ClearInbox helps organize connected email accounts by grouping messages, supporting bulk unsubscribing, and automating cleanup. Smart folders sort mail into categories such as newsletters, social, shopping, finance, travel, old mail, and large mail, with suggestions to archive or delete messages. Users can unsubscribe individually or in bulk where RFC 8058 one-click support is available. Auto Clean rules can move, archive, delete, star, or mute messages on a schedule or when newly synced mail arrives. A sender screener holds first-time senders for approval or rejection, and users can block senders or domains. The web app also supports composing, replying, forwarding, searching, labeling, starring, and pinning across connected accounts. It works with Gmail, Outlook, Microsoft 365, Yahoo Mail, iCloud Mail, AOL, Fastmail, Exchange, and standard IMAP providers, with multiple mailboxes managed from one dashboard. The maker says cleaning uses headers and metadata and that full message bodies are not stored on its servers. ClearInbox offers a free account to connect a mailbox and can be self-hosted with Docker.
