Email clients

Mailbird Next is a desktop email client for Windows and Mac, rebuilt on one codebase so it is the same app on both. Every account in one unified inbox, native calendar and contacts, and apps like WhatsApp and Asana in a panel beside your mail. Privacy Hub blocks trackers and remote images. An MCP server lets you connect Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor to your inbox; off by default, your mail stays on your computer. Free for one account, no time limit. Android app in beta now, iPhone coming soon.

This is the 8th launch from Mailbird. View more

Review Mailbird?

Mailbird is praised for its clean design and ability to manage multiple email accounts from a unified inbox, which users find time-saving and efficient. The integration with third-party apps like WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger is appreciated for reducing clutter. However, users note that the macOS version lags behind the Windows version in performance and features, with some experiencing sluggishness and bugs. The lack of a mobile app and advanced features like sophisticated filtering are also mentioned as areas for improvement. Overall, Mailbird is seen as user-friendly but with room for enhancement.

I've been using Mailbird for a while now, and overall, it's been a positive experience. The ability to manage multiple email accounts from a single, unified inbox is a significant time-saver. Its clean and intuitive design makes daily email management more efficient. What I Appreciate: 1) Unified Inbox: Bringing all my email accounts into one place simplifies monitoring and responding to messages without the need to switch between different platforms. 2) Integration Capabilities: Mailbird supports a variety of third-party apps like WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, and Asana. This integration allows me to handle communications and manage tasks directly from the Mailbird interface, reducing the clutter of multiple open applications. 3) Customization Options: The client offers various customization features, enabling me to tailor the interface to my preferences and enhance my workflow. Areas for Improvement: 1) Performance on macOS: While Mailbird has been available for Windows users for some time, the macOS version was released more recently and may not yet be as optimized as its Windows counterpart. I’ve encountered occasional performance issues and bugs on my Mac, which can be frustrating. 2) Mobile Support: Currently, Mailbird does not offer a mobile app. Having mobile access would be beneficial for managing emails on the go, and I hope this feature is considered for future development. 3) Advanced Features: While Mailbird covers the basics well, it lacks some advanced features found in other email clients, such as sophisticated filtering options and more robust search capabilities. In summary, Mailbird provides a streamlined and user-friendly email experience, particularly for those looking to consolidate multiple accounts. However, there is room for enhancement, especially regarding performance on macOS and the addition of mobile support.

I used Mailbird on Windows a while ago and quite liked it. When I saw that they planned to make a macOS version I signed up for their mail list immediately. Now, years later I finally got an email to join the beta and hopped right in. Unfortunately Mailbird has since switched away from developing a native app to electron. Mailbird is almost 1GB in size which makes it more than 30x larger than Apple mail. This enormous size leads to relatively long startup times and the interface has an overall sluggish feeling to it and doesn't feel native at all. Being not happy at all, I requested a refund only to get an automated email that the support email address they link to is no longer active. Bummer! I contacted their feedback address and have yet to receive a refund. Edit: The refund is now being processed! Bad product, bad business practices. Stay away.

Mailbird

Hi Rene, thanks for taking the time to share your concerns with us. We do wish to to take this opportunity to clarify that our app is NOT built on Electron, and that the size of the app does not impact its speed in any way. I'm sorry to hear that you had problems contacting us regarding your problems. Mailbird for Mac has a Support section in Settings > Support which our customers can use to contact us easily from the app itself. This is just the beginning of the road for Mailbird for Mac, as we intend to put a considerable amount of resources into gradually (and rapidly) expanding and refining its suite of features and functionalities in order to become the preferred email management solution for as many macOS users as possible. If you do decide to give us another go, we would be more than happy to investigate the issues your experienced with our app's speed in order to understand whether or not the root cause resides in Mailbird or elsewhere. All the best.

For a first edition of so called "excellent mail app" on windows now on Mac, there's still a lot of room for improvements. 1. drag and drop attachments is not working. 2. no multi-selection. 3. there's only a few setting options. 4. when i send an email on mailbird mac, I don't see a sent copy on my server & my phone I paid for lifetime. also for yearly upgrade. But I do hope they fix those problem fast cause i'm still thinking about the 14 day refund and why i pay for this when Apple Mail & Spark works just fine :)
