Your Email Accounts – Unified. Add your Gmail, Outlook, iCloud, Yahoo, Fastmail, GMX, Zoho, Proton (via Bridge) or any other IMAP account for free. View all your mail in a unified inbox or one account at a time, in a modern and customizable layout. InkMail is private by design: your mail will stay on your machine. The client talks straight to your provider and keeps a copy of your messages in a local, searchable and 100% offline database. There is not, and never will be a server between your machine and your mail provider. No ads, no telemetry, no sign-up... the only request that ever reaches us is the licence check, if you buy Pro (thanks!) Block of tracking pixels and external images until you choose to allow them. Messages open in a sandbox so email scripts are never executed. Your passwords are encrypted and stored in your local client keyring, safe and isolated from other programs. Read and send encrypted mail with OpenPGP encryption: in this way even your free mail provider will stay out of your business. Smart offline search, conversation view, snooze and one-click unsubscribe. InkMail is free to use with unlimited accounts. PRO is an optional one-time purchase on inkmail.app that add filters, calendar, themes and much more.

They update automatically and roll back gracefully. Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions. ### Enable snapd On Arch Linux, snap can be installed from the [Arch User Repository (AUR).](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/snapd/) The [manual build process](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Installing_packages) is the Arch-supported install method for AUR packages, and you’ll need the [prerequisites](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Prerequisites) installed before you can install any AUR package. You can then install snap with the following: ``` git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/snapd.git cd snapd makepkg -si ``` Once installed, the *systemd* unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled: ``` sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket ``` If [AppArmor](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/AppArmor) is enabled in your system, enable the service which loads AppArmor profiles for snaps: ``` sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor.service ``` To enable *classic* snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between `/var/lib/snapd/snap` and `/snap`: ``` sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap ``` Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly. ### Install InkMail To install InkMail, simply use the following command: ``` sudo snap install inkmail ``` ### Other popular snaps… [See more...](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) [See more in Featured](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) ### More things to do… #### [Get the snap store](https://snapcraft.io/snap-store) Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap. #### [Learn more about snaps](https://snapcraft.io/docs) Interested to find out more about snaps?
