GyazMail[3] is an email client for macOS,[4] developed and maintained by Japanese programmer Goichi Hirakawa.[5] It supports the POP3,[6] IMAP[7] and SMTP[8] protocols. Its handling of multiple email accounts[9][10] includes local mailboxes.[11]

Gyazmail is based on the native macOS Cocoa[6][12] and written in Objective-C. For its search function, GyazMail uses the Oniguruma regular expression library,[12] which supports a variety of character encodings, which is especially relevant for Asian languages.

Version 1.0.1 was released in 2003.[13] Starting May 30, 2022, GyazMail ended support for Google Accounts due to Google's requirement of OAuth, which was cost prohibitive.[14]

Features

  • Supports IMAP, POP3 and local storage folders
  • An option exists for setting maximum line width when sending mails. This is helpful where autowrap is not supported, such as for newsgroups, which require a maximum line with of 72 characters, with a hard wrap.[12]
  • Message threading is supported[10]
  • Multiple accounts
  • Sorting rules for incoming and outgoing mail can be defined
