Airmail - Lightning Fast Email App Reviews

Most notably, I have not been able to Reveal hidden folders in the sidebar when in the the All Inboxes’ view. I hope that we havent seen an update in a while due to all of the developer focusing going to the new iPad app… Hope that will change very soon! :) Regardless of a few glitches, I really enjoy the power users features of this app and find it to be a great cross-platform experience.

I must say I really love this email client. the ability to snooze an email or the plethora of ways to share and send emails is fantastic. However, the desktop version here is missing a few critical but important things – not the least of which is an easy “save to PDF” option – which exists on the iOS version, but not on the desktop, which is baffling. Also, adding redirect and bounce to the message right-click shortcut menu would be great. Always have to go hunting. But the biggest peeve is a bug which prevents mails from loading fully into the preview window when you’ve discarded or moved the previous email. You must click off and then click again in the message list in order to get the mail to fully load. Sorry, but it’s been more than three months… recently had the opportunity to interact with support person Brenna, who was great. So an added star for support.

It was all good but then it suddenly refuses to send any email. Talk to the support but it’s not helpful. They said their developers will contact me but that never happens. I think it’s better for you to stick with Mac Mail since it’s more reliable, which is mroe important than any feature else.

The Airmal app has been a part of my life since I switched over from Windows to Mac. I was glad to hear there was an iPad version and bought that one, too. I also appreciate Airmail’s support. I mean in 5 minutes, I had a solution! Shout out to Mark who was all over it!

I installed Airmail on ipad, iphone, and iMac. They all work so well together and have it set up just the way I want. I did run into a glitch and got great tech support in a matter of seconds from Sheryln. Runs smooth! Just be prepared to spend a little time getting it customized. When you do you will be one happy camper!

The sidebar in this app makes it unusable. Gray on black.

I wish there was a way to give 4.5 stars, because I feel like Airmail falls just short of 5. There are flaws, no question: documentation is sparse (and the authors are in Italy, so English is not their first language in FAQs), and while Airmail is incredibly powerful, it can be quite tricky to find the feature you want. It is not always intuitive at first glance. They are working on putting together proper documentation, but it’s an ongoing process. However. Everything I have needed a mail client to do, there has either been a way to do it, or the authors have been responsive to feature requests and added that feature. Airmail’s under continuous development (albeit staggered; with only a couple devs, they tend to focus on iOS and put out a release, then focus on desktop, then iOS, etc.) and the authors are very attentive to their beta testers and user community. If there is a feature you need and you can describe it well despite the language barrier, chances are they’ll be willing to put that feature in for you. For the first time in ages, I have a client on my iPhone, iPad, and desktop machine that acts the same way on every platform and gives me the same functionality on each. My mail is my mail is my mail; no matter where I open the client, I will see the same view of my email reality. That fact alone has saved my sanity more than I can count. So for all the places Airmail could still be tweaked or improved (to wit: documentation!), this is still by far the least-horrible mail client I’ve yet used on any platform, and you can take it from me when you pry it from my cold, dead hands.

I’ve been using the Mac version since the beginning, and it’s really matured nicely. The iOS app is here now, including iPad. Great to have the same app on all my devices. I just went through support to deal with some funky Yahoo Mail problem. Mark work with me through chat, and he was prompt and helpful. Highly recommended app, Mac and iOS.

This app has improved greatly over the years! What was once a glitchy version of Sparrow, Airmail 2 is now my top email app for OS X. With every release it gets better and better. Great customer support (shout out to Mark Taylor)! Also they have a great user feedback program so that you can see progress on suggested features and add suggestions of your own. It’s still not perfect, but is the best option out there for OS X IMO and it’s constantly improving. Highly recommend! 4.5/5

Highly configurable. Send from Gmail aliases! Super-fast support. Much Microsoft Exchange email client than Outlook is. This is the best email client for OSX *and* iOS. Almost perfect— just add the ability to swipe to archive/swipe to snooze and we’re done.

A great application for mail. have 3 email accounts and this help keep them organized. good user interface and easy set up and maintenance. have on my Mac iPhone and iPad. highly recommend .

I really like this email client. There WAS another I liked more until I really sat down and started learning features. The support is top notch, quick turn around for answers and suggestions. (Thanks Sherlyn!!) I’m hoping to figure out some issues the boss is having (Some items in Exchange trash folder not appearing - on multiple email clients) after my work load from taxes slow down. But I needed to take a minute out to thank the developers for making the iPad app and having good folks like Sherlyn to help.

