You’ve got mail! Now here’s how to manage it better



You’ve got mail! Now here’s how to manage it better

For most communication, instant messenger apps have become the default mode of communication. However, in the traditional workspace, email remains as critical as ever. At times managing email could take more of your productivity time than you may ever have imagined. This is where smart email apps, designed to reduce the clutter, come in handy. 

NEWTON MAIL 

$49.99 per year (around Rs3,410) Android, Android Wear, iOS, Apple Watch, Mac OS X Earlier known as Cloudmagic, Newton Mail is a subscription based service that works with all Gmail, Exchange, Yahoo!, Outlook and Office 365, iCloud as well as IMAP accounts. Since the rebranding, even basic features like notifications for new mails are offered only to paid subscribers. Apart from that, this remains a robust email app. It has added the OAuth 2.0 to enhance mail account security. It integrates cloud storage services such as Google Drive, Dropbox and iCloud storage. 

NOTION INTELLIGENT EMAIL 

Free Android, iOS, Amazon Alexa This truly is a one-of-its kind email app. The problem is, a lot of us get many emails every day that are not relevant but clutter the inbox so much that we tend to miss the important mails. The Notion Intelligent Email app for smartphones learns constantly from user behaviour and ensures that important mails are not lost in the clutter. This app does not need to replace the email app you may be using, but you can choose to turn off notifications in the older app, and let Notion send notifications for mails that may be important. You can also snooze mails and deal with them later. Notion.ai has added support for Amazon’s Alexa virtual assistant as well, and you can ask Alexa to inform you about the new mails. 

AIRMAIL 

Rs300 iOS, Mac OS X This email app is what you need if you want to set custom actions (archive, snooze mail, etc.) and this reminds us of the now discontinued Mailbox app of Dropbox. Airmail also has integration with third-party apps, such as Apple’s Calendar and Reminder app, Todoist, Evernote, Dropbox, Google Drive and iA Writer, among others—this makes it easier to manage reminders, lists, share tasks, access cloud storage, save and edit documents. It supports Gmail and Exchange accounts, and integrates with iCloud for syncing with a Mac computing device. 

ALTO MAIL 

Free iOS, Android, Web The app, available for both iOS and Android devices, supports multiple email services, including Gmail and Outlook, as well as Yahoo!, AOL and iCloud. You can create mail stacks, essentially bunching up certain types of email.
