The Best Email App for Windows 10 in 2021
Posted by Christin on January 1, 2021

Finally, Mailbird for Windows 10 Is Here!
…and it has been delivered to millions of patient users’ PCs and devices all over the world already. Microsoft has lauded Mailbird as the best email app for Windows 10 for its ability to make you a master at multitasking and adapt to your behavior, transforming your PC into your personal assistant.
The technology giant recently introduced new cutting-edge features, such as Cortana integrated into the Edge web browser, which allows you to write or type directly on web pages, and now they’re taking the PC experience to a new level.
We believe you need an email client that matches the new, beautiful appearance of Windows 10 — an all-in-one communication and productivity suite that can keep up with the most productive Windows ever released, putting old-fashioned and cluttered clients out of business. Welcome to the Windows 10 version of Mailbird. It’s glorious.
Many Windows 10 fans are complaining about its native email client, saying that it has been disappointing. However, the feedback on Mailbird for Windows 10 has been awesome, starting in just the first hours of its launch.
Looking for the best Email App for Windows 10?
Try out the best one!
Why Is Mailbird the Best Email App for Windows 10? Here’s What Users Have to Say
Q: What brought you to Mailbird in the first place?
A: I was disappointed that the Windows 10 default email client failed at “Email Privacy Tester” and at displaying quoted messages from Mac’s email client.
After trying Windows 10 Mail, I still prefer Mailbird over Mail 🙂 Mailbird feels more minimalist, lightweight, and has better shortcuts. Also, Mailbird shows all mail in the same thread on the same page, which Mail doesn’t.
Q: What makes Mailbird the best Windows 10 email app?
A: Perfect Windows 10 Integration!
Recently, I migrated to Windows 10 and I was torn away with the limitations of the Windows mail app. That’s when I told myself enough is enough and I started searching for a new mail app. So I headed to Google search and started looking for the “best Windows 10 mail app” and there it was “Mailbird” popping on the first page.
At first, I was hesitant to upgrade to the Pro version so I started the trial version while watching the video of getting started with Mailbird. I kept smiling as I learned about all the great features and shortcuts. By the time the video ended; I was completely sold! I went right ahead and purchased the Mailbird Lifetime package. Thank you Mailbird and I cannot wait to share this app with friends and family.
And There’s More: Mailbird Updates
Not only have we improved the speed at which messages are sent (especially from slower servers), we also added a new Auto Layout Feature.
Auto Layout
With this cool integration, your Mailbird adapts its layout automatically when rotating your tablet. (Please note that it will only work on tablets.)
Touch Screen Support
The Mailbird All-Star development team has been working hard to improve the Touch Screen Support in Mailbird. Even though it is not native, you will be able to enjoy Touch support using Mailbird in Windows 10, and you will LOVE it.
Degoo Integration
We also added a new App called Degoo.
Degoo is a free backup service that gives users automatic, secure online backup in exchange for sharing some of their unused hard drive space. This comes in very handy for people who have to send out a large number of files in one email. Find out more about Degoo in our next blog post.
Try Mailbird with Windows 10
Update to Windows 10 now and simply swipe away all your email problems once you get on Mailbird — the best email app for Windows 10 by reviews.
Editor’s Note: This post was originally published in July 2015 and has been updated for accuracy and comprehensiveness.
Yes, Windows 10 has an email program. In fact, there are many email apps that work with Windows, and one of the top-rated is Mailbird for many reasons, including:
– It’s modern and user-friendly, especially if you have more than one email account.
– It’s highly customizable so you can easily change the layout, theme, or background picture.
– It has awesome features, such as in-line replies, email scheduling, a native calendar, and more.
– Mailbird also integrates with other awesome apps, such as Degoo or Asana.
You can download Mailbird, one of the best email clients, from the official website in a few simple steps:
– Go to https://www.getmailbird.com/.
– Click on the Free Download button.
– Wait for the .exe file to load and open it.
– Go through all the steps in the Mailbird Installer.
– Done! Launch the app and start testing all the features.
Mailbird is rated as the best email program by many users and organizations. A lot of people particularly like it for the sophisticated features, including the shortcuts option that is immensely time-saving.
Both apps are email clients, though Mail for Windows 10 is a very simple app, while Outlook often seems daunting with the abundance of features it offers. If neither app suits your ideal, you can try Mailbird. It is an email client for managing multiple accounts that is highly rated by many people and organizations.
