The web version of Gmail now sprinkles advertisements around your inbox, not just at the very top. Mimestream has one big, new feature that’s unintentional. As before, the company has none of your data on its servers, and your access tokens and cache are stored on a local Mac keychain. Mimestream uses Gmail's API, rather than a standard IMAP connection, to integrate more deeply with your setup on Google's web app. Google contact colors are also synced over, and it's easier to label and star a message while inside a message window. You can create email filters and vacation responders that sync to your web-based accounts. The app's server-side Gmail powers have increased with this release, too. Even if you're not deep into Mac management, you can set basic on/off schedules for notifications inside the app for each profile. The new profiles work with a Mac's Focus Filters so that only certain accounts inside a profile can send notifications when you're in focus mode. I can also keep work email from creating notifications after hours. Individual users can install it on up to five devices, and there's Family Sharing across iCloud accounts. There's still a 14-day, no-credit-card-required trial period. Mimestream is $30 per year if you buy during this launch period, then $50 per year after that (if you were a beta user, check your inbox for a bigger discount code). Now that a 1.0 release is out-and the company has grown from a solo developer to a five-person team-there's a price for the product. Mimestream spent more than three years in a free beta period, releasing more than 220 updates for 167,000 users and adding more than 100 features. ![]() You didn't need to customize it, change its settings, or bolt on a bunch of extensions to make it work and feel right Mimestream was both deeply hooked into Gmail and very much a Mac app. He's been gaming since the Atari 2600 days and still struggles to comprehend the fact he can play console quality titles on his pocket computer.When I searched for the best Mac email clients for Gmail/Google Apps users in September, I was surprised to find that there was an app built specifically for this purpose.
