Hey,

I am currently using "The Bat - Voyager" as my Mailing Software but I'm not satisfied anymore. I also tried Thunderbird but I wasn't able to set a "Master Password" to protect my Inbox.

Which one works for you? Any suggestions?

Cheers!
 


I'm not looking for an auto responder. Just simple as it sounds - An Email Client "that works" to manage my accounts.

I chose TheBat because its stores your emails encrypted. But the last few weeks were kinda buggy so I'm looking for something new.
 
I've used Outlook for forever and it works but can be a complicated asshole at times.

Looking at Postbox, I'm tempted to try it for the free trial period. Especially if they had an Android app for it (edit: they don't)

I know many people love Thunderbird but I fucking hated it both times I tried it. It's about as non-intuitive as an email client can get IMO. To each his own, though.

I used to user Thunderbird but Postbox is the shit. It's based on Thunderbird so a lot of the same stuff works. You can even transfer over your Thunderbird profile folder and all your stuff is in Postbox.

It's like Thunderbird with a UI that is actually usable. More stable and some pretty badass features.

I'm an email maniac. I still have emails dating back to 1999. Sadly it's like my filing cabinet / recipe box and Postbox makes searching, organizing, tagging, etc... so easy. For once in my life I'm not spending the first hour of every day organizing email.
 
Does Postbox encrypt your mails or store it in plain text?

Are you able to set a masterpassword which is needed to open the software?

I don't believe it encrypts the email. Yes it has a master password feature. When you enable master password it does encrypt your email passwords.
 
I just googled it and I have to say that it's not encrypting mail data...

Here is the original statement:


To streamline checking for new messages, Postbox will store your account passwords in a hidden file so it won't have to ask every time. You can use a Master Password to encrypt this password database to enhance security, and to prevent the downloading of new messages to your computer. You will be required to enter the Master Password each time Postbox launches, but it will be remembered for the remainder of the session.
Note: The Master Password does not prevent access to email messages, attachments, contacts or other information.
