Good email client for Mac

Apple Mail is pretty great itself. But, if you had to choose a different client, I would recommend Thunderbird. But, make sure you go under settings and adjust it so that replies to email are on top of the quoted message, not below.
Apple's Mail app works well with multiple Gmail and other accounts. There's no need to look elsewhere.
What's lacking in Mail? You need to be very clear regarding what you mean by "better" if you want recommendations.
Apple Mail is just fine, but Airmail just launched today to rave reviews (and very cheap): https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/airmail/id573171375?mt=12
airmail sucks
I've been using both Sparrow and Airmail for a long time.
Airmal was the hope for the next Sparrow, but it's so full of bugs and the development team behind it is very weak, and create new bugs with every update. After a few months you just loose hope and return to Sparrow as fast as possible.
There is no new Sparrow, and Sparrow still performs great...

Yeah, Thunderbird is end of life. A good email app that builds ontop of Thunderbird is Postbox. I use it for work because it's very powerful and looks a lot more like a native Mac app than Outlook for example. Outlook is ugly.
I don't subscribe to the recent trend of Mac email apps with excessively simple UI's either. Maybe for light emails in personal use, but never for conducting business.

Postbox? I should check that one out.

$20???? Thunderbird and Apple Mail are free!
I've been using postbox for over a year now and I have to say it crashes at the worst times and rather often. Too often I have to say for a supposedly polished app that isn't so cheap.
I have been using Canary Mail for about a month and love it. http://canarymail.io Regularly updated and nice interface. In Beta at the moment but not had any issues!
