   There is NO Spark Version for Windows. That's why Thunderbird is the Best Alternative IMO.

   works like an old email client, downloading the message and saving in folders. It doesn't work syncing directly online with gmail labels.

   Security & Privacy of Spark is questionable: "Data storage and encryption is secured through Google Cloud service." Thunderbird supports OpenPGP & S/MIME email encryption and is still completely free.

   It is a pain to get working with a business Office 365 account. Very outdated methods for getting started.

   I tested it, generally it is ok, but it sometimes does not show new arrivals at the top of the list, even though the counter increases. However, good mail client, which does not need any clumsy registrations somewhere.

   As far as my usage history, the best alternative for spark mail is Mailspring in terms of UI and UX. Though it lacks some features I use Mailspring as my daily driver.

   It's the most similar, with the features most inline. It even looks the same in appearance, and all the menus and shortcut keys match.

   BlueMail vs Spark Mail Comments

   BlueMail is built as an entire Chrome browser instance, using a separate OS process for every message window, making it massively heavy on CPU and memory usage. Normally I had to wait more than a minute for each message to display. It was always at least half an hour late to notify new messages. A software development team with even minimal skills would never build an app so poorly. The design is crippled from top to bottom. I recommend avoiding BlueMail as if it were malware.

   Very similar to Spark on Android and even less problems on multiple accounts as BlueMail
