Regretful farewell - Version: 6.0.2, 3/31/2009 04:25AM PST

I've used PowerMail since they EOL'ed 'Emailer' - that's a good few years. But I've now had to walk away from it, in favour of Apple's 'Mail.' I've gotten so tired of the length of time PowerMail takes to load, patchy IMAP support, vestigial HTML support (yes, I prefer plain text, too - but the times they are a' changing), the weird attempts at synchronization with Apple's 'Address Book' and the inadequate user guide. This email client used to rock - and seems still to be only one capable of using a single database for multiple users. The overhead just got too high - sorry guys.

I've used PowerMail for years and am very pleased with its speed, search functions and ease of use. 6.02 adds some neat capabilities.

Long time user and a very satisfied one.
Most of all, the best search function I have seen yet
The application IS updated regularly and the feature set is not bloated by unnecessary functions.

Now I must admit that the imap support and the price are questionable
