I use Postbox for years now for business. I'd loved the simple and plain interface and to sort my mails with topics. I have always been happy till I got the feeling the app is sluggish. There have been some strange issues too I learned to live, like that sometimes if you change from on topic view to another, Postbox simply shows nothing. Got this to work with restarting the App. This failure hasn't solved for several updates ... :/
Now what I am really unhappy about is the sluggishness of the app. So I started to observe the app and found that it is really hungry and takes a lot of Ram. Up to 1 GB (I have 6 Mailaccounts with thousends of Emails). BUT than I tried a different Mailapp (Spark) with the same configuration and the whole app doesn't take at least a third of what Postbox takes. And as you can think, Sparks run smooth and incredible fast.
Since a few days now I run Spark daily and I can feel a new routine establishing. I am not in love with Spark and I would love to get back to Postbox. But for this to happen, please Postbox, make your app smooth, fast and not this hungry. Maybe we can get together again...
UPDATE: Now I changed from 3 stars to 1 because of the worst support experience I'd ever had...
