  1. Adjust picture size in the send email window

    Currently when attaching an image to an email, the image takes up the full width of the email email, often resulting in massive pictures, particularly on portrait format pictures. It would be nice to have the option to change the size of the image.

  2. Highlight the unread emails in the inbox

    It would be easier to identify unread emails in the inbox if they were highlighted rather than indicated by just a blue dot.

  3. 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?

  4. Out of Office Responder

    Out of office replies would be very useful when OOO. This is an important feature for those using Canary for work.

  5. Account Colour Prominence

    Showing account colours only adds a very thin bar the the side of the email in the inbox. It doesn’t really help that much. I’d like to see this bar a bit bigger and in the left hand side next to the avatar to increase visibility.

  6. Ability to create MS Teams & Google Meet online meeting invite directly from calendar

    Many service provider (including EM Client, Super Human & Outlook) have this feature of creating direct meeting link from calendar. Please integrate the same.

  7. search by folder and email

    Please provide us with an option to search only by folder. Example: If I want to search the sent box only for email xxx@gmail.com, I should be able to do that. As of now, we cannot do it as it is pulling results from all emails and all folders.

  8. Preserve aspect ratio of inline image attachments

    Currently when attaching an image inline, its aspect ratio is altered in order to fill the screen. This really shouldn't happen in my opinion as it skews the image, making it appear quite odd. As best I can tell, there's no way to avoid it. I realize there's another request to manually adjust the image size, which is one potential way of dealing with the issue. This request instead addresses the underlying problem. I will trust the developers to come up with the best way to fix it!

  9. 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?

  10. Apple’s Reminder integration

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

  12. Save Emails to on my mac folder

    Need to have the option of storing your emails on your mac folder in the email app or computer not on the server for storage offline use and have the email stored in the industry standard .eml files

  13. Preview Reading Pane - Option to turn off

    The ability to select Preview Pane visible, ability to turn Off. A basic feature of Apple Mail, Outlook, etc. Nice feature to avoid having an email contents on screen and improves reading the Inbox emails with additional screen space.

  14. Add “Forward as Attachment” in Canary Mail to send emails as .eml files with headers & formatting intact. One-click via right-click Forward.

    Add “Forward as Attachment” to Canary Mail to send emails as .eml files, preserving full headers, formatting, and metadata. Essential for professionals who need the original message intact—support teams troubleshooting issues, legal teams keeping records, or security teams analyzing phishing. A one-click option in the forward menu should attach one or multiple emails exactly as received. Best use case: sending a suspicious email to IT for analysis without alteration.

  15. Unblock trackers, ideally individually

    Unblock trackers. I don't want to unblock ALL trackers, I want to select. So if I get an email, it's automatically blocked and I can choose on that specific email to lift the block and let them track me. And perhaps there's a option where it's like "Remember my preference for this email" etc
