I regularly try Apple Mail on MacOS, but I'm never satisfied. In few words:

I need something like “smart notifications” to only notify for important emails, and not all my incoming emails
Group emails (like what Gmail do), for exemple Newsletters, Notifications/ Promotional, …

If possible, I would like to use the same app on MacOS and iOS (iPad & iPhone). But Apple Mail is the worst app I've ever tested…

I’m currently using Spark (Desktop on MacOS + app on iPhone & iPad), the app is really good but not in term on privacy, dependent to a 3rd party, ….

What are you using for your emails on MacOS?

To make this work with Mail.app, you can use server-side filter rules to sort stuff into respective folders. The big advantage of course being that it doesn't depend on what your client can do (but if you can't use server-side, you can also set up rules directly in Mail.app itself). As for notifications, you can filter them with a "Smart Mailbox" (including checking that it's in a certain folder so you can re-use the rule processing) + setting message notifications to only trigger for that smart mailbox.