So far the best client in Windows… clean, minimal and functional. Support has been great. They had not only solved an impending issue I had faced through active updates, but adapted a few suggestions I made too. Still there are many features that are left to be adapted to make MB perfect and I am sure they will soon.
very nice features you guys added. I’ve switch to this a few months back and havent even used gmail website to check my email since then XD
Love the mailbird app š
I’ve updated Mailbird to the latest version on my Windows 10, but I did not see the auto layout option. Am I missing anything?
It will work only if you are using a tablet.
Loved W8 and W8.1 Mail App but since W10 it’s a nightmare. So happy that I found Mailbird! Full Outlook app is getting better but even a 2016 preview is just a mess :/
Massive THANK YOU from Poland! š
Hey guys, thanks for your awesome and loyal support, that really means a lot to us. We are always looking for motivated and supportive Alpha Testers like you are, so let me know if you are interested:-) Have a great week.
Are you going to look into W10 Action Center / Tiles integration? Really that’s the only thing W10 Mail App has going for it.
Hey Viniter, thanks or your feedback. we are actually looking into that, but can not guaranty that it will be possible. We will keep you guys updated on that though;-) Happy Friday.
I’ll love it, but since the last update yesterdays I haven’t been able to launch the program. I am using windows 10. Do you have any solutions? I try to reinstall but that did not help. I miss my mailbird!
Hi Mikkel
Have you tried to restart your Windows? Also, could you check your Task Manager, to see whether Mailbird.exe is running or not. Lastly, is there any error message pop up when you start Mailbird?
No google calendar notifications..
Not for now. Please feel free to suggest it in our feature request forum here: https://mailbird.zendesk.com/forums/20792535-Feature-Requests
Thats helps us priorities. Have a great weekend and thanks for your support:-)
http://www.fastcodesign.com/3050482/theres-no-such-thing-as-a-perfectly-designed-email-app-and-thats-ok
can anyone tell me : does Mailbird have the “Unread email” across accounts like win live mail had. i.e. showing all unread emails from all 3 of my email accounts without having to switch between them.
Thanks
Hey Tim, yes, there is š we have Unified Inbox, where you can access all of your emails from all accounts in one inbox and you can enable that you would like all unread messages at the top of the inbox š Let us know if you have any more questions about that. Happy Friday:-)
I am really enjoying W10 much better than W8!!
Ill give it a shot

Hey Midoo, please send us a mail to support(at)getmailbird.com. We will happily try to fix the issue for you asap.
I use Google apps and found mailbird to be one of the most resposive IMAP clients out there. Particularly when dealing with chunky inbox’s!
Thanks for your awesome support and feedback Jake. Let us know if you have any questions that you may need help with.
I like the new version of Windows. I must admit thought that for me, it was rather hard to get used to all of the changes in this new version.
I seriously needed this after my Mail app kept giving me errors
Thanks for your feedback and support Mohammed:-)
I AM EXCITED TO TRY THIS OUT JUST UPDATED TO WINDOWS 10 DONT LIKE THE MAIL PROGRAM SO I DOWNLOADED THIS TO TRY
Welcome to the family Erica:-) Let us know if you have any questions by simply sending a mail to support(at)getmailbird.com.
At first didn’t like it as so different but learing to like
Windows 10 is definitely a nightmare; know people who had to take their computer to a pro to have it taken down and they lost everything on their computers. I was lucky that I was able to uninstall it before it damaged my computer.
I love windows 10!
Been using Chrome to access my Gmail. Win 10 email client is a dud…
Should you ever get tired of it, give Mailbird a try:-) It is free and will soon launch the Import feature from other clients, that will make the move very easy:-) Happy weekend.
Love the layout and hoe the mail are organized .
Thanks Ling. Please do let us know at support(at)getmailbird.com should you ever come across any questions you may need help with.
I’ve used it and like it. Its’ simple.
Thanks for your awesome feedback and support:-)
I Use Thunderbird Mail.
Well, like I said to John above already: if you are getting tired of it, or just need a change (who doesn’t once in a while;-P..) feel free to give Mailbird a try. Its free and will soon release the Import feature, that will make the move from Thunderbird easier than ever:-)
I am loving my windows 10 laptop. working all the time on it. I love the layout and all its features.
I use Thunderbird for my e-mail.
