What email client do you use, and do you love it?

Question

I currently use Superhuman. I like it much more than gmail. Saw Shortwave a while back, checked out their website today and it looks quite appealing. Anyone using and loving Shortwave (excluding friends of the company)? Anyone using any other email clients that they love?

Evolution.I use it for work with my Google Work account, and on my personal machine with my imap provider. Aliases, PGP, autobcc, virtual folders + labels, calendaring, tasks, multiple accounts, ...I use imap custom labels (flags) + virtual folders and also use imapfilter to automatically add labels based on conditions (can write more complex stuff using lua). I really wish more clients supports imap custom labels. I am a zero inbox person, so its really important to be able to quickly and easily label things.Invitations + Calendars all work well which is important for work.As a heavy emacs user, I have considered emacs+mu4e. I think it'd work fine for my personal/side business, but I just don't think it work well for my work, as calendaring is critical.

Thunderbird. The encryption is OK. The UI feels a bit outdated though.
