Show HN: CleanEmail – email clean/organization tool which doesn't sell your data

Keeping email clean is a never-ending task. I really want something that can help.

I've spent some time with various tools, I like the UX of your tool. My first reaction was that it seemed promising.

But in practice... I'm not sure how it would save me time. I just spent the last 30 mintues trying to create rules and such to help it clean my inbox... I think right out the gate you need to show value.

Right away it should have a list of all mail that's from email spammers, and give me the option to delete it. I suspect, in time, you'll have data needed to identify the spammers more easily?

I'm new to the tool... so maybe I got this wrong... but I know that I have friends and family that send using BCC... and for whatever reason it thinks all of those are spam. They aren't. But to protect them... I have to go to every from address and say, "This isn't spam..." and that's a lot.

Anyway if you do a search for the word "noreply" or "unsubscribe" in your Gmail... 99% of the time that's spam. You can quickly delete it.

I empty my inbox by doing "before: 04/24/2017" every Monday morning... any emails from the past week get thrown in the archive... I do star a few things as I go to help me follow up.

If the tool could do some smarter stuff like... instead of specific email addresses, I want to block everything from anyone "@paypal" that sort of stuff -- that'd be good... I can do that already with Gmail.

Nice UX, I can see this being useful for people who don't know how to use advanced queries in Gmail... it takes a bit of time to set up though... whatever you can do to cut that down so people see value in the first 3 minutes would be good.

hello everyone!

In short: CleanEmail helps you organize, remove, label, and archive groups of emails in your account. Instead of focusing on individual emails, CleanEmail segments your mailbox using smart rules and filters.

We're very strict about privacy and data: we don't keep, sell, or analyze your data for the purposes beyond our public features. Our privacy policy is in the bottom of every page and it clearly explains what we do with data and what data we collect.

I'll be happy to answer any questions.

Love this. Thank you for charging and respecting privacy. In the future, would be great to have periodic audits from third parties to verify that privacy is being respected (since email is the most sensitive account that I have).

Also, a hugely useful feature for me would be the ability to archive emails older than X days (not just 2 years).
