It looks like what it is - An old app, patched up to try and look like something that's current.

Instead of a full interface redesign/rebuild for OS X they just slapped in a few nasty looking generic icons and that was that. Finally, I can't finish without commenting on the interface - It has always been horrible, but now it's even worse. There are so many things wrong with it that there is not space to list them all, but suffice to say that so much of what a modern day mail client should be is simply missing, or implemented in a half arsed way.
In the old days it was passable, but these days it is struggling to keep up, and has been for years. They just need to listen to their user base here and on their discussions a little bit more. But I so much wish CTM would make PowerMail a more modern and competing app. And there could be so much more to PowerMail, than 'only' maintaining the app, but thanks for keeping it alive anyway. They are there somehow and they show up, when problems arise (seldom enough), but there is more to support than only putting out fires. I never had problems with PowerMail, this app runs not only very fast but also absolute stable here for years.
I have supported users of Apple Mail and Entourage for years and to me PowerMail is the one app I trust the most, when I think back about database problems I worked on. Though I agree, that the database limit of 2gb can be a limitation, I see myself not approaching that limit for the next ten years with 9 years of email already behind me.ĭatabases need mantaining and I cannot follow the complaints here. The attachments are stored external and not within the database. I just love how fast it start's - boom and it's there -, how fast it executes my many pop-accounts and I especially like the great search engine. Provide a smooth migration experience to users of Microsoft Entourage, Outlook Express, Claris Emailer and Netscape Communicator 4.x.
