With favorite folders at the top, I can file a message into any Sane-folder without having to scroll a long list of mailboxes from my Gmail account. Thanks to the SaneBlackHole (another folder), I also have an easy way to make sure I’ll never see a message from a specific sender again. Sanebox has learned from my training and it knows where to file messages from important people. Thanks to Sanebox, I’ve gotten used to a new kind of email triaging workflow: the few messages in the inbox are acted upon as soon as possible, while SaneLater and SaneNews emails wait until the evening or the weekend, when I have more time to read. If you don’t agree with Sanebox’s intelligence, you can train it by filing messages into a different folder or by creating more advanced rules on the Sanebox website. Messages that Sanebox deems important stay in the inbox. Similarly, newsletters and other “announcement” emails go into a SaneNews folder. Those messages are automatically moved to a SaneLater folder as soon as they hit my account. The service’s marquee functionality is the ability to discern messages you don’t need to see right away. Two months in, I can say I’ve never had a better relationship with email than with Sanebox. I’ve never had a better relationship with email than with Sanebox.

Sanebox seemed to be tailored precisely for my problems. Even if you switch email clients, you’ll be able to take advantage of Sanebox because it’s just a brain in the cloud, independent of the app you use to read emails. As long as it’s connected to your email account, Sanebox will remove unimportant messages from your inbox and file them into a folder. It’s the same concept as apps like Inbox and Spark, but it happens in the cloud and it uses mailboxes/labels, which means you can change email clients and Sanebox will continue to operate because it’s not a proprietary feature of an app. Sanebox is a web service that connects to your email provider (in my case, Gmail) and separates messages in categories based on importance and type. I explained my reasons for switching in my previous coverage of versions 1.0 and 1.1, but there are some recent developments that have improved how I manage email on my iPad even further.Īs I shared in the October 2016 Monthly Log newsletter for Club MacStories members, I started using Sanebox a couple of months ago. While I’ve kept tabs on other email apps, I always go back to Airmail because of its power-user features and integrations. I switched to Airmail as my primary email client in April.
