In their own words
Clean Email
Clean Email helps people manage busy inboxes by grouping messages for bulk organization, archiving or removal. Its Unsubscriber lists subscriptions and newsletters for bulk unsubscribing, while Auto Clean rules can move, star, mark, delete or archive messages according to criteria such as sender, domain, status and age. Screener holds messages from unknown senders for review, where users can allow or block them. The service connects directly to mailboxes from Gmail, Yahoo, AOL, iCloud, Outlook and other IMAP providers, so it can work alongside an existing email app. Apps are listed for Android, iOS, macOS and the web. Clean Email says its index stores message metadata, not message bodies or attachments by default; it deletes the index after 45 days without a login or when an account is removed. A free account cleans up to 1,000 messages, but excludes Screener, Sender and Mailing List Settings, and Auto Clean. The pricing note lists paid plans from $9.99/mo and a 14-day trial; premium plan prices are not itemized here.
