One of the best constantly updated synced between computers and you can store your emails on your own computer and they are in the standard interchange format eml. I have many accounts and it handles them with ease the app has build in features which you have to often buy plugin to to get equivalent features.

Years ago I gave it a shot and ran into all the problems described in the reviews here. Apparently things have not changed. I agree, it is a pity, lots of wasted potential.

Looks nicer than Apple Mail. But there are some minor-ish issues that persist, and support from the developer dropped off into the ether with no solution in sight. Overall if you're looking for a decent minimal client this would do nicely. - Rules flat-out do not work. Never have. Developer wasn't much help after asking for screenshots and telling me to rebuild them (tried that one several times). - Spam filter could use some serious polish. For the most part, it waits for you to tell it that a particular email is spam. Which is a bit of a pain. A third-party spam filter would be a must. - Names of accounts cannot be changed, which is different from earlier versions of the app. Also the main mail account name (which by default is your email address) sometimes will not appear, leaving a blank space (the icon for the account still shows).

The functionality available in this app indicates that they have the potential to be one of the best email apps for Mac. However, non-existent customer support and apparently zero interest in resolving minor issues for paying customers leads me to believe that this is not worth investing time or money in. I do not say this lightly and have checked back several times over a 14 month period in the hopes that some updates might have resolved these recurring issues, with no luck. Pity though, as these are issues that could conceivably be solved easily enough if they even pretended to care about the consumer of their software.

I am a user of airmail and paid for their app. However, I wrote to them several times (more than 3 times) for support for help and situations where I had problems with airmail. The follow up emails never got replied. Had to switch back to Mac Mail. My advice, Its a good app only if the support comes with it.

Given the complaints about always asking for a subscription even if you've paid, I wonder if anyone has evidence he's collecting and selling this information to 3rd parties. I think that's illegal in the EU. He blocks email from people who complain. I wonder if he'd block INTERPOL from arresting him.

Delete mail, then even empty the trash and then wait. Your deleted mail will show up again ads unread... Label mail as read... it will appear unread again after a while. Something really really wrong here...

Frankly I have nothing to complain about it, they reduced the annual fee and $10 is nothing. Totally nag free. I have access to 6 email accounts inc icloud and gmail. It works and syncs everything fine between my mac, iPhone and iPad, can customise lots of stuff. Way better than mac mail or any of the others and I've tried them all.

C'mon folks, they're asking $10/year which covers both Mac OS and iOS versions. There are other email apps with subscriptions charging $8 *per month* for a single platform. Developers are entitled to a living wage. Let's evaluate this application in terms of its features and how it compares to other email clients.

I used Airmail in the past but ever since they walked the subscription model I left the ship. Even if you have the 'old' license, you are 'awarded' by popups for joining the subscription. I truly hate that. I wend back to Mail on macOS 11 which is, to my surprise, incredible good and fast.

TERRIBLE customer service. Like others on here I have paid for a subscription but every time I launch the app I get a NAG screen telling me I have to subscribe. I've emailed the app developer, followed the instructions and NOTHING works. This app is a waste of time! Avoid at all costs.

I am generally satisfied with Airmail. But, now there is constant harassment from Airmail to upgrade to a yearly subscription to Airmail Pro. This is unacceptable. Is this going to continue forever??? It is becoming a good reason to try something else.
