When I was still on Gmail in 2012 or so (?) I really really loved that app! Actually, I’d easily pay $25 or even more for a similar app, for Fastmail.
Mailmate at https://freron.com/ is fantastic. My only gripe is that it is Mac-only, so I can't use it on my work desktop. (linux)

This looks great!! It's beautiful and lightening fast. I would definitely pay for this. Except for one thing. It doesn't seem to support priority inbox, which is critical to my workflow. My currently gmail inbox looks like this: in:inbox is:important is:unread in:inbox -l:important -is:updates -is:promotions -is:social in:inbox -l:important (is:updates OR is:social) in:inbox -l:important is:promotions in:inbox is:imp…
Great feedback – I've gotten this request a lot today. It's been something I've always planned on doing, but based on the popularity of this request, this is a lot higher up on the list now.
Would have been useful to be able to reuse my email address from desktop but using a different email seemed to work fine.
Hi HN! In the past, I spent over 7 years working on Apple Mail, and today I am really excited to share a new email client I'm building: Mimestream, a native macOS email client for Gmail. Mimestream is written in Swift, and uses AppKit+SwiftUI for a clean, stock appearance. It's designed to be fast, lightweight, and use a minimal amount of disk space. Mimestream's advantages over using the Gmail web interface includes…
How can users be sure that it doesn't do stuff that you say it doesn't or that you are who you say you are, considering "Mimestream LLC" only has an email address and your HN profile has only ever posted about this one app?
Hope that's not too aggressive :) legitimately curious if this is something that you've thought about or if you are planning on gaining reputation over time to the point where people will click through the scary "This app can delete all of your gmails" warning.
This looks fantastic - any chance of an OSX 10.14 version though?

This is doable via a shell script (+ pandoc): # 1. Put markdown on clipboard # 2. Convert to hex out=$(pbpaste | pandoc -f markdown -t html -s | hexdump -ve '1/1 "%.2x"') # 3. Convert to an applescript data class osascript -e "set the clipboard to «data HTML${out}»" # 4. Paste rich HTML You can use something like Alfred or Keyboard Maestro to trigger that script with a keyboard shortcut.
Very clever! Thanks for sharing! As a programmer, having native markdown support in the app is something I wish for almost every day (especially for code blocks). It's something I plan to add.
Is there a way to get rid of the badge counter on the dock icon? I somewhat feel anxious/FOMO when the counter is there.

This is a great point: "There are no intermediary servers with access to your account or copies of your messages." A number of popular email clients use intermediary servers and that's a complete deal breaker for me. I'd argue that should be a deal breaker for almost anyone. I'm not a security expert, but as far as I can tell, for most people the single biggest security vulnerability is an attacker gaining access to…
I never quite understood what the value add was for email-client developers to use intermediary servers. Is it to gather usage telemetry or something else?
