The remote servers that Mail.app communicates that are... the email providers. As far as I'm aware, when I use Mail.app with Fastmail, Apple doesn't send all my Fastmail email through their servers. Mail.app talks directly to Fastmail.
A mail client which works like Ship 2.0 would be Nylas[0][1].
For anyone who wants a bug tracker for GitHub Issues, JIIRA, or FogBugz which communicates directly with their issue tracking server[2] someone mentioned Bee[3] further down.

- grinich 10y agoWe actually released a version of Nylas Mail last week that communicated directly with your email provider. (Plus it's free!) More details here: https://blog.nylas.com/nylas-mail-is-now-free-8350d6a1044d https://blog.nylas.com/nylas-mail-is-now-free-8350d6a1044d (I work at Nylas.)
