Of course I would love to see a full featured email client in there
as well but the realist in me says that probably is not possible. I
envision continued enhancement to the current plan of mail
providing a gateway to bringing in and sharing data in Chandler
with out fully replacing ones standalone mail client.
Ultimately, though, the gateway approach is limited (especially since
it relies on IMAP, whose usage is currently dwarfed by POP and/or
webmail IIRC). Since email is so central to "information work", a
question to ask is: What further email support (if any) do we need to
have to convince users (@ funding expiration) that there's a hope of
us integrating email at some point?
If the answer is "None", then maybe we can get away with only luring
in new users with nice shiny features(*) on top of Preview.

(*) nice and shiny on the outside, at any rate :)
