How does this compare to MixMax for a Gmail user?

@jhtdc Hi Jason! It will depend on what kind of features you're looking for. We find Mixmax to be tailored for sales-focused uses while our wide range of features are handy for both personal or business email communication. Free / lower tier users of Mixmax have limited access to their Business features - our free plan (Essential) allows 30 free monthly Professional / Business actions. We also offer Email Signatures (templates+custom builder) that you can share across Mailbutler teams, which Mixmax doesn't. For more info you can check out our full list of functions and pricing here: www.mailbutler.io/pricing 🙏

I've been using a prior version of MailButler for several months now and I love the features it adds to Apple Mail. I'm excited to try version 2.0! Read receipts alone make it totally worth it.

@austriker27 Thanks for the kind words! 😍

I like Mailbutler v1.x very much.

Mailbutler 2.x should be taken back to the repo for now.

Scheduling a delayed email does not work. The scheduling alone takes 20 seconds and always ends with a SOAP error:

Don't be fooled by the schedule message, it does not work.

Also "unschedule and edit" takes another 20 seconds.

I hate that now everything is in the cloud for Apple Mail even the settings. I get that it makes sense because of their plans, but I for example have zero interest in tracking (I don't want any communication with their servers) or cross platform usage.

The delay sent now is an Apple OS notification and is lacking the additional info with recipients and sender. This is vital for me as I use multiple email accounts.

I have downgraded for now and am enduring that Mailbutler 1.x fails to recongnise my purchase which is just ... 🧐

Talking to support was fruitless.

What a disappointment.

My advice. Stay on version 1.x for now.

Pros:

Compared to version 1 SASS structure I guess

Cons:

Buggy

As a lifetime member and business plan subscriber,I really enjoy the concept, its surely one of a kind! There are a few things I would like to point out. The newer Beta 2.1 works better than the original version 2.1, not sure how that makes any sense. The "show contact information" button is great now because I can have my mac mail open as well as automatically have the "mcard" or Contact information window constantly open. I don't understand why I have to click on the contact information tab then CLICK AGAIN on the smaller grey triangle to the left of the name to get their info. I should be able to click the "view contact information" tab and VIEW THE INFO (like on the older version) not have to click again. Also, why is the contact info highlighted in RED? That would make it seem as if there is something wrong. I would suggest highlighting it in the company teal green. Email tracking is great, when it works. with 2.0, I send out emails, then when i go to my sent tab and click on an email i sent, I get a notification that the RECIPIENT opened the email. UMMM no, I just did so why is it telling me that the recipient did. Are we able to go back to the original MailButler until this is fixed? Suggestions: Mail Merge option- that would seal the deal!

The main reason I use Mailbutler is for saving emails to Evernote. This features is either missing in v2.0 or undocumented.

I reverted to v1.0 and am waiting for v2.0 to be ready for prime time.

Pros:

Added some new features and upgrades

Cons:

Buggy, certain features missing, documentation is based on old product.

I loved the email pause feature and sadly it has been removed. More importantly, the security issues introduced in v2 are a deal-breaker for me. If the makers are reading this, is there a way to still subscribe and use the old version? I deleted my account yesterday, but would start a paid subscription if I can still use the previous version.

Pros:

None for me at this time

Cons:

Security issues, removed useful features

Installation with DayLite Installed results in mail crash and inability to access the mail preferences. Works fine in the old version.

Pros:

New Features

Cons:

Incompatible with DayLite Mail Plugin

Looks like a nice product. Any idea if this fixes one problem I have with Apple Mail on my Mac? I archive all my messages and there‘s starred messages which show up normally in Gmail, but they won‘t appear in Apple Mail, because they‘re not in my inbox anymore. If Mailbutler makes all my starred messages show up again, I‘d be so freaking happy.

Airmail Integration on the roadmap?
