    Different to normal mail, but certainly not bubbled and chat-styled like Spike. DeltaChat is the best alternative

    eM Client is an excellent traditional email client. I use it to stay on top of my emails. It doesn't have a "chat" interface like DeltaChat, Spike, Unibox, or Mailspring, but it's interface is very good.

    Mailspring has (arguably) an interface that looks enough like a "chat" client that it could work for you, if you're not satisfied with DeltaChat, Spike or Unibox

    Delta Chat looks and feels like other popular messenger apps, but does not involve centralized control, tracking or selling you, friends, colleagues or family out to large organizations. "Privacy by Design" has never been more fun.