Well, if you are getting tired of it, or just need a change (who doesn’t once in a while;-P..) feel free to give Mailbird a try. Its free and will soon release the Import feature, that will make the move from Thunderbird easier than ever:-)
the main thing I like about windows 10 is the ability to get to the start menu more easily compared to windows 8
Windows 10 is really not bad. Mailbird on the other hand is really excellent, compared to other M$ alternatives!!!
Thanks Wilbur and welcome to the Alpha-Tester family;-)
Will be trying Mailbird š
Welcome to the family Tom:-) Let us know at support(at)getmailbird.com if you have any questions.
It’s good to know Mailbird is available if/when I make the upgrade to 10! I’ve been holding out because I heard 10 is a nightmare, but I’m hoping they’ll get the bugs out and it will be decent š
Hey Alex, thanks for your comment. Good news for you, Mailbird works on Windows 7 & 8 too, so you don’t need to update to W10 to try Mailbird;-)
Seriously looking into Mailbird but first I need W10 to get some bugs fixed. I have to boot up in safe mode at least onc a week to get W10 to work or I get the Cortana windows error a lot of people seem to be getting.
Thanks for your feedback Jenni. Yes, we do have a lot of people saying that. Feel free to contact our support, if you think there is something that we can help you with;-) Have a great day.
Windows 10 email is difficult for me to use. Mailbird may be a great choice
Welcome to the family:-) Let us know if you have any questions.
I tried it on Win 8.1 first. It seems the same on Win 10 to me.
The app looks very much like the MSFT Mail app…
I don’t have Windows 10 unfortunately I haven’t been able to upgrade. I’ve used 10 before and love it, it’s so much easier. Wishing for the best. Great site you have very good information.
Tried the free upgrade from W8.1 to W10 but had endless issues with computer crashing and restarting. Finally did a fresh install and it’s crashing less but still restarts for no reason from time to time. So annoying.
Wow, can’t believe I never heard of Mailbird. I will definitely investigate further.
Welcome to the family. Let us know if you have any questions:-)
What about spam filters?
Currently you can not set the in Mailbird. You can set them in your webmail and it will be applied to your mails in Mailbird. Let us know at support (at) getmailbird.com if you have any more questions.
I decided to wait to upgrade because so many people had issues. and I’m still waiting lol.
It’s working out really good so far
I prefer Windows 8.1 & I have paid a guaranteed for life price of $19.95 for yahoo email for the past 4 years. I prefer paying it, not having ads to deal with & 24 hr tech support although I’ve only needed it twice. I am loyal to yahoo as I was one of their first original 10,000 email account holders back in 94/95 I think.
Hey Melinda, thanks fro your feedback and WOW one of the first 10.000! This is awesome:-) If you should ever consider managing your Yahoo mail in a desktop email client, you should give Mailbird a try. Our current Yahoo users are very happy with it š Happy Monday:-)
It is about time.
Loved my Windows 8, downloaded Windows 10 and I’m starting to fall in love again. I do have to admit that the Windows 10 is ALOT different than Windows 8 in my opinion, but there are so many new apps and gadgets that I’m getting used to it!
Mailbird is the best email client ever on my Windows 10.
It seems good. I’ll try it
Will be trying Mailbird
nice
I like windows 10 much better it’s easier to use.
Would love to win this
It seems Mailbird is a get app to use esp for windows 10 but I am always normally the one who is last to try anything new esp on my pc. I am wary of downloading new programs until i either forced to use them or i have to have them to make the computer actually run otherwise I wait and see how others feedback of a program will maybe influence me to try it sooner.
Thanks for sharing your feedback Melly. Please let us know if you need any help setting up Mailbird, once you have decided to try it. Also, if you have any questions before you would like to try Mailbird, please send us a message to support (at) getmailbird.com and we will help you asap. Happy Monday.
mailbird really improves the functionality of email for w10!
Thanks for your awesome support Allison:-) Let us know if you ever come across any issues or questions you may need help with. Happy Monday to you:-)
Will try
I like the interface of Window 10 much better than windows 8 and 8.1
So far I’m really digging the Windows 10 since I updated. Windows all the way!
Do not care much for windows 10 but since I am stuck with it I may give Mailbird a try
Welcome to the family Susan. What do you prefer using then? Are you a Linux or OSX user?
maybe i will use Mailbird if i win good luck everyone
Hahahaha, well good luck then:-)
Why does McAfee consider the site a ‘security risk’…?
