Emailing is probably the activity we do the most on our computers. Even if you don't work on a computer during the day, you probably sit down in front of it to check your inbox at the end of the day. If the Mail app that comes with your Mac doesn't provide the features you need, you're in luck. There are dozens of great email apps in the Mac App Store.

I've tested many of them and these are my favorites. Each one has a little something special that makes it unique. If you've been using Newton Mail, you've that Cloud Magic is shutting the app down in September. If, like me, you were a huge fan and are now looking for something to replace it, these alternatives are my favorite mail apps for Mac.

• • • • Polymail. I was a little late to the game with Polymail and only started using it recently on Mac (though I downloaded it on iOS when it first launched). It turns out, I love it on the Mac. It has a fantastic interface with cute little buttons everywhere so you don't have to think about what to do next.

Best Free Email Service Providers: Free email services have become the main way of communication on this modern web.Today most of us own free email services like Gmail, Outlook and Yahoo mail. Microsoft. These three free email services remain the center of email communication for many years. The award-winning free Mailbird desktop email client supports multiple email accounts including Outlook, Google, Yahoo, Exchange, and IMAP accounts and enables you to easily manage all of them as.

It actually looks like it belongs on a mobile device, except that you click the buttons instead of tapping them. There is a fourth section that appears whenever you select an email, which displays all of the past correspondences you've had with that particular contact or group of contacts. It's great for quickly tracking down something you've talked about in the past. You can set up new mail with a pre-made template, send calendar invites, get notifications when someone has read your email, and schedule an email to be sent at a later time. You can also write or respond to emails with rich text formatting.

So, if you want to change the font, add bold lettering, bullet point a section, or just slap an emoji in there, it's all available right from the toolbar at the top of your new email. The only thing it's missing is Touch Bar support, which would really make this app shine. Polymail can be used for free, but you'll need to sign up for a subscription if you want all of the awesome features that make Polymail stand out, like read notifications, send later, and messaging templates. You can add these features for as low as $9 per month. If you are a heavy email user and these features entice you, give the free trial a run to see if it's worth your money.

• Free with a monthly subscription - Spark. Spark has this 'Smart Inbox' feature that separates out what is Personal, Notifications, Newsletters, Pinned, and Seen. That is, any email that is from someone in your contacts or otherwise looks like a personal email will be filtered to the top of the inbox list. Below that, in a separate section, emails that look like alerts from companies you deal with, like your gas company or Amazon, that include some kind of alert or notification. Below that, you'll see a section called 'Newsletters' which is exactly that.

Below that are emails you've flagged or tagged as important in some way. Lastly, emails you've seen, but haven't moved to another folder. Spark also allows you to snooze an email and come back to take care of it at a later time. This is invaluable when you regularly get emails that you need to respond to but don't have time for until the end of the day.

I use it all of the time. It also has gesture-based actions for getting to inbox zero. You can swipe to the right or left to delete, archive, pin, or, mark an email as unread. And it has Touch Bar support, which I love.

Spark is best for people that like to have their inbox organized before they go through and move emails to new folders, address them, or delete them entirely. If that sounds appealing to you, try Spark. • Free - Airmail.

Airmail treats your emails like a to-do list. You can triage your inbox by scheduling when you are going to take care of an email. If you can't get to it right now, snooze it for later. If it's an email that requires an action, send it to your to-do folder.
