QuickMail v0.6.9 Release Notes

Released June 3, 2026 — downloads for this release

Download

Two options are available for v0.6.9:

Download When to use
quickmail-v0.6.9-setup.exe — Windows installer Recommended for most users. Installs per-user with no elevation required, checks for the WebView2 Runtime, and registers an uninstaller.
QuickMail.exe — standalone portable executable No installation required. Copy it anywhere and run.

Both downloads include the .NET 8 runtime — you do not need to install .NET separately.

The installer requires the Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime to render HTML messages. It is preinstalled on Windows 11 and most recent Windows 10 systems; the installer downloads and installs it automatically when missing.

Uninstalling

Uninstall from Windows Settings → Apps. The uninstaller gives you a choice: remove the app only, or remove the app and all your local data — the accounts configuration, mail cache, contacts, rules, templates, and saved views stored in %AppData%\QuickMail. Passwords in Windows Credential Manager are never touched.

Uninstalling QuickMail does not affect your mail on the server. Nothing on the server is ever changed unless you take an explicit action in the app. The only time QuickMail permanently deletes messages is when you choose Empty Trash.


New Features

View Properties (Alt+Enter)

Pressing Alt+Enter anywhere in QuickMail opens a read-only Properties dialog for whatever is currently selected — the same shortcut Windows uses for properties everywhere.

What opens depends on where focus is:

Focus location Properties shown
A message in the message list From, To, Cc, Reply-To, Subject, Date, Message-ID; account, folder, and IMAP UID; format and attachment count
A conversation header (Conversations view) Subject, message count, unread count, all participants, newest and oldest message dates
A sender group header (From view) Sender, message count, unread count, most recent date, and newest subject
A recipient group header (To view) Recipient, message count, unread count, most recent date, and newest subject
A folder in the folder tree Folder name, full path, account, and message counts
An account in the account list Display name, email address, IMAP and SMTP server details, authentication method
A contact in the address book Display name, email address, group memberships, and last-used date
A group in the address book Group name, member count, missing contacts, and a list of all members
An attachment in the reading pane File name, MIME type, and size

In grouped views (Conversations, From, To): pressing Alt+Enter on a group header row shows properties for the group itself. To see properties for an individual message inside a group, expand the group, navigate to the message, and press Alt+Enter.

Navigating the Properties dialog:

The dialog contains a single properties list. Arrow keys move continuously through all rows, including section headers that appear as named entries in the list. Tab moves to the Copy all and Close buttons.
