I know they say this on their site, but can someone very clearly confirm that this is purely a client and uses IMAP/SMTP and doesn't send anything to Mail Pilot

I know they say this on their site, but can someone very clearly confirm that this is purely a client and uses IMAP/SMTP and doesn't send anything to Mail Pilot (the company).
- alexobenauer 13y agoCEO here, can confirm. Mail Pilot runs IMAP and SMTP directly to your email server and back; nothing in the middle. Our first client, released in 2012, did make use of a 3rd party server, but it made too many people uncomfortable, so we found ways to implement the advanced functionality of Mail Pilot without needing a 3rd party server (here's the blog post of the announcement that we were moving away from using a 3rd party server: http://mindsense.co/blog/6-major-announcements/ http://mindsense.co/blog/6-major-announcements/).
- codezero 13y agoAwesome, thanks for confirming this and sorry for being overly paranoid.
- alexobenauer 13y agoNo problem & don't apologize - I too would be paranoid about giving a random company my email credentials. That's why we moved away from it.
