Can only auto-bcc “myself”, which is a fixed email address corresponding to the sending account if you allow autobcc, why not let the user pick the email to autobcc to?
Apple Mail (Snow Leopard) - deleting an old email account deletes ALL mail belonging to this account, even for downloaded POP3 mail. No support for flowed plaintext, despite promises to the contrary, and no support for quoted-printable content-type and soft line breaks. Microsoft Outlook Mac 2011 - mangles all outgoing plaintext emails by inserting hard line breaks. Especially egregious problems for the top three mail clients: That’s all I really need to be happy here.Īmazingly enough, there is not a single Mac mail client that fulfills all of these basic conditions. All you really need to do is auto-populate the BCC field on any “New Mail” composition window with this address.
Bonus: auto-bcc to an arbitrary email address - I’ve never solved my problem with archiving sent mail.
Similarly, in the scenario that this app is no longer supported, I need the option of moving to another client.
mbox import/export - I need to be able to import mail from my previous client. Filtering rules - Basic filters that let me decide where to put messages based on mail headers and subject is enough. At least allow this as an option, or support the quoted-printable content type and soft line-breaks during composition. Manually formatting hard line breaks at char 78 is an insane holdover from a bygone age when dumb ASCII terminals were still the primary user interface. Plaintext composition - I’m taking the side of format=flowed in plaintext composition. Archival - if I delete an email account, it should not wipe out all emails from local storage that belonged to this account, especially if said account was POP3. Full-text search, or indexable by OS X’s Spotlight. While everyone is gushing over the latest social network to be jammed into an email client, I just want my email to work in a sane way. However, it is strange that I simply cannot find a native Mac email client on the market that fulfills what I consider to be very basic features for decent email management. As the tech-savvy sort, I often do some things that the typical consumer might not care about.
