MailMate 0.9 - New IMAP-only mail client. (Shareware)

MailMate is an ambitious email client for Mac OS X for IMAP only. It is currently in a beta state which means that it has not been thoroughly tested by users and it lacks a few features which can reasonably be expected from a modern email client. Beta-versions of MailMate are free to use, but it is also possible to buy a license. Early supporters are rewarded with a discounted price and lifetime licenses.

Shortlist of features:

• All message headers and text bodies are indexed and are available for making advanced searches.
• Multiple ways to use displayed names, subjects, dates and more to quickly search for related messages.
• Easily switch between mailboxes using only a few keystrokes.
• Easily move messages to any other mailbox using only a few keystrokes.
• Mute messages in order to automatically handle later incoming related messages.
• Dynamically created sub-mailboxes which can, e.g., be used to automatically display all mailing list messages in separate smart mailboxes.
• Special mailbox containing all messages.
• Multiple alternative layouts for the main window. Examples include a simple statistics view (see the screenshot).

• Initial release

• Mac OS X Leopard (10.5) — final release may require Snow Leopard (10.6).
• Only the IMAP protocol is supported and the UIDPLUS extension is required (the latter is present in most IMAP implentations). There is no POP3 support.
