are signed into 4 accounts. When you try to download an attachment, new tab in browser is being opened. But since you're also signed into 4 accounts on Google Drive, there's a permission problem and you can't download the attachment.
There are more cons caused by design and logic - example: you need to keep separate contact lists for each account.
Boxy2 may be perfect when you're working with just one G Suite account. If you work on multiple accounts - you'll be more frustrated than productive ;)
I am going back to Spark.
Oh, and it's sad there's no trial. It looks like I've just wasted money just to convince myself that this app is not for me.

Seems a bit buggy when clicking on links in emails. I'd love to see a way to block read receipts.

I think i'l go back with Polymail because of the performances issues.
Pros:
The best Gmail Inbox Client • Clean interface • Multiple separated accounts
Cons:
Slow performances when in front (75%-100%) • Takes a lot of memory (600mb minimum)

Great app, I have been using it since initial launch. Great update as well! I like the pure White interface. Minor bug though: emails always return back to top when scrolled down while enlarged to full screen via button.
