Review Summary
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.

Cons
- Fails to support Hotmail/Outlook accounts properly as mentioned in multiple reviews.

- 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.
