Fluxmail runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 402 installs a week from npm. Last commit 16 Sep 2026.
Read, search, draft, send, and organize email through Gmail, Outlook, and IMAP/SMTP mailboxes.
Nothing serious here today
Today is the operative word: we check Fluxmail every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.
