Kanmail turns your inbox into a kanban board. Drag emails between columns like To Do and Waiting, then clear them a column at a time. Works with any GMail/Outlook/IMAP account. Your mail never touches our servers. One-time purchase, no subscription.
Like most people, my inbox is secretly my to-do list. The problem is every email client shows it as one long pile sorted by date, so Tuesday's important thing gets buried under Thursday's newsletters.
So I built Kanmail: an email client that works like a kanban board. Your email becomes columns: To Do, Waiting, whatever matches how you work. Move everything around with the keyboard and inbox zero is actually possible.
What makes it different:
📥 Works with any IMAP account (Gmail, Fastmail, iCloud…), multiple accounts on one board 🔒 Private by design - mail syncs directly between your device and provider. Tracking pixels blocked, remote images hidden by default ⌨️ Keyboard shortcuts for everything, all customizable 💰 One-time license, no subscription. Free to download and try
I've been building Kanmail over 10 years and it has been my email client nearly as long.

Kanmail was hunted by Nick Barrett. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it.
