In their own words
BlueMail
BlueMail is an email client that brings accounts from multiple providers into a unified inbox. It supports IMAP, Exchange (ActiveSync), POP3, Office 365, Gmail, Yahoo, iCloud, Outlook and other standard providers, and includes offline access and an integrated calendar. Clusters automatically group messages, while People-Centric organization arranges the inbox around people. GemAI can summarize threads, draft replies in the user's voice and rewrite messages for tone, length or clarity. Users can share threads to Slack, Notion and Linear; Messaging Bridge lists Slack, Teams, WhatsApp and SMS. BlueMail says it syncs directly with email providers rather than storing emails on its servers, and encrypts data in transit and at rest, with optional end-to-end PGP encryption. Blue Guard protections include phishing detection, attachment quarantine and pixel-tracker blocking. Apps are listed for Android, iOS, Linux, macOS and Windows.
