  1. Add option to filter out deleted or junk mail in a search

    It would be nice to filter out the trash and junk mail when doing a search. Otherwise when you clean up you get errors about elements no longer in collection.

  2. Multiple Flags (categories)

    I am an Independent Contractor and this would make Canary Mail a usable app for me. Apple Mail and MS Outlook allow the use of multiple colored flags (in Mac OS Mail) or Categories (in Outlook). This is an important feature for me to organize my mail across different projects/timelines. This is an important feature that I look for in any Mail App, please consider adding this feature to Canary Mail.

  3. Add individual mailboxes (folders) to the favourites

    With many other email clients, I have come to rely on being able to add specific folders (mailboxes) to a favourites list so I do not have to go drilling down into all my folders. This is especially useful if you use a sorting service (ex: SaneBox) that automatically sorts your mail in specific folders. But even if you do not have such a service, not having to expand any number of recursive folders to get to a specific one seems like a showstopper. Apple Mail, Spark, Airmail, etc, all have the ability to add folders to favourites. Cheers!

  4. Email Search engine: search "from:mario", "from:xxx@mail.com"...

    As it is a standard on email clients, along the day we need to retrieve a communication from someone of from a subject. so usually we do a search using keywords, like "from: mario" and I will see all emails listed that were sent by mario, or I write "to:xxx" and I see all emails sent to xxx...or even by subject, "subject:xxx". and I can read all emails from xxx subject. this is key to work efficiently.

  5. Add an "Unsubscribe" shortcut

    For some reason there's no "Unsubscribe" option in the "Messages" menu for Canary. (See "Canary Messages Menu" screenshot attached) Also, under Settings > General > Shortcuts there is no option to set a shortcut for "Unsubscribe" (See "Canary Settings - Shortcuts" screenshot attached) Please add this feature as it will make it so much quicker/easier to Unsubscribe. When I'm working through emails, I have the "E" key set to "Archive" and the "W" key set to "Delete" and I would like to just as easily hit a key with my left hand, instead of having to use the trackpad/mouse to go click the triple dot menu, and then hit the "Unsubscribe" link.

  6. Sorting emails by sender

    Sorting emails by sender is, own my opinion, a basic function of every email client. It helps to sort through emails quickly and clear unwanted emails or move them to folders. I find it amazing that Canary Mail does not have this feature. It is also noted that Canary Mail's own website promotes sorting emails by sender (https://canarymail.io/blog/manage-and-organize-emails/): 'Group by the sender: Another way to organize your inbox is by grouping messages from specific senders together. This can be particularly useful if you work with a lot of different people and want to quickly find messages from a particular colleague or client.' So, why is this function not there?

  9. Will you make a Linux vertion of this wonderful email program?

    There are many people using Linux, it would be convenient to have the crossover, between say, android and Linux, as there is with Windows and Canary mail.

  10. Appleโ€™s Reminder integration

    Congrats re: integrations. This is game changer. Can we expect an integration with Appleโ€™s Reminder anytime soon? Also, this would be awesome to have integrations options in swipes for quicker access/process. Best

  12. Add a button for translating incoming emails.

    It is easy to translate outgoing emails, but there is no option to translate incoming ones. Can you add this function?

  13. Mail Translator

    Hello! You have a very good application, an unusual idea, a lot of useful functions and I really like it! It would be great if your mail application could translate emails from one language to another (inside the application, not to switch to another application). I also noticed that many emails have borders, is it possible to stretch the text, reduce the indentation on the left and right so that it is convenient to read on the phone? Now in the mobile application, the text on the left and right recedes strongly from the edges of the screen, which is not easy to read.
