Advice Request Best email app for multiple accounts

[DSD27]

I have 4 emails that I use regularly so it's not just Outlook. If there's any folder which could be backed up and restored then that would've been ideal for me.

But aren't you using them as IMAP? Is any of them @outlook too?

Yes all are IMAP and one of them is outlook. I'm using Thunderbird but Outlook would do the job for me as well but I can backup everything of Thunderbird but looks like it's not possible in Outlook app.

So, Outlook is Microsoft Exchange, it's like IMAP but it also syncs contacts and calendar. They don't need backup, like I said, it's all in the server as well.
Thunderbird doesn't sync contacts or calendar, it's useless and outdated... who backups emails locally in 2020?

Be eM Client never do this:

In early 2010s, Microsoft was scanning emails not for the sake of advertisements, but to "fight spam."
Also in 2017:

Spoiler: Cortana

Windows 10: This update wants to SCAN your emails

For Stefan Weitz, Microsoft’s (MSFT) senior director of online services, this is all a matter of “semantics.” The intent of Google’s (GOOG) “going through” email is what makes that “going through” a bad thing, compared to Microsoft’s “going through,” which is entirely benign, he said in an interview Tuesday.

source: Much like Google, Microsoft also scans your email

Those above applied for all emails providers like: Gmail, Yahoo.

As a bonus take a look on this topic and article:

You didn't understand my point. I can carry my Thunderbird profile around and can use it even on another PC if I want without logging into my emails again. Can't do that in Outlook. I also don't need calendar syncing.

What about contacts? How do you send emails without contacts? Only buy replying...
I don't see the point in that, just use the web outlook.com, it's easy to login and you have everything there. You can add other email accounts, like Gmail, as IMAP in outlook web, you will have everything in one lace. You can add up to 20 accounts, or if you prefer you can also forward everything from the other accounts to that one outlook account.

Ok, didn't know about this. I'm gonna try it.

I wish it didn't have this limitation.

Syncing from your connected account to your Outlook.com account is one-way only. Email sent from your connected account using Outlook.com will not appear in your connected account Sent Items.

If you delete, move, or read an email from a connected account in Outlook.com, you won't see those changes when you go to your connected account.

For example, email sent from your Gmail account using Outlook.com will not appear in your Gmail Sent Items, and Gmail messages deleted in Outlook.com will not be removed from your Gmail Inbox.

 

[DSD27]

I wish it didn't have this limitation.

Yep, me too. But you can use the gmail address when sending an email, does it matter if it's not saving on the gmail website? it will save on Outlook, which is what you're going to be using anyway.

Mailbird is great.

Our travel agency utilizes several, but I think ProtonMail and Outlook are our most used ones. It's important to pick an app whose layout will not make you panic at first haha. Juggling hundreds of accounts for daily campaigns and sequences is no easy task. A simple mistake in the CC category can cost the whole company a lot, and the same goes for the B2B space as well. The importance of digital marketing bleeds into so many types of commerce these days that it's definitely a skill you can carry over to your next gig.
