Mac Net Journal: MailSmith 1.5.1 - Now we're talking

- I have downloaded and am planning to spend some time over the next day or two to evaluate MailSmith 1.5.1 - the e-mail client from Bare Bones Software. From first glance, it appears to offer all of the power and flexibility of Eudora under OS X, but with a much more compact and attractive user interface. The user interface still needs improvements - the windows are large and too clunky, for instance - but I suspect that the marriage of a decent user interface with the intelligent filtering and search capabilities that you would expect from the makers of the fine BBEdit text editor.

Still digging... [Mac Net Journal]

[Good golly Miss Molly! This upgrade covers a lot of ground which isn't indicated by the tiny increment in the version number.]
