I think it's great and the best out there, though not perfect, as is
with all applications. :-)

Many like myself find it a Godsend and love TB! for this. It offers me
the flexibility of using TB! across virtual desktops. TB! is non-MDI
while Eudora is MDI. I never did find an MDI interface for e-mail
management to be good but only restrictive and I disliked Eudora and
Pegasus Mail for this. It's interesting that when you're accustomed to
something how another style can be cumbersome. TB! is a different
universe and adapts different styles and approaches from the other
mainstream apps. This is a good thing. It creates choice.

Should the developers add the ability of toggling from an MDI type to a
non-MDI type interface? IMO, it would add unnecessary bloat. Most apps
adopt one interface. TB! has chosen a more flexible non-MDI.

No. The editor window cannot be integrated into the main window.
