Mail lets you manage all your email accounts from a single app. It works with most popular email services, such as iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo Mail, and AOL Mail.
One-stop email. Tired of signing in to multiple websites to check your email accounts? Set up Mail with all your accounts so you can see all your messages in one place. Choose Mail > Add Account.
Find the right message. Type in the search field to see suggestions for messages that best match your query.
Focus on what’s important. See only the messages you want to see in your inbox. You can block messages from specific senders by moving their messages directly to the Trash, mute overly active email threads, and unsubscribe from mailing lists directly in Mail.
Add events and contacts right from Mail. When you receive a message that includes a new email address or event, just click Add in the message to add it to Contacts or Calendar.
Protect your privacy. Privacy Protection prevents email senders from learning information about your Mail activity. If you turn it on, it hides your IP address so senders can’t link it to your other online activity or determine your location. It also prevents senders from seeing if you’ve opened their email. Turn it on in Mail Preferences > Privacy, then check Protect Mail Activity.
Hide your email address. With an iCloud subscription, you can create a unique, random email address any time you need one (for example, when completing a form on a website), with no limit to the number of addresses you can use. When you create a Hide My Email address for a site, you can send and receive messages without having to share your real email address and have that correspondence forwarded to the email address associated with your Apple ID. You can create, manage, or disable a Hide My Email address at any time in iCloud preferences on your Mac or in Account Settings on iCloud.com. See Create unique, random email addresses with Hide My Email and iCloud in the iCloud User Guide.
Translate in a snap. Select the text you want to translate, Control-click the selected text, choose Translate, then choose a language. To translate text you’ve typed, click “Replace with Translation.” You can also download languages so you can work offline—go to the Language & Region pane of System Preferences, then click the Translation Languages button at the bottom. Not all languages are available. See Translate on Mac in the macOS User Guide.
Personalize any message. Add emoji or photos with just a click. Select photos from your photo library or take them on iPhone or iPad. You can also add a sketch you’ve drawn on your iPhone or iPad. To learn more about inserting photos and sketches from other devices, see Continuity Camera on your Mac and Continuity Sketch and Continuity Markup on your Mac.
View in full screen. When you’re using Mail in full screen, windows for new messages automatically open in Split View on the right, so it’s easy to reference another message in your inbox as you write. See the Apple Support article Use two Mac apps side by side in Split View.
Never miss an email. Check the Mail icon in the Dock to see the number of unread messages. When you get a new email, a notification also appears at the top-right of the screen so you can quickly preview incoming messages. (Don’t want notifications? To turn them off, open System Preferences, then click Notifications.)
