The Clean Email alternative built for Microsoft 365.
Clean Email helps you bulk-process and unsubscribe from existing mail using its own web app and grouping rules. mailbud takes a different approach: it reads each incoming Outlook email and files it into the right folder automatically — natively inside Microsoft 365, with no rules and no separate inbox.

What you get with mailbud
Reads intent, not keywords
mailbud interprets what each email is about and files it the way a thoughtful colleague would.
Your own Outlook folders
Files into your real folder structure under a prefix you choose — nothing proprietary, nothing to migrate.
Learns from you
Every correction becomes a private example, so filing matches the way you organize over time.
Review queue
Uncertain mail is held with the reasoning shown, so nothing important is silently misfiled.
Never sends for you
mailbud reads and files only. It never sends, replies to, or forwards mail on your behalf.
Private by design
AES-256 encrypted tokens, EU hosting, and your mail is never used to train any AI model.

When Clean Email is the right call
Clean Email is great for a big one-time cleanout — bulk-archiving old newsletters and unsubscribing in batches.
Clean Email focuses on clearing the backlog from its own app. mailbud focuses on keeping new mail organized automatically, inside Outlook, so the inbox doesn't fill back up after the cleanout.
- Native Microsoft 365 integration
- Files into your existing Outlook folders
- Plain-language setup, no rules to maintain
