It's been five years since I mentioned that email clients suck infinitely.

Nothing has changed. It's the same on the Mac and the PC.

This is commodity software that we all use, but because it's nearly all free the innovation happens elsewhere.

I use Mailsmith, a commercial (read: not free) email client. It's the best I've ever used, but it still doesn't support IMAP. I want to switch to IMAP, but I don't want to drop the 99 other Mailsmith features I'd hate to go without, like it's awesome filtering system.

Justin Wood started this round of the conversation. I picked it up on Brent's site this morning.
