![]() I’d rather use mail that doesn’t let anyone get that insight if I can help it. There’s money to be made in seeing what people buy, and when, and at what prices, and what newsletters they subscribe to, and where they’re located, and what their political affiliations are. For hundreds of millions of Gmail users it’s acceptable (assuming they even realize it), but I don’t like it, and I don’t particularly have confidence in the Edison’s or Readdle’s ability to have sufficient security to protect my mail coursing through their servers. It’s a valid question and, in the next update of Spark, we will change this behaviour.” Does it currently still storing the tokens even if you don’t use Push notifications - I don’t know.īut as far as I know they do continue to scrape data to pay for the app development and server-side infrastructure of the “free” app.Īllowing mail providers to scan and harvest info from my email is just not acceptable to me. In a 2015 blog post entitled “How we handle your account information in Spark” they wrote, “Some people raised a question about why do we store access tokens even if you have decided not to use Push Notifications. (“We then use the authorization provided to download your emails to our virtual servers and push to your device.”) store your emails on their servers to push them to your devices.store credentials for your email accounts on their servers.We might use that email address to reach out to you periodically”) (“The first email you add to Spark is used as your username. automatically create an account with the first address entered, and subscribes you to their newsletter.(“We use third party services, such as Google Analytics, Facebook Analytics and Amplitude, to collect and analyze how you use Spark.”) send statistical data to several services known for bad privacy policies (Google, Facebook) to which there’s no way to opt out.According to Spark’s privacy policy they stated several things that gave me me pause when I looked at them a couple of years back. That’s why so many of us love the Pinned Messages ability–it’s a common sense tool that adds real value to time spent in our inbox,” said Hetal Pandya, VP of Marketing for Edison Mail.Yes, and it’s been discussed here before. Your inbox is the most dense and information rich resource you rely on in your daily life, and those of us spending hours at our desktop know firsthand the need to refer back to an important message later. “In the age of information overload, the ability to keep track of important conversations has become a critical component of productivity. Pinned Messages is our newest feature to help you with inbox management by saving you from wasting valuable time searching for the important emails you need. Messages pinned in your personal, work, Focused, or Other inboxes will stay exactly where you pinned them. The messages you pin will also remain in their original inbox. There is no limit to how many messages you can pin to the top of your inbox, and you can view all of your pinned emails in a separate Pinned folder in your sidebar menu. You can also pin a message by hovering over the email you’d like to pin and selecting the pin icon that appears next to Flag, Trash, and Mark as Read. You can also pin messages by creating a Swipe Action in your Settings. To unpin a message, simply follow these same steps but select Unpin. From an opened email in the Edison Mail Mac app, you can tap the three dots found in the upper right corner of your screen and select Pin from the list of options. We’ve made it simple and intuitive to pin messages, plus provided a few different ways that you can access the feature. Introduced earlier this year on iOS and Android, Pinned Messages are a great way to stay on top of your inbox by keeping your important emails front and center. Our team is happy to announce today that we’ve brought Pinned Messages to our Mac app. (ICYMI, this is also why we recently launched a brand new set of Search capabilities for your mailbox). Somewhere between all the messages for work, personal commitments, and even hot holiday retail sales and deals, you’re likely receiving messages you want but are struggling to keep track of across your inbox.Ĭonsider that the average person receives over 100 emails a day - that’s a lot of messages to keep track of and it’s all too easy for one–or even a few–to get lost in the shuffle. ![]() ![]() You can now pin an unlimited number of emails to the top of your inbox so what you need is always within reach.Īround this time of year, important emails tend to add up.Introduced earlier this year on iOS and Android, Pinned Messages is our latest feature to help with your desktop email management.
