It is not surprising that Mimestream has an ‘Apple look’. This Mac app for Gmail was created by Neil Jhaveri, who spent seven years with Apple. There he worked on Mail and Notes for macOS, among other things.
What makes this Gmail app so special for your Mac is that it uses the official Gmail API, not the old-fashioned IMAP protocol. This means that you can use features in the app that you normally only see on the website or in the official Gmail app. There is a small drawback to this: you can only use Gmail accounts in Mimestream.
Set up Mime Stream
Setup is very easy. Download the 14-day free version of the Mimestream website and launch the app. Then go through the installation and log in with your Google account. Give the app permission to use your account and you can get started right away.
