Love it. For me it's the best. Simple and effective. Never had any issues with IMAP. I use a mix of IMAP for my main mail server and POP3 for my two gmail accounts.
If it wasn't for MailTags and Mail Act-On I would have probably stopped using Mail. It's a good email client for the most part but like has been said by others it gets the unread count wrong from my IMAP account and can get rather sluggish on my MacBook from time to time. I hope Leopard sees some improvements to Mail.
Used this for a long time. Then I got sick of it maxing out my processor, the non-stop HD reads, and many many crashes.
Switched to Thunderbird. Haven't looked back.
That aside, it really is a VERY good email client. Easy to use, nice interface, and works with everything I've thrown at it. But it doesn't seem to be a good choice for a laptop because of its processor and HD activity if you let it run too long. In that case, switch to Thunderbird, or something else. It sits happily for weeks on end without a problem.
IMAP support is could be definitely improved. For me, working with server side filtering is horrible. Mail.app never gets the read/unread count correct. But I hope this will be fixed in a future release. But don't get me wrong. At least it has potential ;)
Opinions:
a little buggy in Leopard (has been crashing on me) but overall i've been really happy..
Since upgrading to Leopard, it's been freezing on me every so often...
I didn't use it before Leopard but now I fell in love with it, the iCal/Address Book integration is priceless
I figure that there have to be better mail apps out there. But since this does everything I want... Well, the power of inertia is strong...
I'm sorry, I'm just a tad confused. Is there a Mail update I am too blind to see, or what?
