bkaankose / wino-mail Goto Github PK

I tried sending a mail, but it just disappeared from the Drafts folder. When switching to another folder and then back to Drafts, the mail draft returns.

All strings in Wino should be localized for multiple languages. Right it only has English as default language, and there is no localization support under the hood.

Wino must support as much as languages possible for better experience. There should be also contribution guide for those who want to provide translation files.

It would be nice if the search box had some placeholder text, like "Search all your mail...". A search box without placeholder text feels weird to me.

Window height is too low, select box for junk is not clickable.

I had one draft in my Drafts folder, which the InfoBadge displayed properly.
After deleting the draft, the InfoBadge didn't disappear, even though there were no more drafts left.
After a restart of Wino, the InfoBadge disappeared.

Wino 1.6.6
Mail account type: Custom IMAP
Windows Build 25982.1000 AMD64

I think they should be displayed under the sender and the object

A personalization option in the "Application Theme" dropdown menu to use your own background picture would be nice.
Like you can do in the official "Mail and Calendar" app by Microsoft.
Thank You!

Is this app open source? I'm interested in trying this app out but I feel reluctant about downloading something that could potentially track my credentials. Can I build this app from source?

First of all, I would like to say that Wino Mail is a really good alternative to the Windows Mail app and you do an extremely good job. Furthermore, I have a few suggestions for improvement regarding the user interface.

1. the rightmost menu section on my screen, when extended, is almost a quarter of the screen wide, leaving a lot of empty space (see image 1).

2. when the menu section is retracted, a Google logo is displayed in the remaining column. However, due to the central orientation and the height of the dropdown box, very far down (see image 2). I would prefer the Google logo to be directly below the + icon. Maybe by moving the logo to the top or by making the dropdown menu a smaller button.

3. in the email overview section, emails whose accounts don't have names are displayed without logo or sender name (see image 3). My solution would be to display the email address in such a case and at least a placeholder logo, e.g. a colored circle with the first letter of the email address (like in Gmail).

4. when the actual email is displayed, the content is displayed in a serif font. I would change this to a sans-serif font.

5. for the more distant future (when Wino Mail is more famous), translation into other languages would be desirable. This could be done relatively easily through the community with e.g. Crowdin.

The app seems to lack e-mails grouped by threads. When I have notifications on for a GitHub repository for example and there are lot of comments there, I get all the notifications separated, which is very annoying

Wino

Mail for Windows

I successfully added an account with my iCloud credentials, but nothing is syncing (windows stock mail app is syncing normally).

Hello i wanted to install wino mail but it said the certificate is expired

After Oauth google breaks the authorization saying app accessing sensitive Infos

Hey,
I know the app is still in development and is already better than some Microsoft Apps, keep up the work! But still I wanted to request the feature to support custom mail servers or e.g GMX or other mail providers.
Would be very nice, so I can use the app with all my accounts ♥️

Since I couldn't find any other issue regarding this topic, I opened this issue now.

Forwarding emails with attachments doesn't appear to have the option to send the attachments on the original email, without downloading and reinserting them into the forward.

Right now unknown sender names causing invisible avatar and empty sender name for mail display control. Ideally sender address should be displayed as a name and avatar should not be invisible for this scenario.

Is there a way to change the fetch period of the email? right now it seems like it is only fetching 3 months of emails! if not I hope it can be added on a future update.

Default OpenPaneLength is too big for most users. There should be pre-defined settings to adjust this menu width.

First of all, thank you for your work! Definitely love the email app, especially under this time when Microsoft themselves are giving up on the UWP email app.

I would like to ask if it's possible that when we are running with only one account, the folders are shown on the minimized side bar, so we can click them even when the side bar is minimized?

I'm working on my 13-inch laptop mostly, which has a very limited screen space. It would be a nice adjust to give more space to the email contents without sacrificing any functionalities. Here's a demo how it may look like with a Gmail account:

Thank you again!

can you add turkish language in app

Any chance folder list could become more compact too with using that option for messages list? There is kinda lot of whitespace between them currently.

This happens only if the menu is opened with touch. It is displayed properly if opened with touchpad/mouse/pen

First let me say the app is looking great & I hope you can work out your problem with google!

I apologize that this isn't the correct place to ask, but I am trying to figure out why no Email client will scan your inbox for tracking numbers & populate some kind of package tracking & purchases window.

There are package tracking desktop apps, but no way to auto-populate them. There was a site that let you filter & forward emails from retailers, but that is a terrible privacy concern. It seems that an Email client is the only tool that can do this job, but none do.

I wish you success! Wino mail looks nice on my desktop.

If you'll allow another suggestion, a filter to search out all the unsubscribe links from the email's in your inbox. Once every few months I houseclean & it would be awesome to see all the links in one place.

Looking for any guidance on this issue. Thank you

The "dismiss" button seems duplicate to the cross button on the top right corner of the notification, so I suggest changing it to "archive".

that link leads me to

Hey devs I just installed the Microsoft version of Wino Mail but the gmail is not working can any dev help?

