From the article:
"[...] it’s buggy and crashy, it needs to update my email library every few months when I open it (why does my email need a library?), and it lacks any sort of innovative feature set (or even support for things like snoozing)."
- stephenr 10y agoAnd yet none of us seem to see those issues. I can remember mail.app needing to rebuild a mailbox to a new format maybe twice or three times, since probably 2008. 1 person saying "x is buggy and crashes" doesn't mean much without actual descriptions of the problem.
- schneidmaster 10y agoI mean, if you like Mail.app, use Mail.app. I'm not here to tell you that you should change how you read your email if you're satisfied with it. I was pithy in the Mail.app section because the article was already shaping up to be quite long and I just sort of assume everyone in the Apple ecosystem has used Mail.app at least a bit and knows its strengths and shortcomings already.
- stephenr 10y ago> knows its strengths and shortcomings already. I've used mail.app since I've used OS X, and I wouldn't describe any version I've used as particularly "buggy" or "crashy"
- superchink 10y agoNot to pile on, but Mail.app has seemed the most predictable and consistently performing (with search and basic usage) of all of the clients I have used, including most of those mentioned in the article. I realize this is just one data point, but as unpopular as your perspective is, stephenr, I share it.
