SimplifyEmail regularly filters your email using the IMAP protocol, filing messages based on your preferences and eliminating unwanted email. You can receive a digest summary of which folders your email has been organized into every few hours or days (it’s up to you). There’s no need to regularly look through all of your folders for new messages. You do not need to redirect or forward your email in any way. You do not need to change your MX DNS records.
