Psst… it’s interactive. J K to move, E to archive, and the pills up top switch layout and theme.
Reads mail fromGmailiCloudFastmailany IMAP server
Immersive puts the list and reader side by side. Correspondents (Pro) ranks the people waiting on you, longest first, and groups the broadcasts at the bottom.
Accounts sync in parallel, so one slow server never holds up the rest.
Mail lives in SQLite on your disk and passwords in the Keychain. Remote images are blocked and tracking pixels stripped.
J and K to move, E to archive, H to snooze, and ⌘K for the command palette.
Put a thread away until Monday at 09:00 and it returns by itself. Keep a short list of to-dos next to your mail.
Daylight is free. Dusk and Night are dark, Overcast is a cool light, and all three are Pro.
Gmail, iCloud, Fastmail or your own server. If it speaks IMAP and SMTP, Orlo reads it.
No summaries, no model reading your mail, no writing replies for you. The ranking is worked out from who wrote last and when.
Choose the shape of the window and the light it sits in. They are separate settings, and switching never moves your mail.
Try them aboveA floating rail, the message list and the reader side by side, with the actions in a pill over the message.
Everyone who wrote, ranked by who has waited longest. Pick a person and work through their backlog, oldest first.

People as the spine of the window. Clear forty newsletters from one sender in a keystroke.
Three more themes, two dark and one cool light, each one checked for contrast.
Rebind the keys to match the way you already work.
Flag the people who matter and filter the inbox down to them.
Insert reusable phrases into a reply with Control and a number.
A faster answer when something goes wrong, and it pays for the next release.
