Hey ProductHunt, Brandon from Polymail here! We wanted to build a simple way for people to clean up their inbox and control their emails without having their data sold to marketing intelligence firms. Over 1/4 of users that came into Polymail reported inboxes filled with tens of thousands messages, and a bunch of unwanted newsletters and subscriptions accumulated over the years. It was a super daunting task to even think about cleaning up their inbox. We wanted to do two things to help these users 1. Easily see email subscriptions and remove the ones you don't want 2. Clean up these emails, and older emails to get your inbox into a manageable state. You’ll get a weekly digest of all the emails that were blocked from your inbox, and you’ll be able to hit inbox zero in minutes! Now we're excited to open the Beta up to everyone here at Product Hunt! Currently you can only sign up using a Google account through the Unsubscriber site, but if you sign up through Polymail and add an account, it will work with all major email providers (Google, Office 365, iCloud and IMAP) Excited to hear your thoughts and look forward to your feedback!

@brandon_shin I like the idea, but I'm wary of giving any service access to my email. How will you reassure me?

@brandon_shin Hello, just tried it on my gmail account and it's saying it ran into an issue and to rescan. When I click on rescan it's saying that my account is not a valid state. I'm in texas.
Akanimoh Idio
@j5uh Lol. I guess texas isn't valid. Move to Ohio. It might work

@brandon_shin @jackerhack Great question! We built Polymail as a paid service, and wanted to build a tool for our users to easily clean out their inbox without having their data harvested or sold to outside parties. We also follow all the best security practices, including encryption at rest, SSL, and more, and have passed a third-party security audit to work with Gmail's API. Happy to answer any specific questions or concerns you may have!

@brandon_shin @j5uh Could you try again, it should be working now, as we just deployed some changes. Can also email us at hello at polymail.io, and we can get to the bottom of it! 💌

Does this actually unsubscribe or does it just filter it out of your inbox?

@i_am_brennan Great question! At the moment we filter it out of your inbox. We do get requests to follow the unsubscribe links, and that is something we will be keeping in mind for future 😊
Jack Smith
@i_am_brennan oh wow. great question. yes, I'd want it to do actually unsubscribe me, not just filter emails
Brennan McEachran
@_jacksmith Don't get me wrong, and ethical unroll is great. But starving to actually unsub from the emails at this point. I'm in too deep.
Onutz Verde
@i_am_brennan @shahan312 Actually, filtering out messages can be easily done in GMail, with mark as spam. Filter out makes the users dependent on your app, while following unsubscribe links doesn't. It would be a fair and square service for which I would pay a penny or two.

Unroll.me used to do this, then we learned it was just a front for them harvesting data (receipts, etc) from email. What’s your policy on reading/sharing your users’ email?
Brennan McEachran
@idris_mokhtarzada Says on their site they'll never do it

@idris_mokhtarzada Hey Idris great question! Simply put that's not our business model! We built Polymail as a paid service and we wanted to create a tool for our users that didn't harvest and sell their data to outside parties! We also wanted to make it easy to manage the tool from directly within Polymail as well!

@tjzastrow We just pushed some changes that should fix the scanning issues that some were experiencing earlier. If you could try again, it should work now. Can also send us a note at hello@polymail.io, and we can get to the bottom of it! 💌

I've been using this beta for a month now... - Saves me 1-2 hours per week, not having to manually archive/delete spam - Very easy setup - Even provides a nice weekly summary of what messages were filtered out, aka 👍

Camila Arias
Looks great! I wonder if it also has a way to automatically unsubscribe from a range of domains, for example, noreply domain.

@camila_arias_treble_ai Thanks Camila! That's not supported yet at the moment but it's a great piece of feedback, we're looking into adding support for rules in Polymail that could help accomplish something like this!

@bshins Great! Awesome product!
