Configuration

Customize go-mapi installation options and behavior.

Setup  

Install go-mapi with go-mapi-setup.exe from the latest GitHub Release. The setup app installs the desktop app, registers the local DLL interceptor, and configures go-mapi for Windows MAPI mail requests.

Registry Keys

  • Default action: Draft or send immediately
  • Default account: Which Gmail account to use
  • Notifications: Enable/disable desktop notifications
  • Signatures: Append a configured signature
