  1. increase blocked email addresses allowance

    give users the ability to block more than 1000 emails. spam emails are sent everyday, we need more options to keep our inboxes clean. Lock it behind a paywall, I don't care.

  2. Search by sender in the inbox, not the search bar.

    I want to use as little movements of mouse and keystrokes to search. At the right of an email in the (More...) area you could search emails by sender yesterday, August 13, 2025. It has now changed to search by subject line. Why would anyone want to search by subject line? Bring back the search by sender! Prior to either of these changes, the search button was just right there on the left side of the sender.

  3. Refresh Inbox

    Would be very helpful if you added a refresh option/icon on the header. that way we can check for new email without having to reload the entire page.
