What is Zoho Mail - Desktop?
Zoho Mail - Desktop is a desktop email client for macOS that helps you read, send, and organize email without keeping your mailbox open in a browser tab. It is designed for Zoho Mail users who want a dedicated mail window, desktop notifications, and quicker access from the Dock. The app mirrors core mailbox functions from the Zoho Mail web experience, including account switching and common message management tasks. It also supports opening EML files in the desktop app and can be set as the default desktop mail application on Mac. Zoho Corporation offers it for Mac alongside Windows and Linux versions, making it useful for people who work across multiple desktop platforms.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
This is a legitimate desktop mail client from Zoho Corporation, and notification access or default-mail-app integration is consistent with its purpose. As with any email app, it can store account data, message content, and attachments locally on your Mac, so use a strong device password and review which accounts are signed in. If you do not use Zoho Mail, a mail app with this bundle ID or name deserves a closer check to confirm where it was installed from and whether it matches the official Zoho product.
Recommendation: Keep it if you actively use Zoho Mail on your Mac and want a dedicated desktop client. If you no longer use Zoho Mail, removing the app will stop its notifications and local mailbox access, but your mail remains available through Zoho's web service.
