There's not much point in asking me this. I'm soldered onto my copy of Mail.app. Still, this is a very innovative and clever modification of Gmail for a specific purpose. It's possible using Mail Act-on and MailTags to get something similar in Mail - and this is what I do, personally - but I am still able to admire the efforts of the GTDGmail team.

I use Gmail purely as another email account and download it to Mail.app. That's where I do all my emailing from. I have instant search in Mail.app, so why ditch Mail.app and go to a browser format, even though Gmail is fast? At least with Mail.app, I still have all my email when I'm offline. So what's your take on this? I travel everywhere with my laptop, so is there any advantage to still ditching Mail.app and going solely with Gmail?
