PostBox - a better way to do email

[maflynn]

I came across this app after is recommended on another forum. I'm trying it out now to see if in fact its an improvement over mail.app.

In the mean time, I'm wondering if others have tried it and/or use it.

It's discussed quite a bit in these threads:
Email advice, Thunderbird vs Apple Mail
gmail push slow all the time...

Is there any particular feature you're looking for that Mail.app doesn't do?

Easily change the subject line-- not available in Outlook 2011 Mac v1.x (despite that feature's presence in Windows Outlook), Thunderbird nor Mail. This is a deal-breaker feature for those of us who are swamped with multiple daily email notices from assorted courts, with standard non-informative subject lines like "Notice of EFiling in case #123456789."

Yes. This is a huge issue for many people.

PostBox doesn't seem to have a keyboard shortcut for quoting a passage. Annoying.

Agreed. I even used KeyCue (I loathe playing peekaboo with menus to find this stuff) to be SURE I hadn't missed any relevant keyboard shortcuts. Grrrr.

This may be worth a shot. Thanks for the tip.

I think Mail works fine..Sure, there are some issues, but I don't personally feel there's enough of a benefit from Postbox to justify paying for a mail app.