For ‘malicious downloads’…?
Hey Luke, thanks for your feedback. As long as you got the Installer from our website (getmailbird.com) we can guarantee you it is a false positive and you can download it without any worries. Let us know if you have any further questions.
I love windows 10 and love the interrogation of mailbird
Mailbird
I use the native email app on windows 10 and I guess I am gonna give mailbird a try
Awesome:-) Let us know at support (at) getmailbird.com if you have any questions.
Just installing it.. lets see how it is. based on reviews, it looks interesting.
Welcome to the family. Let us know at support@getmailbird.com if you have any questions.
So I have to pay if I have more than 3 email accounts?
Hey Boyd, if you want to add more than 3 accounts to your Mailbird, then Mailbird PRO or Lifetime would be the best option for you.
Seems like a nice app
Will give it a try, thanks
Still use thunderbird but this might be worth checking out, especially if I could do it on that fine surface pc
Well, make sure you let us know if you have any questions:-)
I will š thanks and thanks for the chance
Works quite fine in surface.
I may give Mailbird a try it looks very interesting.
The stock layout is good, but the customization is fantastic. Everybody likes different things, and you’ll never please everyone with one
Thanks for your awesome feedback:-) Have a great week.
love it way better and easy to use
Looking forward to trying it out. Thank you!
Great features!Will look into it for sure!
Amazing, I love MailBird outlook is a goner for me
Updates with errors and having to continuously roll back, techs who don’t understand the issues after you’ve exhausted resources to resolve prior to.
Hey we are sorry to hear that. Just to be clear, are you referring to Mailbird or Windows10?
Windows 10
Yes, many user are facing this issue. Sorry we cant help with that:-( Have a great start into the week anyways.
Downloaded, haven’t installed yet…
Welcome to the family, let us know if you have any questions.:-)
I have it and I hate it!
Hey Rita, are you referring to Mailbird or Windows 10?
Windows 10
Much easier to use then W8 , love the features.
I’m still looking for a better way to manage my mail. Mailbird might be the answer. I still use Gmail for most things, but it can be frustrating. I also think it’s provided me with plenty of bad habits. I’d like to find a more focused way of dealing with email that allows me to stick to the keyboard, rather than breaking it up with mouse/touch movements.
Thanks fro your feedback and welcome to the family. Please let us know at support (at) getmailbird.com if you have any questions. Also, make sure you check out our keyboard shortcuts in the options menu;-)
It sounds good.I will give it a try.thank you
You should and if you like it, make sure you get it while our 50% off promotion is still running;-)
are all these happy testamonials fake,because my McFee says it is risky with malware
Hey Gregg, its a pity you would think that. Some of the Antivirus programs detect it as malware but we can ensure you it is a false positive and you can add Mailbird to your antivirus’ white list. Let us know at support@getmailbird.com if you have any further questions:-) Have a great day.
No it is not what I think,it is what the anti-virus says, I am Dave outside the pod door tring to convince HAL to let me in.Yeah we all know the letters that make up HAL is IBM ,each letter was made one letter backwards in the alphabet. Is this free? I like FREE, I will give you a LIKE later to show my gratitude.
I downloaded it but it crashes and windows cannot solve this problem.Could it be my vista is old 2007
After looking at all the reviews below, i would like to try Mailbird…. :)….
Please do and let us know if you have any questions:-) Happy Tuesday:-)
does this program accept IMAP server for email……right now Outlook is driving me crazy because it doesn’t on Windows 10 when upgrade from 8. I want my email on my desktop not with microsoft
Hey Linda, yes Mailbird does support IMAP:-) Let us know if you need any help setting Mailbird up on your desktop we are happy to help you:-)
I want to send the same personalised email to all of my clients (mailmerge style). Can Mailbird do this? Thanks
Hey Ralph, thanks for your message. Mailbird can’t do that…yet:-) Feel free to add it to our feature request forum, that helps us prioritise. https://mailbird.zendesk.com/forums/20792535-Feature-Requests
Happy Wednesday:-)
I also wish to do this .I have lots of customers which I wish to add into specific groups so that I can send one email to all .Is that the same as what you want ?
