Thank you. I too use Google calendar quite a lot. To add the reminders I create in DarwinMail to Google calendar would be an amazing lift in productivity.
I personally want this feature and will work on it sooner rather than later.
That's quite fascinating! Thank you for the interesting perspective :)
I will mock up some minimal interface designs. Perhaps a mail distraction free mode (we currently support a distraction-free mode for typing emails). This could be very cool :D
Can you please take a screenshot & upload to Imgur?
Show me your console please as I will know exactly what to do then! (From the loading screen -> right click -> inspect -> click the console tab)
I really wish Google would be clearer about what this means. This allows DarwinMail to create your email (when you use the compose functionality), modify your email, and send your email (when you click the send button). This also allows you to update and save drafts.
You can read the emails I am composing, but not read the emails I receive? That is better, and I could always compose sensitive emails in gmail. So possibly I'd give this a shot with my personal email.
I'd also like to use this at work, but Boomerang[0] was deemed not allowed, so I would imagine Darwin would also not be allowed.
I'm guessing Darwin stores the reminder data on its own servers? That doesn't bother me, most reminders are quite benign.
For reminders that maintain privacy, I would imagine one would need to write a browser extension that threads reminders into gmail. Which doesn't sound like much fun, but also a pretty primitive integration would probably be good enough.
DarwinMail packages your email before it's sent into a raw format (that's not comprehensible text, but a mix of letters and numbers - like IBASDBAA2982NFIUEXJWI02FDIEWD) - but a lot longer!
When the mail is received on another client (Outlook, IMAP, etc) the client knows how to parse the email - to show it to you. I can't speak for other email clients, but I can tell you with all certainty, that DarwinMail does not store any of this email data. DarwinMail just displays it to you on your device.
The code is all available for you to look at. On DarwinMail just right click -> inspect and you can see everything.
Reminders are stored in your browser. They do not touch DarwinMail's servers :)

Thank you so much! They're not (I don't think ha!). Could you tell me more about how a custom domain would work with DarwinMail?
I have tested DarwinMail with many browsers and found many differences in the way it behaves as many browsers tend to support various types of web functionalities in different ways.
For example, clicking a button in Chrome does not behave the same way as clicking a button in Firefox or Safari.
I have tested so many different behaviours on many different browsers.
I am in the process of cataloguing every specific web functionality I require in DarwinMail and making a chart of those functionalities across several browsers to ensure I know exactly what needs to be tested, what is working and what needs to be fixed.
That is correct.
However, would you think again if a little pop-up reminder told you just before you exited the app?
To be fair though, I keep my email tab opened all day. I never close it!
You are so right. Please bear with me as I make the necessary adjustments over the coming days.
Thank you :)
