// mail — fast, quiet, and yours
A keyboard-first mail client for Windows. Your mail syncs down to your own computer, so search answers as fast as you can type and nothing you open reports back to whoever sent it.
Tag about twenty messages the way you actually think about them, and it starts sorting the rest — from a model built here, on your machine, that nobody else trained and nothing uploads.
Free · Windows 10 / 11 · Microsoft 365, Outlook.com, Gmail, or any IMAP mailbox
// a morning, in keys
Nothing there needs the mouse. That is the whole idea.
A search that goes off to a server and comes back a second later. A sidebar full of things that are not mail. Sorting done by rules somebody else wrote, that you cannot see and cannot correct. Ads in between the messages. The inbox is the most-used window on most people’s computers, and it has been getting heavier every year.
This goes the other way: the mail on your machine, the sorting learned from you, and everything else left out.
// how it works
01
Microsoft or Google, through their own sign-in page. No app passwords, no pasting in server names, no “less secure apps” setting to go hunting for.
02
It syncs to your own machine and stays there. From then on, searching is reading a local index rather than asking a server — which is why it answers as fast as you can type.
03
Call them whatever you actually call them — mum, invoices, school. One pass down your inbox is enough to start.
04
New mail lands where it belongs. Get one wrong and you correct it once. Nothing is hidden from you and nothing is deleted.
Archive, reply, snooze, tag, jump to a folder, find anyone. Your hands never have to leave the keyboard to clear a morning of mail.
The whole mailbox is indexed on your machine — every folder, not just the inbox. Look for an invoice from last March and it is there before you have finished typing.
One click exports any folder to a standard mbox file that other mail clients read. “Your mail lives on your machine” is worth nothing if you cannot get it out again.
// private by design
It is built on your computer, from your own tagging, and it starts empty. Not trained on anyone else’s mail, not shared with anyone else, and never sent away to be improved.
Remote images stay blocked until you ask for them, so opening a message does not tell the sender that you read it, when, or roughly where you were.
The sorting, the search index and the writing checks all run on the machine in front of you. There is no account with us, and no copy of your mail on our side to have.
// on purpose
Everything left out was left out deliberately, and each one is a reason it stays fast.
It will accept and decline a meeting invitation, because those arrive as mail. It will not become the place you plan your week.
Every one of those was bolted onto somebody’s mail client, and every one of them made the mail slower.
No ads in the inbox, no promoted senders, nothing dressed up as a message that is not one.
What it does add is the small stuff that saves a morning: rules you make by pointing at a message you always treat the same way, saved replies, a nudge when someone has not written back, and a quiet read on a draft before you send it — how long your sentences are next to theirs, and whether you said “attached” without attaching anything.

Free, quick to set up, and simple enough to put on your mum’s computer — which is exactly why it was built.
