InboxFerry

InboxFerry

A small, focused desktop app for backing up and migrating IMAP mail without adding a cloud service in the middle.

InboxFerry is built for people who want a direct tool for IMAP backup and migration without committing to a complex service stack.

The release includes direct downloads for macOS, Windows, and Linux, plus a separate Mac App Store edition. Direct purchases are fulfilled outside the app and activated locally with a signed license file.

Trial mode backs up up to 100 messages per run.

Keep the setup simple

No web dashboard, no extra hosted account, and no Node-based website stack required for the marketing site.
