Airmail
App Description
Airmail is an email client with a slick and modern visual design and built-in support for many apps, including OmniFocus. It’s touted as “having fast performance and intuitive interaction” and supports most email servers, including iCloud, Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft Office 365, Gmail/Google Suite, and IMAP.
Airmail for Mac
You can create an OmniFocus action referencing the selected email using Airmail for Mac. Select the email and control or right-click on the message and choose Send to > Create OmniFocus Task. Or, better yet, use the keyboard shortcut ^ā„O. Either way, the Quick Entry window will appear with the title of the action set to the subject of the email and a link to the message stored in the notes field. This link allows convenient access to the email from OmniFocus and will continue to work even if the email is moved to another folder, such as the Archive.
Additionally, the Mac version of Airmail allows you to create rules that leverage this OmniFocus integration. These rules can be triggered by the contents of the email and/or a keyboard shortcut. For example, you could trigger a rule using ^S that creates an OmniFocus action for the selected email and then moves the email to the Archive folder. This integration opens up a wide range of possibilities for automation.
Airmail forĀ iPhone & iPad
Airmail is alsoĀ available for iPhone and iPad. Once configured, you can create an OmniFocus action referencing an email by choosing Send to OmniFocus from the Action List. The email’s subject is used for the title of the action, and the notes field contains both the contents of a message and a link to the email itself. Conveniently, this link will work across Mac, iPhone, and iPad versions of Airmail. As of iOS/iPadOS 14, you can even make Airmail your default mail client.
