Maeil Mail is a simple and practical email app for POP receiving and SMTP sending. Add your company or personal POP mail account to receive messages when the app starts, then send new messages, replies, reply-all messages, and forwarded mail through your SMTP server. You can manage multiple accounts, view mail by account, and choose the sender account when composing. Key features - Receive mail with POP - Send mail with SMTP - Manage multiple mail accounts - Inbox and Trash - Mail search - View HTML mail, image-based messages, and attachments - Pinch to zoom message content - Reply, reply all, and forward - Send attachments - Add, search, import, and export contacts with CSV - Security warnings before opening external links and attachments - Configure how long received mail remains on the server Server retention is based on the time the message is received on this device. The default retention period is 45 days. Messages stored on the server are kept unread during receiving so they can still be received by other mail clients. Maeil Mail focuses on the essential features needed for POP/SMTP email without unnecessary complexity.

About

Aires Seal

Features

Aires Seal adds real encryption to the email you already use. Connect any mailbox that speaks IMAP - your company server, your web host, or your self-hosted mail - with your email and password. Your mail stays where it is. Aires Seal doesn't move it, doesn't copy it to a new account, and doesn't ask you to change addresses. What it adds is one thing your mailbox never had: encryption that lives on your phone. SEAL A MESSAGE Pick any message and seal it. Aires Seal encrypts it with a key generated and kept only on your device, then replaces the stored copy with standard PGP ciphertext. Your mail server holds gibberish. Unseal any time to read it again. THE KEYS NEVER LEAVE YOUR PHONE Encryption keys are created on-device and stay there. Not on our servers, not on your provider's. Back them up yourself, to your own password manager, whenever you like. YOUR MAILBOX, UNCHANGED Read, search, reply, move and organize your real mailbox natively. Sealing is something you choose, message by message - nothing is encrypted or moved without you. WORKS WITH MOST MAIL HOSTS Any server that supports IMAP and SMTP. (Gmail and Outlook sign-in are coming in a later update.) Aires Seal is for people who want to keep their existing email and finally be able to lock a message so only they can open it.
