I tried it for a year for a Gmail-backed account. My complaints are:
1. Searches in Mail are slower and less accurate than web-client searches.
2. No access to Gmail filters.
I don’t blame Mail for this, but it is a reason I returned to the web client.
3. Applying labels is harder in Mail. Maybe I missed it, but it wasn’t as easy to apply multiple labels or to apply a label to a draft email.
4. I couldn’t find a Send and Archive feature in Mail.
Basically, I like the Gmail experience. I hate Google, and I’d love to move away from them. I have for search, maps, mobile OS. For calendars, contacts, and mail, Google has the features I like.
- codezero 6y agoAgree with your points. My use case doesn’t involve gmail so can see how that complicated things especially from a UX perspective. I wish IMAP/standards had more of a say in email like they did (sort of) for web.
