Great email client, no doubt. Needs a few little finishing touches to be just perfect. One note is that before you import mail from Apple Mail, make sure you rebuild every local mail box. Not doing so will mean that some messages don't get imported. Some needed features are:

1) Need to be able to right-click on messages and move to folder

2) Need to be able to change fonts, text sizes, text colors, and add emoticons from message window

3) Need integrated backup utility...though I will say that Email Backup Pro does a nice job of this

4) Need to be able to hide folders in folder pane when using IMAP

This is a very full-featured and user-friendly email app. Definitely worth the money.

GyazMail has become my primary email client. It just plain works.

Nothing negative to say thus far. Awesome app!

EXCELLENT!!!

I've been looking for at least 5 years for a good quick mail client, and had to drag around with PowerMail (because Mail.app was too sluggish and couldn't handle 100000+ mails, and couldn't handle mail aliases). PowerMail handles aliases just fine, but there's no find-in-this-email feature; besides, it has its flaws.

Yesterday I discovered GiazMail, and I've been mean to it all morning (for 8 hours now), and it seems rock solid and quite quick.
The developers definitely did a very, very good job. It's much more usable than Mail.app!!

Just an update: GyazMail works very well with secure connections. I've set up qmail with TLS and AUTH, and GyazMail works flawlessly.
I wish I could put better words on how much I like this new mail client. To anyone reading this: I recommend trying it out, and you're probably sold immediately!
I just tried setting up an IMAP server (using Dovecot), and it works as well.

in comparison to all other mail clients on the market (tested most of them but not all, of course), GyazMail seems pretty much the best (features, ease of use, stability, customizability).

If i only could get IMAP to work !!! (Apple Mail sends and gets new IMAP mail for a sample account - so, the serverside settings seem to be ok).
In the prefs i created the new account for IMAP but no access happens.
Has anybody successfully been using IMAP with GyazMail ?

I just tried setting up an IMAP server (qmail+vpopmail+Dovecot+SquirrelMail with TLS and AUTH), and it works with GyazMail.
This is what I did in GyazMail:
New accont: IMAP.
Fill in all the account info.
Click the Receive 'tab', click Require secure connection (SSL), use STARTTLS (not Alternate port), keep port checkbox unchecked (using port 143).

I receive the messages, see them in SquirrelMail and see them in the GyazMail inbox.
When sending through my server, the sent message appears in my 'sent' folder in SquirrelMail (WebMail).
-So you should be able to get IMAP working if you can use a secure connection.

indeed, there is no doubt, it works and GyazMail establishes itself after trying any number of competitors as the needle in the hay stack

With some small configurations and tweaks it becomes a very good (and in some cases a better) alternative to the king of MUAs: Eudora (RIP). Solid rock. Handles 2GB of 100,000 mails (POP) without any problem. The functions I miss most from Eudora is the ability to change the Subject on incoming mail and the ability to only keep the mail and not the enclosed files in the box. Very impressive creation of a single developer. And you can't beat the price (other that free that is).

I sure am glad my Inbox doesn't look like the one in the screenshot!

I keep HTML & remote images disabled by default for security, and then enable them manually from the View menu when reading mail from known sources.

When I come upon mail from an unknown sender, or in the Junk/Spam box I close the window ⌘w (cmd+w) and then open a new window ⌥⌘n (opt+cmd+n) before getting to the questionable image. This automatically switches the settings back to html & remote images disabled instead of having to do it manually.

I hope this application is still under active development. It seems like very nice alternative: lightweight, speedy and powerful. Just what I expect for an email client.

Don't give up hope, it's only been a year and that's not too bad for a 3rd party developer with a mature, functional product. Writing and debugging code is a slow, tedious process, especially if the developers are a team of one.

Unfortunately, it seems the developer has no plans to add any features anytime soon. I contacted him back in 2004, asking when he intended to add Spotlight support. He told me it would be by the end of the Summer. Here we are in January 2012 and still no Spotlight support.

I emailed him again a few months ago asking this:

"Can you give me a bit of hope that GyazMail will see a 2.0 someday?"

The developer's reply was:

"For some reasons, the development has been delayed.
(The plan and the schedule for the future are still undecided, sorry.)"

It's a shame. I really wish he was putting some effort into GyazMail, as I still find it to be the best email software around, but it's biggest weakness is lousy search functionality. I wish the developer would get that implemented, at least.

I'm an old time Eudora fan, still using it today under 10.6.4. Painfully, over time, one realizes that Eudora is not coming back, and that the stability on the latest OS versions is going down. Yes, it is still usable, but no longer 100% reliable as it has been for all those years (since 1992!!! I was 12 ...)

So I have been looking at all the email possibilities out there for mac. GyazMail being one of them, herewith my findings after a week of use on 100293 messages, 24703 attachments and 1.47 GB of space.

Let there be no mistake:: NO, Gyazmail is not like Eudora. It is (much) slower in search, it does not have an as complete and detailed feature set as Eudora, and I do miss some features that good old Eudora had. GyazMail is developed by 1 guy only, in his sort of hobby time, while Eudora used to be developed full time by so many professional developers. So YES, it is a downgrade from Eudora.

BUT!!! It is as stable as Eudora used to be. I mean, rock solid stable. I have been throwing numerous email problems at GyazMail over the past few days, and it goes through them as a Gentleman.

It operates in about 50 MB of RAM. Eudora does it in roughly 100 MB RAM and Mail or thunderbird ... don't even go there, we need to add a 0 at the end to start making sense. Impressively small application.

It does have some features that Eudora did not have accessible in a user friendly way. I loved the GUI of Eudora, and while GyazMail is very different, it is an improvement to me.

After these few days comparing usage between clients, and having to realize that I am downgrading in speed and a few cosmetic features, I am confident that I will keep GyazMail for the foreseeable future, using it both for my personal and business email needs. Thumbs up for GyazMail!

Is there a way to see mutiple recipients in the
"To:" field? (Or the Cc or Bc fields, fo that matter.)
I can input multiple addresses, but after 3 or so they are no longer visible. I bought this program and really like everything else about it, but the ability to see the list of multiple recipients seems to be a standard feature in other browsers.
