Its free plan includes 1 GB of email storage, 500 MB for documents and photos, five aliases, advertising banners, and IMAP4 and EAS access. The Premium plan costs €1.50 a month and expands the mailbox to 20 GB, provides 5 GB for a virtual disk and photo albums, and supports up to 100 aliases.

Its migration tools can retrieve messages, contacts, and events from an old provider and configure forwarding. Mailo also offers responsive, personalized support in English. Founded in 1998, it offers both free and paid plans for people seeking email alongside calendar and contact-management services.

Mailo combines email with calendar, contacts, cloud, and sharing services, and offers a free tier alongside Premium. The free plan includes ads and modest storage, while Premium adds capacity, aliases, and ad-free webmail.

Mailo suits people who want email with calendar, address book, cloud, and sharing tools across web and mobile. Premium may suit users needing more storage, aliases, or an ad-free webmail experience.

Overview

Mailo is an email service with a calendar, address book, cloud storage and sharing tools. It suits people who want these services together and value a choice between light free use and a larger paid mailbox. The free tier is constrained by small storage and advertising; Premium is the more workable fit for a growing mail archive.

Key features

Mailo brings mail, calendar, contacts, cloud storage and sharing into one service. Its migration tools can retrieve messages, contacts and events from an old provider and configure forwarding, reducing the friction of switching. Responsive, personalized support is offered in English.

Mailo says it stores data in France, does not use or sell it, and does not read messages. It also supports end-to-end encryption. Those privacy commitments are a meaningful part of its appeal, though the practical draw for many users will be the combined services and flexible access.

The free plan provides 1 GB for email and 500 MB for documents and photos, with five aliases and advertising banners. IMAP4 and EAS access are included. This is enough room for modest personal use, but the mailbox and file quotas can become limiting for people who keep years of messages or regularly store attachments.

Premium expands the mailbox to 20 GB and file storage to 5 GB, raises the alias cap to 100, and allows attachments up to 50 MB. It removes webmail advertising and adds POP3 or IMAP4 access and an email address for life. The larger mailbox is the clearest upgrade; even so, 5 GB for files is a modest allowance for users with substantial photo or document libraries.

Pricing

Mailo Free: free. It includes 1 GB email storage, 500 MB document and photo storage, five aliases, advertising banners, and IMAP4 and EAS access. It is a sensible starting point for light email use, but the small quotas make it a poor fit for a large archive.

Mailo Premium: €1.50 a month, billed monthly. It includes 20 GB mailbox storage, 5 GB virtual disk and photo album storage, up to 100 aliases, ad-free webmail, POP3 or IMAP4 access, a lifetime email address, and attachments up to 50 MB. The paid plan suits people who need significantly more mailbox room, many aliases, or an ad-free webmail experience. The Premium offer can be activated for 1 to 5 years.

Platforms

Mailo is available on the web and through software, smartphones and mobile apps, with apps for Android and iOS. The range suits users who want access across desktop and mobile, while IMAP4 and EAS on the free plan offer options beyond webmail.

Who it's for

Mailo is a good fit for people who want email alongside a calendar, address book and cloud tools, and for those moving from another provider who can use its message, contact and event retrieval. Free works best for light personal mail; people who need a larger archive or many separate addresses will get more from Premium. Those whose priority is ample file storage should weigh the 5 GB Premium allowance carefully.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Mail, calendar, contacts, cloud and sharing are bundled, so everyday services can live under one account.
• Pros: Premium's 20 GB mailbox, 100 aliases and 50 MB attachment limit offer a substantial step up for heavier email use.
• Pros: Migration tools retrieve messages, contacts and events and can set up forwarding, easing a provider change.
• Cons: Free email storage is limited to 1 GB, and file storage to 500 MB, which restricts long-term or file-heavy use.
• Cons: Free webmail includes advertising banners, and the free alias allowance is only five.
• Cons: Premium file storage remains capped at 5 GB, which may not suit users with large photo or document collections.

Verdict

Its main limitation is the tight free storage and the still-modest 5 GB file allowance on Premium; readers with heavier storage needs should look elsewhere.
