Outlook doesn't work correctly with IMAP.  It's not a matter of auto-hate, but since Microsoft leverages their semi-monopoly to edge out competition, their products will sometimes neglect to remain current with industry standards.

 Same goes for Apple, though they have less of a platform to leverage in terms of email.

 Not moralizing here, it's just how things are.  Outlook is a terrible email client for gmail. Mac's Mail.App is decent.  On Mac, Mailplane is good, but costs money.  Thunderbird works fine for most things.

I also use a web based one. However, I see the possibilities that Thunderbird offers. Instead of opening a new window/tab to read your email, just click on the Thunderbird icon. However, you also have to deal with another window anyway.

eM ClientBest Email Client For Gmail

I use eM Client for about a year. Everything you need is just fill in your gmail credentials and your gmail account is set. It allows you to synchronize contacts and calendars and also integrates google jabber. I also love the communication and attachment history = no search needed. Well, it's not for free if you want more than 2 e-mail accounts, but for 49 bucks it definitely worth it.

email clientBest Email Client For GmailReplying to BitShiftI am otherwise ok with a web-based client. But (silly enough reason) I want a client whose icon I can identify among my umpteen browser windows (on mac). Also, it'd be good to have off-line access to email. And I am talking about only my gmail account. So, mailplane may be an alternative, except it costs money. Any other advice?
