[MlMt] AltaMail vs. Preside?

[Michael Nietzold]

to be honest: 

First before I tried mailmate I did read a review also writing that the UI is outdated 

without this hint i would never look at mailmate.

but with this warning that I should not judge the UI and I should only look at the functions which programmers would love I would never find this (hidden) gem of a mail app

that's wHy its good to point out this in a review.

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.

Of course, where MailMate’s interface is concerned, I was writing mainly to those unfamiliar with it and whose only experience is with the glitzier looking apps of more recent years. Having personally used many different email clients over the last quarter-century, I am perfectly happy with its interface. I wish for only one tiny thing more — the option of showing a two-line-or-so message preview in the messages list — which is one of the items Benny has said he will get around to adding someday. :-)
