ibisMail - Filtering Mail App Reviews

Love the functions folders creation and filtering messages.Hope to see devs continue.

This is a good app.The interface feels a bit clunky, but more configurable than built-in mail.

This is what I was looking for. The mail filtering is brilliant!

Great app easy to set up and use. Fast. Nice job. Got it for an imap acct Works great

It doesnt have "push" feature and does not delete off of server. Other than that it is a 5 star app

I began searching for an Apple Mail alternative for a simple (and highly requested) reason. My imap server does server side filtering (moves messages to folders based on conditions). Mail on the iPhone does not poll folders under the inbox for new messages (strangely enough Apple Mail on OS-X does, and by default). This is really an important feature to me and the only reason I purchased this app. Needless to say this app does not support this feature either. I sent in a feature request and am hoping the developers are responsive and can implement this. I know there are a huge number of iPhone users who want this as well (just google it, its all over Apple forums). If this were the only issue I would have given it three stars instead of two but a moment ago I tried to use it to listen to a voicemail I had on my voip line (a simple .wav file attachment) and it doesnt seem to be able to play it. So not only does it not improve on Apple Mail in any way that I care about it is actually less useful. Should the developers implement these features I will definitely revise my rating but as of right now I am regretting this purchase.

Awesome... Didnt want to switch from BB until I knew I could count on getting my business email from the IP... This gave me the confindence to make the switch... One coworker also got the app when I showed him how sweet it worked...

Wow, just the program I was looking for. Thank you! Would have given 5 stars, but I have to agree with previous reviewer that the status bar icons need to be larger and spaced further apart and the status text smaller.

This program works with SSL enabled IMAP (dovecot/postfix mail server) and is one of the only iPhone apps that does. My biggest issue with ibisMail is that the icons on the bottom are too small and close together (two icons in the space of one normal icon), are flat and lack sufficient visual cues to distinguish their functionality. I dont want to have to use a pogo stick and a magnifying glass to use this app. The status message should be removed from the bottom and presented on demand. I would like to be able to set the font size for the preview text and the various lists, such as the "Accounts" or the "Folders" view, which is a bit too small. And why is there no swipe to delete? The user has to either press "Edit", select the message, and find the "delete" icon, or open the message and find the delete icon. Too many steps. ibisMail deserves more then the 2 star average rating it has now. I gave it an extra star to help bring up its rating.

Nice interface and clearly a serious app, but with 2 big flaws, one is annoying and the second is fatal. 1) Annoying: Lack of push or fetch. Other apps can provide push, so I can work around this, but cmon you got so much else right! 2) HTML emails recd as text format with an HTML attached! Really? This is awful! It makes reading email a phenomal pain. Made me ditch the app altogether. Fix these and I am sold. For now, just dissappointed.

I use it with my own @ account on my own domain. It is all I need. Maybe push notification could be a good update but not a must have. I just love it :)

I was fairly disappointed with the iPhone Mail program. I have emails I need to keep and it seemed to have no way to do that, but this program can keep them, sort them, read attachments easily, you can have multiple accounts-I am very happy with this program. This is my favorite app I have purchased to date.

The worst app ever. I wish i could get my 8 bucks back. I have tried sooo many times to get it to recognize my email addresses and no luck whatsoever. Now i want to know why. Why did i pay for something that is useless on my Iphone?

There are lots of things to like, but there are two serious killer flaws. The delete unwanted email process has too many steps; why not use a swipe to delete? HTML is shown as plain text, so it doesnt show all those nifty formatting options, graphics, etc. How could they get so many things right and still miss the obvious?

Since the default mail app is set up for my work account, i wanted a second app to keep my personal mail separate but still on the phone - and ibis does the job!

A little buggy but I havent had any major problems with any of my accounts. The landscape and filtering are a definite improvement over the junior high iPhone email. I would like it to be sortable and searchable but that is apparently too much to ask on an iPhone.

IT CRASHES ON STARTUP AFTER THE LAST UPDATE !!

Dont buy this app. No email can be configured ..

Dont buy this crap. Dont waste your money! Very bad software and very bad service!

They have made many needed improvements since I bought it in 2009. Easy delete, mark read feature, ease of setup. Did hiccup on the ATT mail server, but there is a quick and easy workaround. I like being able to mark read and a few other features the iphone mail app lack. Needs to incorporate the push and would be very close to 5 stars, so I give it 4.5.