Would someone care to explain the email I got today from Mailbird CEO Andrea Loubier, who said …and I quote “We would like to use this opportunity to say how grateful we are for your patronage for this past 2 years. For your loyalty and dedication we offer you a one time chance to get Mailbird Pro Lifetime for only 50% off the normal price” When I checked this out IT IS ACTUALLY CHEAPER TO BUY DIRECT FROM THE MAILBIRD WEBSITE ………..and you dont have to have been a loyal and dedicated user at all. Leaves me with such a wonderful feeling of being valued !!
I’m not happy with the program. I live in two places alternately and whichever address the sender has used to contact me can’t be changed. Eg if I’m in Gibraltar and someone sends an email to my UK address then I can’t reply by just changing the ‘from’ address. To reply I have to go to webmail of the server it has come through… so to me this is just a backward step. I’m sure I can’t be the only one with this issue. Very frustrating. Unless anyone knows a ‘work around’?
can emails be saved into folders does anyone know please
Hey Debbie, thanks for your question. Are you referring to folders on your desktop or in your Mailbird? In Mailbird you can create folders that you just drag&drop email into for example. As for folders on your desktop, you can go into the message source and save them one by one as an .eml file on your desktop. I hope this helped?
Hi yes in mail, my aol keeps stopping and Opera I can’t get folders for emails that I want to save. Thanks
Hey Debbie, here are some tips on how to best organize your folders in Mailbird. https://mailbird.zendesk.com/entries/46010530-Organize-Folders-From-Within-Mailbird
I hope that helps:-)
does it select all and delete?
Hey Laura,
sure you can:-) Please press Ctrl+A. Let us know if you have trouble doing so:-)
I need to move emails from a Fatcow account into Gmail – can I do this by dragging and dropping through this free mail client?
Hey Michelle, thanks for your message. With Mailbird you can access all of your emails from any provider using our Unified Inbox feature. You can not move them to the different inbox, but at least access them, so this might be a very good alternative for you:-)
I don’t see Exchange support, so I’ll have to pass. All I want is a simple client to connect to my companies exchange server. There’s a ton out there for cell phones, but none for PC? I just don’t want to have to boot up the company laptop just to send an email. Sure I can do it with my phone, but if I’m already in front of my PC, I’d rather just do it here real quick rather than booting up the laptop when I need a real keyboard.
I normally collect email on my mac at home but also have a Surface Pro 4 running W10 that I use when I am out. I want its email on the SP4 to behave like an iPad’s. So download the mail when online for offline reading, never delete anything from the server because that’s the main Mac’s job, delete old mail so I only have a few weeks of email on my device to stop it eating up my disk space (so Outlook is out!) but leave it on the server if it is still there. My Mac is set to delete from the server after a week so all my devices have a chance to download new mail and it also uses Spamsieve to clean the mailboxes. Can Mailbird give me this iPad-style mail please?
Hey Tim, thanks for your message.
Let me break it up to be able to answer your question as detailed as possible.
Download the mail when online for offline reading? Yes mailbird can do that
Never delete anything from the server because that’s the main Mac’s job? Yes if you use IMAP and do not delete the email from Mailbird.
Deleting email from Mailbird will also delete the email from the server.
Mailbird can’t delete emails automatically, but it can delete emails that is not in the server anymore if you are using IMAP. I hope that helped you answer your question.
If I switch to Mailbird, will the program be upgraded BEFORE Windows upgrades to the next version? I want to be sure Mailbird has sufficient development to ensure it will always work.
Hey Dean, thanks for your comment. We are working very hard every day to ensure that Mailbird is compatible with any update coming from Windows. You can contact our support team at any time at support@getmailbird.com should you ever experience any issues with Mailbird:-) Have a great day and thanks for your awesome support:-)
I have looked through a great many of these comments and questions and have yet to see my biggest complaint to windows 10 mail: can you work with an address book, adding to and deleting contacts? This issue alone makes MS Mail an absolute waste for me.
Hey Jon, thanks for getting in touch. We are soon releasing our new Contacts Manager with Contacts Sync. You will then be able to edit and work on your contact details as you wish:-) Ideally we will be launching the new Contacts Manager into the Alpha this week:-) So its not long to go anymore…Let us know if you have anymore questions.
I downloaded and installed “Mailbird”, and it might just as well be “Jailbird”, as it appears to be totally non-intuitive and obtuse.. You say I require a SEPARATE APP to simply manage email addresses??? That is one of the dumbest things I have ever heard. Managing addresses is a fundamental requirement of ANY email client.
