FAQs: Email in your browser
How do I access my inbox with one click?
After you have downloaded and installed the MailCheck email add-on, you will be asked to enter your email address and password – in other words, to perform one full login. Once you have done so, you can check your email in your browser with a single click on the MailCheck envelope icon that will appear in the toolbar. This lets you skip the usual steps of going to your email provider’s login page, clicking log in, and signing in with your username and password. You can enter your user name and password for additional email accounts by clicking the gearwheel for > Settings and then selecting > Add account. Now you can access multiple inboxes with a single click.
Is the MailCheck browser extension secure?
mail.com is an extremely secure email provider. We take data protection and privacy seriously. All of our email security features – secure data transfer and servers, spam filters and virus protection – are standard to MailCheck as well. And all the accounts you add to MailCheck are still protected by your passwords. However, we always recommend locking your screen if you are away from your computer so that unauthorized persons do not have access to your internet browser and therefore to any saved logins.

How do I deactivate MailCheck notifications?
The MailCheck default settings have the sounds deactivated. If you aren’t a fan of pop-up messages, you can deactivate these notifications as well. Or if you prefer to be notified of new messages by sounds but no visual cues, you can set up MailCheck accordingly. Simply click the icon in your browser toolbar to open MailCheck and then the gearwheel symbol in the lower right corner. Under > Email Settings, you can set your notification preferences for each email account you have added to MailCheck.
