Kanmail is a desktop email client that presents your inbox as a kanban board, with emails as draggable cards and folders/labels as columns. It is a native Go app using the system webview, supporting Gmail, Outlook, iCloud, and any IMAP account, and is source-available but requires a paid license for continued use.

Use cases

  • manage my inbox as a kanban board
  • unify multiple email accounts in one app
  • organize emails by dragging them between folders
  • keyboard-driven email triage
  • search across all my email accounts at once
  • replace Apple Mail or Spark with a board-based client

When to choose

  • you want a visual kanban workflow for email across Gmail, Outlook, or IMAP accounts
  • you prefer a lightweight native app (~40MB, no Electron) with strong keyboard shortcuts
  • you value local-first privacy with credentials in the OS keychain

When to avoid

  • you need fully free open-source software - continued use requires a $49 license
  • you only need a web-based or mobile email client
  • you want to self-host or modify the app freely under an OSI license
