Neil Jhaveri, on Mimestream’s blog:

Mimestream combines the power of macOS with Gmail’s advanced features for a new kind of email client that lets you move through your email effortlessly. Unlike other email clients that use the decades-old IMAP protocol, Mimestream uses the Gmail API for a new kind of lightning-fast experience that’s full of features. Built using the latest technologies from Apple, using Mimestream is a breath of fresh air that you’ll see and feel.

I feel like many, if not most third party email clients that have come out in recent years took the approach of trying to reinvent email. They never appealed to me because I didn’t want to reinvent email. I just wanted a great email client. Mimestream is a great email client. If you and/or your work use Gmail, Mimestream is a no-brainer and is an absolute steal at $30 a year.
