Mail.app alone had enough issues and missing features to sustain an entire cottage industry, and would be one app I would certainly like to contribute to. But it shall never come to pass.

The tragedy here is that Apple mail was far and beyond the BEST IMAP client up until ~2014.

I worked for a defense contractor that used an encryption mechanism for email that was primarily supported by Outlook, Thunderbird had a paid plugin, but Apple just opened all my emails just fine.

Maybe it's just nostalgia but i really miss Eudora.

Mail.app makes me sad, because it is neglected. Outside of Thunderbird, it's sort of this last bastion of desktop-first mail clients when everything else, even "New" Outlook, has become a web app or some electron monster.

I use mail.app daily across phone, iPad and Mac - it's "fine" but I'd really love it to get some investment.
