Hello from Berlin! 👋  Firstly, a huge thank you to Ton (@t55) for hunting us. It was 2 years ago when we first introduced Mailbutler, a lightweight plugin for Apple Mail that brings an extensive range of productivity-boosting features. We're grateful to have helped over 100k users to leverage their every day productivity on Apple Mail. At the same time we saw a problem with the growing number of Gmail plugins on the market each offering different and complex functions: they work, but they don't necessarily work together. This is exactly why we've decided to bring the simplicity of Mailbutler to a second platform. Our team worked really hard over the past few months to perfect your experience with Mailbutler, and today we're excited to share with you our biggest update so far: the new Mailbutler is now fully ready for both Apple Mail AND Gmail, with new and improved features. Please leave us any comments, suggestions, or feedback - hearing from you is how we get better. 🙏 Thank you for checking us out, we hope you enjoy your freshly charged inbox! Cheers, Fabian and the Mailbutler team

wish I could just pay for it once.. but awesome program that has become a staple on my mail client. I've told all my friends about it.

Pros:

Smooth, lightweight, convenient and very unintrusive

Cons:

subscription

Fabian Jäger
That's so great to hear! Thank you for sharing Mailbutler with your friends too. 🙏
Glenn Lidstone
I agree! Don't like the subscription model for what is basically an add-on utility!

As a subscriber of the service I was eager to try the new Mailbutler version. Mailbutler is probably one the few utilities I use on a regular basis the whole day, and it's a valuable companion for my project management job.

However, I found the newer 2.0 version to be extremely unstable and buggy, so much that I had to reinstall the previous Mac plugin.

Moreover, some of the functionalities it was once possible to disable (like displaying thumbnail pictures on the email list or getting rid of the menu icon) are currently there to stay.

I already emailed the company, hopefully they'll come back soon.

For now my suggestion is: use the gmail extension or remain to the old Mac plugin.

Pros:

complete, clever, integrated

Cons:

buggy

Fabian Jäger
Thank you for the feedback, Antonio! We collected a lot of feedback during beta and we promise it will only get better in every update. 😄 We'll definitely be fixing the issues you mentioned.

Mailbutler makes Apple Mail usable! It's impossible for me to imagine what life was like pre-Mailbutler. Now adding support for Gmail completes the product for me (Although I only occasionally use Gmail to send/receive emails). Send later is a great feature when you want to write a bunch of emails on Sunday night but don't want to look like a creepy stalker. You just set it to send at 7:45 on Monday morning. ;-) The ability to unsend a message, a 10 second delay after you hit 'send,' has proved invaluable for me. Sure, we've had that feature for years on Gmail but not on Apple Mail which is the client I prefer to manage my Gmail and other email accounts from. Sometimes you don't know if you have the correct email address. It's why tracking is a such a key feature. You know when your email was opened. How about that email that requires action but you can't get to it right away. Snooze it for an hour or two and then it's back on top of your email feed. Congrats on Mailbutler 2.0!
Fabian Jäger
@stephenchip Thank you so much for the support! 🙏

Hey guys! Great work! I enjoy using the freemium. However, the subscription model for an add-on doesnt really makes sense.
Joris Crozier

I'm using it since few months and I like it, I'm paying it but since upgrade to version 2, I'm paying for nothing because my datas are on old version, can you transfert it so I can enjoy email traking again ?

Thanks

Pros:

clever, integrated

Cons:

buggy ?

as a mac user myself, i never understand why would people pay money to upgrade apple native apps while there are so many free tools around? how will it make apple's native mail app better then, say, Spark mail?
Flowsion
I've tried a lot of different apps and always end up going back to the native Mail app. I think MailButler is made for people like me, who would rather use Mail app than all the other programs out there. It's not necessarily for those who prefer something like Spark Mail, unless you prefer it because Mail is missing a few features and would love to jump back.

@igor_march Hi Igor! We believe Mailbutler offers a simpler and more intuitive approach to boost email productivity. While Mailbutler is not a stand alone client, we integrate a wide range of functionalities that are missing into Apple Mail / Gmail - this is done seamlessly and with little to no interface change -- which many find annoying when switching to an entirely new email app. Hope this answers your question :)
