How to Install BlueMail on Kali Linux

BlueMail for Linux ships through the Snap Store. Kali Linux doesn't preinstall Snap, but snapd is available in its repositories — it just needs its services enabled and /snap/bin added to your PATH. BlueMail requires a 64-bit Intel/AMD (amd64) system.

Steps to Install BlueMail on Kali Linux:

  1. Update the package list and install Snap:

    sudo apt update
    sudo apt install snapd
    
  2. Enable the Snap services:

    sudo systemctl enable --now snapd snapd.apparmor
    
  3. Add Snap to your PATH: Kali's default shell doesn't include /snap/bin, so add it (for the default Zsh shell):

    echo 'export PATH=$PATH:/snap/bin' >> ~/.zshrc
    

    Then open a new terminal, or log out and back in.

  4. Install BlueMail via Snap:

    sudo snap install bluemail
    

Once installed, launch BlueMail from your applications menu or by running bluemail in a terminal.

Conclusion:

Kali Linux supports Snap with a little manual setup — install snapd, enable its services, and extend your PATH. After that, BlueMail installs and stays up to date automatically.
