Will Mailsmith?Įmail apps are different from most anything else. Wow that's great but what happens in 6 months if I do switch to Mailsmith? Mail.app will still be supported, even if there are glaring bugs. This happens to be what I first thought of when I saw this here. Because lets face it at some point we are going to have huge archives and if there is no support for issues the whole thing will be useless.

Are you planning to make a paid version? Are you planning to keep the free version? Are you going to open source the code?īasically even a free mail client requires a commitment to maintain before most of us will be willing to switch.

To offer up this previous paid app for free is nice but allot of us would like to know what the future is for the app. email is something that for most of us here is indispensable.
It is a nice gesture that the app is now free. I would like to comment to Barebones about releasing a previous paid for app as free. Text Wrangler is awesome as is BBEDIT for serious work. you possibly even don't know what to do with all these features.īought this years ago for a lot of money and although it's free now I don't regret that I payed for it. Without some knowledge in POP3,SMTP,Shell,RegEx. If you search an 'app' don't use this as this program provides features not fun. I have over 5000 mails in my archives and can search in < 30sec in all these mails for any term. I don't want my mail in HTML.Īnd Mailsmith is really fast. If you request HTML you also want to have a build security hole. It's one of really few clients that displays raw content without all these stupid HTML-Elements. It can pass all my mails through my own scripts using the shell. Mailsmith is the ONLY mail program I know (and I have tested a lot if not all for Mac) that can handle my 420 SMTP accounts combined with just 1 POP3 account. There are enough tool/apps with blinking elements and funny popups but without all the features needed by the pros. I really love MailSmith and hope that it stay what it is: A tool for the pros. If you're serious about your e-mail composition, this program is as serious as you. But there's numerous rewards for riding that curve out. Like BBEdit, there's a bit of a learning curve. But I've found the in-program filtering to be sufficient.Īnyway, if you've read this far, you should at least give it a try. Luckily, being an old Powermail user, I've learned to turn that thing off in a quick hurry).
They do include a demo of SpamSieve as a consolation (which I find more annoying than spam itself. This is a feature not terribly important to me, but others seem to live and die by it.

But then again, having multiple clipboards and hot-keyed clippings more than make up for it, so I'll chose not to sweat the small stuff.Īlso in interest of full disclosure, I feel I should mention it's spam filtering capabilities are limited. The inability to reorganize the mailbox list or toolbar is a little bothersome, and I wouldn't call it's functionality exactly intuitive. Now with that said, there's a few things that bug me about the program.
But like me and the thousands of other BBEdit users, we only care about what's under the hood. Like BBEdit, it's spartan and utilitarian. If that sentence means nothing to you, then you probably won't care about Mailsmith. I can put what's attractive about Mailsmith very succinctly, as it gives you most the text editing powers of BBEdit (which are many) in an e-mail client. And, for someone like me who's always wanted to become a Mailsmith user but found myself in the wrong tax bracket, this is very good news. What used to be the most expensive e-mail client available, is now the cheapest (free, even).
