About Mailbird
Mailbird is a commercial desktop email client for Windows that lets users bring multiple email accounts together in one place. It also connects to other apps so that common tools can be used next to the inbox without switching windows.
Mailbird runs as installed software on the user's own computer rather than a self-hosted server product. It is relevant to people who juggle several mailboxes and want a single client; see the vendor's site for current features, supported platforms and pricing.
