And while there’s nothing difficult about that, simply finding things in different menus means the switch between the two environments takes a bit more getting used to. If you’re a power-user – and thus motivated to consider a switch – you will have to do things like recreate your mail filters.

Postbox gives you a free 30-day trial, and it only costs $10 to buy, which gives you a single-user licence valid for as many Macs as you own. The other good news is that so long as you’re using IMAP (see Setup, below), you will be free to switch back-and-forth between Apple Mail and Postbox until you decide whether or not you want to make a permanent switch. Second, Postbox can import your accounts from Apple Mail, getting you up-and-running very quickly. First, most email apps out there use broadly the same user-interface, so you’ll feel at home with the basics pretty much immediately. While switching email client might seem like a slightly daunting prospect, there are two pieces of good news. With email, that gets tricky: even subject lines can reveal confidential information, so I’ll talk about my own usage but use Postbox’s canned screengrabs to illustrate. With most software reviews, I like to show plenty of screengrabs of my own real-life use. I’d used Thunderbird before, so that was high on my list, and some googling pointed me to Postbox, an email client which uses Thunderbird as its engine but layers a prettier user-interface on top … I finally lost patience with it and decided to look around at alternatives. Unread mail counts that take an age to update, deleted emails that reappear next time you click into an account, moves to folders that undo themselves, undo actions that don’t work and – most annoyingly of all – a mail list pane that remains blank when you switch account, sometimes for seconds, sometimes even for minutes at a time. While Apple Mail seems to have continued to work well for those with simple needs – a single email account, no filtering into folders – power users have experienced a whole succession of problems that Apple seems unable to fix. Sadly, this has not been the experience many of us have had with Apple Mail for quite some time – especially Gmail users.

You would think a high profile app written by Apple specifically for OS X and supplied with every Mac sold would be as close to flawless as you can get.
