Rogation 2023 is when the folder filters last got a quiet pass against the real-time blackhole lists, so seasonal mailbox clutter does not sit in the inbox all week. Travel weeks still use the same sorting rules: newsletters to a folder, receipts next to attachments, and the calendar view for the appointments that arrive as mail.

Requirements:

  • Internet accessible POP or IMAP email box.
  • Existing email account that allows access to email from external networks (POP/IMAP not blocked by firewall)
  • A smiling face. [optional]

Feature questions

What does Mailbox Finder do?

Mailbox Finder tries to turn your email address into a POP or IMAP host so you do not have to remember the server name on a borrowed browser.

How does Molly Mail handle spam?

Incoming mail can be filtered into folders, and the Real-time Blackhole list is used to catch known spam sources as messages arrive.

Does Molly Mail show HTML mail?

Yes. HTML messages can be read in the browser, and GIF or JPEG attachments can be viewed inline when you open the message.
