ugh, I’m shopping for a new macOS mail client, I need:

- multiple fastmail / imap / gmail accounts
- multiple aliases per account
- modifier-less keyboard commands
- must NOT use a third-party server for ANYTHING (rules out Spark)
- must have an option to disable remote images
- sort/view by sender & thread
- I have a very high bar for subscription fees; Edison/Canary/Newton don’t cut it

I’ve been doing email since 1994, my favorite clients have been Claris Em@iler, Mutt, Spark, & Sparrow

@ak hm. Any idea if they open links in their browser or the system browser?

@mattly Mail is integrated into the browser but maybe you could change how it opens links. @jon or @Vivaldi would be able to answer that, or field a feature request.

@ak @mattly @Vivaldi

By default we open mail links in the browser. If requested, I am sure we could add the option to open it somewhere else, but that has not been requested so far. There is significant benefit with having the two integrated.

You will find we have a lot of useful functionality in there. You mention keyboard commands. How about T to view a thread? E to view a contact? Besides the normal keyboard shortcuts. In fact you can tailor them to your own liking. G to mark a mail as read and jump to the next unread one is a personal favorite.

We disable third party content by default.

We have a very effective search solution that allows you to find any mail inside seconds. Means you can spend less time moving mails around.

Enjoy! Let me know what you think!