I am not sure why, but you may have understood. There is no separate app required. The next big update will release a fantastic contacts manager feature to Mailbird.
So where is documentation that tells how to use the current one I see a box that says “Contacts”, which got three “contacts” from somewhere, that are indeed people I know. Unfortunately, I see nothing further about those contacts, no way to edit them, and the software will not even let me delete them.
I think this post may be very helpful for you. https://support.getmailbird.com/hc/en-us/articles/220107767-Using-Contacts-Manager
It will soon be updated with our new Contacts Manger which will make managing your contacts super easy:-)
WILL THIS SEARCH MY ALL FIVE ACCOUNTS AND GIVE ME THE RESULT THAT WHERE A PERTICULAR EMAIL IS LYING AND CAN OPEN IT. I HAVE ALL IMPORTANT DATA TO BE REFERED FROM 2012 TILL NOW, AND WINDOWS LIVE WAS FANTASTIC, BUT I AM NOT FINDING ANY GOOD ALTERNATIVE NOW. CAN THIS HELP ME
Hey thanks for reaching out. At the moment we won’t be able to help you with this either. We do have “Advance Search” on our Roadmap, please feel free to up-vote the feature in our forum to get it higher up on the list: https://support.getmailbird.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/211483907–Advanced-Search
Have a great week and let us know if you do decide to give Mailbird a try anyways and have questions about it.
I am planning to download Mailbird to my desktop PC running Windows 10 (to replace the Windows 10 mail app) ā will it cope with my Hotmail, Live, Outlook, Gmail and Plusnet addresses ?
Also, will my emails be stored on my PC and on the net ?

They will help you solve any issue asap:-) Have a great week and wonderful festive days ahead:-)
I am about to upgrade from Vista which has Windows Mail 2006 to Windows 10 with a new computer. Will mailbird allow me to import my Windows Mail emails to local folders and use them (ie forward, reply, etc) in the future?
Hey, thanks for reaching out and Happy New Year to you:-)!!! Yes, you can import your emails to Mailbird using our Import feature. Should you have any trouble importing them, send us an email to support (@) getmailbird (dot) com and our support team will help you answer any question asap. Have a great week:-)

Thanks for reaching out. Yes, you can organize contacts into groups. And good news, our Contacts Manager with sync will be released soon too. Have a great week:-)
Can I block spam and junk mail?
Exchange support?
On the roadmap and planned to be implemented as one of the next features:-)
Will mailbird import from yahoomail? Will it delete from both yahoo and mailbird or do I have to go to yahoo to delete messages I have read?
Hey Dale, you will see the same emails in Mailbird, that you have in yahoo mail. Mailbird will sync with your yahoo so all the emails will be “imported”. When deleting a message in Mailbird it will be deleted in your yahoo account and the other way around:-)
I had Windows Live Mail on my last laptop with the os of Windows 8. I just got a new laptop with Windows 10 and it seems that I must choose a new email client. Would you recommend Mailbird? I have read some of the questions and comments and am liking what I see so far. Organize contacts onto groups, I imagine I can also upload all 2,500 contacts and multiple folders with ease. The last thing I am looking for is to use my same email that goes through the server from my website: info@downhillmike.com
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Hi there!
Please go ahead and try Mailbird š It looks like it’s a great fit for your needs.
Let us know if you need any assistance: support@getmailbird.com
Is it password enabled?
Hey Freddie, no its not yet. Let me know of you have any other questions:-)
I am lookinig to replace may Outlook 2016 as it is a nightmare. What I need is something that will sync my Mail, calendar and contacts with my android. Is mailbird the solution? Using IMAP.
Hey thanks for reaching out. Currently you can sync all these with your mobile. The contacts sync will come soon (within the next weeks). We don’t have a date for calendar sync yet though. Let us know if you want to give it a try anyways and we will happily extend the free trial to 1 week for you:-)
Is there anyway to send an urgent message or get a read confirmation receipt?
Hey Denise, Thanks for reaching out. There isn’t at this point. But please feel free to submit a feature request for it. https://support.getmailbird.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
Have a great day and please feel to reach out in case you have more questions.
Does mailbird allow the creation of group emails with more than 10 contacts? Also, can you easily create new contacts from emails? Windows 10 mail app won’t do either. Also,how many email accounts can it support? I need 4.
