Dear eM Client Team,
i recently downloaded the test version of eM Client to see whether or not it would suit our needs. We run a small non-profit and mail is used by myself and two colleagues, mostly working on the same IMAP accounts.
Up until now, we’ve been using Apples Mail, in conjuncture with a) an extension for PGP, b) another extension for mail tracking, and c) another extension for tagging mails and adding notes.
Looking at eM Client, I am thoroughly impressed! It’s such a well-done piece of code, very pleasing optics, and above average functionality (plus, it’s from the Czech Republic - uplne miluju lidi a taky zeme, ale jenom mluvim trochijku protoze to jazyk je opravdu tezke ). And, WOW, it’s got an integration for PGP as well as mail tracking!
Only being able to sync notes added to IMAP mails is missing …
And this is an absolute must-have, most likely not only for us but for quite a few people. As an example: We receive phone calls as mp3 as well as transcript via mail; if we call people back, we add whatever was talked about on the phone to the notes; also follow-ups, To Dos etc.
The extension mentioned above can do that. BUT: Not with Sonoma. This is why they now develop a standalone mail client, that will handle IMAPs as well as the old functionalities of tagging, note sync and so on.
Now, I know an eventual sync of notes to IMAP mails cannot be saved on the IMAP server itself. This is why the extension uses it’s own sync server.
Can I kindly suggest maybe considering this as a possible feature for eM Client? I can only imagine the work and logistics this would mean, but this would be the absolute killer feature that would blow all other mail apps for Mac out of the water. The other company announced their own standalone mail client for “end of the year” - this was on their page last year as well as this year, so who knows if this will even happen or if it was just too much work after all.
I’m sure you have your eyes on the market already, but maybe this feedback from an user-perspective is helpful.
Thanks for your great product and I hope this feature will eventually be integrated so we can be happy (and gladly paying) customers,
Olli
