I regularly try Apple Mail on MacOS, but I'm never satisfied. In few words:

  • I need something like “smart notifications” to only notify for important emails, and not all my incoming emails
  • Group emails (like what Gmail do), for exemple Newsletters, Notifications/ Promotional, …

If possible, I would like to use the same app on MacOS and iOS (iPad & iPhone). But Apple Mail is the worst app I've ever tested…

I’m currently using Spark (Desktop on MacOS + app on iPhone & iPad), the app is really good but not in term on privacy, dependent to a 3rd party, ….

What are you using for your emails on MacOS?

Spark is pretty good. Has a nice MacOS and iOS app. I like the behaviour of swiping your email as “done” to make it disappear and keep your inbox clean. This is different from moving read email to a folder. You can set the default view of your inbox to only see email that have not been marked as “done”. Search is good too.

I really like Spark. The only thing that bothers me with Spark is that they have full access to my emails, and it's not very clear what they're used for.

and it's not very clear what they're used for.

Ads, probably.

Spark is the only way I can effectively handle email at this point.
