I've been trying mail.app and have come to the conclusion that I'd stick with T-Bird. I do love the option in mail.app to copy and reply, this gives a clean response page, allowing you to respond to a single or many lines from an e-Mail, discarding the rest which won't show up in your response. I wish someone can write a plugin that puts this feature in T-bird. At times I tell mail.app to get new mail and it just sits there. Restarting it always work though...but...really?