Maybe it's already planned and just not implemented yet, but I'd love to be able to just drag and drop my e-mails (for example into the deleted items section or into a folder for organisation purposes).
Relying on buttons is too inconvenient.

Amazing app by the way, looking forward to future updates!

I think there's no point of showing all the current options, just display a combobox, from which they can be changed, since it's not something thought to be done a lot of times. I find the current ux a bit confusing

Example: Focused Inbox or Accent Color -setting does not remain saved after starting the program again.

I think also the e-mails should be rendered by default according to the system theme

As you can see, the active tab titles have inverted colors and are almost impossible to read:

I expect the app to cache old e-mails.
This is helpful to have the e-mails list loaded at startup and to be able to use the app offline to check older e-mails

All options except Personalization and About are grayed out?
Is that because of early build?
Can you please make adjustable sidebar with mail? Left side with mails is very narrow.
App looks good!

The title bar buttons are white on the light theme and are hard to see when the window is in focus. They turn darker when the window is out of focus. I tried switching themes back and forth but couldn't get it fixed. Am running windows 11 22H2 build 22623.1325 beta channel

I haven't tested the app yet but this is a suggestion, it looks inconsistent this way from my point of view, you should remove one of the following:

• The line indicator at the bottom
• The background

It's somewhat inconvenient to select every mail manually when you look through latest emails and archive/delete stuff of low importance. Why not auto-open them like Windows Mail does? Besides, Wino already move focus to them. Just doesn't open.

So, when active mail is archived, deleted, moved or disappeared from the list for any other reason move focus to the one directly below it and open it. When next element is a thread — select the entire thread and auto-open top email in it.

BTW, in Windows Mail I could select threads which displayed top email in them (without expanding them) and I could perform actions on the entire thread like archive or delete all mails in it. Here I can only select a thread, but it expands automatically and I have to manually select emails in it. And I can't archive or delete the entire thread as I understand. Changing threads behavior to how Windows Mail works should make navigation with keyboard more comfortable too since selecting a thread will actually display something useful from it rather than nothing and won't bloat the list unless user specifically click on expand button or use some key to expand the thread (space or right, perhaps?).

This prevents above all to copy security codes sent by e-mail

In the legacy Windows Mail app, mails that are not Focused don't trigger push notifications, which makes sense since most of the time they are suggestions/subscriptions/etc. Perhaps someone could see them useful, though, so an option would be ideal

I'd really like to have an option to disable the "Focused" and "Other" tabs for the Inbox like the Mail app has. I've always found it hard to keep track of emails when they get split like that.

This is the setting in the Mail app:

And the same setting in the new outlook app:

Behavior (from the outside perspective at least) would then be fairly straight forward:

• When the user opens Settings

  • The sub-setting "Focused Inbox" would be present in the given list of sub-settings

• When the user opens the "Focused Inbox" sub-setting

  • An option to enable and disable the focused inbox is visible

• When the user selects the option to sort emails into "Focused" and "Other"

  • The two tabs "Focused" and "Other" are visible at the top of the Inbox
  • Selecting either tab switches between the two views of the Inbox
  • Emails in the Inbox are displayed only in their corresponding tab

• When the user selects the option to not sort emails into "Focused" and "Other"

  • No tabs are displayed at the top of the Inbox
  • The text "Inbox" is displayed at the top of the Inbox
  • All emails in the Inbox are displayed together in a single list

Using Gmail I cannot see the time of reception of an e-mail which is quite important. I think its design in Mail for Windows could be copied

having http or socks5 proxy support on the app itself will help many users to use your mail client in sanctioned countries.

examples:
Spotify, telegram, thunderbird etc.

all of the apps mentioned above have some sort of proxy support baked in.

great app btw.

Since those actions can already be performed in the context menu, I think it would be better to hide them and place the search bar there saving space. Alternatively they could be put in the more options button. I feel like the upper part of the app is a waste of space

I'm rarely lifting my hands of my keyboard if I don't have to, but as far as I could tell there's no way to delete Mails via the keyboard. Therefor I would like to ask if it would be possible to make the "DEL" key on the keyboard delete the currently selected mail. This has been something I'm used to have in pretty much every mail app I ever used and I think it would by quite nice to have it

Hello, your client seems impressive, but I'm currently missing support for On-premise Exchange accounts.
While many mail clients lack this feature, the Mail and Calendar app used to support it. Unfortunately, they have discontinued their support, and the new Outlook is quite slow.
It would be fantastic if you could consider adding this capability.

Hello,
Your Wino-Mail application looks to be very promising as well as interesting, my problem is the fact that at least so far I've yet to find any setup instructions. As I'm an older man, it's quite possible that I somehow might have missed seeing them that's why I'm posting this. Thanks in advance for any and all advice I might possibly receive as to get my three active email account's setup properly so I can actually start using this application.

Update: I did in fact discover how to add my email accounts, but I feel like this mail application still needs a bit more polishing so to speak so at least for now I'm uninstalling the app and may try it again in the near future.
