Great, just what the world needs(not), another email application, why can’t people just support Thunderbird instead of making their own hack version.

I agree, but there appears to have been little movement since 0.2. Is this a dead project?

Man, for a .2 app … my only comment is “holy shit, I hope he keeps at this!”

It’s a few keystrokes and preferences away from replacing Mail.

Any hope for an alternative to Apple Mail is welcome. I’m reaching my wit’s end with this sorry application. Unfortunately, it does not look like there has been much progress past version 0.2 in Correo.

Personally, I haven’t had any problems with Mail.App’s IMAP implementation. I’ve been using it with two different IMAP accounts for quite some time, and it all works great for me. With add-ons like MailTags, MailForward, MailAttatchment, MailAct-On etc, Mail.App does most things you could want.

The one thing that lets Thunderbird down, and makes it completely unusable for me, is the lack of address book integration. If this ever gets rectified, then I would consider using it purely for the additional extensions that are available. But it’s a non-starter for me until that time. Plaxo have a plugin available that could solve this problem, but that’s still only working with TB 1.5.

For me, the switch to Thunderbird at work was because I’m still on 10.3.9. I wanted labels, smart folders, ability to send an email and get notified when someone opens it, ability to separate the inbox by days (today, yesterday, past week, etc), the ‘attachment reminder’ plugin and a few other awesome plugins.

Correo looks exciting because it’s like mail, but with a developer that may be a bit more responsive to what the Mac community wants. Like tab interface, iCal integration, labels and other wishful features.

Shame that TLS/SSL is not implemented yet, I think, as it doesn’t seem to work with IMAP and SMTP using both which means I’m unable to use it… I was hoping for a good Mac client which did a good IMAP implementation…

Support for nested IMAP folders would be a good start.

Any chance of adding support for tabs?

FWIW, Mail most definitely does not have a toolset that will let you perform HTML composition of e-mails.
