MailKeep

Every Migadu mailbox, in one place. MailKeep is a mail client for Migadu. It is built for people who run several addresses across their own domains. Give it your Migadu API key once and it finds every mailbox on your account - you never set up another account by hand. MADE FOR MIGADU ONLY MailKeep works with Migadu accounts. It is not a general mail app and it does not connect to Gmail, Outlook, iCloud or other providers. ONE KEY, EVERY MAILBOX Enter your Migadu account email and API key. MailKeep lists every domain and mailbox on the account and connects the ones you choose. It never changes your mailbox passwords, so the mail apps you already use keep working. A REPLY CANNOT LEAVE FROM THE WRONG ADDRESS Each mailbox has its own inbox, its own colour, and its own compose screen. A reply is bound to the address it arrived at. There is no From picker to get wrong. FOLDERS Inbox, Drafts, Sent, Archive, Junk and Trash, matched by what the server marks them as rather than by name. Sent mail is filed as the same message that was delivered, so replies thread properly. WRITE PROPERLY Bold, italic, underline, bullets and links. Formatted mail goes out as both plain text and HTML, so it reads correctly wherever it lands. NOTHING LEAVES YOUR PHONE No account with us, no server, no analytics, no tracking, no ads. Your credentials live in the device Keychain and are kept out of iCloud backups. Your mail travels between your device and Migadu and nowhere else. TRY IT FIRST Open a sample inbox from the first screen without any account at all. MailKeep is an independent app. Migadu does not make it and does not endorse it. Migadu is a trademark of its owner.
