Your new newsletter workspace.

Letterboxx is a dedicated home for newsletters on Mac with smart filters, better reading tools, and Auto-Delivery to sort and route new issues automatically.

Reader Tools

Capture what matters inside every issue.

Highlight passages, navigate highlights, adjust zoom, print cleanly, and take action on unsubscribe links directly from the reader.

  • Five highlight colors with remove-single and remove-all controls
  • Built-in unsubscribe link detection and confirmation flow
  • Zoom in, zoom out, actual size, and print from native menu commands

Triage Flow

Turn newsletters into a calm reading queue.

Mark read/unread, favorite, move to trash, restore, and set reminders so long-form newsletters return exactly when you want them.

  • One-hour, evening, tomorrow, next-week, or custom reminder options
  • Reminder notifications with quick reschedule or clear actions
  • Safe trash workflow with restore and explicit empty trash command

Auto-Delivery

Route every newsletter automatically.

Set active rules that file new arrivals directly into the right Letterboxx.

  • Match on sender, recipients, subject, content, and more
  • Use all/any condition logic and ordered rule priority
  • Run rules on selected messages or your whole inbox on demand

Smart Filters

Find and seek.

Browse by Inbox, Unread, Today, Yesterday, This Week, Last Week, All, Favorites, Highlighted, Reminders, Trash, or custom Letterboxxes.

  • Instant sidebar search for sender and subject
  • Dedicated newsletter-focused navigation, not generic mail clutter

Accounts + Sync

Connect the way your mailbox works.

Use Gmail OAuth or standard IMAP credentials with provider presets and connection tests before saving.

  • Provider presets: Gmail, iCloud, Outlook, DreamHost, Custom IMAP
  • Per-account setup, test connection, and initial sync status

Native Mac

Keyboard-first and command-driven.

Use fast commands for new downloads, Auto-Delivery runs, highlighting, print, zoom, and app-wide windows like Activity Log and Statistics.

  • Purpose-built menu commands and shortcuts throughout
  • Works like a Mac app because it IS a Mac app, not a web shell in disguise

Personalization

Shape the experience to your reading style.

Choose visual and sound themes, list density and typography controls, sender badge behavior, and dock badge count source.

  • Customizable sounds for arrival, routing, favorite, trash, restore, read/unread

Letterboxxes

Letterboxxes are your custom newsletter folders inside Letterboxx. Create focused spaces for each topic, then file newsletters manually or route them automatically with Auto-Delivery.