I have been using airmail for a few months now after I started experiencing trouble with the mail app that comes with my mac and the authentication from gmail. I couldn’t be happier to have make the move. Not only airmail is a very nice and powerfull email client but it also has a great customer support service. After I got some issues with accessing my email due to some file corruption I contacted airmail customer support and Mark Taylor help me to get everything back to work. He gave me good step by step instruction on how to fix my problem and got me up and running in a bliss. I like this app so much that I also made it my default mail app on the iphone as soon as they released the mobile version. Overall I am very happy with airmail and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a good alternative to the default mail app.

Works great with gmail and others. Support is top notch too. Mark from was a great help when I had a question.

I have to admit, this was purely an impulse purchase. I had my Apple Mail workflow down to a science, but had always felt a little discombobulated because I really do best in an integrated environment with email, todo and calendar. At first, I was completely overwhelmed by Airmail, and old, long-forgotten skill sets had to be invoked from the deep recesses of my long-term memory, but eventually I set up all my emails, including 2 work-related Exchange servers, Gmail, AOL, Yahoo!, Outlook and my ISP’s POP. (To say I “collect” email services would be an understatement). Airmail can even set up my local archive folders, which made me insanely happy as my workflow is to offload each month to a local mailbox and keep 2 year’s history on-hand in archive. The only disconcerting part was that the mailboxes converted to labels, and I’m not sure if that’s how I would have used labels. I’m also unsure how April will be set up or if I’ll have to fire up Apple Mail to set up April’s archive. The deal-maker for me, though, is the integrated support with Fantastical (which is what Apple’s Calendar *should have been.*) With just a few clicks, I can now set up emails to follow up on certain days as to dos in Fantastical (instead of having to manually create to dos in Apple’s Reminders, or invoke a third party to do manager and add complexity to my workflow). The only feature lacking is “in-line” rules creation: meaning, I can’t click on an email and create a rule using that email’s information. I have to open preferences and then cross-check. This is not a deal-breaker, but I hope it gets on the “future feature” list. I get a lot of diverse emails and rules are what keeps my inbox organized and tidy. being able to set up rules on the fly by clicking on the “offending” email would be amazingly helpful for me. The other “future features” I would suggest would be light mode and the ability to increase the size of the font in the left-most panel. While small light text on a dark background might work for some, it’s harsh for those who have an astigmatism or who wear progressive lenses (as computers fall into that no-man’s land in the middle: being neither close enough for the magnification nor far enough for the distance). Especially for those who have the real estate of the 27” iMac, being able to increase the point size of font where the email accounts and labels are listed would be a boon. In any event, a huge shout-out to Mark from Airmail for helping me figure out how to get my archives into Airmail. Overall, I still give this app 5 stars. Alongside Fantastical, I consider Airmail to be “what Apple should have provided” and consider it essential to my day-to-day.

Airmail has a ton of useful features, the developers have clearly been working hard on this app for awhile. Syncing w/ iCloud is great, I can keep the same settings and accounts across all devices. Also love the fact that Airmail is thoughtful about security and privacy. They don’t store your credentials unless you consent to it to enable push support and they dont store your messages on their servers. Plus their support is super responsive and helpful, Sherlyn has been helping me this morning with a couple ideas/requests and I’m very impressed! Keep up the good work!

I have had so many issues with Apple mail (mainly connectivity) and it is a visual monster. Airmail fixes most of the issues I have with the mail app. And today I had the chance to use their live online support - Sherlyn was a huge help. Kudo’s to their quick and accurate help. Please add the ability to drag images directly into Airmal from Photos - then I will have achieved mail perfection on the Mac

If you follow the general “Inbox Zero” ideas, Airmail seems to make it almost effortless to process your email. I haven’t felt this on top of my email in ages.

I have been using apple mail for quite a while now and it was always a pain in the neck. You could load more than one account but only one account would work at a time (if you were lucky). Most times it wouldn’t work at all. You couldn’t even create the account never mind actually send and receive mail. I broke down and purchased the AirMail2 app. All my accounts were loaded on my desktop and laptop in 15 minutes without a hassle. The accounts were actually created the first time I tried and they all work, so far, with out an issue. Best 10 dollars I have spent this year.

Now intergrates with iPad and iPhone so all the good stuff on all my devices. I use it for my work accounts and could not be happier since the updates.
