All of it, from the start
A new account brings in all its mail in the background, newest first: headers, bodies, attachments and the text inside them. You can read, search and write while it runs, and no dialog waits for it.
Mail, calendar and contacts for Windows, macOS and Linux
Mail, done as it should have been from the beginning.
AntiMail brings Gmail, Outlook and any other mail account together with their calendars and contacts. Mail is sorted into piles, kept on your computer and shown at once.

Mail
It never misses a mail
Each account brings in all its mail in the background, and AntiMail always shows how each account's sync stands.
A sync that restarts when it stalls
Each account shows whether it is up to date, syncing, offline or needs you to sign in again. A sync that stops moving for two minutes is restarted on its own, and the read and unread marks match the server's.
Always running
AntiMail starts with the computer and keeps running when its window is closed, so new mail, reminders and filters carry on. Both are switches in Preferences, on by default.
Yours, offline too
Your mail is kept on your computer, so what has arrived opens without a connection. Changes you make offline go to the server when you are back online.
Piles
Mail sorted into piles
AntiMail sorts incoming mail into piles by what it asks of you. Mail from new senders waits until you let them in.
- To answer
- To read
- Waiting
- Receipts
- Starred
- Pinned
- Set aside
- Done
- Kept out
All accounts together
Each account has its own piles and folders, or switch on Combine accounts to see the mail of every account in the piles at once. Every number on a pile matches its list.
Search that finds it
The search index is on your computer and grows as mail arrives. It finds words inside attachments too, and ranks the mail you are most likely looking for first.
Calendar
A calendar that follows your mail
Your Google, Outlook and other calendars in one place, with invitations added as they arrive.
Google, Outlook and more
Sign in to Google or Microsoft in your browser, with no password typed into AntiMail. iCloud, Fastmail, Nextcloud and other CalDAV servers work too, and changes go both ways.
Invitations in the calendar at once
An invitation is added to the calendar as its mail arrives, updated when it changes and marked when it is cancelled. Answer with Accept, Maybe or Decline; Teams, Zoom and Meet links show as a Join button.
Weather, the moon and the stars Pro
The forecast for each day and for outdoor entries, and a full report when you ask for one: hourly temperature, rain, wind, sunrise and sunset, the moon's phase and which nights are good for stargazing.
Nothing lost in a clash
When an entry was changed in two places, both versions are kept and you choose. A failed sync is shown on the calendar with the time it last worked.
Contacts
Contacts that stay in step
Google and Outlook, both ways
Contacts, their groups and pictures stay in step with Google and Outlook. A change made in AntiMail reaches the account, and a change made in the account reaches AntiMail.
Both versions kept
If a contact was changed in two places at once, both versions are kept so nothing is lost. Google's "other contacts" are shown apart and can be saved to your contacts.
Filters
Filters that do the sorting for you
Your own rules
A filter picks out mail by sender or content, with exceptions, and says what to do: move it, label it or colour its row. Where Gmail or Outlook can run the same rule, it runs on the server too.
Hand a mail on
A filter can hand a matching mail to a program you choose, such as passing crash reports to an assistant that looks into them. It runs once per conversation, within a daily limit you set, and its notes and status show under the mail.
AI access
Let an assistant help, on your terms
An AI assistant gets a key that you make, with only the rights you give it. Your rules decide what it may read and do.
A key with limits
Each key has its own rights (read, search, organise and write drafts), can be kept to some accounts and out of folders, and can be paused or revoked at any time. Sending is never given to a key, and every change it makes is logged and can be undone.
antimail-ctl on the command line
List, search and read mail, check how a sync stands and watch new mail arrive, as text or JSON. The connection is open only to your own user account on this computer, and it starts AntiMail when it is not running.
Privacy
What you read stays your business
No tracking pictures
Tracking pictures are removed before a mail is shown, and pictures from the internet load only when you allow them. Scripts, forms and frames in a mail never run.
Attachments kept apart
Documents are read by a separate helper program with a memory limit and a time limit, using AntiMail's own readers. Nothing inside a file is ever run, and programs in disguise are blocked.
Speed
Quick with 100 000 mails
AntiMail draws with its own renderer on the graphics card and does slow work on other threads, so the window never waits. Every action below stayed under 20 ms with 100 000 mails.
| A key typed in search | 4.6 ms |
|---|---|
| Opening a new mail to write | 2.0 ms |
| Changing the theme | 2.3 ms |
| Opening a large newsletter | 16.4 ms |
| Resizing the window | 14.7 ms |
| Scrolling the list | 1 frame in 667 over 10 ms |
Its own renderer
Vulkan where the graphics driver has it, OpenGL where it does not, and the processor as the last way. Preferences has a renderer setting: Automatic, Vulkan, OpenGL or Software.
Windows, macOS and Linux
The same AntiMail on all three, with the same features and the same look.
Download
In development
