Cool idea, but it's buggy. Works sometimes, but not others. Reasonable for a closed Beta. Main issue though is that if you try to reply it launches your local mail program. It'd be cool if it would use the actual services email.

Giving away your password to who-knows-whom? Sending e-mails to your working mail address, you that your mailbox can get cluttered? Or e-mail blocked because of some words used in it? Doesn't SoX require that all commnuication to be stored for audit purposes - do you really want your colleaugue or an auditor to read some "casual" messages? Not to mention your boss, asking why are you reading redirected personal mail insted of working. Why not sharing the password on your blog, so that some "good soul" can check your messsages insteda and e-mail you the summary :) ? What's next, sharing your SSN, credit card numbers and bank account data with some service, so that bills can be payed in the same manner?

I concur. I don't know about giving one company access to all my accounts.
From a technical perspective, this is convoluted at best. Send me an email to tell me that I have email??
And the real solution to dealing with all these contact points is to cull them, not consolidate them.

Vatroslav, I am one of the co-founders of NutshellMail and I would like to address your concerns. First, NutshellMail takes privacy and security extremely seriously. We encrypt email addresses and passwords in a manner similar to online banking sites, which you can learn more about by reading our "privacy" section on the website.
Regarding your concerns about using NutshellMail at work, you should know that NutshellMail has been vetted and approved for use by many companies that currently restrict access to external messaging sites (as mandated by government policies like Sarbox and HIPPA, etc). Why? Because many corporations realize that giving employees access in a way that does not undermine their security and government compliance objectives, is important to create a more balanced work environment and to attract and retain younger employees.
As a former employee of a company that restricted access, I can tell you most people simply use their work account for personal messages or they forward their personal account into their work address, which really creates inbox clutter. The more savvy employees use proxies that undermine security and consistently frustrate IT departments, who waste a lot of time trying to find and block them. The reality is most people feel the need and right to have access to their personal messages.
NutshellMail works within the firewall structure. Instead of forwarding all your accounts to your work email, we send you a single consolidated Update of all your message headers on a recurring schedule you define. You can then retrieve any specific message into your work account, but we believe that our users are intelligent enough to use their discretion and not retrieve a message that may contain inappropriate content. Therefore, your employer will only see the sender and subject line of your messages or any message you select to retrieve through NutshellMail.
Finally, NutshellMail does not ask for your bank account or credit card number, however, over half of million users have happily submitted personal financial information to sites like Mint.com, Rudder.com and Wasabi.com.

I've been trying it for a while but it's so buggy I've given up relying on the emails I'm sent. The concept is interesting but more work is definitely needed.

I just signed up in minutes... This is awesome. I am in sales and have a ton of email accounts. I really like the fact that I can get all my messages in my work inbox. I have used the other aggregators out there and you have to use thier mail service, which defeats the purpose for me.
