WMail is a free, open-source Electron-based desktop client for Gmail and Google Inbox, supporting multiple accounts, desktop notifications, unread badges, and tray access. The project has been archived and succeeded by Wavebox.
Use cases
- use gmail without opening a browser
- manage multiple gmail accounts on desktop
- get desktop notifications for new email
- show unread email count in dock or taskbar
- access gmail from the system tray
- spellcheck email in my native language
When to avoid
- you need a maintained client - the project is archived since 2020 and its successor is the commercial Wavebox app
- you use email providers other than Gmail or Google Inbox
- Google Inbox has been discontinued, so that integration no longer works