Hey, thanks for reaching out. Yes, you will be once we launched our new Contact Manger…which will be TODAY yeeeeyyy:-) You will just need to update your Mailbird and start using the Contacts App:-)
We are now using Mailbird on a Win 10 laptop and I find it to be a very easy and intuitive program to set up and operate, yet it is very full featured allowing us to easily send group emails to our employees and manage our 4 pop mail accounts, no problem. Loving it! The price was quite reasonable too!
This is great thanks so much for your feedback we really appreciate it. Please let us know should you have any questions. Have a great start to the new week.:-)
I have more than 25GB of mails in my Windows live mail. Recently I have upgraded to W10. Is it possible to import all these mails to Mailbird ?
Hey Satyaki, thanks for reaching out:-) There is no restriction in terms of that. Are you using IMAP or POP3? If you are using POP3 we would suggest you to do a back up before importing them considering the amount. Mailbird wont delete any emails, but with 25MB we would suggest you to do it in any case:-) Please get in touch with our support@getmailbird.com and we will help you get Mailbird set up:-)

I’m looking for an e mail program that can download then delete the E mail from my email server so my server box doesn’t fill up. Outlook express used to do that, but when I switch to Windows 10 their e mail program doesn’t have that option, does Mailbird?

Hello, Does this have option to sync with google contacts? Also does it sync all folder structures (I mean groups) with Gmail contacts? In Thunderbird, though there is a feature, it seems broken. Groups are not properly synchronized.

Please let us know should you have any more questions:-)

Hi. I was a previous mailbird customer and loved the system but it would almost daily somehow lock my yahoo mail account. Have no idea why it would do this. After several emails to the system folks and no resolution had to drop mailbird. Since then the account has yet to be locked out. May try it again just to see if anything has changed.
Hey Larry, I am really sorry to hear we couldn’t help you then. As far as I know the issue should be resolved. But please feel free to share your ticket number with us, so I can double check that you would not face the previous issue anymore.
Mailbird crashed after an update. It told me that I need to uninstall it and reinstall it. I uninstalled it, now it won’t reinstall. Mailbird really should have support line that we can call to fix stuff like this. I am wondering if I have lost all of the emails in the process.
Hey Mark, thanks so much for reaching out. The issue is fixed and you should not have lost any emails. Either way please feel free to get in touch with our support team (support(at)getmailbird.com). They will help you get Mailbird back up and running asap. Thanks again for reaching out and have a wonderful day.

Hey there,
I am looking for an app to replace outlook. I have work emails and personal emails coming through outlook at the moment and I cant seem to find emails older than 1 week old on my work account. I have looked into this and it seems this is a very common problem with Outlook. If I downloaded Mailbird, would I be able to get all my old emails as well?
thanks
Kelly

I am replacing my Vista computer that was using windows mail with new one running windows 10. Can I import my email folders and contacts into Mailbird?
Hey George, thanks for reaching out. Please get in touch with our support team (support(at)getmailbird(dot)com). They will help you make the move as smooth as possible:-)
Very nice article and the information provided
“Free Download”, but keep in mind, if you want to use it, you’ll have to buy it. You get only one account for free use and who uses only one email account? The honest thing would be to let people know this beforehand.
Mailbird is actually a good mail app. But if you want to use multiple mail account so you have to pay for more than one account.
in am using the Mailbird in my windows 10 for the mailing, previously I used Gmail, comparing to Gmail I got the Mailbird is advanced but there are 1 issue is the I don.st get the proper layout, I harder to use in the 1st time after a few days I can use Mailbird easily.
Mailbird features are really better than Windows 10 email. Mailbird secures data privacy. It’s a much-needed tool with Windows 10.
Mailbird is pretty cool. It can be a really good alternative to Microsoft Outlook. I am really loving it.
After updating my system to windows 10 I am facing some issues in my email. After installing this I got my proper solution.
Hi there, thank you for the update, and glad to know that the issue already resolved. If you need assistance, do not hesitate to contact us at support@getmailbird.com.
When do you plan to offer a version for android so we can use it on our phones?
Hi Wallace, I’m afraid I don’t have the ETA for the Android version. Iād be grateful if you could upvote this feature so we can consider it to be implemented sooner. You can do it here:

Have a nice day and stay safe.
