Clean Email vs MailMop

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.

MailMop is a Gmail inbox-cleaning tool for identifying clutter and managing messages in bulk. It groups clutter by sender and shows message counts, then provides actions such as deleting, blocking senders, unsubscribing, marking messages read, applying labels, and creating filters. Gmail headers are analyzed through the Gmail API; when message content is needed to locate unsubscribe links, processing occurs in the browser rather than on MailMop servers. The service says it handles inboxes up to 500,000 emails, while its FAQ states there is no processing limit. MailMop works with one inbox at a time, but one Pro subscription covers all of a user’s inboxes. Basic is free and includes unlimited analysis, sender statistics, unsubscribe, export, and Gmail links. Pro costs $1.89 a year, billed annually at $22.68/year, adding one-click bulk actions, bulk delete, advanced filtering and labels, and sender blocking. It is available on the web or can be self-hosted for free.
