User reviews

Users appreciate MailCheck for its easy, user-friendly design, reliability in email checking, and unique email domains. However, multiple reviewers report that the extension struggles with Hotmail support and frequently logs users out, causing login frustrations. There are concerns about excessive permissions the extension requests, potentially impacting user privacy. Some find language and signup availability limited in certain regions, and email preview features are not fully functional, requiring manual email website visits for full content. Overall, it is seen as a useful tool but with notable issues to address.

Pros

User-friendly interface and easy to use.
Reliable functionality for email checking and notification.
Unique and professional email addresses that users appreciate.
Secure and trusted by users as their must-have extension.
Good support and positive user experience for general email management.

Cons

Fails to support Hotmail/Outlook accounts properly as mentioned in multiple reviews.
Frequent login issues including repeated prompts for password and logouts after system sleep.
Permissions requested by the extension are excessive and concerning to users (e.g., access to web history and data on multiple sites).
Limited language support and sign-up options in some countries such as Bangladesh and Indonesia.
Incomplete email preview functionality forcing users to open full website for reading detailed content.
