1 points by frabia ↗ HN
What are the best email client (desktop app) these days? I have used the default Mail app on Mac since forever, but was wondering if there's any more modern app with cool features.

Do you have any app to recommend? What feature in particularly do you enjoy of it?

I found Spark and seemed interesting. Anybody using it an recommends it?

Spark version 2 has been my go-to for years, but they just released v3 which is an electron app that requires a subscription, and that’s a hard pass from me. I’ve found Apple’s Mail client a woefully inadequate replacement, however, so for the time being I’m sticking with Spark v2 via the crApp store.

thanks for the info! Did you notice big performance issues with the Electron version compared to the native? I'll check the v2 then!

I haven’t tried the electron version purely due to its subscription nature. Plus, v2 has been great in my experience so i haven’t really needed to. It couldn’t hurt to give it a whirl if the trial and subscription model isn’t a showstopper for you.
