[MlMt] AltaMail vs. Preside?

[Randall Gellens]

I nicely useful blog post, thanks for writing it and letting us know.  I 
especially appreciate the clear, early links to the app's privacy 
policies.

Just as an aside, you write "MailMate isn’t 'pretty.' Its interface is 
busy and dated-looking...."  I am thoroughly sick of sleek and 
modern-looking interfaces that range from utterly useless to 
user-vicious.  It seems that every major web site and app has 
"modernized" their interface, making them clean, pretty, lots of empty 
space and pictures, at the cost of being able to see or do anything.
