Sounds like I should look into this. The best mail client I’ve ever used was Eudora. How I miss Eudora.

>> While there are still lots of things to fix, it works well enough to get most of my reading, writing and organizing of emails done. What I like most about having my emails in Squeak is how fast I can adapt things. For example, I have an extension for my email reader which checks the sender of an email and if the email comes from students it shows me the groups they are in. Building that extension took me about 10 minutes (mostly UI work).

This way I can have objects for every email in my image and at the same time quickly access the content of most emails. If anyone is interested in setting this up for themselves I am happy to help.
