"Fantastic Email Client"

Overall: I never liked using a Desktop email platform until I found MailSpring. MailSpring is a joy to use, and now I cannot imagine myself not using it in my daily life.

Pros: It’s very easy to set up MailSpring with my many email accounts, including Gmail. The UI/UX of MailSpring is fantastic. I like that I have the option to track when a person opens an email I send.

Cons: There’s occasional syncing issues where emails I try to trash reappear in my inbox as unread emails. It’s annoying when that happens.

"Mailspring: Best for daily-mail"

Pros: Mailspring has a lot of amazing features, it allows tracking sent emails and get notified when the recipient opens the mail and whether he clicked a link you shared in the email. In addition, it allows users to schedule an email to be sent at a given time specified by the user. It has many interfaces to fit the user's preference. One thing else to add, it gives the users a chance to cancel the sending of an email by setting a timer in case he forgot something. A very good notification if the email a user is sending lacks an attachment meanwhile the word attached was mentioned, same applies for the name of people after Dear.

Cons: One of the worst things is their customer service, they never reply! I had a problem before that in my outgoing folder, I have too many copies of every email I send, which is equal to the number of added people in the carbon copy. It also lags sometimes and takes so long to open.

"Non-existent customer service"

Overall: Good software. Stay on the free plan.

Pros: Nice design and functionality. Cross-platform (linux) is nice.

Cons: Customer service is the worst. They do not respond to repeated requests regarding dual charges on our CC. We reached out to them repeatedly and zero response. It's unfortunate.

Reasons for Choosing Mailspring: Clean UI, needed features.
Reasons for Switching to Mailspring: Missing features.
