Only new mail · SiteBirdy

When you add a mailbox, choose Only new mail, from today under Which mail SiteBirdy shows. SiteBirdy then ignores the mail from before that day, in every folder: it isn’t in the lists, the counts, search or Today, and Empty Trash, Block and Select all leave it alone. Mail that comes in later shows, also older mail you move into a folder with another app. SiteBirdy only notes who wrote to you and whom you wrote to, so New senders still knows them. Either way, all your mail stays on your mail server: SiteBirdy shows it from there, like any other mail app (IMAP), and adding a mailbox moves nothing. Want the older mail after all? Choose Show older mail too.
