Pros I thought the download was just a generic email manager, but when I started to configure it, I realized that I'm not a technician and don't usually work with these kinds of things. I just have too many emails to manage. To my surprise, after 15 minutes of following the site's instructions, everything was done. All my emails were separated into folders with auto filters. I didn't encounter any difficulties, so I gladly paid for it and supported the developers. Cons "Don't have AI support. The interface is a little confusing in the beginning, but it is customizable."
