What is Vireo Mail?

Vireo is a desktop email client for Wayland that feels at home in GNOME. It talks IMAP/SMTP directly, keeps your mail and credentials on your machine, and blocks trackers by default — no telemetry, no analytics.

Features

  • Multiple accounts — IMAP and POP3, each on its own background worker, with a unified All Inboxes view.
  • OAuth 2.0 sign-in — Google, Microsoft and custom providers over XOAUTH2, plus import from GNOME Online Accounts.
  • Whole-mailbox sync & search — no message-count cap; a fast first page loads instantly, the rest indexes in the background with infinite scroll.
  • Two-way sync — deletions and moves from your phone or another client sync back automatically (IMAP IDLE + reconciliation).
  • Conversation threading, compose/reply/forward with HTML signatures, editable drafts, and full folder management.
  • Outbox — a send that fails is kept and retried when the connection returns, not lost; queued messages can be edited, sent by hand or discarded.
  • Message previews — the first one to three lines of each message under its subject in the list (or off).
  • Single-key shortcuts — Gmail-style j/k, r, a, d and friends, without a modifier (see below).
  • Printing — print a message with its sender, recipients and date, with an in-app preview that also saves straight to PDF.
  • Runs in the background (optional) — closing the window keeps mail arriving; Vireo appears under Background Apps in the GNOME system menu, and can start at login without opening a window.
  • Privacy-first reading — remote content blocked by default, per-sender allow/block lists, and a per-message light/dark content theme.
  • GNOME-native — adaptive three-pane layout, per-account colours and emoji avatars, light/dark following the system, optional GNOME Contacts.
